Description Contest entry for 's Fanart Frenzy Contest .


>>"Up in Flames" Speedpaint <<
The sexeh flaming puppy shown here is Risk of 's comic THUNDERBIRD: Birth of a New Hero . He, like many of the characters in the story, is something of a canine superhero. His power, shockingly enough, is controlling fire, and he can burst into flames as well. This peice is meant to show him charging and the flames within just starting to consume him. Rage can do that to you. I'm aware of how cliche the phrase "Fight fire with fire" is by now, but I figured it worked quite well for him, considering that's almost exactly what he does. So I added it in.

Daaaamn! I'm pretty happy with how this came out! A couple spots are kinda rough here and there, but the pose is pretty catchy, the flames look good, and I like it in all. I used a tutorial for the flames, which you can see here . It's SO easy and SO awesome looking!!!

LOL, point taken! Although acording to my father, there is actually a method of controlling small wildfires by setting up a controlled burn around it and then extinguishing it, so by the time the wildfire gets to it, there's nothing left to burn. Apparently that's where the phrase is from, I dunno.

Oooooooooh.

Love the effects in this one!
And who cares if the phrase "fight fire with fire" is a bit cliche as you say, as you said, it goes well with the character.
