Here are a few shots of a WIP Grey Hunter that I've taken after listening to some advice from forum members; let me know if I'm moving forward and what I can do better,

There is still a lot of shadow in that pic. If you;re after dark and moody, so be it, but it blocks out some of the details. Can you get another light source and position it to reveal the dark patch?

I think you're focussed in on his foot, leaving the rest of the model just slightly blurred. Maybe play about with manual focus a little to get different parts of the model in focus, i.e. head or weapons. Or try and close your aperture up (high f-numbers) to increase your field of focus.


Please excuse any spelling errors. I use a tablet frequently and software keyboards are a pain!

Better than the previous ones, so you're getting there, but as Flinty noted above, you still have lighting issues.
