Description
This study was rather difficult to say the least. From what I observed from actual reference and my own memory, I found it difficult at first to decide what sort of shape and look I wanted for my fires as they tended to veer off from what I was wanting. You can see that in the three fires in the top right and toward the middle. But, as we progress to the bottom row. I began to take my time in figuring out how fires move and what forms/shapes they take. Now, when you see the two fire in the top left. That was the end result with me finally learning I wasn't giving my fires a proper wide base like they usually would and applying a bit of opacity to them see-through as you would an actual fire. Now, for the swords they gave me a bit of trouble as I unable to tell how to apply the colors I was being shown at first. But, later down the line it was the blemishes in the metal that gave me a bit of trouble as their shapes varied like the flames did. Once I reduced their size, I was finally able to move on and apply the necessary colors and effects that finish off the effect I was looking for. The same process can be said for the lava pools too as it was only the shape and the ripples in the lava that gave me trouble. In the end, if you find this helpful at all, then more power to you. I wish you all a good day.
