      @Holumpa thanks for the feedback! I thought about that, but a lot of the bottom part of the camel I think is going to be obstructed by the storm, which is why didn’t do much in terms of his legs, but I could play with maps more and maybe whisps of camel hair. Thanks again

          Its a crazy feeling to almost completely cover up a picture you just finished, what are your thoughts? Is it too much, did I lose out most of my details?

            I’m thinking of adding a bird of some sort to the upper left corner, a falcon or ibis?

              @Asyas_illos Wow this is so cool, I can really see and feel that sand blowing. Great job!

                  @Asyas_illos A sandstorm! What a cool idea. Love how this looks. I don't think it's too much. Definitely feels like sand moving swiftly through the air.

                          Does the falcon sit well or does he convolute the story? I was just trying to show the difference in the air (in case it wasn’t obvious lol) and the thickness below

                                  @Asyas_illos I think because of all the white surrounding the falcon, he's become the focal point.

                                    @AngelinaKizz thanks for the feedback maybe if I darken her hair it’ll bring the attention back down to her…?

                                        @Asyas_illos beautiful job rendering the sandstorm!

                                        What is your intended focal point?

                                        For me, the falcon draws attention -- why is he there? What does he add to the story?

                                        Because you have 4 characters in each of the 4 corners, they're competing for attention. If you intend that the woman be the main character, because she's the smallest, you may need to put her in the darkest colors so that she will stand out. right now the camel and sphynx draw more attention than she does, because of their value, size, and because the sphynx is above the sandstorm.

                                        That's how I'm seeing it, anyways. Hope this feedback is helpful.

                                        Again, great piece!

                                          @Asyas_illos what if you put a bit more tension on the falcon and flipped him to flying against the wind? You would keep the air change feel, have more of a triangle between your characters (minus the pharaoh).

                                            So the falcon is definitely not needed to tell the story I was just thinking it was lacking something I tried one more spot for him but I can remove him altogether if it doesn’t work what do you guys think?
