Boring lighting (Seems like I need make it brighter) any tips on how to make it less BORING

There's nothing going on in the environment behind the character- it depends on what you're going for. If you made this in full to show off the character model, then you did a great job because that's all the viewer is going to be interested in. You have that flash in the background, cast hard white light onto the back of the model and maybe you'll get something interesting. Remove frontal lighting. Shield provides too much ugly screen space. Make the entire picture feel more alive.

 

[Heck]

might be able to give advice on the lighting if it wasnt black and white

it was actually criticism

no light is pure white. if all lights are white and you're working with a lot of grey things, the image looks colourless.

Doesn't mean he can't make his picture monochromatic.

Doesn't mean he can't make his picture monochromatic.

monochrome works well when you can imagine the colours yourself. use of blood in the image is a good example

he can do it, but it's clearly unintentional when one corner of the image has slight colour

1. shit meme
2. He's nowhere near a ugandan skin wise, they've got some really cool dark skin whilst that MGS5 skin is pretty light like Ethopia or Benin

 

[FieldersNL]

Oh it looks kinda messy, maybe cause of the scaling, aa. Should I turn the DoP off or turn it down a little? So the scaling and quality will remain the same at it's best.
