Actually I don't think it's too bad as is, excepting the no AA.  The ground
could definitely use a change though, looks either like a manicured lawn or
raked gravel.  If there were small to large variations it would be better.
Oh, and some rocks encircling the fire too.

Is the army Roman or Greek? Or am I totally of base and its the army from
Fictionia?

It is supposed to be the elite of my Free Republic of Aragan - which is
totally fictional. I think they could not stand the  comparison with any
real life ancient army.

Yes, the ground. It is made of Hf-tiles from a grass-picture with an
image-map of grass. I'll have to choose another way, I think.

Thanks,

There is already a 'Moon'-lightsource behind the camera, but I agree it has
to be a bit brighter ;-)

Thanks. I'll make my fill light's a bit brighter, that should work.

Brighness is OK on a calibrated gamma 2.2 (sRGB) monitor.
I would try cold blue light up and behind the scene.


K.K.

I don't understand this Gamma stuff very well. So I would like to ask some
questions.
My Monitor has Gamma 1.55 (or that is what Picture Publisher tells me) -
does this mean, that the Pic is brighter on your screen? Or does it mean you
see it the way I do, 'cause I rendered it with assumed_gamma 1.55? When I
raise gamma in PP to 2.2 it is  much to bright. The colored stripes on the
tents are easily to recognize and quite bright with 2.2 .. hm, as I think
about it, you would not say the brightness is okay if you would see it this
way. In fact all those ugly details show up (I have to rework those boots!).

The lighting remains difficult because it changes dramatically dependent on
the use of radiosity, the color and structure of the ground and so on. A lot
of trial and error.

Actualy I think the darkness of the scene give it a more realistic look.
Seems to fit the mode of the scene better.

After some gamma correction this looks fine.  A few things that I will mention
are that the grass clumps seem to be set out in a very uniform fashion, try
to get a bit of randomness into it, also the scene has an indoors feel to it,
probably because the sky is so dark, and there doesn't appear to be any moon
light shining on anything. 

Nice work.
