Description Yes I know the flame is bad. I did that without references. I am happy with this one too. Though I dread most of the other types. Ugg. Mostly because some of them I am not sure what to do to make them interesting like steel or fighting. Dark might be hard too...

I am tired... sleep... need sleep... but I have psychology to go to right now.

That flame down the bottom is fantastic, the composition works very well and draws the eye across the whole length of the card, the subtle steam/smoke up the top is a nice tough as well .
Though I think where it's lacking is the actual fire -element- symbol. It really just looks kinda sloppy >.<. What I loved about the previous Electric one was how clean and defined it looked, and by comparison the fire, looks somewhat wonky and undefined. I may just be comparing it to heavily to the official energy, but I feel the points should be sharper, the lines smoother, the whole symbol does need to be more confident and less awkward.
I really don't mean to sound critical of it, but I just find this inferior to the previous, it lacks a lot of the power and that dynamic feel.

I guess I should admit that I am not very good at using the pen tool in copying stuff. I stupidly copied the symbol from a tiny symbol on a Flareon card.

I might go back and fix that but to tell you the truth, I do not terribly think it is inferior. I kind of like the more organic feel to it. I will have to think about it...

Thank you for your comment! ^^

Oh, the one on the sphere I traced from the original. I was referring to the bottom, attempted to be realistic flame. Thank you for commenting. ^^

Hey darling,
wow, I'm impressed, that flame is awesome, in speaking that you didn't use reference.
