Congrats djuby!

Here is my submission for the Black Bishop.

[khaalis]

Thank you! Thank you! I will try to make this week’s entry but I’m heading out on vacation this week so may not get to. If not, I’ll add a black one when I get back just for the fun of the set. Already have the idea in my head… now I just need the time to make it.
Cheers!

Thanks Weilyn. Still learning but thanks.

Here is my Pawn entry and a comparison shot of the 2 pieces side by side.

Ok, since I misinterpretted after seeing the other king, here is my Black Pawn (and the comparison between King and Pawn).

[khaalis]

How many entries can we submit?

[khaalis]

Thanks everyone. Here was one I made for the Chess piece entry.

Ok, I’m not seeing the poll on the Blog, so can I cast my vote here?

prswirve’s A Long Way Home
I’m not even certain how prswirve managed some of this.

Djuby: Thanks for the compliment. What snipping tool do you use?

Kaylin88100: Thanks for the info. Works great for the sides, but it still keeps cutting off the feet.

Just a small annoyance as it means I can’t export a clean transparent version.

[khaalis]

Thank you everyone.

Here is what I’ve come up with so far after everyone’s comments. I chose try and keep it a little more subtle.

[khaalis]

So how is this for a facial redesign?

As to the “power expression”, would a “third eye” centered just above her eyes and done in the same transparent blue of the current expression work better?

[khaalis]

Thanks for all of that. I did mask the legs in 3 parts and it worked great. Still working and thinking about the eyes/power. I agree that it “should” in actuality be invisible, but that’s really hard to pull off in an art piece. I’ll have to see if I can make her look more “concentrating” facially but not sure where to go with that just yet. I may just go with some corner glow to the eyes.

[khaalis]

Thank you one and all.

Hammerknight: The forehead rings might work. That’s a good idea.

Vampyrist: Thats a cool combination of effects, though I get more of a kind of smoky residue after an energy blast kind of feel from it. However, it gives me some ideas for mixing elements.

Kaldath: I’m still very new here so when you say zypping, you mean just the use of a gradiant circle in a “glow-like” color correct? Like the eye on Vampyrist’s sample?

Livewyre: Having scene the face, I take it you are saying its too expression neutral? You’d try to find a way to make the face more expressive, like more in concentration?

Herr D: Ok I’m going to take a chance here since I can’t really find anything that says the style this is based on is copyrighted and there are tons of nockoff costumes in RL out there, so… If a mod needs this taken down just go ahead and do it or let me know and I can take it down.

This is the full body shot of what I have so far.

PS: I really need to rework the boots as well since they don’t seem to fit the body even though if I shrink them any more the legs show.
