SWEET totally awesome!Can I use the Img for my art class?Am gonna redraw it if I can /blush.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\'(blush)\' />

As I told you in chat, I think you\'ve done an awesome job on this piece. For a beginner you are off to a fast start, it will be nice to see more of your work /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

The only suggestion I would make is more realistic looking flames. There are many tutorials for making flames, and there are also some flame brushes for photoshop. I will see if I can get some for our onsite downloads, and perhaps work on a flames tutorial as well.

Keep up the good work /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />

hmm thanks for your comments fellas. boogyman you can use it if you want /biggrin.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':D\' />. Adaera i'll work on that thanks for your comment maybe i'll post a revised version sometime again.

i'm also giving this a thumbs up - i really like the main mr grim part.
i agree with adeara on the flames......although would maybe suggest it would just as good without them altogether.

[b][i][color=\"gray\"][font=\"tahoma\"]Great image there Pau, but im afraid im going to have to purchase a ticket on the bandwagon here and say that the flames are the only thing letting it down. Make some realistic flames or possibly as Nem suggested... do away with them alltogether and its essentially faultless. Looking forward to seeing some of your future creations.

I allways find a quick and easy way to make a fire effect is to lay down some base yellow, red and orange colours in a basic flame shape, using your normal soft edge brush, then grab your blur tool, and run the colours through each other. All nice and easy for if you cant find a decent Flame tutorial.

On the tutorial side, good-tutorials has a few flames tuts, use their search facility to find one. Just type in fire effects, should do the trick.
