Well, as you probably know, since I can't draw, I have resorted to Photoshop. And Photoshop is good.

Image
I made this from a screenshot I took of ESIV. If you don't know what that is, just know that I'm a nerd...
It's simple, but I thought it looked pretty cool...I personally feel like the electric-y orb thingie contrasts a lot with the arch.

Yeah.

Elder Scrolls, huh?

I like it, but I agree with your statement about it contrasting. You might try just a slight blur only on the orb; I think it stands out a little too much now from the rest of the image.

But it's impressive! :)

Ack! I combined the layers before I applied the radial blur. >.<
I guess I'll just have to remake it someday.

Thanks for the feedback. :D

You're quite welcome.

You might try using a non-uniform select tool to select just the area you want, and then apply the blur. It should stay contained in the selected area.

Though I really do think it looks very good.

You know what doesnt make sense?
If the orb is emitting light, why doesnt the arch have light on it? I mean if you shine a flash light on something Im sure itll be illuminated.
You shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, instead, you should read every single book to see what every book is about before you even come close to judging its viability.

Yeah, I thought about that right after I combined the layers and saved it. :D

If I decide to redo it, I'll see if adding a lightsource makes a difference.

That's really good. A lot better than the bacon drawing thing you made a while back.

Awesome game too. I got Morrowind like 3 years ago, never really got around to completing it.
