Crimson Maiden

Here is my entry to Final Earth Zero a contest in deviantart.com. It was done in only 11 days and 10 nights(sleepless). This was a little bit rushed and I have deviated a lot to my original concept. Also the effects was not fine tuned. She is also supposed to have a long hair and be more like a rebel princess turned knight/warrior/crusader, it was because of her tragic past. There are many elements that are off in the image, sorry for that, it was such a rush finishing this. I happy with the speed of my modeling though.

The result were out today and sadly I did not make to the 25 semi-finalist, I'm kinda feel bad about it(hehe sorry for the attitude), so I'm posting to at least be criticized or appreciated.

the armor looks familiar. kinda like the same ones in RF Online. (Cora Mystic)

I don't know, haven't played RF online.

comment ko lang eh yung head, akala ko lalake. actually kamukha ng avatar mo din. yung katawan din mejo masculine kung di lang merong boobs. tapos yung shoulder armor nya din tinakpan yung feminine shoulder at arms. mas maganda sana kung mas feminine yung overall na itsura.

nice work sir a galing ng textures.. for me i dont care if the design already existed basta u did a good work on this one sir..

Whats crison?

Yup medyo lalaki ang proportion ng head. I think you need to edit that a little more.

Thanks guys, sorry for the title, it's crimson maiden. Crimson meaning deep red.

above comments aside, I dig the level of detail in your character and the way you presented it. That shoulder pad and arm guard kick ass . The puple orange sphere thing on the weapon looks awesome as well.

Hmmm it seems your level of detail would work better on toei's titles (Dynasty Warriors, Warriors Orochi) than Square Enix's.

@nahumreigh, Thanks.

by the way, most of the time I'm comparing my work to other we'll known digital artist to find out or check how much I have grown.So far I'm happy with my modeling skills, and fairly good with the texture and posing.

Now my problem is on lighting and rendering, most of the time I noticed that my renders lacks dimension, and lighting. Though my creations is in 3d it always seem flat and lacks certain kind of feeling. Example is what I posted "The Crimson Maiden" compared to the renders from Square Enix. Any comments on that, I want to improve on that aspect.
