[mango]

I'm loving the background, and the cream puff backpack! Spoons also make the best weapons.

Something does feel a bit off with the perspective on the character here in relation to the backdrop. It might just be the difference in the line style is just making mango pop out too much for me.

Keep up the good work ;)

ThisIsNotArchie responds:

it's alright, i do admit i'm kinda struggling with backgrounds and making it blend in with the character. thank you so much for commenting, i really appreciate it :D

['Game Jam Attacked!']

I'm really sorry, but it took me at least 20 seconds to figure out what the Olympic torch wizard stood for!
I like how everyone, including the boss, seems to be enjoying this.

Butzbo responds:

it was intended as more of a brush (or something between a brush/staff), but since it's a single moving shape it does give the illusion of a torch, hahah!
Thanks for dropping by! :)

[1,000,000 Art Portal Views!!]

Whoa! That's a lot of views!
Also, does his left boot have a bandaid on it?
If you're wondering why you're missing half a star, I like the guy - but the background could fit him a bit better.

deathink responds:

Thanks a lot man, Yeah, there is a couple band aids on him.

[Bipolarity]

Haha, definitely not my kind of Bipolarity!
As always the artstyle pulls it together well, and despite simplicity it feels as full as it could be :)

Soupcat responds:

Thanks man! That's really nice!

[Shieldmaiden comic 001]

Its nice to finally see them here! The funny thing about grey scale is that I'll never truly know if thats blood on that stool.

PiratePudding responds:

Thanks alot, glad you like the comic! :)

I plan to keep at it while I work on the film, it's far from over. ;)

[Kira]

Its a great start, though it feels just a bit flat XD
Will we get to see more of these? I'm looking forward to it if we do :)

Back-From-Purgatory responds:

Yeah, I was struggling with trying to give it a little more life. This is the first time I have ever colored anything... or taken anything beyond the sketch phase really. So coloring/shading is something I'm really gonna have to work on.

And yeah, there will be more of this.

[wazup bro]

Looks like samurai jack

FarturAst responds:

Thanks, i am a big fan of Samurai Jack :)

[The giver of life]

Well, its still counts as an entry right? You showing bare minimum and with how the shading and coloring is off as well as how you did the background makes it look like it was just a spare time play sketch. I also feel you should be showing us more. For all I know this could be a green tree stump, or some kind of fruit. That really all I have to say about this. Not much to rate apon.

M-Maher responds:

yeah. it was apart of a larger drawing but at that point it was 5AM and i didn't feel like refining the rest so i cropped the unfinished crap and half-assed it.

what can I say: I'm lazy

[Not anymore]

I'm likeing it! The coloring is smooth and flows with with both her and the background, the shading gives her the proper demensions and shows a clear source of light. Her body is perfectly perportioned for her size.
There however are a few things I have to point out that stands out as wrong ot me.
1-though mostly smoothe the lighting and shading becomes a bit angular/blocky where the lighting is brighter which makes it seem a bit rushes (right leg)
2-her left knee is a bit too angular, acception for her left shoulder due to how skinny she is...
3-her head/kneck seems to be bent a but out of place, a bit too far foward/too the right.

HappyEndings responds:

1. I was trying to show that the light being diffracted. I might have implemented it wrong. I'll look into it.

2. Yeah, someone pointed that out to me earlier. I'll remember to fix it in the future.

3. Gotcha.

Thank you for the critique, yo. :)

[Roofies]

Personally, I kinda like this style. But there are quite a few things wrong here in my opinion...
1-Though most of her body has near perfect perportions her arms look a tad bit noodly and her right arm looks bent a bit too low. The one other problem in relation (probably just me) but how her head was done makes it look a bit too circular, the hair could flow a bit smoother in and outward to fix this problem, though it could just be her hairstyle :).
2-I'm relation to the frist problem her hands and arms get a bit too thin compared to the rest of her body, the tie on her arms could use a bit more definition looks more like an armband.
3-From how shes positioned on her legs id have to say we should be seeing or are seeing mainly her right side which just throws the whole picture off for me, and heres why. Some features on her left side seem to be favored and make to look a bit bigger even though they are farther away, as well as that butfrom her bottom legs (knee and up) she seems to be turning her back more in our direction (her knees and bottom legs need to be tilter more knees go in to the left and legs come out ot the right)
4-Lat but not least the colouring and shading....as I said before I personally like this kind of style but for what you've done here things look a bit off. the colors give a missconception of light direction along with the shadowing on her body which makes it seem like theres a bright light in the bottom right which would lead to less shading on her right side and....below her? I'm assuming thats her shadow stretching along the floor.

Fearneh responds:

Thank you for the feed back i wasnt too happy with this myself tbh i've not drawn for a while so im a little rusty
im sure with some more work
i'll get everything right if i try something like this again
again thank you and i shall bare all this in mind with my next piece.
