Dark, for dark business.

In The Hobbit book, Gandalf blows smoke-rings which change color and hover around his head. I love the image so I had to try my hand at it. I tried a bit of a different process on this one, and I'm not entirely happy with the result, but I thought I'd show you guys anyway.

Criticism is welcome.

And I think you should just let it be the way it is, I actually don't think I would like it much if the rings were colored! :>

give contrast to the constricting shadows***

The image came out spectacular to say the least. Gandalf is perfectly cloaked in an inconspicuous shadowy texture, while the background is given a warm touch of burning light filled with local inn sitters. Since the overall tone of this picture is shadowed, for the smoke, I would color it a more neon-ish colors, from red, blue, green, purple, and yellow in order to give contrast to the colors. I hope that helps and keep up the good work :D
