~~REVIEW~~
Hmmm this is notbad i kinda like this one actually i love how you have the eyes so big and large and in your face, they do have a glare or shine too them that seems abit too much but for the mostpart it was still ok. also you should think about giving it some sorta backrounds, maybe some other dogs in the distance or some dug up holes as dogs like to do and such, but anyways this was a pretty good art piece i thought, i hope to see more of your work soon, keep it up.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would suggest a less glare on the eyes and some sort of backrounds would be nice,

[Girl from Rio]

Wow so this one caught my eye this morning. All the tethers in the back are pretty nice would have been nice if You had given them more color. Though. And maybe even have the eyes more open. But I must say this was pretty impressive from the get go. So nice work I was really impressed

And as for improvmens a touch more of color would be nice maybe with the testers behind her just something. That shows differant the testers with more focus

Ok so this was kind of nifty here I love all the lighting and darkness of it. Maybe there should. Be more lighting effects with the moon lighting the water but don't darken the sail boat anymore then it is. Lighting effects can go a long way. Just a thought. But other then that I really liked this. The drawing and character cameout pretty well.

So as mentioned above some more lighting effects would be nice but for what it is this was pretty good already.

ZombieMonkey responds:

Thanks for your advice! :D

To tell you the truth, this was really my first attempt at doing this kind of lighting in a piece. I'm still nowhere near being good at it and I appreciate all the help I can get in improving upon it. :D

[Mr. Goldiglock and Natalia]

Now this was something. Differant. I am really loving the glow you gave the guys body it really stands out and as making that even better I would give it an even more glow. All the colors are sharp and fresh on this piece. The characters are well drawn so awesome job. Maybe a lil more detail in background next time but other then that this was pretty nifty

As for improvement. Points. Some extra glow. And also some extra detail in the bacriunds. Anyways great job here

[Beez]

Now this was awesome. The detail alone. Is good enough for me but you really did push For alot on this and it really shows so nice job there. I'm all about color so would be nice to have some color on this maybe even a touch of color like on the tip of his horns or even the shine on the horns but something. That brings some color.

So this doesn't need much improving but a touch of color here and there would be nice. Anyways nice job all around

As mentioned great work here could throw another cat in the distance

[SO MANY CALYPSOS]

Nifty chracters here

~~REVIEW~~
Calypsos are pretty cool, i like the variation you have on these, they are pretty impressive, i love the amount of detail you put into these, very nice indeed, all the details hair and facial features are neat even cute at sometimes, so awsome job on this, even some nice backround design that seemed to blend in very well, anyways you have a great piece her lots of nice color and good design on these calypso types very nice indeed. keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
So as for improving on this im not sure all the little characters are pretty right on, theres no real visual errors that could come from them or this piece, great job.

Artistic, and colorful

~~REVIEW~~
This one was very cute i like the girl she brings life too this piece and makes it pleasent too see, also love all the amounts of color and such, all the little touches here and there with the stars, and even the goldish backround design seemed to be neat, wish it was more "BLENDED" in though, but really other then that this was pretty good art and colorfull. as for improving not sure, maybe as suggested already, more blending of the backround design with everything else, anyways great job, look forward to more of you great work,

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Everything was pretty good with this, wouldnt mind some blending of the backround design abit more, anyways nice work here

sucho responds:

when you say blending i assume you mean integrating the harsh edges of the grey hair outline/ shoulder cutoff? i know what you mean. thats due to the fact that i tend to think up stuff one layer at a time and i rarely have the entire piece envisioned when i start. i realize thats pretty unprofessional and i've gotten really accustomed (read: lazy) to the sort of scrapbooking/collage design. i just dont think i'm clever enough to work everything together and i'm OCD about edges.

[STARBARIANS]

Impressive

~~REVIEW~~
wow i really love this one, must have took you awhile to get each character in place and such, now i must say this had some of the most vibrant colors and all, it really pushed the colors so very impressed with that, even the lighting colors came alive aswell making the whole world come alive aswell, so awsome job on this one all around, very well detailed, i love the creativity on this with all the differant reatures and such, awsome job regardless, keep up the awsome work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Just make the whole canvas larger with more too see more detail and more of the great use of color.

sucho responds:

rofl, larger canvas.... it was hard enough with the size as it is. but again - there is an excuse for that. this was designed for the NG calendar contest and so i knew if this was ever printed it'd only be around 8.5x11 inches so i knew a TONNE of detail would be lost if i scaled things down and made the characters too tiny. granted thats probably my selfishness to see hogstrong's biceps as big and glorious as possible factoring in too.
