Thanks for commenting. :]

Yeah, I think the colors turned out better on the toad.
There's a slight clash between the greenish foreground blue and the background moon-yellow and dark-sky-blue in the ghost pic. And maybe the reds and yellows on the helmet contribute to the mess -Meh. I should fix it but I don't know what to start with. .p-.
And as was pointed out elsewhere, there trees are too sharp-edged, they kinda draw too much attention as is, which takes away from the focus... @_@

Riiight... something random.

That Reaper looks really great - I love the way you painted the robes, there's lots of motion in the fabric. And I like the colours - not the 'usual' gloomy scene.
Yet I had to look twice to find the dead body (and I just notice how totally endearing that sounds), because his colours are similar to the background. Maybe a tidbit more of a dark shadow under the body would strengthen the contrast. Bold outlines would work, too - my art teacher always recommended that.


But - and I do not know why - the setting reminds me of something remotely different: Do you know that story about the old man who knows that his end is soon to come? He awakes one night because of an odd cold creeping into his bedroom from behind the door, sees a bright light, hears the door creak as it opens and finally faces Death. The Reaper turns his head, extends his bony hand while the scythe is gleaming in the unearthly light - and then he notices the old man, shrugs and says '...beg your pardon, I was just looking for the cat...'

Maybe because the Reaper in your picture seems to be blissfully unaware of the pile of work that is brandishing a sword over there

(/strange nighttime rant )

Wow! That's cool WeeR! I luv the reaper! I also admire the background! It's kinda of a dreamy place, very nice colors and shapes!

PS: You give him a buckler to fight the reaper? lol He could use a better armor... but anyway he is doomed, right? haha

@Ranya
Thanks! :]

Hummm. Yeahh, the corpse may be a bit hard to spot, but I can't really see it being any other way since there's shiny fog all over, inevitably the highlights (on the corpse) would pick up the surrounding color and the light would negate most shadows. o_o
Yeah, i think I've heard that story somewhere, it's a fun one. ^^
Hmmm. @_@


@Silinde
Thanksies to ye too! :]
I was debating adding vague face-shapes in the fog, to bring in even more otherwordliness, but eh, got lazy. .p

Wow, That would be amazing!

Btw, i like the fixes on the ghost, it's got a better blending now. I would also suggest to use further smudge on the white-blue foggy part of the ghost.

[WeeRLegion]

Ehheh, maybe I'll try it. Someday. .p
Not the smudging though, methinks it'd just make it seem muddy and solid instead of... rippling and unlively. .p

Like the lights from the eyes, especially!

[WeeRLegion]

Awesomeness. It just happens sometimes. xD

:???:

Huh? Who's that?

[WeeRLegion]

Jut a merge of Ano, standard male portrait 1 & Eldoth. .p

[Aliya]

Aye, I can see the resemblance.

[WeeRLegion]

Mmmmyeahh, I just thought the combined total of lecherousness was mind bogglingly hilarious. ^^

[Epantiras]

Oh my Lord of Murder!
Random bald guy + Eldoth + Anomen = Total Awesomess XD

[WeeRLegion]

Teehee! Somebody gets the humor in lecherousness!



Here's another less fun portrait mix. I thought the original Male2 portrait was a bit too angry and un-paladinlike for a proper tin can. Eh, can't remember whose eyes I stole, maybe Ano's, but he's now got valygars mouth at least.
A little more tempered now. :]

[WeeRLegion]

You may be right. @_@
It's weird though. I at first put them new eyes on them old eyes by the pupils; good match there. Of course I sgoulda palced 'em by the corners of the eyes, but eh... The difference wasn't that great. But I've since ended up adjusting them a good deal up and about.
I think even the original has a tiny bit of a skewed look there, but somehow hides it better... @_@


*Lul I fixeds it.

I like the new set of armour of the bald guy

[WeeRLegion]

That piece of armor does get around a bit I think; it's one of the easiest to chop and paste. ^^
Of course the color adjustments may take a little work if done properly. .p

*thanks! ^^

Teehee, teh new stuff. Ajantis' arm, Minsc's armor, Safana's hair, Eldoth's sweet Lech-Looks, and spiced up lighting.
