Description This took me quite a while. Its my first real complete digital painting project and I'm proud of it- I put a lot of effort into it and I learned tons in the process. I'd say it took about 2 and a half hours straight, just me and my mouse. I really hope you like it.

Full View is good. Comments are delicious as well as s.

I read the title as

"A Fist Fight"

I swear I looked at that looking for people fighting for like 5 minutes.

Beautiful. I'd bang it.

looks nice man, have you been using brush textures on the clouds? I like the balloon man, nice detail.

Nah, I just used default brushes. If I remember correctly I hardly edited them.

Looks really good. I love the colours on the cloud.
It looks a little empty below the cloud thought, maybe you could have cropped it a little, but that's only my opinnion. xP
Really nice aye

Wertonen [2006-10-26 06:09:02 +0000 UTC]

Oh this is pretty fabulous. You've managed to create amazing forms and colours here. Just the thing that distracts my eye is the size of the balloon, it really doesn't serve the massiveness of the clouds. If you think in real life the difference between a balloon and cumulus clouds you'll understand what I mean.

DocDan In reply to Wertonen [2006-10-26 10:40:52 +0000 UTC]

Thanks much! I think you're right about th balloon. I probably won't chage this, but what you said gave me some ideas and some things to keep in mind in the future. Thanks much for looking and providing some helpful feedback!
