NIGHTFALL -Wip - Critique if you want.

@CLCanadyArts I think the colors are perfect! The smart use of complementary colors on her dress and saddle make her pop and yet are harmonious with the pinks and purples. Beautiful!
Edit: The phoenix's lower leg looks a little lost/blurry.

@chrisaakins Thanks. Yet to flesh out the legs, or much anything really. They are definitely lost right now. Will be adding some shadowing to them.
Glad you like the gold next to turquoise, bounced around on the dress color choice for awhile. I'll be adding some gold glint to the saddle and staff, hopefully without overbaking it. -
I think it's overall working really well!
My only concern would be that the pheonix is getting a little lost with the value range?
I just adjusted the bird, but you can play with it.

@carlianne I just saved a wip. Thoughts? I like what you did though. Thank you.
Also just saw your reply, was 2 days ago. Where have I been? Might have taken this your direction had I seen it. -
The darker phoenix goes nicely with the hair too.
-
@CLCanadyArts I think it works now! If you want to change it you can try just doing a levels adjustment layer with a mask. But I think the values are reading ok
-
@CLCanadyArts I love the colors!
I just have a few thoughts going on in my head. Feel free to ignore them please since I'm not too sure about them myself.
-
The background of the town - there is a distinct sharpness to the houses and a blurriness to all the trees (including the tress on the hills). Is that on purpose? Since all the other lines are sharp, this blurriness is throwing me a little off.
-
Maybe try omitting the blue glow where the phoenix overlaps the moon? I would think the glow wouldn't be seen against the bright white moon.
Your level of detailing is amazing! And I love the font selection and the way you've placed it in the starry night. Good luck!

I love her hair!

@Neha-Rawat Good thoughts. I kept the glow as it's colored magic, but yeah, it probably would not be visable, or at least barely.
The blur was on purpose as the small trees/hills are far away, maybe I should lessen it a bit, and blur the far away houses a tad to make more sense.
Thank you!
