Good challenge XD Haven't made something with Photoshop in ages, had loads of fun making this. probably because I was randomly adding/deleting stuff to see what works, yet it's too simple..Maybe I shouldn't have played with the font too much though. lmao

Umm, might I inquire as to what is an abstract? and does the paintbrush tool with the standard circle count as a brush?

From what I've understood in recent research, abstracts can either be a process to make a background portray the idea of abstraction or a brush that portrays the exact same idea. Yes, the standard circle counts as a brush. The paint can is fine.... right? if not I could always just colorize a white background XD The paint can is fine; only brushes/abstracts are not allowed.

Yeah, that's perfectly fine Cleo.
(Ah, all this reminds me of when I've used to make simple sigs without knowledge of brushes/abstracts back in the day... =) )

Never used any brushes for this one, I had a lot of pictures, too many actually, and happily, I was able to render Mao's Cut in in Tales of VS If anyone asks where I got the flames, I have those pictures as background, so I was happy to have those :3
