Description Where were you when our hearts were bleeding,
Where were you when it all crashed down
Never thought that you'd deceive me
Where are you now

Is your world just a broken promise
Is your love just a drop of rain
Will we all just burn like fire
Are you still there
- Let It Burn by RED


So a little background here. I have a song by RED called forever and it's one of my favorites. So I decided to download more songs by them, and I came across this one. After listening to it once through, it immediately stuck. And that's where the idea came from. Cool huh? It actually came out just as I imagined. Or at least very similar. Either way, it's one of my best, if not THE best. And it's the piece that finally got me to download a new photoshop just to smudge stuff. So now I have GIMP2 on my computer. Just for smudging. Yay! I want it critiqued a little, since this is a new thing for me, to be able to smudge stuff. And I need work on the highlights and such. So critiques please.....?

Work time - Numerous hours scattered over three days
Layers - God only knows....
Tools - Microsoft Digital Image Suite 2006 Editor, and GIMP2(just for smudging)

Sky and horse's breath done by me

I was thinking of buying it myself as a print(my dorm room is in need of more posters), and then disabling the print option. Any objections stockers?

From the way the pictures is it sounds like the words are from the horse aimed at humans I like the lighting on the horse, it's dramatic in lieu of the fires. I love the setting of the burning city and good jub with the dark orange red lighting behind the flames against the sky. It makes it seem like there's a glow on the cloud cover from the entire segment of the city being a blaze.

I do wonder what that brown bar across the picture where the stallion's chest is? Is that across the water where the city meets the water, or was it supposed to be a huge fence rail? That's the only thing that seems out of place in the picture to me. Other than that keep up the good work!

(I can't put this under the official critique) thing allowed by dA because I only have a free account. I hope this helps some though.
