I'm a big fan of both the book and serie, so warning this may be spoiler to some...to those who read the book this isn't any mysterie. I went with the TV show depicture of the character, the male morph isn't mine but from Rendo, however I made the waitress morph based on Anna Paquin. I also paint over a logo and tweak some texture so they'd fit my purpose better. It took a whole day to create the three render for composition purpose.

I think you did a great job here. I do not agree with the comments of the first critique that was posted, as I see some things differently. However when you request a critique and someone takes the time to provide one its just to accept their point of view, it's just not the same as mine.

If I look at this with the expectation of a photo-realistic render there are a few elements I could be critical of. However I do not feel its really going for that look, and I see it having more the qualities of a painting. Photo realism or artistic expression as well as any combination of things are certainly viable in 3D art.

For me I think the intended characters are a very good representation. I am especially impressed that you did the Sookie character yourself, and I think Eric looks a lot more like Eric than my recent render of the same character.

I do feel some passion from her and I feel a matter of fact expression from him, as if he's getting what he wanted and she wants more. While I don't consider myself a True Blood expert, I haven't read any of the books, only started one. The expressions and poses are true to my perceptions of the characters in the TV series.

From a technical stand point, two elements I would suggest could improve the scene. Where his hand is above her waist, it feels as though its not actually touching her as I would expect. Perhaps some shadowing in that area might assist. The second would be to bring up the over all lighting a notch or two. I think that might increase the dramatic feeling of the image by increasing the contrast between light and dark.

When I first looked at this image before reading anything, my first thought was wow! Especially concerning the Sookie character and the over all feeling I got from the image.

Would this image be one that I would nominate for a DD? No, but it is certainly one that I enjoy and feel a sense of communication from you as the artist. That to me is a very important element of why we share and enjoy each others work.

This piece has so much unexplored potential! I am not sure if you requested a critique on this for asthetic reasons or accuracy to the book and series, so I will comment on just the artistic aspect of it. The characters seem 'frozen' as if they are literally posing for a cover of a B-Rated movie. There is very little emotion here, and while the backround is pleasantly simple as to bring focus to the couple, I was disappointed that there was so little to actually feel here. I don't feel any longing coming from the human girl to her companion, although this may work extremely well for the vampire male. An element of cold indifference or even hunger from his perspective would play an excellent foil to the young woman. Overall, like I said this picture has much untapped potential, I hope you will find it. =)
