Office Background

[Raider]

This is a BG for the mafia thug. I fear the perspective is off 
I also don't know what to do with the shading.

[Ishmael]

Hmmm... yeah, the coffeetable on the left looks a bit out of perspective... it's legs, actually. The making the front legs shorter...

[Abisso]

The gun and ammos seem flat, and I insist that some shading is required.
And the photo needs some background.
The desk would be better if the horizontal lines were straight.

Apart from this, not a bad BG. And the perspective is wrong, but just a bit. And so this is not disturbing at all (the little table seems lower in the distance than it should be).

[Raider]

I knew it. Thanks, the coffee table was annoying me and I didn't know what was wrong with it.
I'll fix now.

[skw]

Huh... I don't know why, but at the first look it reminded me a scene from "Prisoner of Ice". Strange.

Everything looks a bit flat at this picture. As I always say... try adding some lightning (let's say a moon light) from the outside and some shadows inside the office. Something is wrong with perspective as well (look at those buldings behind the window). Blah, blah, blah

[RyRayer]

I edited that gun.

[Raider]

Okay.
- I took the table out and replaced it with a plant.
- Added shadows
- Added light on wall


What do you think?Ã, 

[EDIT]------
Improved.

[Mozesh]

Looks better, the plant looks a bit dead though and the shading of the desk is different from the shading of the plant and the light doesn't seem to have much effect on the wall.

[hedgefield]

Quick n dirty edit:

If the plant were in good health it's leaves would point upward.
Shading on all objects. Look at the trajectory of the light.

[Mozesh]

Thats looking quite good there Largo P.

[skw]

Oh, very nice edit, Largo!

Hmm... I'm vaguely astonished of that armchair behind the desk. Isn't it too big? (arms are situated too higher). Or isn't the desk too small? I'm only nitpicking.

Anyway, it's quite cool, to see you improving that bg...

[aussie]

Curtains?

[Raider]

Okay,



- Fixed lighting
- Added curtains
- Added glow on desk lamp
- Put in more shadows
- Reflection on window added

The thing is, I'm not happy with the glow on the desk lamp. But I don't know what to change. Any suggestions?

Largo's paint-over is a good example.

[RyRayer]

Yeah, and Largo has more realistic reflection on window too. I like his shadings too.

[Mozesh]

We all like largo's paint over
About the curtains, they look a bit to wobbly to me.
(damn english )

[Abisso]

I agree that Largop edit is he best, but still I think that the doc's picture needs a background (is it a photo made in front of a bordeaux screen?).

And another thing I noticed is that either the window has no glass at all, or it's a very huge one! In fact the glass (if ther's one) seems to be as wide as the wall (which instead is quite thin, for a building wall).
The thing is less noticeable with the curtains, but still the glass seem too wide.
I suggest including it in the wall's width (with my english I can't explain this properly).

Other things are the curtain's shading and the lamp's glow (just remove it).

[RyRayer]

I think that picture doesn't need no background, because it won't be suitable for office then IMO. Or just change it to white.

[skw]

What about that glass, Abisso... why just don't draw it?:



Hope I've understood you well.

[Abisso]

Perfectly! 

I didn't draw it cause I use Internet from my university, and there they don't have Painting programs (apart from Paint, which maybe in this situation would have been enough).
