FXWARS! SUPERPOWERS!: Daniel Lezama (The Brute)

#21

Amazing job PD, the last version looks really great. My only nitpick would be the speed, though being a superpower it kinda looks appropiate to it, some kind of slo-mo Blue flame, very nice. My other critic is the reflection in the actor, it looks really strong for the enviroment, in broad dayligth and all. But despite those small details, it’s looking superb:applause:

#22

Hey dan that’s really coming along! It looks liek the flames don’t move up, like the become almost cloth like, do you know what I mean? Like slow moving or something. Lokksing really good tho. keep it up. Comping is coming along too!

The flames are looking really good. Seemed a little strange that his whole arm was on fire before the puff came up out of his hand. I’ll watch it a few more times and see if it still feels backwards or not. I think the blue flames are perfect. They look really hot.

#26

I too am enthralled by the flames.

Only crit I could add is that looking at the .mov, I noticed that the power burst follows a relativelly steady climb, somewhat like this:

But looking at the actor (especialy his hands) I couldn´t help notice that there´s sort of a spike in his outburst, something more like this:

Adding this initial spike to the intensity/radius of the flames would probably make it look more expressive, IMHO.

Just my 2 cents :slight_smile:

#27

Here is my final Version (for these Deadline, I will keep working on it :wink: ).

FxWars_Daniel_Lezama_TheBrute.mov (7 Mgs).

Thanks to all you guys for your critics and Tips, I do a special mention in the credits (sorry if I omitted somebody).

Good Luck to everyone in these challenge :thumbsup:
