hmm why is it so blurred?

the elf looks quite good (even though its not drizzt ) but the sword definitely needs some serious overworking

What's up with that white outline...
Did you draw the background seperately from the figure?

Also... don't be afraid to let the figure blend into the background, especially the dark parts!

I coloured the darkelve first and then the
background . It was originally a colour
experiment , because I am still not sure
what method of colouring I should use .

The white line is still from the magic wand
tool with which I marked the white background .

I thought it would look better with
background .

cool stuff man,

only a couple things.

That red in the armor kinda makes the elf look not so dark. It looks almost plastic.. maybe a dark silver or black steel look. Only my taste =]

Also, you should try rendering your own lighting effects by hand rather than using the gradient tool or 'lighting effects' in photoshop. The beam effect I think you're looking for works good up top but it really drowns out his legs and looks artificial down at the bottom.

looks good!
