The background is fine, but perhaps have him on a hill or something? Like he's on the outskirts of the city? I feel like he should be out in the open, for some strange reason.
The interior scene may work, but it's way too bright. The background suggests dusk.
About the Vulture icon, it requires DLC. Also, I prefer to work with OC.
Also, the Pericles used here would make a great leader icon.
Oh, didn't notice you had posted on the thread until now... Hehe, bad managing of subscriptions is bad...
Well, I sort of think that having a Greek on interior scene would be nice... As of now, Alexander is out on a field, and I believe Leonidas of Sparta will be like that too, but a nice interior scene to show the architectural aspect of Greece would be nice, so Athens with Pericles makes sense like that... But, I'll change the lighting then, see how it works... Though for this week I may be slow on updates, exams time and all that...
