sweet. very cool. one crit. the water seems to threadlike, i imagine there would be spray or mist at the bottom of a waterfall, to give the sense that the water is smashing against the dino.

Duracel-

Nice piece.

I agree about the water, but I also have another crit: The rock which is supposed to be behind the dino looks like it is ON TOP of the dino's back. Perhaps making the darks in the rock less dark, or, sense this is a water fall, you could paint some sort of mist which would separate the dino from the background alittle bit.

Keep up the good work. Itried to access your site, but I got an error. I would be interested to see more of your stuff!!

First of all, thx :)

Some less "mist" - i agree.

The point with the "onTop-rock" ... damn, your right :(
It's supposed to give contrast, but this "effect" wasnt my effort.

But, hey, this is finally finsihed (well, im really tired of this one - happy and tired ;) so this shall be the punch-line of this piece. :D

PS: Dunno why you got an error - the site works to me. :/

[killing.people]

a simple fix for the rock and the dinos back would be to add some highlights on the dinos back. :p i know, i know

Im here just to look around and to show my larger works - no time to show all my speedpaitnigns here too. ;)

PS: Never knew you're 25 - thougt of someone younger. ;)
Then you started painting real late, didnt you`?

[God-Of-Zilla]

Yeah I started about 2-3 years ago, I was mainly doing 3d at that time and jumped on the 2d instead.
Kind of have had trouble with anatomy so far and will have to practise on a lot of things but it´s very fun and I like this Forum idea. :)
How old are you Duracel?

Edit - Ahh you can see the age in the profile, hehe. :) so you´re 21 then. Cool. You are gonna be the Master cause your work rocks now. :)
