Remember that three way battle we had with mandissected a long long time ago? That was my first battle in the arena.

How could I forget? It was probably the most fun and stress relieving battle I've ever participated in :) I didn't realize it was your first battle, that's cool.

So, we going to keep this going or what?? :cool:

[EDIT]
Ah, looks like you posted something, Nep, for some reason its not showing up for me... your other one is, though.

back to the original battle :D

EDIT: Neppers man...what an awesome volley. I dont know where you got your stocks from, but man, that is cool as hell. I'm not 100% on the butterflies for the image...possibly dragonflies or something that fits the image more. Also, the left goggle lense seems to have too much glare on it compared to the right one.

Nice battle gentleman. Nice battle :thumbsup:

here are the stocks... well, I googled all these.

peace!

nepzap2... your volley not showing, dead link from imageshack :(

Yeah, I noticed that... hum... it's the second time that happens.

ANYWAYS I UPLOADED a new version of the image.

Wow, now that guy is truly a tech junkie, to an unhealthy extreme! ;)

Tiny detail, but I like how you distorted the one butterfly, makes it look more natural, rather than just another stamp of the same butterfly.

I call next.

Let's keep this going!!!

That's hot. I would: Get rid of the bubble thing or at least do something with it. Replace "The Darkness The Darkness The Darkness" with "OPAQUE - DESIGN - STUDIOS" Clean up those shapes on the left and right towards the bottom. All in all great image.

Thanks Now when you said clean up the shapes to the left and right. In what way did you mean Zaca? Yeah the little bubble was suppose to be some sort of scan eye with a close up of skin at the cell level but then I just lost vision :( but next time. Again thanks for the compliment.

Clean up wasn't very descriptive and in fact, not really what I meant. I think that mostly, you have a strong composition and beautiful depth with your overlay shapes and filtering but the kicker is where the two long shapes on either side towards the bottom bevel out from the image. For me, it flattens all of the depth that you have created because they just bevel out from the entire image as a whole. My only advice is to consider playing with just those shapes, perhaps the opacity, intensity of the bevel, etc. until the shapes become less of a focal point and more of the entire "scene". However, I only say consider because while it's important to experiment with your techniques and visions to develop your artistic character, it's also good to maintain the vision you have if you feel strongly about it because imo, that's the most fundamentally brilliant aspect of art- expressing yourself non traditionally and making your mark.

You sure your not a professional critic or perhaps a teacher, because what you jsut said right there was like very professional and to the point thank you.
