Open Battle :: "everybody was kung fu fightin'..."

Damn EVP, nice work. Awesome image O. You are crazy man, I tried making an image like that, but I just found it too damn hard.

You should write another tutorial, god knows how many times I've used the one you have up right now.

Like your last one pea! Very clean and stylish!

The "Lurkers" image is sweet! There's a lot of dark/moody images going round the Arena but this really fits its strap!

Jealous :)

Thanks, Adobemedia!

lol, dri, sorry about that...want me to chip in? ;)

I figured it'd be you to find the bird in 30 seconds E...

Thanks vulf, you'll get there, just keep your juices flowing and your fingers clicking...and maybe I'll get on that new tut.

littleMatt, thanks man.

Spotted the bird instantly. I think it depends alot on your monitor. Stuck out good for me. Great image...

I'll throw another down if ya'll don't mind.

scratch that. I just got a pretty heavy project.

Hi all,
took the liberty to take the next turn... hope its all ok.

very cool nguma!

and welcome to the arena!

Saaaweeet love it. That's one heck of a "my name is nguma, and i'm new" lol Great job...

very nice monene! Welcome to the arena!

I like everything about your volley except for the "KungFu Fighting" font. It doens't match match for me...

Otherwise everything else is pretty damned tight...very cool

I thought I aggreed with you on that Lefteye but for some reason and im not sure why the image gave me a Foo Fighters feel. I dont know the font clashes but not enough for me to go bleh its kinda on that balance of yeah neah-- i like hmmm i like lol

bad thing im not drinking lol

thanks thanks.
Personally i quite like that font here :D :D :D

very cool image Nguma Monene :thumbsup:

i like that style a lot. i kind of agree that the font is a big contrast with the rest of the image- but i actually kind of like that fact. for me, it works :)

I'm not a fan of that font period and personally feel it's out of place. Also, did you mean to take out the lions 4th tooth? Aside from that I do dig this image, it has a cool flat style.

I like the font myself. You guys all keep pushing the boundaries as far as what is "acceptable" is concerned and I, for one, am totally diggin' it! Two :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Welcome to the Arena Nguma Monene.

actually you're right, it was a mistake at first but I actually liked it.
The 2 bottom teeth are missing their tip though, and my self is damn guilty of that one.

thanks evp

Yeah, it's a bit goofy.

yeah.

my webspace is acting up...or down rather. i dunno.

nice idea O. I like it.

Damn...i try to keep you on the highest pedestal possible in my mind, but this isn't what i'm expecting with quality images from you. Your Goth style is damn perfect, but when you stray from that, i see some stuff that's lacking. I hate to be an ass about this and i'm sure i'll get blasted by the community from this. But, in all honesty you've executed every aspect just about pefectly, but the image over all isn't a fave of mine...

I'm sooo glad you're back though, please don't ever leave. I need you to keep my inspiration going :)

Just because O is a legend around here, doesn't mean he's perfect. I agree that the vast majority of his images are top notch, but I agree with you on this one. I feel like the blending on the mane of the lion is a little bit off, and it gives me a weird feeling about the image. The rest is fine, but it just doesn't have that power to drag me into the image.

I still think we should see a battle between ctranter and O.

yes. this one is quite boring in comparision to the norm, but i had fun with it, so thats why i didn't just scrap it halfway.
thanks for the crit & comments, fellas.

a ctranter, gerbick, ond, royal rumble would rock my world.
