Here's the first thing I've made in Photoshop. I based it off Blizzard and then just changed the icecycles into meteors and fireballs. It's for a spell called Meteor Shower in a campaign I'm making. It's not great, but it's a lot better then what I though I'd be able to do :ggani: I can't quite figure out how to make the meteors look better. Anyone have any ideas? Constructive crits are welcome! EDIT: Sorry, I just realized this should prolly go in the gallery. Would a mod move it for me? :ggani: |

It's ok...but I suggest making the background glow redish in color. It just doesn't look natural with the "icy" colored background and fireballs shooting around. |

Updated version. It took me all weekend to figure out what it needed to look like ://// What color should I use for the background? Orange blends in too well with the fireballs... yellow ends up looking puke green... and red ends up being pink. Any ideas? |

Okay... I'm having problems getting the right image. Hope this one works :ggani: |

Okay, last update for some time unless someone has any ideas to improve it. I just added six shades of orange and yellow overtop of the blue and smudged it all in. At first, I didn't want the meteors to blend in with the background, but then I looked closer at the Blizzard icon and the ice does blend in the blue background, so what the hell. There's still a bit of bluish-purple where it changes from orange to black, but oh well. BTW, the reason I updated so fast is that I hought I'd be kicked off the computer before I could get anything more done, but I wasn't so I finished the icon. :ggani: |

i think you should take out the gradient background--just make it solid colour of the colour u used in bottom left also maybe make the meteors more detailed and...sorta raw looking if u know wat i mean?they way u did it in the third one looks a little TOO raw tho.i think the trails should all be as detailed as u did right behind the middle one,close to the actual meteor Jus some suggestiong---feel free to ignore |
