Haemophages and other cutscenes..., (Need a feedback!!!) Options

[Jens of Zanicuud]

Hi everyone,

I'll treat this topic as a sort of "garbage collector" in which I'll post some of my game's cutscenes / pictures in order to get some feedback.
At the moment I need some feedback about this.

You are free to give feedback about the old pictures, but I'd like to know something about the newer one

Thanks in advance

I'm working at Tryadine Effect Project by November 2011, but never really designed how Haemophages (i.e. monsters which appears in the game) could look like.
A couple of days ago, I was hitten by an idea and drawn this creature.
1.

[Show/Hide] Haemophage

Then, I wasn't satisfied and slightly edited it.
2.

[Show/Hide] Haemophage (reissue)

What do you think of the picture? What was the best one between the two?
I'd really appreciate to receive some comment...

I had some problem too with Day 3 ending cutscene.
In your opinion, what's the best picture between those three:

1.

[Show/Hide] Drawn with Paint.NET, coloured with Paint.NET

2.

[Show/Hide] Drawn by hand, coloured with Paint.NET

3.

[Show/Hide] Edited Cutscene

Thanks in advance,

Jens

Hmm... this is getting complicated, but i'll try to keep it simple still. x~x ><

In this case, you'd still do shading, but the shading would be less prominent-- think of looking at a lightbulb. The reason for this is because you still have the lightsource coming from the bottom-right + the bio-luminescence is weak; therefore, your eye would still be able to pick up some of its form.

[Show/Hide] .

However, you'd want to make the creases of skin near/on the bio-luminescence darker. And where the main source + bio-luminescene lights clash; this is because multiple light sources reduce the gradation-- or variety of shades-- you see.
Keep in mind again though that the further an object is from a light source, the weaker the light becomes. The arms should therefore have a stronger back light compared to the leg on the right.


You're welcome btw. i hope this helped as well... >< ^^ i'm rly thrilled you're learning from me, lol. (!) Just take it simple.
