@ahmedc Really nice work this week. Such an interesting take on the goblin character. Love the crisp shadow in the background, the sharp rim light, as well as the story-telling angle you’ve injected.
You mentioned that you were trying to convey the goblin only has eyes for the candy, given that they’re sharing the same material. First, 2 thumbs up for trying that approach! I’m a big proponent of inject story into any and all renders. That immediately makes this one of the more memorable renders.
However while I did notice the candy and the eyes sharing the material initially, I did not deduce that message. I think because the material doesn’t seem to convey anything about candy specifically. However if the candy corn was textured like real candy corn and then the eyes shared that material, I think the message would be stronger.
Still, awesome job! It’s an A from me.
Your light match is super close as well. My only note is that I would recommend the bluish/white rim light to extend further around the top of the head, as suggested by the top of the headphones in the source. That’s a super minor note though. It’s another A from me.
