That pic is awesome, how long did it take you? What did you use? How did you do it? You should do Graphics tutorials on YT! :p
It took me a few hours. I dunno, maybe in total 10 or so?

The first draft was drawn by hand. Everything else is done in Adobe Fireworks.

How did I do it? Masking. Lots and lots of masking. Now I'm really glad that I learned that "group as mask" thing two years ago - it makes things look awesome.

This art demands a duality card series to be created in its honor!

I finally got to resizing this thing, and now it's ready to be used as card art...

What'd be awesome is if you make a series of art that has the same basic format, but for each pair of elements. Like for fire and water, instead of wings maybe a giant flame and icicle, red and blue colors rather than purple and yellow, and change the art in the corner.

Also, could you add the sun and moon in the black and white?

No, you may not. This is my first piece of real art, and I do not want to give it away. Professional artists like VRT are more generous; but I'm not a professional artist, so it's more difficult for me to create art of this quality.

Easier said than done, man... As I said above, I'm not a professional artist. This one image took me like 10 hours. Wings are easy enough to draw, but for flames and things like that I imagine them to be considerably more difficult.

If you really want it then sure, but now I'm too lazy.

You should do graphic tuts with all diff programs like Gimp or Paint.net or Photoshop, please? I can only use GIMP :p

As I said before, I'm not a professional artist. I'm only a high school student. I have never even used Gimp or Paint.net before. If you want tutorials, ask VRT.

Wow, man. Just...wow That looks absolutely fantastic. Really professional and beautiful. The only grip I has is that I wish the outside of the moon didn't go full circle (instead more of a crecent with a complete gap extending out the left side).

You did this without photoshop or gimp, without any professional training? Amazing, kudos (and karma) to you.

I used Adobe Fireworks. You think I drew this by hand?! :P

Thanks for the compliment and karma :)

Haha, no, it just looks like something I'd find on deviantart by some graphic design professional.
