Misc. Avatar Contest ~ The Four Elements

Wow! That's an amazing picture, JiNX! Where's it from?

Something a little calmer from me:

We used to have about five days to create an avatar and one week-day and one week-end-day to do the voting -this is too little time for me to come up with something and make an avatar out of it I think (I'll still be trying though -even if this round (great theme :bolian: ) seems to have become a TV/Media/SciFi/Fantasy-round ;) )
 
Since five elements contains four elements, I guess that's okay ;)

Cool, then I have to work with...

* Wood (Chinese: 木, pinyin: mù)
* Fire (Chinese: 火, pinyin: huǒ)
* Earth (Chinese: 土, pinyin: tǔ)
* Metal (Chinese: 金, pinyin: jīn)
* Water (Chinese: 水, pinyin: shuǐ)

So far I've made this:

But I think it needs a lot more work.

Lot more work or not, that gets my vote. :bolian:
 
Thanks a lot, but I think wood looks like foliage, water looks like gift-wrapping, earth looks like rust and metal looks like a tribble in a warp-core breach.. I'll see what I can do to it -should have time enough to change those things!

ETA: wouldn't look good enough on a LCD-LED monitor, RJ... and that's the best I can do right now...
 
^Your four segments actually look quite a bit like depictions of the four elements you were trying to depict, mine look like someone filled the segments in with a cheap crayon :(
 
well it's hard to get an avatar that depicts four, let alone, five different concepts at once, especially non-gifs. My avatar has a lot of imperfections that I couldn't fix, but hey it's all in fun. Yours has more symbolic meaning as well.

Thanks for the kind words just the same.
