It's true that you can learn a lot by improving other people's work, but still I do not feel good enough to do it. I follow the threads on this forum, but I still do not feel confident enough to write something intelligent in terms of other people's skills.  :-[ So far, I have worked a little over a picture of the tree-trunks according to your amendments.

Thank you for your edits. :)

Wow that's a great improvement in my opinion.
I can imagine myself into your scene much better than before.
Last thing I can see : You can maybe light a little more your character, we don't see it immediatly.
Also the wooden lantern is too symmetrical, geometrically perfect, and we don't see the back wood branchs.
Otherwise it's starting to look pretty solid I think.

I should let the others help you at this point.

Oh by the way, It's really funny, I did almost the exact same picture 5 years ago (unfinished) :

You have given me great lessons Tim. I'm still working on the picture with tree-trunks. The lantern in current state looks as follow:

These are all coming along well.
I like what you've done to the perspectives Tim. The most improved compositionally is that Dragon one with the the curved stone henges. It really makes for a better overall feeling.
The last one is looking really great too Ketele, it's much better than the 1st post.
