Hey Danial!
Looking good mate. Maybe for more variety you could have the Alsatians' head turned sideways and looking up at the young chaps?

Ciao Danial,
Looks really good. I might suggest that you dirty up the boots and gloves of the two men (the boots more so.) You can use the color of the ground they are standing on to dirty the boots. The guys (and the ground) could use a wash and some highlighting. It would bring the details out a little better. Just some tips, hope they help.
Ciao for now
Rob

Looks good but, just my 2 cents...try blending the road color.

Cheers

Oh just to add, maybe you could consider using real earth for the ground. That would definitely lessen the burden of blending....

Cheers

Nice little dio you got there. Perhaps adding a bush or some plant on the other side of the fence? Seems to be empty space that could be used for something.
