Hi all,
This image is from an exciting project I worked on. I cleaned up my quick sketch a bit, and comments welcome!

...the pic is nice with the collors and textures esspecialy but i get some filing that something is missing...i mean the thing is you seem to have no main object or figure to focuse on just that illuminated wall...the way how you done it is fine but something is wrong with composition .also the wall from the left is very confusing and it is not clear what those two jars in front represent.

Make the jars bigger and closer to the viewer. Sentinelite is right, there is a lack of focal point. I think you want the jars to be the focus, but they are so small and far away that it is hard to care about them more then fleetingly.
Yeah, bigger and closer.

Oh, and make one bigger than the other to add interest.

You picture is 80% blank... and completely blank in the middle. The camera needs to zoom out a LOT to show us exactly where we are. Are we in a palace? A tomb? Whats going on in there?

Agreed, especially because I'm getting some spatial-perception problems with this image. It feels like that back wall is leaning towards me because of that long stick thingy to the left but the statue/sarcophagus suggests that it's going straight up.

I think either zooming out or adding and rearranging objects would help with that.
