Lurkily Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I would say it needs more contrast. There's more detail, but that purple is overwhelming everything. Even with the detail, the purple makes it seem more washed-out than previously. It doesn't look look dark anymore, the purple is so bright it seems like it's lit by purple instead of dark. That said, again, it is more detailed; I think improvements have been made here, but they are undermined by other changes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jojo Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 The second one is very purple but there is more detail and depth which I really like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medicine cat Posted December 16, 2018 Author Share Posted December 16, 2018 the lit by purple thing was intentional, actually; i wanted to do that in the original, but couldnt figure out how. sort of like a vaporwave thing. i may come back later and retouch it, though, since maybe a few other colors would look nice with the purple too. thank you guys for the comments!! it really helps ;w; 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkily Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Vaporwave? The purple in the air, I think, is the part that needs the most adjustment. That's where it really crosses from 'unusual lighting' to 'washed out'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurkily Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Adding some shading (light purple on one side, dark purple on the other side, for the tree and the blades of grass) may do much more to convey lighting than the fog lighting does.
