This is Very Nice

I like how you have this one set up the "STORY" board of the sprite is nice, Great addition they have come along way and you bring some nice and shiny detail to this sprite work, I love the detail and the "SHINE-POINTS", but most of all I love the creative side when it comes to "SPRITE-WORK" and you have presented some really nice sprite details here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Make more with this story board element.

Very cool

Now this was very cool I really like this looks familuar from some game but I could be wrong, the color theme here is amazing you have some really nice depth and texture in the backround and main character, Seems all this really needs is some borders and or frames, but its a nice art piece.

Cool

so this was a subtle piece here you added some nice visuals here the canvus seemed small I think you could really improve on this one making a larger canvus for more visual and details to be shown, and two maybe more of a glowing light from the window to give off that mystery of whats going on, anyways nice work here.

This is one of my earliest pieces as I was figuring out my Wacom Intuos 3 tablet (the first tablet I've ever had) and Photoshop. A far cry from MS Paint with a mouse or sketching on paper for me at that age. I agree, it is a bit small, and this is an aspect ratio I have since outgrown. This is demonstrated in my more recent submissions, and you're welcome to leave feedback on them as well.

I was still learning and experimenting with opacities at the time I made this. I'd like to think I'm more skillful about their execution nowadays.

Thanks again for the thorough review!

Sprite work is amazing

You have some "NICE-CREATIVE-IDEAS" when it comes to sprite work, So really nice work here, and I hope you keep making more, I had always wanted to do sprites but never got the chance but what you have created here is pretty "INTENSE-AND-DETAILED" to the max so again nice work here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
overall some nice screens wish these were bigger.

[Doom Faces]

Dark

So here was a cool and dark piece you have here, I like the faces this reminds me something out of a dark and scary movie I could see you adding some red glowing eyes on this piece to give it that even more scarier feel, but anyways really good texture and the faces came off well.

Galneda responds:

I think red glowing eyes can be cliche sometimes.

This is actually from the end screen of the first Doom PC game, and you can compare and contrast to what I paid homage to and what I added to it. For the most part, I was trying to keep it close to the original piece this is based off of...so that's why there ain't LED's lodged into their eyeballs.

Thanks for the thorough review!

Decent

so this was cool, I really like the colors here, some very nice blends and deep textures you have in here, this is like a painting on a wall so maybe in that aspect you could ad some borders or frames along the edges to give it that gallery feel, anyways really good use of color here.

[Was He Looking at Me?]

Nice and Nifty

Now dont get me wrong the color can be amazing but I love the raw black and white, Like you have here and the little details show off well especially in this nifty design of a drawing you have presented here and black and white is always a plus of elements anyways nice work here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would throw a frame on this one.

[A Contrasting View]

A nice B/W Submission

This piece goes to show that you dont really need color or much color to make it look alive, You have gone and done just that it is a beautiful design or drawing here that has lots of depth and detail, and I really love that there is no color because its an original all on its own.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
You do some amazing black and whites no need for changes

[From a Time Long Gone]

A brilliant style

This is a brilliant style of art, not just because its black and white but because you have shown us the raw style points before the color, and you show off the "TALENT-WITHIN-THE-DRAWING" or painting of the black and white sketch here so props to you on such a detailed piece.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Its a beautiful piece and needs no changes.

[My Fair Lady]

A Fantastic B/W

You build an artistic piece and drawing here the black and white stylish piece here is raw talent, Sometimes color doesnt decribe what the "BLACK-AND-WHITE" does and you have presented that here with some "NICE-DRAWING" and sketch of design here I was very impressed with this particular piece.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
This one seems like it could be in full color though maybe a future version.
