Looks like you got yourself a following here, Levi!

This piece just gets better and better, I must say. The reds really help bring this thing to life, but the glowing greenish mist-smog stuff seems a bit out of place. I know it's the moon reflection -- or so I gather-- and I think if you just use the burn tool in Photoshop just a wee bit to give the green a brighter tint to it eithin the middle, I think that'll create so much more power. Just a suggestion from a guy who used Phtoshop for six, seven years now and usually spends about 10-12 hours easy in it for just one deviation.

Keep up the awesome work! (and sorry if this double posts)

thanks dude, yea i thought about that, then i forgot that, it is him thats glowing, its like.. his power, but thx for the pointer. only spent little over an hour on this one, and ive only used photoshop for about.... 1 year.. and have barely any experience in it, ive only really started using it as of late. so how am i? so far with it i mean.

For the most part, you got a good handle on it (it took me three years just to learn how to color my illustrations ). Just always remember when doing this never to rest on your laurels on what you already know... always reinvent yourself, and never ever EVER use the lens flare filter.

you have blown my mind my friend....
you have blown my mind...
the composition of this is excellent... moody, atmospheric and imposing, emphadsizing the subjects power...
the colour scheme, however makes it. The tones you use and the way the colours at once clash and meld produces a truly unique effect, as well as again, emphasizing the sheer force and might of the subject...
incredible stuff.
