Ifrit Splash

I followed Paper Mache's splash tutorial, but I did alot of it on my own. Followed the basic steps, but I used my own settings (for the most part) rather than his.

Please C&C and leave a comment in my DA

I see it from that tutorial . I like it alot except for the rings on the right side. They look out of place.

 

On the feet, the ring is going over his feet. I need to fix that. I made the layer showing for some reason <_<

 

its cool, but i dont like the lightning, it overwhelms it to much

 

good job i like it

 

-Triumph-, so far 2 people love the lighting, and 2 people don't like it. Namrac said it was too contrasted. Any way I can improve this?

 

it looks like most of the contrast is coming from the lighting, im ny opinion best way would be to tone down the Fill opacity of the layer if the bolts on it, if it looks to plain then just add some more filters like blur or spatter or something >_<

 

looks smexy
