:bulletred: character depth :bulletred:


Melio is an OC of my fictive world robinia. As the commander of the robinian army, extensive training is part of the job, and as you might see later, he is training every single part of his body ^.~ (suggestiveness intended). It was actually one of those training sessions, where he met his future wife, a stubborn princess eager to find a way of concentrating her anger and fury in something material... or as it is later revealed onto somebody material. I think I am in a mood of doing her portrait next, some exotic beauty waiting to be revealed ^-^

This picture has pushed me to so many limits you could almost say I don't have any talent at all, because the end result doesnt look that challenging xD I tried many new things on this artwork, background light settings, extreme depth of focus, SWEAT (not only on his body but also his tank top, which I tried to make slightly soaked and therefore transparent in some areas), coming to that tank top which (me being obsessed with this realistic style) of course had to be a rib jersey xD I really need to improve my speed, otherwise it will be really troublesome to provide the amount of pictures per month I challenged myself to. 
This piece was originally already finished since some weeks, but I was constantly troubled by the outcome. There were some very obvious parts that just didn't go the way I wanted combined with some troubles I made myself questioning the whole thing itself. So I pushed myself asking various people about their thoughts and some feedback, although I knew that there might come some very harsh critique when asking directly for it. I was kinda relieved that most of the feedback was very kind and positively helpfull, although there also had to be some very nasty ones, but I did my best to ignore those and trying to improve everything that was still possible. I have to say, I am very happy how he turned out in the end, and I am very happy I reworked him before uploading him and thanks again for all the people who gave me some really nice and constructive feedback :)

This is incredibly detail. I especially love the soft hues of the background. He texture on the human and foreshortening look quite good, but I think the upper to lower body ratio might be a little off as well as the curled fingers.
