you rule Marek! my only crit is that the pose is too symmetrical and centred... love the lighting!:bounce:

[Hideyoshi]

Yeeha, you rock! Mind-blowing details, man!

[bradyscott]

Very cool! I love that fire effect! Good textures and lovely attention to detail.

[andreasrocha]

Marek, your portfolio is stunning and this is another fine addition. 5 stars!

[LordMout]

When do you find the time to do this with all your job titles? I must agree with the other comment, it's too centered it gives "stiffness" to the entire picture. But again, if it's for a book cover or a poster it would fit! A lot of details in the background also, it takes your attention away...But other then that, it's an incredible piece of work! :applause:

[OmeN2501]

Thank you all for replies, I'm really glad you like it (especially when I have doubts about that piece). As for center composition it was clients request, my idea was more dynamic with additional sorcerers and lot of spell casting. And I know that I could pull it off better but again... artiisstt bloockkk :/
As for jobs, well I'm in my Zombie mode (especially now before Leipzig GC) sleeping 2-3h a day, working my azz of - the usual ;]

[Ikaa]

Stunning work!

[SylvanMist]

It's very nice! The only crit I have on it is that hte fire looks too photo/pasted compared to the rest of the piece. I think it would have worked out better if you painted it in.

[rubenmontecinos]

very nice...a great magical scene

[Ivy00]

This is great and as others have already said I love the details. It reminds me a little of the guy in Escape from New York movie.

[MichaelZHsee]

great stuff,i like especially the flame effects,good study of lights too:)nice work

[peterconcept]

Wow, this is amazing.

[CyborgJA]

well maybe you did not paint it with "the heart" but the final result it's beautiful !

[boutiquecraft]

Excellent work!:thumbsup:

[DerrickSong]

Not worry, it is a good painting, i like it. The fire flame is well done, it capture my attention I dont mind with the symetrical pose on the character if it use for book cover. The only crits is maybe you should add more magical spell element surrond him, good job!

[AlonChou]

the scence is great! the fire is so real! I love it!

[eol]

Great piece Marek !

About that composition and symmetry I can see you did lines that drive the eyes to a center spot above the characters head. This is common on sacred images and sacred art. Since its a sorcerer it makes sense what your client requested, and what you did about this request was just fantastic ! So it's a great piece ! 5 stars !

Cheers,

[Darkside25]

wow, this is great...no crits here hehe

cheers

[jimidv]

very impressive and misterious background and so well done flames .but I think that you can work more on its composition.

[milalu]

great work! z niecierpliwoscia czekam na nowe prace

[raphyel]

Quite evoking ang genuinely intruiging

[Descreet]

I really like this image it was done very well. I like the feeling of it. This image is very nice no matter how little effort you may or not have to put into to its its still very beautiful.
And no offense to how much effort you put into it and how long it took you, but the character kinda of looks like Jack Black.
No offense it might be my imagination.

[OmeN2501]

Thanks man - actually I was my own reference for that pic. Yes, yes I am little (or not so little ;] ) chubby and that's why the mage came out like this :]
And it took about 30h - but the work itself was more like 15. I had to rework a lot of stuff due to annoying artist block

[Herwin-du]

cool (http://kyena.deviantart.com/)

thx
