Okay, not that this picture would be finished, but I dont have the mood to play with it anymore, so I'll just put it up here and see what happens.
A wannabe-response to :userreptilecynrik:'s [link] in terms of lighting and stuff. Well, maybe I got already to 1/4 performance as it should have been. But thats my fault since I used only one lightsource o.O
Other than that, the story in this picture is (again) from the last Esertosian-Human war in 2206 from the fights in Yok. In the window you can see the VTP Rozsutec-T tank, whilst the soldier in the foreground wields a PZ-5 UG machine gun.
Finally, watch the sun and atmoshpere. I dare to say its the best I made so far
Edit: Done with only a mouse (and a crappy ref. sketch) in photoshop.
that looks interesting! It sorta looks more reallistic due to the lack of lineart in it, which is great! On a more matterialistic critique, judging by the rifle muzzle, I don't think a straight bipod would withstand the kickback on a .50 BMG
Like I said... PHOTOSHOP is your tool of trade!!!! Very nicely done and I love that gloomy, dark, cold, lost atmosphere!! The picture is very dark, but there is one proplem (not about the picture, though): I cannot really suggest to look at it here on DA!!! The outline of this website is too bright. I suggest, people should save the picture and watch it in FULL VIEW SCREEN MODE! And then.... wooooooow! Very nice. Even the second soldier in the background is visible then. Overall, a very nice mood, great setting and realistic choice of colours. I did not really WANTED you to "pick up the gauntlet", but you did!! And you made the best of it. ^..^ A worthy and great counterpart. And your picture tells a very intense story. That is your "artistical future", I think.... at least, it is a wonderful piece.

Personally I think the lighting suits this picture, afterall the sniper IS hiding so the picture would look contradicting to the scenario if it was brighter. I'm just wondering where the spotter is*. Teivos probably knows what I mean. Anyhoo, awsome picture! DON'T CHANGE IT!!! It suits it's purpose as-is.

Reminds me of BattleField 1942, when I'd hide inside the houses and sniper people down from the third story windows. Oh how people hate it when you do that.
A very solemn picture, this one. The lighting is good, but seems as though it could use a little more... uhm... what's the word... I dunno. Could be a little more brighter, more obvious. If that's what I mean. I think I mean it.
Still love it, though. As usual, fantastic work on positions and body structure.
First off, everyone here at deviantART would like to say THANK YOU!!! We have received an overwhelming amount of enthusiasm for the launch of version 6 and believe that this has been our best-received launch to date.
You might even be one hell of a profesional, but if you don't SHOW it and PROVE it, how will everyone know? These facts are important not only when you are looking for a job, but in any situation when you wish to showcase your work. I decided to share a few guidelines that might help you give the best of yourself and help you be a better profesional.
`karemelancholia is one of the most genuine deviants you could ever met. Always active and a true deviantART cheerleader and supporter in every aspect. You can always count on her to lend a hand or get involved, and you usually will find her doing large amounts of both at any given moment. She's consistently reports on contests around dA, showcases the efforts of her fellow artists and shows her charitable side through various activities. Besides all of this, she's a truly talented artist which is why she's an obvious choice for deviousness this month. Read More

*pokes him in the head*
Is there meant to be more than one (implied by the plural) or is there only one?
