To everyone else, here's what I've been trying to do with Throne Room.
Mostly it's lighting changes. I tried to even it out a bit, adding shadows and reflections here and there.
Then there's some minor stuff like flipping the columns, making Shang Tsung a bit bigger and some minor touches to his throne.
I'd still like to make the dragons bulkier. Hope some day I get around to doing that, but guess it's not going to be an easy one.

I'm doing this by ear so don't shoot me if it isn't exactly as I say, but should give you an idea.
At 0:19 the main melody goes F D B G#Bb G# Bb G# and then that two-note alternation gets faster and the "verse" ends.
The way that sequence ends sounds kinda out of place to me.
I'll try to send you something more useful later when I can get to the MIDI editor.
I actually thought Kano's portrait was pretty good.
Is there anything wrong with it or that was a mistake?

really not going to be easy, but these small changes already observed that the environment is much better. keep it up! the scene was much more realistic!
ps. regarding dragons, perhaps to give greater impression, the 3D model you can use something like "inflate" or make the model gets larger or plumper rs like you can do in PS

Those are most probably there (I didn't make the original picture so I don't remember), just maybe not prominent enough to appear in that reduced picture.
At first I only intended to made minor changes to it, and then came the columns and Shang Tsung's throne, but should I do more stuff to it, I'll try to improve that.

Hey Arq, sorry for the late reply but sometimes I don't get a chance to visit the site as frequently as I would like.
Unfortunately I don't have a twitter account
I'm not so sure he would be able to take the time out to fulfill a random request like that anyway.We may luck out though because months ago he posted a small photo of the Goro, Kintaro and Sheeva maquettes and more recently he posted those more closeup photos I provided. Maybe he'll send out some more, better quality photos soon!

As you can see, I didn't make it as big as in the game.
It's just that the lower part of the throne looked like it lacked mass, and I enlarged that a bit and Shang Tsung kinda followed.
If consensus is that it should be properly sized, I'll do that later.
Comments are welcome.

here is my first shot.. cheers
@uker that looks great, I mean, the lighting on the stage, I think that if the stages can be improved as well that would be great.. they look great now but further improve is always a good idea

Yeah, I'd like to give a similar treatment to a couple other stages that could probably use it.
I'll see what I can do.
About the animation, looks pretty good. I only find a little strange that there's that bulge in his back.
I think it's because his chest shouldn't come so close to his knees.
His ass should be much lower and his torso should be more upright and leaned back.
Note how his lower left leg points slightly forward.
An approach that you could use to get the legs right is to get his crouch block stance first and then to get to the crouch just rotate his right leg.
Also, I'd make his hands a bit more vertical so that more of the back of the right hand (not so much its edge) and the palm of the left one are visible.
The hands being at 45 degrees relative to the floor seems about it.

If anyone wants to give the project site a look they'll find it recieved a pretty decent facelift. I still haven't updated the gallery sections but will soon.
