If you were to attempt to do backgrounds, you should consider doing ones like the attachments.

They would be quick to put together, you would really be able to utilize Octane's strengths, and they would have that serious WOW factor. They would also provide excellent settings for your figures. Not to mention tons of material to use as references. I just googled 'gothic forests'.

That would be sick!!

best,

Thanks Oli. As it happens I was thinking the exact same thing...
So I've been working on a tree scene..

These gals are post-punk, not hardcore goth. A park would be way easier than a late-80s mall or a record store, which would be my first choice.
@Frank, I like the idea of a record store..

Pretty cool Dan,

But I think you should ditch the leaves and just keep the branches. Like in winter, but it's not winter. It would be a "post-punk" gothic winter. 8-)

More trees!

best,
