Well,

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you *The Dark Sorcerer* fanning the flames...

I'm not sure yet..... Hoping for some opinions :D

Michiel, good work overall, quite scary... But one suggestion - emphasize the teeth more - whiten them more and do something to them in some weird way maybe :D

Oh my God! Great idea! Scarry!

If I may suggest, and if you can do a reshoot without killing anyone, maybe try to get rid of the door hinges and the scorcerer's shadow on the background.

I like your concept , I think it needs to be refined. I have some ideas but I am hesitant to offer them up because I might use the tricks I have up my sleeve.:scratch

Some light on your face from below might be very atmospheric.

Anyhow it still is a cool and scary concept .:clap

I agree. I think that a black backround with a small up light would really add to this. Very cool idea!

Uuh, that's scary!:uhoh
The lightning of your face is a lot more realistic this time...great! But I liked the flame off the 1st picture on the left side better. Maybe you can combine both.
