: "Circles" is really cool, but did you photoshop the chief there, or
: is it just an angle, because the lighting looks like it was pasted (but,
: sometimes halo does that with shadows, 'specially in forge)

All I did was mess with the contrast and colors, and I slightly motion-blurred everything behind the Chief. In this smaller, crappier version, that motion blur doesn't come off as well, I think, and makes the figure and the negative space too contrasted, and maybe that's where you get the feeling he doesn't belong. It might also be the lighting/ shadows as you stated. Here's the original screenshot:

: "Post-Modern Slay" is another favorite cool one, but again it looks
: photoshoped, which I am going to guess it is. It seems like it would be
: really hard to find that much clear space on Valhalla, with the walls and
: the ark in the backround.

Just darkened and changed the contrast for this one. I think I just found a good angle, and cropped off the sides to give it that empty / airy feeling which is what I was going for. Again, the original shot:

If you'd like the larger and better versions of any of these, I'd be happy to email them to you.

It's coming very soon... be on the lookout!
