DaVulf vs. Natsia :: Speckled Wings and Asian Things

[Natsia]

To be honest with you, I have but I dont think I can finish it.
Im really not doing too well right now...
Would you mind if we can pick this up again in a week or so?
Im sorry to ask you to a battle, then turn around and have an emotional breakdown on you.

[DaVulf]

It's cool, I understand people have lives outside of Flashkit. Just be warned that if we do start again in a week or so, my turnaround won't be near as good as it has been since I'll be back at university.

I hope you start to feel better though :S.

[Natsia]

Thanks for understanding. I was going to Pm you to explian and you had messaged here.
I'll give you a PM when things have smoothed over a little.
And thanks again.

[DaVulf]

Not a problem, I just hope things work out for you.

[Natsia]

I’m back, bigger than life and twice as ugly.
Believe it or not but the mountains are in here.
This pic inspired by a little hippy girl who gave me a frangipani yesterday, which happens to be one of my favorite flowers.
Gerbs, not a word…
*cant hear you lalalalalalalalaaaa*
Thanks for waiting D.

[DaVulf]

Nice image Nat, I like how it came together, and it gives me a really nice place to work from. I might try to do a reply today, but it all depends on how long my meetings run. Don't worry though, I'll get right on it .

[Natsia]

Dont worry about it. I took long enough to get back to you. Im more than happy to wait for your return.

[lefteyewilly]

awesome pic nat! Love the textures, balance and colors. Great job!

[Natsia]

Wow, thanks for the compliment Lefteye!
I was a little worried I'd get slammed for this one, I havent really ever used textures and stuff to this extent before.
you just made my day!
:hugs:

[DaVulf]

Sorry about the wait Nat. I really like how this image turned out though, I hope you can find some inspiration from it .



Comments/Crits?

Edit: Updated kerning (small change)

[Natsia]

Wow, what a nice image!
Fitting title too!
Good use of colour, very sweet subject, I like the over exposed white of her dress.
Nice.
I'll get to work on something tomorrow

[rbs]

davulf. the last image is very good. keep it going guys . nice battle

[lefteyewilly]

best image yet DaVulf! Nice colors, great balance. Careful on your type there, it's good, but something seems a bit off about it.

sweet battle kids!

[DaVulf]

Thanks guys (and girls)... Lefteye, I get what you mean about the text. I spent about 30 minutes trying to find the right one in my list.. Nothing was working, and I went for the one that suited it the best as far as I saw.

[lefteyewilly]

it's not bad, really it's not...i guess i'm just being picky.

(maybe it's the shade of green you used)

EDIT: oh, now i see it, ...check your kerning on that (dream), there's too much space between each letter.

[DaVulf]

Ah, you're right. I completely forgot to do that.

[Natsia]

Thats much better, its a lot more visible now, without being invasive.
Nice one.
Getting some stock together.

[nordberg]

this battle is really getting on...that last volley is cool D. great composition, textures, subject and all of that. i think the sparkles brush could have been implemented better, but that's reaching.

can't wait to see your return nats...i loved your last one!

[DaVulf]

Thanks Nords. I think I see what you mean. The only sparkle I have a problem with is the star looking one (looks like a compas) just in the ground before the treeline.

[Natsia]

wow, shot nords!
Return will be up tomorrow, got the stock, started the layers, got lazy, went to work in the garden...
More lazy now...
