It's pretty cool. Frostburn's costume color is too plain and dark. Try applying shadows next time. It looks like he has no right arm.
Also Baraka's blood is too pink. Try making it darker and make like a splash in the ground where the broken hand is. Baraka's neck needs more blood.
There's also no characters shadows.
3/5 Dragon Points.


Peace.

Needs some work, but I like the idea, and the story.

Pretty cool

For the helmet, you could just have found a picture of some samurai armor, then cut the helmet off, and maybe changed some colors on it.

I would like to see some cold mist coming from Frost Burn.

More blood splashing, and in the air, also on the swords.

The Victory symbols are too big. At first glance, I thought they were green lamps in the back ground.

Also, I would experiment with a different life bar.

The blue blood between Frost B. and Baraka on the floor. It needs some little splashes around it, so it looks like it splattered there.

Some effects as mentioned above would be cool...also, perhaps his body could be 'falling' more, as in right now every body part is just kinda raised up, perhaps have that section of his body closer to hitting the floor..

I like it tho, nice work

Not bad, not bad at all.
Few things:

- Imo, those lifebars are hideous tongue. They seem too "Hi-Tech" for MK, particularly MK2. I always prefer the MK lifebars over most others, and this is one of those times.
- As Bleed said, the win marks are huge, I too thought they were part of the background.
- Frost-Burn could be a little lighter, he's a bit hard to see.
- No shadows.
- There is a good amount of blood here, but just a little more from the head would be a good addition. Remember, just a little more though.
- Background is a little small. The size should be 395x254.

Good things:

+ A good edit.
+ The blood work is outstanding, just needs a bit round the head as above grin.
+ I personally think the swords are nicely done, they look pretty evil.
+ Good thought of making Frost-Burn's skin a little "blue". Could have been done a bit better on the arm perhaps, but the face/head looks great smile.

Good fake though.

Rating:
I won't downgrade you on the style of your lifebars, because they do what they are supposed to I guess, but they are a bit large.

Start with a 10 grin
- Shadows -1
- Lifebars + Background -1
(Size, not the style)
- Bit more blood -0.5

I have no idea whether this is an effective system or not, but either way, I'm giving you a 7.5/10 tongue.

Nice job smile.

I now pronounce tims post's the smily capitals of the world grin This is ok, besides everyhting noted above, i have a few things to add...starting off Baraka is somewhat bigger than FrostBurn, anotherthing i see is he doesn't really seem to be swiping the swords, he doesnt show any horizontal movement. but none the less i like it...
3/5
(boosted the original rating because the swords are brothers and the names crack me up grin

Thanks for all the comments and helpful hints.

this is the og png file and it is long(size width) but dont mind that.

actually no, i did the helmet by hand and a few useful tools (mspaint to be exact, as well as ArcSoft photodraw 2000), but i made the helmet by hand and as for the blue blood,

no it is not blood, it is the right leg guard of Frostburn that was cut off by baraka in their fight, just like the slices on the other leg guard.

i tried to do clothing damage as well as bodily harm. but big thanks to everybodys help and support

P.S. if thats the right leg guard, then how come there's still a right-leg guard on Frostburn?

What I ment by the helmet was that is looks like it was colored by hand, and to make it look real, you could just cut one out of a real picture.


Now I see what the blue thing was, I gues you would have to see is animated to realy know what it is.

Or maybe make it look more like cloth. Put some wrinkles in it or something.

I see now, the Right leg guard was on his thigh.
