@tcmpinheiro Nice job on your “made you look” character render! The gold reads very well; very believable. Do you have a HDRI environment in the scene? It looks like the gold is only reflecting the lamps and a blue-ish color. That’s my only note, that I’d like to see more sings of an environment in the reflections. But it’s a small note honestly. You’ve earned an A in my book.
I really like the source image you chose to match. It’s a very appealing presentation. Unfortunately your shield – though I’m glad to see you did that tutorial! – is a pretty big disconnect from the source context (character). That makes it difficult to A) setup matching light and B) discern how much it matches in the end. I can see that your background is slightly more greenish in color and i don’t see much evidence of a blue fill light coming from the left like I do in the source. Overall it’s a B from me.
Solid work overall. One more week – keep it up!
