I think you already did great. I love the rendering on the metal and the water. Though I do think it could use some work as it feels like the whole piece is too rendered. The grass kinda blends in with the monster (though if that is your intention, then well done), and does its tail glow? it is attached? does it act like a vacuum? cause that's what I am getting when looking at it. I have no knowledge on armored clothing, and not that well-versed with metal rendering, so instead, here's a suggestion composition layout, another view of the scene that I can think of. I noticed that there is no "foreground" on your work, so I feel like even adding just a few strands of grass in front will elevate your original piece! | Artwod Feedback
