OMG man I knew you would make an awsome gallery so:
My fave is Street Shaman its awsome how you blended the real stock background with a fictional character making look like it belongs there.
Everything about Boundless is nice exept the text, the text is bold and hard so it doesn't really blend but its positioning is cool.
Stunning is real stunning lol, I like the red effects and matching text with the large white blocks on the sides.
Welcome to Oblivion is another picture that has well blended elments and good effects.
Afro Kush in colour is better in my opinon but the BW looks good.
I hate that stupid mario render Galaxy switch the background doesn't really blend with it so overall i dont like it!
Fallen is nice but I really dont like how the black wing goes over the text it puts me off the whole tag.

Overall nice choices, Street Shaman is really what I love the most in this gallery :)

Thx for the comments Nazo and Kyen.

@Kyen: Well Galaxy Switch was a request, and I've been known to make my requests not look as good as my actual tags. Requests are evil! As for Boundless, guess I'll switch the one I have up with the none text version XD

Well Stunning wasn't made with a no text version like some of my tags, so...yea...I could fix grainy with GREYC, but I don't intend to go back and fix these. I rather use all comments to improve future tags.

Those 2 are just amazing. I like the effects on them showing the characters. Sort of like an aura. It looks great. Keep up the good work:)

Update with four of my newest tags and some avatars.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arrancar Abyss: Grimmjow of Bleach || It was a gift for someone w/ avatar.


Blood Bath: Reptile of Mortal Kombat || It was a request.


Business: Soul of Soul Eater || It was about time I make a new main tag. When I saw this render, I knew it was perfect for it.


52 Pick Up: Gambit of X-Men || It was a gift for someone. I asked who wanted one, and told them to name a character.


Silver's Rings: Silver of Sonic the Hedghog || It was a request.

GIMP. Really? This is by far the best GIMP work I've ever seen. o.o It looks incredible. It's even better than a lot of the Photoshop work I've seen. That said, Boundless is my favorite. I adore Laharl far too much, haha. I really like the Gambit avatar too. :3

I'm slightly stuck-up and aesthetics-obsessed, so it's highly unlikely you'll see me use anything but shiny Pokemon.
Deal with it. :]

IDK why so many people underestimate GIMP :O I guess because so many people use PS ppl assume it's way better. Little do most know, GIMP can do almost everything PS can, sometimes more. GIMP is way better IMO for personal use, PS should be purchased legally for business stuff.

Your stuff is pretty great, but they all basically show the same style. You should broaden your horizons a little, explore other styles like renderless, vector, minimalistic, scenic (which you sorta have in some actually), etc.

But yeah, good stuff!

Well these aren't all my tags. Refer to "Tag History" in my signature to see all my past styles and vector tags. As for render less/abstract...meh I planned to at one point but never got around to it.

Love the effects on blood bath. I should really learn how to do that bubble effect. xD
Thx, the bubble-like effects are just nicely placed fractals curtsy of greentunic of dA/GIMPtalk.

What happened to that one you had currented before, with the dark greenish background of a city or something and the guy in the maroon? That one was awesome, your best I think.
I agree with YOOM-TAH, your Wanted tag was incredible. Out of the ones you've posted, I like Business and Boundless the most.
Well it's kinda old now, and as I said, these aren't all my tags. You'd have to refer to the link in my signature to see -most- of the tags I ever made. But anyway, I really did like WANTED, but it was time for a change. From Wanted, to Business...think my next main, which won't be any time soon, will be Captured. All based on the aspics of a con man.

@Everyone: Thx for all the great comments.

Update #3 with only an old tags and three new ones. Sorry for the double post but..kinda have to :o

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wanted: Shinjiro Aragaki of Persona 3 || Old main tag, but people kept mentioning it.


Virtual World: Casshern of Casshern Movie || It's a great movie and I just felt like making a different style of tag.


Reigun to the Face: Yusuke of YuYu Hakusho || It was a request.


Afraid of the Soul Eater?: Soul of Soul Eater || It was a request from Nazo.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I shall now focus on sprite tags and real life tags for the rest of October, excluding some requests and contests.
BTW any one mind telling me if I should consider "Virtual World" a real life tag since the movie did use real life actors.

So I haven't been active recently mainly because my GFXing has been dead. I kinda took a break/hiatus but I'm trying to get back into the habit of making tags a lot.

Here is an update of 6 new tags, 3 of which are from 08 and you may have seen before I went MIA.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reita City: Reita of the GazettE || It was done for visual kei based contest for the now dead GFX group.


Tokyo West: Kanye West || It was a request.


Clouded Prince: Marth of Fire Emblem || It was done for Project Nintendo, which I assume is dead?


Maverick Space: X & Zero of Mega Man X || I was trying to get back into GFX. I saw a Mega Man/Zero tag by someone on another forum, so I made one.


Rain & Pain: Pain of Naruto || Still trying to get back into GFX. I saw a Pain tag by someone on another forum, so I made one.


Return of Afro: Afro of Afro Samurai || STILL trying to get back into GFX. Random inspiration after finding out Afro Samurai: Resurrection aired the 25th


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I'll post again soon with some larger, non tag, graphics. I just don't wanna jam too much in one post.
