Advice? Feedback?

So after a lot of learning I've just finished a render that I would like to share. It's still not where I want it but I think I may just be being too hard on it. What are your thoughts? Any feedback positive or negative? Any advice?

Congrats on the first render.

My biggest take from this is the angle of the render, and the fact that a lot of it is empty space to the right, which pulls my focus away from the subject on the left.

Thanks, I felt something was off in the composition. I'll have to work on that.

Materials:

- One wall looks very different than the other, which doesn't make much sense

- The throne and especially the pillar look plastic and probably need a shader

 

Lighting:

- Overall not too bad, but a little flat

- Light temparature is a little chilly for my taste, but that's subjective

- The reflection on the pillar makes no sense for an indoor scene

 

Composition:

- Figure is cropped oddly

- Figure is quite small, we see a lot of empty space in background. I would either zoom in closer to the figure, or make the background more engaging.

 

Storytelling:

- I can't tell what the figure is doing or what he's thinking/feeling.

 

I hope some of that was useful! Have fun!
