Re: New Gal on the Block

Pretty impressive first try at metal skin E-B! I'd make these comments:

1) You should rework the reflection near the edge of the fin. It's too strong and looks a bit too much set backwards. The reflection should run over the black band, not behind, IMO.
2) Don't forget the shading cast by the wings on the engines and fuselage. (But I suppose you simply haven't started that part yet).
3) The inner engine should receive less light than the outer one, as its light sources are shielded by the wing, the fuselage and the outer engine. So it should be done darker (more shaded) than the outer engine, which will reinforce the sense of scale/shape.
