Fantastic. This one really grabs me.

 

[GAR]

I love it!

 

[supervike]

Excellent!

You have captured mood and character...the two things I think are the most important.

Your best work to date!

 

[finn17]

Brilliant!

Very...err... French?

Great stuff but it looks like the light bulb isnt painted. Did the vote thing.

That\'s a very atmospheric piece of miniature art. Nicely done.

Aaaaarghl, looks like I very stupidly forgot to do the lightbulb. Worst part is that I had been thinking about how to paint it up I\'ll do that and repost the full view I guess Thanks for the heads up. And thanks for allt he comments

The only thing holding me back from giving you a 10 is that I don\'t understand all your lighting. It looks like you have the boy lit under a lamp post with the light coming from the bulb. But then you have highlights on top of the lamp shade and pole or is that just a reflection off your light rig for the photo?

Magnifique I have left a comment on the first one and voted on both.

That\'s a probleme I couldn\'t figure out. The light on top of the lampost is indeed from the light to take the pic. Couldn\'t figure out how to get rid of this short of painting it black.

You could consider that definitely.
The darkest thing in an OSL type piece is usually the shadow just underneath (or in your case just above) the lamp, because there is the most obvious contrast with the light.
