Warrior

[Inlite]

this is something Ive worked on/played with for about a week and Im at a bit of a loss, its not really supposed to be photo realistic but I feel its missing something and I cant work it out - Feel free to rip it up

the image is only rendered to about 300spp because if Im going to alter it I dont want to waste too much time rendering it up to high quality

I like the modeling on the wings and chain weapon a lot and I like the the figure on one level when I zoom in on it but at a glance the figure seems to rigid, I think the cave texture might be a problem also, maybe try it in the air? adding some kind of gesture to the figure maybe? The main thing I get is how the figure does not really seem to be connected to the wings. I do like the overall idea tho. Interesting problem, the wings being so big. you could try a different aspect ration, a very wide image and change how the chain works so we can see more of the figure itself?

Hello Inlite,
i have some ideas that maybe could help you out

1.First of all i would change the camera angle and the warriors pose. Cause atm it seems kinda frozen, more than a statue. So maybe a more dynamic camera angle and a striking pose. something like the image bellow

2.Secondly about the figure, to hide the skin you could add some armor plates

3.Maybe some motion blur on the "claw?" and focus on the warrior.

I guess thats all i though of for the main character and his weapon
