Description

The far eastern edge of the Sunerian kingdom is a vast desert, barren except for several precious oases. At these oases the king has posted sentinels to guard the borders of the kingdom and the very valuable water found there. This sentinel is on his guard as strangers approach...one hand at ready on his sword, the other ready to work magic. For with a wave of his hand, the seemingly inanimate scorpions at his feet magically transform into clawing, stinging death for any trespassers or water thieves.... Larger image is more crisp...ZOOM! My thanks to Lynn (lwperkins) for giving me the opportunity to experiment with her new textures for prae's Euros outfit, Glorious Euros. The idea for this image actually came from one of the textures called Sun King, but I ended up using the Purple Reign texture because the color really popped in this scene. Thanks also to my friend rogue29730 who tipped me off on masked layers for postwork in Photoshop. It sure makes postworking easier and more fun....there are nine masked layers in this image. Merci beaucoup, mon ami! Thanks to all of you for the look and your comments! I appreciate you all! Previously "To Stare a Nightmare in the Eye" (violence advisory):

That's right, masking is the word. Then if you don't like the result, you can delete the mask, make a new one and work the way you want it. It's better than the eraser which is not recommended at all. Fantastic work, as always, brother.

and you made a good color choice mario,me personally likes using the outfits from prae on hiro4 as he is a more delicate character i can use the clothing with more girlish attitudes on the hiro lol.but hey thats me. excellent presentation and nice textures.
