EDIT: Updated contrast, and the orange is more to my liking now. Also added some touch ups to the lighting and texture.

Strangely enough, I think that the contrast of the original one worked better, now don't get me wrong, this is still pretty sweet, but the red(yellow?)-hot metal was always the focus of the picture, so I think it oughta be slightly more pronounced.

But if you like it toned down more, far be it from me to try and convince you otherwise.
Good stuff.

Yeah Ive always been a fan on contrast. And this did pop a lot more before I added the fog. I might post one with more background and more story to it, without the fog.

also it seems every time I do the fire effect I get a different orange, There are so many oranges to choose from!! lol

So I noticed...
The original had a bright orange tone, this ventures a bit into the yellow area, while the female version was almost red.

I usually have my favourite colors memorized.
(but I keep forgetting them, so instead I just remember where to get them... )

Thanks! I think this captures what I intended with the last one, That sense of intimidation.

I should find the PSD file for the older one and get the orange from there I will update this soon. Thanks for the input.
