Description Series 1of 4

Edit 1 - imagery tweak
This is loosely based on the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse idea of =DeathsExtinction This is my depiction of the Rider of Apocalypse- Death. In accordance to some guidelines given by =DeathsExtinction 's idea... It is after all dedicated to him!

I'm sorry I couldnt make this black and white like discussed in the guideline, it just didnt work the way I wanted. But I did get him...er... 'Her' as a prerequisite, blonde hair and dark garb... well half of her that is 0.o

I made the scyth my self... and it took a bit of thought The scenery is mine... if you havent noticed my new iD... it is the same place, same sunset.

Hope everyone enjoys!
Edit 1.2

Very good, my congratulations. But some places are a bit too dark.. Landscape could be more darky / fogy to gain a spooky climat. It's a very good work and i think that it can be a bit better. Then it could be something brainsplashes

thank you.

In terms of improvement, can you elaborate a bit more on what you'd do to improve the image?

Down part of girl is very dark. We can't see details. Upper is much more lighty.But horse don't have the same lighting. There's no contrast like on girl. A bit of fun with dodge and burn tool can correct it a bit. Bout water.. Fog, color ballance can bring more dramatic climat here. After all one more time color ballance and hue / saturation to set all colors for spooky climat
It's only my vision of this pic. Idea is great and picture in this moment is really good. You can be really proud of it if you do any changes or not

Nice nice nice, in full view though the lady looks way more rendered than the background. Background looks a little bit more pixelated than she, and not in a distance sort of way. My answer of course would be to stick a gaussian blur on that thing, but god knows I've never been subtle! ^_^

Did you add th cloak? That's cool!

This is really good. The only thing I'd look at changing is the size of the horse - it looks more like a pony compared to her... Not that I don't appreciate the idea of the Four Pony Riders of the Apocalypse! :giggles:

unfortunately... i can no longer change that aspect of the image... i flattened the model with the horse in my PSD file, which common sense dictated not to. oops.
I guess the horsewoman of apocalypse in this alternative version, got the cheap end of the barn

make sure you wipe your keyboard afterwards... soggy keyboards tend to be 'electrifying' things!

Take to your own ideas and time Revelations and Famine may cause problematics with their hair colors...but regardless I know you'll do great

If you decide War...there's a bit of a kick-ass feature of his (like what I was doing here [link] )...it's the guy's eye...
...it's a 'damaged' eye, allowing for a subtle, electrical effect. Though not necessary...
However...if you find someone much better to use, feel free to...(I haven't made up my mind to continue using *M47R1X ...his stuff isn't as I thought they'd be as he continued making stock...)

Btw...with your permission...after all is done...
I'd like to take the final products, create a desktop, and make a 'theme' to my journal/ID with them...
