New model, new shoot, new lighting styles... some by accident because one of my lights failed to fire for a while, but I'm happy with the overall results.
I hardly ever come on here anymore (mostly, I'm busy with uni, nearly finished woohoo), but I ended up having a bit of a look around on here tonight, and its good to see that you're back. Personally, I never thought your work looked amateurish at all...i'd definitely rank it in the top 10% of all the work I've seen here on deviantART, even though I don't come here all that much anymore (and haven't submitted anything in like, ages). Anyway, its good to see that you're still doing something you're good at, and that you're still enjoying it.
LOL. I had the opposite mate. I was amazed that I could cope with using just one light. First shot was a mess, but I got it nailed pretty quick. Don't tell anyone, but I was impressed at my own skills... shhhh..
Producing some cool images there duckie, keep it up!!
