Only critique I could find was maybe add overpaint to the sun, other than that this is a masterpiece! Looks like a water painting :slight_smile:

The overpaint looks good but the original render is quite weak, and that unfortunately carries over. You have essentially no contrast, no defined areas of light and shadow, it’s kind of just a bunch of flat blobs with a bright circle in the middle. Your shapes also lack detail and feel overly simple - especially in the back where you have a perfect cube. If that is supposed to be a rock, no rock has perfectly straight lines and 90 degree angles like that. If it’s supposed to be a building, it doesn’t have enough detail to be a building.

Your lighting also doesn’t make any sense- there’s thick fog/dust/smoke in the air, so how can the sun have a perfect border with no halo or gradient? It makes the sun look completely disconnected, as if you added it after everything else in the scene.

I’ve circled two places where you’ve added shadow directly where sunlight is. There’s no logical way for these to be shadowed- especially the second (lower) one, it implies a massive cloud in the sky in front of the sun, but there’s no cloud.

You’re a good painter. What you need is to focus more on the planning stage- figuring out your composition, lighting, etc, before actually doing anything.
