no, no, I mean't really draw them. with a pencil on a paper. try it, it's really hard (for me atleast)

 

[Monovertex]

Hmmm.... http://www.tutorialwiz.com/realistic_fire/.

@lascha: hard?! not at all

 

[lascha]

hehe, small world, isn't it?

Edit: @smith: yes, hard.. draw one and show me (not on pc). with a pencil on a paper. then scan it in and show me ^^ if it's "not hard" ^^ hehe, fire is hard to draw because it changes it's form every microsecond

thats where i originally learned it from about 2 weeks ago.

[advertise] Yes, tutorialwiz is the perfect websire for all your photoshop needs, I use it all the time [/advertise]

EDIT: @ whitesock: You know that you can open a icon and "steal" the real border (wc3 boader) instead of making new ones.

Sure. Made in 5 minutes.

BTW, every thing changes it's form every microsecond. Even if the change it's so small that can not be noticed.

 

[Whitesock]

Thats pretty good. Only problem with it is that it's too, um, flowery I guess you could say. I think it has to many half-circles, but I'm a big critic, so don't listen to me.

EDIT: Could you crop that? It's a bit big.

 

[Monovertex]

Yeah, I know, but if I colorize it on computer, it will look better xD.

Rgith away.

 

[Whitesock]

I can probably make a better fire than that if I tried, but then again, how good something looks is a personal opinion.

EDIT: Here it is...

 

[lascha]

/drool..I can't even draw a candle on fire.. okay.. maybe i can, but that's the maximum limit.. can't do anything else ;D (except a bit manga )

 

[Whitesock]

Fire is probably the only thing I can draw. I can't draw at all on the computer though, which is why the selection tools are my friends.

EDIT: Who says GIMP can't do what Photoshop can?

http://www.tutorialwiz.com/fireball/

I think mine looks better.

Wanna see Manga?

My scanner sucks hard...


OK, Let's stop this. This is an icon contest, at least show icons

@Whitesock: Your fire is more realistic than mine, but I think that both looks good. And that fireball is indeed, better. BTW... Photoshop CS rules

:/ okay.. after this xD

 

[Whitesock]

Pfft! I can do better than that!

Now lets see. Hm...Google, Images, AHA!

I can't top that. Humans are too hard for me to draw (or huminoids for that matter).

 

[lascha]

didnt draw that.. a friend drew it when he was at my place hehe.. anyway.. icons.. hmm, any news?
