Lame cliche speedpaintingDoes it hurt? Do you feel the roaring fire eating up your insides? Are you sad? Sad because of this blazing inferno that is you? Or are you just mad because I ate your birthday cake?

Wow, that's so gorgeous. It really looks like there's something just barely below the surface, like all of the inside is composed of molten awesomeness. C: I love this sort of glowy coloring, any tips on achieving the effect?
Beautiful work, anyway. (:

This is so pretty and beautiful and yet so sad. Even when you say that you have speeded things up, the life in your pictures is there.

I just want you to know that this picture inspired an entire RP session on a game I'm a part of. You'll be able to find the log on marvel-gmstaff on Livejournal in the very near future. :>

It's not cliche at all o.o
I agree with the first person; this actually looks sad where most lava-things typically have an angry feel about them. Great job on everything! The muzzle in particular looks great ^_^

Holy crap! This is amazing. I hope you don't follow through on your journal entry and leave DA.
I don't even know what to critique. It looks beautiful. Like I would imagine a creature emerging from lava or something.

Well it WAS my birthdaycake afterall, but hey, I can share.
Now ONTO THE SPEEDPAINTING: The way the fire curves with the fat of the neck is a little strange but still delightfully cool. Of course, your use of colors to highlight the flesh about the body is very good, and the way the firelava seems to melt off of the face makes him seem as if he's melting into nothing. The smoke coming out of the mouth was a very, very nice touch, and the light contrasting with the dark background is very neat. His eye intrigues me, it is as if he is crying out lava, or crying out in pain. Of course, the eyebrow is beautiful, and i'm in awe since I can't do eyebrows to save my life. You added color ontop of the head as well, to give it depth, that's a really, really nice touch. Overall this is a neat/creepy picture. When I first saw it I didn't think he was in pain at all, though. More as if this is natural for him. Seeing it now though it changes slightly. Oh well.
+1 egohug for you. YA DID GOOD. :>
