I’m not a vfx artist so I couldn’t say for sure but something that stands out is that the background feels to empty or dark. Unsure if it’s on purpose or not but from an average player’s point of view, it feels empty.

Yeah, the background is not final, just a temp. Nothing there atm

the character itself though looks good, great improvement from the first. Also feels like it better “Contextualizes” the red in the text. Before, the red felt kind of out of place but it’s better now. I have nothing more to say

im not an expert in gfx but it looks good, i dont have anything to say bad about it. About the background, you said that it’s work in progress, so i’ll not feedback about it, good job!

the after one is 5x times better than the one before.

It for sure, 100%, looks a lot better after the edit! Great job on this! How long did it take to create this GFX? I rate it 10/10! It’s similar to the reference picture!

Around 30 minutes for the editing and around 10 for the initial render
