Description The ancients had mastered the control of the elements to such a degree that they were able to contain the raw elements within magical spheres. These spheres could then be used by a master wizard in his own magical spells, adding an immense power previously undreamed of.

Of course, some cynics said that the wizards simply put water and a stone inside glass spheres, had an empty one to represent air, and the fire one was just a small flame magnified by the glass.

Naturally, they were branded as unbelievers and hunted down.

Overall the piece is quite dark, but I was concerned that if I made it much lighter, the fire wouldn't have the same impact.

I always like to put a little story behind a piece, or at least something to give people a chance to get more out of a piece than just the image.

Yes, I like Bryce as it lets me mess around with primitives when I'm not awake enough to do things with Poser.

Are we talking about the science of alchemy or the trickery of alchemists?

ll-Nightwolf-ll In reply to xalthorn [2005-10-07 00:11:05 +0000 UTC]

I'm not sure could you explain what the trickery of alchemists is?

xalthorn In reply to ll-Nightwolf-ll [2005-10-07 11:43:43 +0000 UTC]

I mean that throughout history, whenever you get a population with a mix of uneducated and educated, the educated find ways of 'fooling', 'tricking' or otherwise making themselves look more impressive to the uneducated.

Not really, I didn't do chemistry for very long at school and I have the utmost respect for the assorted materials used (mercury, phosphorus, plasma, etc). I wouldn't mess around without a severe amount of training
