Yeah xD And you have two weeks in any case! My main concern with your piece is that while the warping does distort the view of it a little, the girl also is not on the same plane as the environment. I based my over sketch of your girl on the perspective she is in, so I modified the environment, you're going to have to distort your character a lot more to fit in the perspective you have currently! take it with a grain of salt though, and if you do want to work on the perspective so everything fits it's always better to do it in the early stages as it'll save you a lot of grief and wasted time later down the line when you actually come to fixing it
Ahh you have such a beautiful variety of colours here, the greens and slatey blues in those stones are really stunning! I am a little confused with that arrow head shadow on the floor though, that must be a really strong light source - but that light isn't showing on the rest of the piece yet (aside the shadows from it, although the pedestal is missing it) Unless you just haven't painting that on yet and I'm impatient lol
Oh yeah, thats going to be tricky.
I actually have a very good technique to add realistic lights to darker scenes and therefore drasticly changing the mood. The only things I need for that are some adjustment layers, some light rays made with point blur and lastly some ambient light.
But to use these, I'd first need to finish the overpainting which will happen in the upcoming days c:
That shadow is still confusing me, but the first one works best. If you're having the shadows caused by the fire though they're on the wrong plane and the lighting doesn't really match up (also just noticed the lantern in the top right, again the shadow of that ladder doesn't match with it)
I'm actually not sure what that phantom ladder shadow is being caused by lmao
