you must really work on your blending. shadows are essential...

Exactly. Elements just look slapped on right now.

Thanks for the feedback. I added a new version with a hopeful better shadow and some highlights.

It seems unrealistic because of shadow loss, and you need to work on blending better. Basically everything above.

Thanks for the feedback. Shadow on the ground, or on the whole piece? And can you point me some specific blending flaws? I really need some help Thanks in advance!

it looks really funny! haha, i just love the way how it looks. Also yeah kinda looks unreal! good luck!

Yeah, both shadow on the ground and people, you just need to soften the edges, and play with the lighting so it all looks the same.

I worked on the lighting. Is it any better now?

Edit: The hat should be a bit darker I see now..

the blending of colors are kinda off. lessen the sharpness a little, i think it wont hurt. also, the lighting, so you can work on the depth of your piece

the blending isn't so good,but i love this colors^^
