What do you thinks about this composition?

[rafaelega]

This is my actual scene with confederate soldiers. At this time I wonder about the next steps for to complete it. I am sure that the next step will be to complete the tree leaves and a final wash for the tree.

But what do you think about the groundwork? I was thinking about to put some grass on. Please let me know your oppinion.

I am sorry for the bad pics. I hope this will be enough to see the final composition.

Hey rafaelega, I like your work! Especialy the tree, it look's very natural, I think. The Groundwork is fine too, but I would put some leave on it.

Elian!

looks great

Great scene, very dramatic. The positioning of the figures engages the viewer and makes it very attractive. I don't know about the grass. What time of year is this supposed to be? Looks a bit like Autumn or late summer.

All the best,
Dan

... Well that looks good ! As for your question about the groundwork, I suggest adding some Hudson & Allen "Forest Litter".

Hola Rafa a mi me gusta bastante la composicion, no se si ya tienes listas las rocas pero yo le daria algunos lavados para oscurecer un poco mas y no se vean grisaseas, quizas oscureser mas en su parte baja con un color parecido al que tienes en el suelo e ir aclarando hasta la parte superior de las rocas, luego un poco de pincel seco para aclarar aristas, de resto todo me parece bien
Sigue con el buen trabajo.....

Definitely add some grass. I'd add soem tall grass and shrubs in areas like around the tree and the boulder in the ground. Some forest litter would work good to. The positioning of the figures is very good.

Great work rafa.. the scene defenately needs some grass.. also fallen leafs would be great.

Ernest, tenía pensado dar un lavado oscuro tanto al árbol como a las rocas

Gracias por tu apreciación.

Elian, Thanks for your kindly comments.
Yes perhaps I will put some leaves on the ground.

Matthew, Thanks for your comments

Dan, thanks a lot. Yes, this is late summer-beginning Autumn. Indeed I am painting the tree leaves in several types of green, from Olive green to yellow-green. Just in the moment previous to Fall (then few leaves on the ground).

Johan, thanks a lot for you comments too. I appreciate your reference to H&A "Forest Litter". I do not know this product but I think it is very usefull.

Regards,

Rafa

Gray,

Excellent material. Thanks a lot.
Yes I am going to add some ball holes. Also I model a cup and I must decide where to put it.

Also some leaves and branches will be nice.

Regards,

Rafa

John, Xenofon,

Thanks a lot for your comments.
Yes I will add some Grass (perhaps taller beside the tree and rocks and smaller in some places on the ground beside i.e. the roots)....

Regards,

Rafa
