Nice

The ending was the best, these jokes are so "SIMPLE" but are so funny aswell, So I know these are the early ones here but they are still pretty impressive ones wonder if you will ever go back and redo some of these old ones with some color themes or something, that might be an idea to embark on, just an idea to think about though. anywyas really nice stuff here.

Cool original

Funny "JOKE" in this one as always the "SCARECROW" was a good idea, This was a cool original piece of the comic and its classic form I do love this classic form of the series while not the best of details and colored but still showed off some good humor and a nice adventure, so it would be nice if you redid these in color though, anyways nice job.

Nice character

So this one was pretty cool I like the the "ECLAIR" name and phraise it was a "NIFTY" idea you had with that the character design and line work was nice and I like the little details like the cup and such but maybe some extra added backround detail like some chocolate splatter on the back wall but overall this was pretty good.

Cartoony

Yes indeed this is cartoony and a nice colorful view shot the characters are fun and theres lots going on it really just jumps out at you with a nice feel about it if anything needs to be changed I might say ad a larger canvus and show even more detail on it, other then that this was pretty cool.

Impressive

I think this one here is "IMPRESSIVE" based on the original idea and concept you've "EXECUTED". I don't often see many men on-top of the cactus holding an umbrella from the sun, but the way you have the sun rays bouncing off the umbrella to showcase him hiding from the heat was a nice original idea I haven't really seen. The way he is sitting on the cactus is nice but makes me wonder if his ass is suffering hahaha, but it does work out well in terms of the concept you are doing here. I do think he is a bit too big for the proportion and size of the cactus, like he should be a bit smaller, unless this is like some kind of mega-cactus. I can see that working on this way in terms of proportions in "SIZE-AND-DEPTH". The sun rays seem to end suddenly in the art, so maybe extended them next time for a more consistent looking piece. I like his clothing colors and the "COLOR-OF-THE-UMBRELLA-TOO", as it seems to be like BEST BUY colors of an employee stranded hoping to be free of life hehe. I think that overall it is a nice little piece, almost like a comic from saturday morning newspaper comics, those one panel ones, maybe next time add some joke line or text above him with a line or witty saying.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Add an adjustment to the size of the character or the size of the cactus as it seems off, the sun rays should be longer as those never generally end, and maybe some text lines with the man saying something comical.

Cyberdevil responds:

Yes indeed, it's difficult to successfully sit on a cacti without certain self-sacrifice! XD All good points, and you skimmed the surface of that long story with the BEST BUY color recognition too! Though I wasn't going for that particular brand. Thanks for the review!

Very good

You "EXECUTED" the joke very well in this one, that "WHITTY" humor is always great, These are still pretty good even if they dont have a lot of detail and color you really pushed the envelope and made a funny outcome and for me thats more important then any detail and color, so anyways nice work here and hope you keep making these awsome art and comic pieces.

Okay

Notbad this one was okay and not too bad but it gets lost on me a bit. I see you have "MENTIONED" this is a critter but when I look at the 3 versions you have going on here, I see one "CRITTER" and two, what looks like swords or an axe, and maybe you did this so it can transform, but the other two seem very stiff and more like weapons then a critter. I would suggest that next you do this with the variations of the critter, to keep the same body movement going that you had in the first critter to make it more consistent and shows that the critter is full of life. When you leave the other two so straight and perfectly balanced out, that gives the sense that it is stiff and has no life but just a means of object without a life. I would just keep the same kind of tail movements and head movements from the first one really. I think overall it is a nice design. The decals like effects you have in the middle is nice, almost like a "TATTOO", and the color of the blue is very nice and subtle with the other tones and darkness you have picked out. The way each one has different designs and details was really great to see and shows your range. I would say this is a very good piece but next time, other than the stiffness, I would work on a background, maybe just something of swirls or shapes, because the plain black background isn't too eye appealing and I've seen you do much more with these types of "SUBMISSIONS" so I would love for you to add up a background next time.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Add up a background and add more movement to the other more stiff critters

Cyberdevil responds:

Hmm that's true. Not as much depth in the other two there. They were all alternations on a requested logo meant to look like an alien life-form, but I can see that impression might not come across as well there. I did like the center one best according to how it looked, but agree, not very life-like. Good points! Regarding background though: think of a logo mock-up as a sprite sheet, where adding something behind them would make them difficult to cut out. Other than a plain background color not present in the logo (like green or pink) transparent is usually the best way. Not the greatest for viewing them on-page though hmm...

[Lush]

This was cute

So this was kind of cute I like all the different elements in this one, the moon the baloons and the character, I do think you should ad some sort of "SHINE" on the baloons though that would be a cool idea and mayne some glare from the moon light, these are all just some ideas.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
A few ideas suggested moonlight, shine on the baloons etc.

A fantastic entry once again

Was it "COCAIN" as it may "SUGGEST" anyways nice comic, A fantastic piece here and this one is just a part of the puzzle to a bigger part of the story well thats how I see it anyways but anyways I love color so its also refreshing seeing little color like this one, it gives a sense of progress from past to present, but anyways nice work here.

Nice color

So there was some nice use of color in this one I love the star and you can see the little details and nifty 80s themed items I think this could use a color frame kind of like what you did with the back end star of colors but as a frame or border to reflect much more color Wich is something the eighties really pushed aswell but overall you have a real nice art piece here make more soon
