Betcha that you couldn't tell that was a girl huh? I think it's in the expression.

I'll experiment with this though.

Edit: Here, does this help? Oh yeah, here's the site. http://mtglair.de/editor.html

I was trying to pull a Marko Djurdjevic by changing up the character a bit instead of making her another perfect woman that anyone can draw. http://www.conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=21705
I see her nose it too long now, okay so I changed it.

Edit: Slayer is a new one I made up, Double Strike has been out since Mirroden I think.

Wow, I think you did a great job with these pictures. I really like the see-through effect on the demons bane. The only problem I have is with the warrior lady, her face looks a little wierd because one of her eyes are a little higher than the other. Other than that it looks great.

slayer is totally imaginary but double strike came with the new mirrodin series and up... also affinity, sunburst, and all this other junk

*i feel im more interested in the cards than in the art lol*

The website was broken before, so I couldn't get ahold of the new version where it doesn't look like her breasts have no nipples.

I also didn't have enough time to fix enough things, because I have to go to a family reunion quite soon. At least I get free drinks.

Anyways. Her nose was the largest problem. It looked like it was on a different plane than that which is perpendicular to her face, where noses usually lie. Also, it looks like a nose where the viewer is seeing it from above, rather than from the side like it should be in this picture. Another problem is that it had a line. When you're painting, try not to use lines, but use edges. There is no such things as lines in the real world. Her nostrils looked a little strange too. I also changed the angle of her mouth, fixed the angle of her eyes, and made them looking in the same direction. I made her chin smaller and made her jawline more pleasing.

Her face was too long and the features where placed too high up on the skull, so I added mor ehair on top. I also added a few stray strands to suggest movement.

I changed the color of the background, because it was the same blue as her clothes. I desaturated the blue cloth, and darkened the harder blues on her. I also upped the contrast.

That's about it, and just a quick fix, but maybe it's an improvement.

I really like that Mana Beast. The concept and composition is just excellent, and I think if I tightened up the rendering, it would be even better. If I can find the time, maybe I'll do that.

Later.

ya now it doesnt seem as scary as before...

Thanks Ogre! As Shadow pointed out she lost some flair, but you do know what you're talking about. The desaturation on her clothes made them more realistic, how did you do that? I like how like how you changed up the "smile" line, I think I'll do a paint over of your paint over to get a better effect with that I had in mind when I started. Thanks for fixing her nose, I'm still getting used to that whole thing. I didn't realize her eyes as much before, I may make them better looking. Another thing is the rigid jaw line, I liked that about her. I feel I pulled a Djurdevek on that part. (However you spell his name)

How's this? I (think) lightened the line on her nose, changed the "smile line" a bit, made the eyes a bit smaller and stuff, I like this version of her but I will work her to perfection. Another thing, has anyone noticed anything with the hands? I personally don't think that they fit on the sword together because they are both kind of angled differently.

Well, her right arm look kinda strange, forearm (i think... that part which connect to hand) is too broad and hand looks funny, prolly coz of size and angle. Also the sword looks like one-handed and light, giving no reason to hold it with both hands. She culd point at enemy or something wit right hand instead. Just my thoughts.

Gnashbeak, the Defiler - not a legend but has the same ability.

I am here.

And her face kinda scares me for some reason... it doesn't deform right. I'd say that her... wait... Ogre did it already, listen to him.

I like Gnashbeak though... he's cool.

i see in gnashbeak that youve got the 'legend' thing out, the fact is you dont need it, just fit a 'drake legend' in the creature type and ppl will know you cant have 2
Edit: whoops, didnt read that line...
really nice painting effects tho... you know what i mean
