Screenshot Critique, Please read first post Options

[kayden997]

So, your first reaction might be "WHAT? IT'S BACK," or "Don't we have a thread for this," or somewhere in between.
Allow me to explain.
As you may have heard, the old screenshot thread was taken down due to people not posting actual advice on another's work. Now I know some would love to 'receive' actual advice so I thought we should see how this would work out the second time over.

Titan hasn't been around lately to moderate the Screenshot Showoff thread. Most of you should know that it's a place where you can post your finer work for others to look at. But some don't want to show off their work without the typical "how does this look." leading to the next person critiquing. That means that he/she is not done it but needs advice in order to "be" done.
The purpose of that thread is to show your best to the people who come to look for inspiration from the very best; you. But how can they be sure it's the very best if they realize you just said "does this look good here," and thus has to read the next post to find out the solution.

The main purpose of this is to post your maps you believe needs a second look before finalizing. Anything theory based, create a topic for it.

If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message detailing your concern

So what do we do now? How do we get our advice?
Simple, the Screenshot Critique thread.

Here you can post your maps, battles, title pages, anything in-game related you believe needs advice. Post what should be done next or ask for recommendations on something.
What are the rules?
- You must post critique to the previous image before you post your own.
- Posting an image is optional, but you must post critique (no chit chat, PM each other).
- All other forum rules apply

Last words: this is only a test to see how far we can go without breaking the rules. If all goes well... it's here to stay.

And remember, spoiler boxes for big images.

Well I think the hallway is a bit too wide, but that could just be my taste. Also, the rug could look like it's actually going through the door. Ya'know, Left Shift the rug at the doorway, and for the wooden floor, it look too repeated. The right side of the wood tile is brighter then the one on the left side. So you can tell it look like a repeated tile. Also, some pictures or something on the wall.

Overall, looking good.

I remade the living room and learned how to do parallax/overlay, so I can add my own lights and shadows. So is it better from my last image? Also, which version of lighting for a house is better?

Darken lighting with the RBG setting are -20?


Or normal lighting, nothing touched?

The darker one looks too dark for my taste and the lighter one looks bland in color maybe darken it just a little? Maybe make it only -10 to -15 I'm not really sure but I gotta say that interior looks Perfect... ummm have you tried the auto correct option in Microsoft Office Picture Manager cause it kind of strengthens the color a bit but it's just my suggestion. I hope I helped

What is the tileset you used by the way?
