Decided to do a personal piece and thought I'd get some feedback before I cut it up :D |

@CC Great color change! My main critique is to look at lighting. Your horse currently has a very strong shadow, indicating that the light source is behind the horse. Because of this, the side of the horse the viewer can see should be much darker.
. @Breezie This is beautiful! Love the atmosphere and mane especially. I would just take a look at the muzzle. Most of the horse is very defined but the muzzle doesn't seem to have the same definition.
. @SDK SO cute!!!! I really like this piece. If you ever plan on selling, let me know <3 Just give the foal a very slight gold tint and perfect! |

@Jumper That hair turned out nicely! White markings-wise, I reccomend first adding a new layer. Make it a clipping layer to the horse's layer. Use a white brush to draw out the markings you want on the horse When you're satisfied with that, change the markings layer to Soft Light. Duplicate the layer and/or mess with the opacity of it until satisfied with the brightness of the markings. . @SDK This piece needs a bit of lighting work. I can tell that in the orginal photo of the foal, the sun was shining on its left (the viewer's right). In this image though, the sun should be shining on its rump and back from behind. Use overlay layers to help get the highlights where they should be and use darker shades to overall get the shadows. I can tell that you lowered the contrast of the foal to try to get it to blend but doing that detracts from the definition of the foal itself. Increase the contrast and the saturation of the foal to help it blend better. Last thing, the foal should have a shadow coming towards the viewer due to the direction of the sun. . @Wintergreen If you ever decide to sell/auction this piece, please let me know. I love, LOVE it!!! Beautiful mane, very smooth body prep. Only thing I'd say is give it a shadow because there is a vsible light source. |
