Description
This was originally for ~ShadowLotus2 's contest.

I had started to consider this a blight on my gallery, it was so terrible looking. I seriously don't know what I was doing. The only thing that kept me from deleting it was the fact that I was actually really fond of the concept and composition - it was just executed like bawls.
While trying to decide what pieces to print, I thought it would be really nice to be able to print this - but I would never print it looking as butt fugly as it did. So I decided to fix that. SO Axel got a massive makeover and paint-over. Oh, what photoshop does to a man. <3
Somehow he now kinda looks like Ewan McGreggor O_o. Was entirely unintentional.

Can I say "this is hot" without making any sort of pun? :'D
Anyways, you did a great job, I love the coloring and the way his body is formed like smoke curling upwards almost, not to mention his flaming hair. Nice work, definatly. c:
But...I thought Axel's eyes were an emerald green though...XD

I really like what you've done with his coat. Honestly, that seems to be what draws my attention the most with this, and the way you use complimentary colors is really sweet. I would totally buy a print of this just to study it.

This is AWESOME!
I dont know how it where before you fixed it, but I really loved this whole composition!
Axel is looking handsome!
His weapons are looking SO COOL and dinamic.
I loved his whole "angry-n-going-to-beat-u-up" pose!
The Key-hole BG was Brilliant!
I loved the fire-on-hair touch, the movement of his coat from up to all the way down, and that lil heart on the bottom!
-_- I . LIEK . IT!

Ewan McGregor as Axel would be total WIN. 8D
I love the fire in the hair. Really awesome picture!

Wow, that is amazing what you did with his weapons,I can never get perspective done especially with hard edged things.
Hif face seems to stand out from the rest of the picture since it is way more detailed than his clothes but perhaps that was intentional? All in all this is an amazing piece! I say this even though I don't like Axel much.
