Description PLEASE Full view in order to get the full effect of it and all. Thank ya.

The 2nd part of the magic seal photomanips I want to do. I hope to do more though. Anyways, I'm mostly happy with this one, a couple things I don't like, but yet a couple things I really do like, so I supppose they equal out I'm kinna mad though you can't really see the fire seal design, but you can see it better on the lightning piece.

It was idea to do the fire ring around the seal, which I really like ^^

Comments most appreciated.

Yet again... This reminds me of the human mage in the WoW openning cinematic for the game... >.> omg I'm an addict.

I really love your pose and your photo manipulation- very nice. I would suggest perhaps making the lighting more appropriate for the scene, like saturating the scene with red a little. ^^

~Wow! The fire turned out really nice in this one. I like how it circles around the rune as well. Yeah. You need to lighten up the symbol a bit. It's hard to see it. But the fire leaping up to your hands looks really cool. Nice job.~

hmm...you know wha tyou should do? (I'm not familliar with photoshop, mind you, so maybe it's easier said than done...) You should add red and/or yellow hues to the clothes for the firelight's reflection. Cos the fire is so well done...but the figure just lokos like a paper-cut-out of you. Also, the fire your right hand (viewer's left) maybe should look more firey and less magic-turning-to-firey (since the fire in your left - viewer's right - hand looks more firey like that).
...hope I wasn't all harsh... it's better than I could do anyway!

holydak In reply to Kyre [2005-03-09 13:44:41 +0000 UTC]

no no, I appreciate the feedback. I actually did add a lot of reflection to the clothes. There's a lot more than what was there. It just doesn't show up to well on the pink shirt. But perhaps more would be better. The whole thing with him looking cutout is one of the things that also bothers me. I used different brughtness lvls cause...the backgroud was too light and the figure was too dark...so..bleh...but it didn't turn out well -_-; As far as the fire goes, the left hand is suppossed to be drawing or sucking in the flame, hence why it's more compact and stuff. And the right hand is suppossed to be having and explosion of flame coming out (perhaps I should have put this in the description o.O Anyways, Thanks bunches for the comment and the crit

Oh, I see it on the shirt now But I think it's maybe that the front (shade) of the shirt is blue...if you maybe made that a pale yellow colour it might help...umm...again...maybe that's easier said than done though

YES!!! MORE DAKKIE MAGIC!!! Very cool. The fire rocks. The fire is good, the rune is good, including the texture. But the lighting doesn't look quite right... It looks like two pictures spliced together. Especially around your feet. Maybe the rune should cast more light. This is still a 9 out of 10 piece though. *thumbs up*

holydak In reply to Athcear [2005-03-07 15:02:27 +0000 UTC]

Arigatou I'm glad you like it (well mostly ~.^) And yeah, that's pretty much the problems that I had with it too. Other than those things though, I'm pretty pleased with it. About the rune casting more light, I could do that, but then you wouldn't be able to see any of the rune marking and stuff...well unless...*gets some ideas* I'll mess with it on the next one Thankies ^^
