I was making a new Pixeldam-project, but when i finished the statue & trees i wasn't happy with it; it doesn't look like granite and there isn't a lightsourse and more. But; my question was:

How can I make it look like a statue? Because it doesn't look like it now.

My pic:

The example i used for the granite stuff:

thanks if someone can help :)

P.s. 'the making of:'

	What you're doing is pillow shading, basically. I think that some more stylistic dither could help with conveying the marble's texture.

	more contrast overall, create volumes with you shading (by picking a strong light source)
