Stylized Autumn Scene

BradyJ

Hey looking for some feedback on my new scene of a semi stylized autumn scene. Just looking to add some final touches before I post my work on Artstion.  https://www.artstation.com/bradyjdesign

Lemme know what you think needs to be done still.

Great set of detailed assets.

My first thought though is how busy the scenes are, I think you need composition (lighting, color, shape) to guide and please the eye. We have some things here that may help: http://wiki.polycount.com/wiki/Concept_Fundamentals#Composition

Second thought is the ground looks like a solid color. Autumn scene should have a lot of leaves and sticks and things on the ground.

If the goal is to show off the building model, it's really overwhelmed by the foliage. I'd suggest paring the trees down to just the essentials. What's the least you can get away with? Sometimes all it takes is a single "hero" tree to sell the season.

Thanks for sharing this, this seems really useful.
