The fire effects are superb and the shading is nice too. The motion-blur is also decent. The little fixes to the textures and models are a lovely addition.
However, the whole picture is kinda... dull. The lack of notable changes to the contrast, curves and colouration of the piece makes it so that, once I get past looking at the sexy fire, everything else is somewhat flat and lifeless.
In this respect, Mosquito's edit was vastly more interesting and rounded. This is a great shame because you're pretty much the fucking God of effects, Vman, but the lack of really simple stuff like messing with gradients and contrast and things of that nature means your pictures don't really come to life, in my opinion.
[QUOTE=Mosquito;21896219]"Any notable edits will be featured in the final thread, so please don't make a new thread for your edits (I'm looking at you bubbo)"
:O Mine wasn't notable!
Heh, looks good Vman, your flames aren't super bright as mine.[/QUOTE]
Woops, forgot about that.
One moment.

Sorry?
Mosquito's hide the whole posing. Even is it's not perfect, I prefer Vman's.
Might I inquire how you did the fire?

[QUOTE=gtanoofa;21897933]I kinda agree with Chesty, Mosquito's is bright and you can say that is a movie poster and yours looks as it is just a frame in an overhyped movie... if you know what i'm saying.[/QUOTE]

Yes you may.
This picture is pretty good, not one of your best, not one of your worst.

[QUOTE=gtanoofa;21902642]Oh tell me you don't understand. I am being as more descrptive as i can. Your picture looks like a frame in a long movie, nothing special about it just a scene were shit goin' down fast. Mosquito's is alive and colorfull, it looks like a movie poster that reflects the frame of the movie which is your edit. Now try reading this.[/QUOTE]
I'm failing to understand your logic as to why one would be better than the other. If it looks like a scene from a movie, then it would have to look realistic and in motion. A movie poster would have to look more stylish and enticing. If something is realistic and something else is stylistic, that doesn't mean that one is worse than the other.
And what is the point of saying that it looks like it's from an "over-hyped" or "long" movie? How does that have anything to do with the picture?
Outstanding as usual.
The hovercrafts are giving me an Avatar vibe.

He's just being his usual self.
