Very fun idea - gives lion king vibes, love the colouring, and view of the camp in celebration, could do with a few more characters feels a little abandoned for this kind of momentous occasion!

I really cheaped out on the background, for sure!

Nice entry. Good storytelling. Love the detail of the body flying from the horn. Haha

Developer

I'm so glad someone spotted that little detail!! Thank you!

Is there any deep meaning behind the title? Overall the render is good, love the lighting!

Thank you! As for the title, it was kind of a “does what it says on the tin” job! I initially was going to do this with an Egyptian theme because of the “prophet” title, but saw the kids pack had a baby goblin and I’ve been itching to use the goblin pack for something!

I struggled to find the best way to convey a “prophecy” in a clear manner, and came up with the idea of a birth of sorts. Combined with the eclipse, I hope that it conveys it well enough!

Another great render for scale and environmental storytelling! Camera placement does a lot of heavy lifting here to tell the story of a new child and the village celebrating! Strong use of rule of thirds as well!

Developer

Thank you! And I did actually focus on the rule of thirds for the first time so I really appreciate the comment!
