    That's a lot of pen-tool

    Not sure though whether that much effort was worth it visually, though. A lightning stock on a vanishing point plane would create about the same effect (in much more cheapskate way, of course).

    An IMO you've overdone with floor lightning in the middle (next to the guy) and along the right side of the street. A bit more visible cobble-stones would add a bit more interesting detail.

    And I like the color of the V3, it quite realistically depicts how surroundings look like when lightning is the only light source. But talking about light sources: you should remove the shadow from the man, he has two stong lightnings to left and right and none strong behind his back.

    Nice to see some new styles from you again.

    As you can see there is lots of lightning in the front. As distance increases, more lightning is packed into small vision space and so looks more crowded.So the farther it is, more the lightning.

    Yeah, that was the original color choice but i added more later.

    If you go by logic of having 5 lightning bolts and whole grid of lightning, the whole tag should be white, so i let this shadow slip in.

    i dont think its plain, i do like the monotone effect, but i think there should be a little more color to it. and i think some of it is too sharp, u should blur some of it, and sharpen around the person to bring out a better focal.

    The details are high in number and short in size. Sharpening will lead to pixelation and blurring destroys depth in such tags ;p

    if your saying that about mine, then, shit your pretty much right cuz i failed at that, but back to yours, maybe its better as an lp, because your right there is much detail, and obviously very little room.

    Lots of areas are too sharp. Lower the opacity just a bit, 5-10%, instead of blurring. As mentioned before, this is a pentool overkill. Sometimes one more stroke is just too much.
