/3/ - 3DCG

I am a beginner. I mean that absolutely. I started blendering without tutorials and only looked up stuff when I got stuck on fixing an issue. I don't state this to brag I state this because I mean it when I say I don't really have a clue as to what I'm doing even from a novice perspective and that I would REALLY love some help/criticism/advice from more advanced user.

So I'm making this oblivion gate and I would like some ideas or tips on how to make it look just better in general. The portal is supposed to be asymmetrical, the stone walk up platform it floats above is going to be molten which I've slowly added a melted rock look to on the sides. (you can KIND OF see the effect on the left side of pic barely) I am sculpting this one and I'm experimenting with all the standard brushes (are there downloadable ones I should be using???) and atm besides using snakehook and grab to create molten rock geometry to the base I am trying to use Crease to create definition between larger slabs of rock that I can bake into a texture.

idk.. anything for info is appreciated thanks in advance
