I think I'm going to try that, my intention is to make the arrow the main source of light in the sig; I fell short of that when I was making my lighting, so I'll just have to retry it. Thanks for the tip!
Edit: Looking at the sig, I figured out where I went wrong with the lighting. I highlighted what was already present on the render instead of thinking about my light source. I thought about the light source when it came to the background, but not the render itself. That's why it looks so off! *slaps palm to forehead* I can't believe I made such a stupid mistake! I'm going to fix it and put up a V2 sometime this week!
Lighting I can see needs work, you're right on that one. What could I do to blend it in better? It's been a while, I'm afraid I've forgotten a lot more than I thought about the topic [:tired:]
They've added a subscription feature to the new forum! Finally! It got pretty tiresome before looking for a thread you wanted to follow (or keeping it open all the time in a separate tab).
