Just a couple of my new assassin, Talon Bliss.
It's a pity these were taken before she got her armor upgrade, but, alas, I like them anyway. I wish I had more ideas for effects, maybe something to up the mood of the pictures a bit.


Funny to look at an Assassin and think 'lethal' and 'quick' or 'deadly', and then you take a look at this picture and think, 'Hm, ballerina. No wonder they all die so fast.'





Both of these are mid-dance shots. I love the Assassin dance, there's so many different motions.






I'll post more with the newer armor at some point.

PS. These were all at Seitung Harbor right before I got sent off the island.

Some of you fellas need to be careful not to make the character look like he or she is floating over the backdrop. If his/her feet are in focus, so is the ground directly below them. Nevertheless, the pics are consistently quite pretty.

As for the OP, good pics Bethany. And yeah while the process is quite simple, you have a good eye for composition and a lot of patience to capture the "right" shot. Overall, some of the nicest GW-related fan work I've ever seen.

Just messing around with my first warrior, Aurik, for a bit.
Nothing special.
My favourite is the last one shown.

Sorry for size differences.










I would say I like the 2nd one is my favourite, I love the background, but the dark patch in his arm irritates me, so I may edit it a bit.
But the 2nd last and last are my favourites.

I have a few techniques myself to enhancing a screenshot, here's one I posted in the 'Post your Necro' or something thread. I haven't really done many for Guild Wars.



'tis far from perfect, but I thought it look pretty good, I may do more later.

platemail is metallic and doesn't dye the same way as the cloth monk armor. sorry, but silver is the closest to white you'll likely get.

It looks like the typical white combo S+Y+S. He just up'd the contrast on his picture. I'm not very fond of the effect, but it seems to be popular D:

Not the greatest result...but I like how it turned out...it's my new wallpaper xD Had to do a lot of dodge/burn to get him to look decent, and even now after looking at it again, he could use some more darkening, lol The mask never goes off his face, either...I made him look like Legolas(thankfully every legolas name I could think of was taken xD)...and then I realized Legolas is one ugly SOB! Was able to cover up the people in the picture too That tree was just irresistable and so easy to access...Tsumei ftw!

From what I can see the thread is bursting with creativity and I enjoy seeing the wonderful stuff being added on a regular basis.

Someone told me back in july to enter a screenshot contest over @ tyria.net so I went over and submitted the shot of Isako heading into Shiro's den. Well, to make a short story even shorter, I got third place.
