Very intense! This is how post work is supposed to be done!
Coming from you RedHawk I consider this high praise (love your High Priestess). Thank you for taking the time to comment.
great scene with excellent pose and expression (and very creative concept and design
very different ... love the composition
Yes, The long sword is fabulous. Really creates a great design in this image. This is superb work. The facial expression and originality of this image is outstanding. Excellent work !
Now that is cool. I love the flame traveling up a B/W image.
veng3nce - Thank you for taking the time to post. BBarbs - I appreciate your comments and compliments. Raddar - Thanks for the positive feedback. Love your work. Krid - As always, thank you for taking an interest in my work. While I sincerely appreciate the overwhelming (and surprising) support, does anyone have any negative points to add? I've learned so much just from browsing the galleries here, but would love to have some solid critiquing of my images directly.
one word. ..striking !
Well this is breath taking to say the least.
I have a slight criticism to what is an otherwise fantastic image. Maybe you could consider filling the empty black space. Some implied movement wouldn't go amiss I think.
Good point BtB. This was a VERY early work for me, and looking back I have mixed feelings about it. Part of me appreciates the negative space; part of me longs to fill it! Consider this permission to give it a go yourself (BtB only, of course). Just be sure to email me the results.
Very dramatic looking 3D image! I like the contrast between Color with Black & White. Also like his facial expression, the sword design, & the energy glowing effects.
