It's brighter! And Imakarum looks great but for some reason I don't really like the yellow and reds of the flames with him. Sephiroth anyone?

I think it's just the colours.

well here is the very first old version of this. it's the one that kenji preferred.

the remade, high resolution original is the first post in this thread, you might prefer that :)

LOL, I'm going to assume the Drag-5 is your protective water mark but I'm sorry Ryuki, the words just put me even further into FFVII mode, the No XIII and I was going - wait, that's the wrong picture, where is Red XIII! (I think I'm obsessed!)

It is a beautiful picture, it's just that I don't associate those colours with Imakarum and that's where my problems is (and it IS only my problems with the colours) That and I'm probably feeling obsessed with FFVII this morning.

PS early Happy New Year.

don't worry about it, I only posted that for reference so you could see why i chose these colours this time.

as for why i chose them back then.... the knowledge is no longer available having been obscured by the sands of time. :mrgreen:

hmm, if you think about it, there are similarities.

a long haired guy who was a powerful good guy, something happen and turn him into a bad guy.

wow talk about a real throwback now !

although if i may be honest... i think i prefer the shading work you did on the old version. it looks like you took a bit more consideration into it. was this intentional? but as a whole, the newer one looks a lot more fresh and tidy

also i just remembered that I never finished the colour thing i wanted to make of this and now it's long gone on an old HDD. darn it. i couldn't make ya proud ryuki.

actually, the original used a rather ambiguous light source from above. which didn't make complete sense. the newer version uses the glowing orbs as a light source along with ambience.

i think if i had wanted to spend more time on it, i could have made that light sourcing look mmore consistent, but i wanted to keep it simple.

hey all, I was just looking at this recently and decided I wished to improve it by adding highlights.

here is the improved version.

I'm fairly pleased with it. ( though i suck at backgrounds)
