This is what happens when you have a short attention span like me and can't wait 2 seconds for a response while chatting with somebody...You end up making weird things like this. xD

I love it! Blue and orange go really good together on the color wheel and I think you nailed it, Moko! One thing I think, however, is that the text competes too much with the actual artwork and draws too much attention to itself. After all, you wouldn't put words on the Mona Lisa. But it may just be my personal preference. :D Did you actually draw each shape by hand?

It's 2 different fonts, "Fire and Ice" is A Birth of a Hero Font, and "COLLIDE" is Plane Crash...Plane Crash only has capital letters if you use shift you get ding-bats (I think that's what you call the pictures for fonts. :lol )

Ahh, Thank you!
And yes I'm on GimpTalk too! :D


Thank you for all the comments! :D


Edit: I missed a comment!

@ Mariawendit:
Thank you! Nooo I didn't do each shape by hand, I did my own way of clipping mask and the rotation tool.
As for the text, I see your point, but the piece looked empty w/o the text! D:
Thank you for the comment!

Yeah, I know what you mean by a piece seeming empty. I just ran into that yesterday. You win!

The other day I did something similar to what you did, only with colored pencils and by hand. It took FOREVER.

K wait. lolz
For the bit of "shattered" pieces, I used fuzzy select in random spots and then unselcted at random, then on a new layer pasted and moved around/rotated a few times.

Edit: Internet is slowww, I'll upload tomorrow when I have upgraded internet k?

Seems uploading the XCF here timed out GimpChat for me, and using sendspace disconnected my internet. LOL
I didn't get upgraded like I had hoped. :(
