Pyre - Fading Finale

Artists

Artist's Comments

Whew, it's done. This is ten to eleven hours of work here and I can't really think of anything else to put in the desc.

Note: The white-ish stuff is blood. it's supposed to resemble superheated metal but I couldn't quite get it to look right. Just use your imagination.

Thank you. The whole picture turned into this monster experiment with light/shading part-way through. XD

your hard work certainly paid off. I think this is looking great. I like the overall distribution of values and colors. I think some of the white metal stuff is working good but the slit in the middle of his chest doesn't seem quite right. Those sorts of things are always hard to get just right.

I love the torn edges of the cloth too.

Asdzf. *foam* Thank you so much for the comment. X3 And the chest wound was something I kinda tossed on, I never thought it looked right either.

*still totally squealing 'cause BR commented on a picture*

This is very nice. As for a few criticisms/comments (even though I know it's way too late for any change):
1) Using yellow/orange glow for the blood might eccentuate the sense of superheated metal.
2) You probably drew him with a very pulled down loincloth and detached belt/string to bring out a devastated effect- but mayhap that is quite erotic in its nature and somewhat take away from the main efffect of the piece, actually.

Well, keep it up [emoticon]

Actually, any crits are wonderful because I'm intending to redraw the image. ^^
1) Awesome. I have much practicing to do.
2) Since this was just a doodle and was never gonna be a full finished image, I engaged in a running contest between my friends and I. Because we are immature and retarded, we occasionally see how close we can get to showing something without actually doing anything. xD It's a lot of fun but I probably won't do it on the redux.

Thanks so mch for the comment. <3
