Please post what you chose and why.

Remus, because it looks badass apart from a few minor graphical errors.

[[the Sills]]

1. Remus Fkn. awesome idea, well done aswell.
2. DragonShadow, Nice effects and they work well togheter

[Reflection]

I chose Narudan because none of the others stand up as good graphically. Remus' idea was nice but some realism errors leave it out for me. Good work all of you

[d3rrial]

I was fighting with me between Narudan and you. You won because narudan didn't correct the ugly edges in the Stock, wich you covered very well.

[Gawdlaw]

Narudan, because I think that the concept from him is the best.

You voted for flying bunnies!

[Narudan]

Lol, bunnies.

[Erase]

Dragonshadow, cause we all love Bolvar Lavaman.

There's a difference between surrealism and unrealism. Narudan's is surreal i.e some unreal element in the picture while Remus' is unrealistic on some parts, light is a bit off, orange on the hand hand doesn't fit as there's no other orange in the picture

[d3rrial]

I loved the idea of Narudan best. But the execution is best done by Reflection.

[Remus]

You forget that light passing through flesh retains the color of blood and skin, thereby retaining a orangeish pigment under intense heat/light. If done by hand with any other medium besides digital, I would still have done it with the fleshy light atmosphere to offset the blue tone of the picture.
Focusing the eye towards the hand most importantly beyond just the orb and hand sitting there.

The imperfection in of itself on the orb, was not rectifiable to my current level of skill, without redoing a fair bit of the picture and it wasn't a sore thumb sticking out so i settled with it and went on my merry way of other art.

In portrayal of others art, in order,
Reflection, the lines have no origin, and are non-reflective on the orb.

Narudan, stars viewed through the arm while bunnies flying in space while there is no light source making the arm look out of place

Sneakylemons, I'm not a fan of the art style as that, rather have a more realistic tone- no complaints as that was not the effect garnered.
Nothinglol, light source is unknown, the orb thereby not lighting up even the hand

P1raten, not too much to critique, most i can say is the extremely dark edge on the top right of the eye with but that was there in the stock

Remus, some flow of the orange pigment should have been tinted a bit more blue, the wrist skin on the outside of the tattoo should have been removed. correcting the background on the upper right for it's blurriness compared to the rest, the top of the orb a bit sharper as the blur didn't come out as planned, and the odd light source on the ring finger without the tint of blue while retaining no shadows

Dragonshadow, i just haven't been able to load the damn image for a while now and appears as a little box of a broken link.

Wait, you just reviewed yourself?

[Remus]

It would look biased and the harshest critique to one's art is the artist themselves.

Dragonshadow becuse its looks best
