I decided to participate in Wooden Potates contest about creating a pirate themed elite specialization for Guild Wars 2, so here's my idea, the Tideweaver. As far as I see almost everyone just grab a random pic for his or her specialization and added that as a specialization pic, so I thought it would be a good idea to make an own, with a charr of course.

And now, let's do an Academy Awards kind of thing - I tried to impove a lot of things, especially how I use lights and shadows to make them better and perhabs more natural looking, and I probably wouldn't start to work on without the help if FurtherTiger don't gives me a good amount of good advices. Same goes for Danyelx just in the category of using colors. Overall, I have to mention I probably wouldn't finish this pic in a day if I don't find the youtube channel of Aaron Blasie. Seriously, this guy is a genious, go and watch him, especially if you're an artist.

TL;DR, I hope you like it!
