Hey @Júlio Kronemberger! Thanks for sharing! I did a paintover just to see how it would look if I bumped up the contrast. You have a nice structure with the harsh lighting, but I felt it could use more highlights to pull out that extra dimensionality. In some cases that meant darkening an area such as the eyes or forehead so that the light would pop more. This helped with the metal and facial hair rendering. Especially for metal- adding those bright values really start to bring out the material. Depending on how you treat the highlight you can create a variety of metal qualities. I think your material actually worked as a nice matte metal but I wanted to showcase how much variety you can get in the armor without it being too distracting. Sometimes I'll leave messy strokes in the painting just for visual interest- but you can also utilize each paint stroke to indicate directionality. This helps with things like armor to emphasize the different pieces or plane shifts of the form. Adding a touch of light to the fabric was more consistent with the lighting. And I think popping out the velvet helps frame the face a little better. Other than that, I love the expression and the little bat engraving you added. And as said before, I really like the light structure you designed! Great work!
