http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Couple questions.
1) Does Dark-Light-Dark Give the best look in your experience, or would dark to light be better?
2) If you were to do some lightning-looking bits on the fire sword, what colour would you use?
3) I know the lightning is a bit too thick, i've since acquired a skinnier brush, and I think really thin lines would look best, but a buddy says the thick lines look good. Thoughts?

Also the blending is good but the lightening pattern needs more depth, build up your streaks with 3 colours and much thinner and less linear in form.
Like this but more restrained (img from google search - not my wrk)

Over all tho they are still pretty good to go, hope that helps look forward to seeing further attempts!

And not go further than red for that one.
