Description As he rose the lightning shaped dagger above his head, the magic seal appeared beneath him. Power surged around the lightning symbol. Suddenly energy burst from seal and connected with the dagger where it was redirected to the user's other hand. There it gathered and increased in power till it was released on one big surge out from the caster toward his foe.

Holy pajamas! That's right, my rune series is pretty well known for those who watch me, so I finally added...well...am working on completing it. It's been over a year since I did one, but all the shots were taken way back. (which suck now in my opinion, but I want them to match the others so still using them).

So this is the lightning dagger (or could be a short sword i guess). I think the reasons I chose this weapon are obvious. And I think my skills have increased since a year ago, so woots.

Anyways enjoy. Comments and such always appreciated ^_^ The other runes are in my gallery if you're intrested.

I love your stance, although I really can't tell how good it is in a technical form...damn me eyes....

but it works for the lightning and I like the seal. The one thing is, I guess, I'd expect the lightning to illuminate the grass somehow. But I'm not sure how you'd show the lightning's brightness while also showing that...

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

holydak In reply to SirNaelyan [2007-01-25 18:00:55 +0000 UTC]

Techincally my stance is a little wrong (lol). But i wasn't really paying attention to the details too much. The grass is illumiated quit a bit around the actual seal, but I think you're right and below the lightning there should be more. Thanks for that! ^^

I think this is your best one yet. You might want to try doing this but standing on something other than suburban lawn though. Rocks, maybe? Sand by the beach? I don't know what sort of nature you have near you.

holydak In reply to Cosira [2007-01-25 17:57:54 +0000 UTC]

I dunno about best one, but it turned out pretty nice. Oh I know what you mean, that's sorta why I was saying the shot was old, lol. I need better surfaces But it is hard to find other things than grass around here

lord-q-dut In reply to holydak [2007-01-26 03:31:27 +0000 UTC]

There's a meadow behind my house down the dirt road a bit. Or just really tall grass. Don't really remember, probably haven't been back there since early-mid teens. Sure someone owns it, but nobody around to ever get us in trouble.

Cosira In reply to holydak [2007-01-25 19:13:22 +0000 UTC]

What about grass that isn't so groomed? Meadow maybe? Or, should it snow where you live sometime, that would work too.

holydak In reply to Cosira [2007-01-25 19:31:57 +0000 UTC]

Good ideas. I dunno where this is ungroomed grass that I can go and it's not private property though. It rarely snows here unfortunatly, but if it does be sure I'll get some pics Great ideas though, Imma start using better environments ^^
