Description *PLEASE VIEW THE HIGHER RESOLUTION IMAGE*

Sorry I haven't posted in a while everyone.
This is Birthday present for: I made titled "A Fly In The Dark". It was requested I include wings in the picture, and the rest was up to my imagination. So the concept of the final picture is that of a superhero type character with pyrokinesis wandering through a scifi scape. I wanted to evoke a sense of wonder of what reason he might have for producing giant wings of fire, and perhaps also make a viewer wonder what could have made such large webs .
Hope you like it.



Here's a link to the WIP: [link]


EDIT: thanks everyone for the DD!!!!

COOL! I'm guessing the wings are to ward off the possibility of a giant spider ambushing him.

My little brother thinks this is awesome, and that you must have lots of pwnage to make something like this. (he doesn't have an account, he's just browsing with me)

Setsuna03 [2008-11-15 04:34:26 +0000 UTC]

Wow, that's quite impressive. I really love the way you did the flames; they look quite realistic. I think you certainly accomplished your stated goal, and I think it turned out splendidly.

The only thing I can think of (since I see that advance critique is encouraged) is that the light from his wings might spread a little further. Maybe. But it's quite fine the way it is.

But really, splendid job. I can't get over how well the colors of the flames work together and how realistic it is!

hajs5 [2008-11-15 04:33:07 +0000 UTC]

That's actually really good! If a human happened to actually have wings they'd probably have to be that big to be able to fly.
