I'm still so bad with lighting.

Man lighting is a little tricky, but the best way is to just set a fractal or something to dodge. Seems like the light should come from the upper right. Otherwise? It's pretty good, my own preference is smudging but I do like this a lot.

I like it a lot, and how Ven actually looks like he fits there. The colors are good and I see those pen lines you made on his Keyblade's teeth.

For the lighting:

We can see in the render that the light is coming from the top to middle right. I drew the arrows to show how the light would affect those areas and Ven. But then there's also a lesser light source to his left, which you've already got down with the red C4Ds.


Anyways, I think it's a great piece, just with some lighting missing. That's all. Everything else is perfect.

Woot :D Saving the day!

So yeah, if you just do that with the lighting, Malibu, you're as good as gold.
