First off I like this one alot better than the other one. I like the edits that you used on scorpion, and the fact that you 'made' Skarlet. The whole idea of the fatality is cool. The skeleton coming from the hole in the ground looks good. I can see hell in there . It's nice to see that you didnt just copy and paste the Soul Chamber background onto the Pit background. You actually edited them so they look nicer. The only thing I dont really like is that flaming skull ripping through her. I dont really know where it came from seeing how it is moving downward and the other one is coming upwards from hell. Nice job nontheless tho.

You already know what I like about it. Good Job.
I havent gotten a reply from you on chat days...

Nice, man. Scorpion's pose with the broadsword is pretty sweet, but I particularly like the fatality idea itself. From what I can see, it appears that the sliced victim is being devoured by flaming skulls emitted by Scorp. Nice job on the backround as well(looks like a region of the netherealm). Very good, man.

wow this is great from the whole concept 2 the eaditing i love it mostly the background tho but still awsome work

-Foot

nice job illu§ion..im new to this..i hope i get as good as u..

Nice redo .
I like it a lot.

I also can't seen much to point out really, other than a couple of things that might be nice additions/edits.

The lifebars. You kinda mixed them up, which I guess is fine as I'm guessing the fake doesn't reallly pertain to a particular game. But still, they look good. Though, just a note, if they are meant to be MK:DA, then skulls for win icons although I can't remember if the lifebars disappear or not.

Shadows. Another torn subject, heh. Technically in the 2D games the shadows dissapear, so that's fine, although if it's meant to be from MK:DA then they wouldn't dissapear as the shadows are all coded in because it's 3D. I guess they aren't so important though.

I would like to see perhaps a nice flaming glow on his sword considering he is summoning firey things .

But still, the sprites, background, reflections, effects, blood and everything else, look great to me .

I'm going to have to give this a 9.5/10.
As I said, a nice flaming effect would be nice, or something to make his sword a bit more exciting, as he is using his powers, but still, excellent fake. Definately the best you've put together.
Nice work (btw, highest rating I've ever given , although, I didn't rate VenoMark's Reptile/Shao Kahn fake ).

A lot of improvement here! Really good job on your fake.
4 things you need to correct imo:
1. Shadows, you can edit sprites well, insesting shadows should be a piece of cake for you. It adds detail to the fake.
2. Scorpion's leg; I think they are a little to skinny compare to the rest of the body.
3. Scorpion's pads with the skulls. They are suppose to be upper and not on the knees. And the pads are in his other outfit.
4. The flaming Skull; It think you should have put an effect for the flame imo.

Those are little things I know, but you would have earned a 5 from me if they would have being like that.
Other than that, I like the rest, the fatality idea, Scarlet's sprite, the blood and the Background.

4/5! Good Job!!

Plz luv meh again, Timsmk and MaxDam.



About the shadows...the floor was too dark and adding them will not be visible enough.

Thanks, for the replies everybody. .

Worth looking at...?
Yes


I remember your first fake picture, which also featured Skarlet. My god... can we say major improvement?!?!!
I am not going to take a big list of strict expectations and contrast it with what's in your fake picture. I am going to point out what I like, and what I dislike.

The picture quality is great. The only things that are blurry are the fireballs, which in my opinion shouldn't be in the fake picture.
Scorpion's stance looks goofy; he should be in a stance to represent the move he did to slice Skarlet into half. You did a good job drawing his sword, very good job. It looks realistic.

I love the background idea, all the way up until I see the big face and mouth from the Soul Chamber. The skeleton coming out of the "well" and grabbing Skarlet is an awesome idea. You did a good job editing the skeleton's arms as well. I am not too crazy about the clouds or the torches. I don't think the moon should be red.

There is too much of a blood splatter to see the upper body of Skarlet, or maybe it's that fireball. I like the font you used, even though I personally like to use the traditional MK fonts in my fakes. Good job on Scorpion's sprite edit. I have seen better, but ask me if I can do better. NO.



Yep... I think it's safe to say that since my absence, and "retirement" of fake pictures, my once "students" have surpassed me. Keep getting better Illusion. Have I returned to the forums? No, just stopped by to see what's up.
And one last thing, I am sick of seeing Skarlet in your fakes

OMFG! Oh man, blacksaibot I fucking miss you man. . Even though you are stopping by and whatnot, I still want to give you a big thanks for everything. Because of your patients you had with me, I learned a lot over the years. Especially now that I have Photoshop, but the problem is...it is only a trial version...again. But heh, thanks for taking time and making that awesome reply.

I hope everything is working out for you and all. Good luck with your studies. I am soon to be at your shoes too with scho...eh college. =/.
