[spoiler=My Short Story]It was the year 200 B.C. I was one of the many involved in a war between 2 opposing kingdoms. Our battlefield was an abandoned camp of a former defeated ally. As I lay at the front line, I stared into the oncoming forces. Their faces were just as cold as those of my own allies. We readied ourselves as this was the final battle of our long, bloody war. Our king positioned us into our places, strategically commanding us in motions seen by our enemies. At dawn, first blood was shed. The siren sounded, symbolizing one of our men had been slain. Sweat rain down from my forehead. One false move and I would be the next to fall. I readied my sword in anticipation for an attack.
The siren was sounded again, twice this time meaning the playing field was even again. I approached the corner of a tent with caution. With sword in hand, I rounded the corner swiftly and came face to face with another foot soldier. I swung my sword at him, only to have it blocked with a swipe of his. I rebalanced myself and charged at him head-on. Our swords clashed and recoiled back at us. My opponent took advantage and came lunging back. I narrowly sidestepped it. I reached for my dagger as my opponent rammed me with his shield as he fell. My dagger was still intact, so without warning I shoved it into his chest as we lay on the ground. He gave a sharp screech before his body became lifeless.
I retrieved my weapons on the ground and collected a reward from my opponent. His shield was of value in battle. I propped it on my back and sounded my horn. For the next few hours I saw no battle as I tracked thru the camp. Sirens were heard from all over the area, both of defeat and victory. But now the horns were beginning to seize. Now there were only a few left unscathed. There were no cries of joy from either side yet, both rulers were still alive. As I reached my opponent’s side, there were bounties of weapons and armor piled high as the sky. I took the best of what I needed and headed back to protect my king.
My feet almost gave away as I ran. I had everything that was necessary for victory at my hands. I was the most feared warrior on the battlefield. In the distance I heard the footsteps of horses. I crouched down by a tree and brought up my bow and arrow. I aimed at where the sounds were coming from. A horse came trotting into view with a rider on it. I let go of the arrow. It soared thru the air and met its target. It made contact. I ran up to the fallen rider as it crawled in the same direction. Stealthily I came up behind him. His stomach was bleeding badly with the arrow punctured into it. I decided to end his misery, so I stepped on his stomach causing the arrow to go all the way thru. The horse ran off at the sight of this. I sounded the horn with victory in my heart as I marched ahead.
The breeze had a certain feel in it today. It was going in the same direction as I was. It was a pleasant feel. It filled me with pride and hope. As I approached my army’s camp, I slowed down feeling that the war had ended. I held my head up high as I scouted the area for my allies. My eyes came upon a man that was walking towards me from a nearby forest. I raised my sword at him and screamed at him. As I took a closer look at him I noticed he had the king’s symbol. I took my guard down and went to congratulate him. I approached him and let out a sigh as I stopped. I went down on one knee with my face down propped up on my sword. I raised my head to look at him. As I did I was stabbed with an arrow in the chest. I looked back down, blood was rushing out. I looked back up at the man who I no longer knew. With a smirk he said, “Looks can be deceiving”. I lay there as I had been fooled by my opponent. There was nothing more I could do. My body was paralyzed on the ground as I took my final breath. Everything stopped; I was no longer part of the world. I was just a pawn.

I just got back into the dragon business as a hobby. :D

I've always wondered how people can make the fractals flow so well with the subject. Lighting as well; if there was one thing I could never master, it would be lighting.

But yeah, I kinda gave up on that whole thing. I'd rather use Photoshop cause it's a lot more user friendly and it has more widgets.

Rotating them and smudging a bit can do wonders to the tag. I've always wanted to make a vector tag but I've never actually tried.

GIMP is still beast too me.

Desu. Nuff said.

Did you see his response to my rant? Total blasphemy. To be honest, his annoyance of us is only his own hypocrisy. >_>

This was a test for my smudging when it came to create fire for the background. Fractals just enhanced it. [quote name='☽☖☠☗☾JAX☼COB☽☗☠☖☾' timestamp='1319336533' post='5594964']

I use green tunic's a lot. The background could change. I need text for this. And it is a wip.
