Nightblue VS LORD M - JUDGED

[LORD M]

I and Nightblue are going to fight again. I picked topic 6, and player 2 - choise B. Nightblue haven't choosed yet. We decided we would take no longer than 2-3 hours on our pieces.


topic 6

player 1 (attacker):tears through the battlefield with a battle axe
A- you cleave your oponent in 2 clean halves, your savage face roaring in bloodlust
B- you swing your massive axe through the air over your head, your oponent turns to run away

player 2 (defender) :you have a realisation
A - your aura changes , you realise the way of the world, you are enlightened on the battlefield and no harm can possibly befall you.
B - you decide to fight fire with fire, your eyes tighten, your skin becomes like stone, you rush at your oponent like the wind.



Good luck to both of us, Nightblue! :)

[Nightblue]

ha, that was fast :) I'll be doing "A" using my usual elf character since elf + axe = pure entertainment.

I should be able to work on it tonight once I get home. Let's set the deadline to weekend.

[LORD M]

This is my final piece. Sorry Nightblue, I accidentaly broke the rules about the time and got carried away and spent maybe 2 hours extra on this one. :( I admitt defeat if you want me to, because I broke the rules.

oh no, don't admit defeat! man, you've improved quite a bit since we last dueled :D I love this piece. The pose is great, and composition is spot-on. I'll have to try to match your um... "chi"? for lack of better words :P

I'll spend 4-5 hours on mine then, no worries. I'll probably end up spending most of the extra time on poses.

This is really nice! You've got a cool, dynamic pose there and a confident use of anime style coloring :rocker:
Keep up the great work :yayca:

[LORD M]

That is one hell of a blow, Nightblue! Your elf girl is cool as hell and got an evil smile on her face. Great angle and choise of pose. I like the colours you used, they're intense but yet pleasant to the eye - compared to mine. :P

Keep it up, I can't wait to see it finished. :D

[Nightblue]

Final:

Used about 4.5 hours total. Lost my head a bit in the brightness thing... shoulda worked out background more before digging into characters. I did enjoy doing the evil roar expression per description though :P

Thanks for the kind words Lord M!

Sorry for the late reply, comp broke down, but that is really awesome! I really love it! Great athmosphere and that flaming axe was a great idea. I like how you finished her evil smile. :D

Great one! :)
