*heaps more praise*
very much with the wow, seriously nice.
Though I have nowhere near the skill to do better, I hope I can point out two things that will make such wonderful things just that little bit better.
1) assuming the same generic light source (upper right) the shadows on the pants don't match. Jeff's pants are dark at the half way point, and Liz's are no where near as dark, or from the same degree.
2) on a similar point, dealing with different light sources (for glowing wands and blades). I'm not sure what tools you are using, but if you have something that does layers (what doesn't), alpha channels, and color overlays it's much easier. You can paint where the light would fall, tweak the saturation, toss a roughly circular gradient filter in the alpha channel, and your done. Or close enough that it makes life much easier.
