EDIT - Finished. Spent another two hours on this.

Damn Lukiaz!!!! that fuckin rules!!!! some serious shit man, love the face.. Think this is the best piece I've seen from you, along side your Sloar creature (hope u got that finished). Hey you should submit some of these to epilogue.net for the time being, get yourself a gallery up there.

Hey you New Zealander, As an Aussie i have to say this sucks, but as an artist I'd have to say it rules. Nice work

I'm so tempted to tease you and Speed3D

Nicely finished off Lukiaz. I'm particularly impressed with your consistancy in the shading. Great work!

Lukiaz, this is one sweet looking Fire Elemental! (Someone should start an elemental post somewhere) The face looks very fearsome with the crazy stars for eyes and that wide lear for a mouth bearing teeth.
Of course, all the shading of the flames looks the best by far.

This is so good, I had to try colouring it. I hope you don't mind and I stick this in a URL link if you do have a problem with it. Using the Gradient Editor in photoshop is perfect for a piece like this:

You can find the gradient editor under Image > Adjust > Gradient Map

Speed3D - 'Just another fucking Aucklander'?. Haha...your not a hillbilly redneck from the country are you?

(me?..Auckland *&* Te Puke...so I'm a sophisticated country boy)

SWANY - As an aussie I'd have to say YOU suck(

). Don't even try and tease me as you'd soon perish under a pile of well fired Aussie jokes.
Seriously though. Thanks

Radiater - Cheers man

(this board moves to fast....*bump*)

Highfive/Johnathan - Hey thanks man and no, I have no problem with you colouring it

Looks quite cool. Brings out the fire aspect(obviously).

Switch - Cheers
