[Dino-Dragon]

Dragon or dino who knows

~~REVIEW~~
Now this one does look like a dragon and a lizzard though, so its a hard one to tell, i love the color-tone on this one though, since you did have that color you should have set up a backround back setting something with more {COLOR} to it and such, but for the mostpart this was pretty good, i love color and it would have been nice to see more of it in there, anyways great stuff once again.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
So you already know my idea of the comments from the other art pieces, but for this art piece you should add some backrounds and abit more color in there aswell.

[RROOOOAAAAAAAARR!!]

Nice

~~REVIEW~~
And now we come to this version of the Friday flood, notbad sofar this may be my fave of them all, for the ver 8 anyways, the colors looked abit on the {DIM} side but that was ok i thought, lots of good shades and coloring, more like dragons here i thought, but still a good piece, i look forward to seeing more of these theme types from you all, anyways keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Since this is like a theme {FLOOD THE PORTAL} or {FRIDAY FLOOD} Why not have a description in the authers comments about that, kind of gives the viewers who dont know about it an idea and such.

[Friday Flood! 8]

Nice detail

~~REVIEW~~
So this one was another portal flood, or friday flood i mean, still confused about it all, but you have a nice piece here in this one, has some 3-d feel to it and all and is differant with some nice ideas and such, the colors could be brighter,now im thinking this is a dino? somehow it must be since thats the theme and all, but anyways it was pretty good i thought, anyways nice job.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Would be nice to add some brighter coplors on the lighter areas, As i have suggested to the others, Since this is like a theme {FLOOD THE PORTAL} or {FRIDAY FLOOD} Why not have a description in the authers comments about that, kind of gives the viewers who dont know about it an idea and such.

TurkeyOnAStick responds:

Thanks, but the colours are meant to be coppery/bronzish, and ever-so-slightly miserable to reflect the mood of the head.

Also I feel a bit odd on you reviewing my lack of author comments, since it's not part of my submission. It's quite fun to cause a bit of confusion in the art portal once a month, but the intention is to cover the page with thumbnails (which didn't happen this month!)

[Raptor rider]

Simple and cute

~~REVIEW~~
ok so here is another friday flood, thing, notbad this one was pretty good i thought, i like the idea of {DINO's} this one seemed to lack some backround work wich would have been a fantastic finish to it the dino and rider were abit light so maybe some sorta darker backround might have worked somehow, or even a rainbow of colors would have been nice, now these themed ones are nice im guessing an idea from the art forums and such, its not a bad idea the same {THUMB} kinda thru me off but in anycase it was decent work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
some backround work might also be another good idea for this particular piece, So i suggested to the others >> Since this is like a theme {FLOOD THE PORTAL} Why not have a description in the authers comments about that, kind of gives the viewers who dont know about it an idea and such.

[Flood the Portal 8 - Dinosaurs]

Nice use of color

~~REVIEW~~
Ok so im not too sure what {FLOOD THE PORTAL} is but guess its make one theme by a number of users? as a tip to improve on that idea i suhhest you all put it in the comments, might even draw more attention to the other pieces, as for this one, its very colorfull and a good dino in the middle seems rushed and somewhat simple like, its not bad its kinda neat actually, i would love to see abit more {TEXTURE} in the dino but from what it is , its pretty good if you ask me, so to better improve on this maybe some more texture on the dino skin, and an update on the authers comments. anyways good stuff as always.

Spags responds:

Flood the portal is an activity that the art forum does once a month where everyone uses the same thumbnail in their piece so that the portal all has the same thumb if enough people participate.

I realize that this dinosaur is rushed, I had to make him in like 40 minutes, so you're pretty spot on there. I agree that a texture would have been nice, or at least some more detail.

Thanks so much for the constructive feedback!

[Don't Run, We Are Your Friends]

Nice work

~~REVIEW~~
ok so nice job on this the {GREEN} is looking awsome perfect color on this guy, and i like the little red color details aswell, the {BRAIN} was great but im thinking, you should have had some red in the darker green shaded areas maybe it would look better that way, other then that the colors cameout very well, the {EYES} are perfect they are really just popping out at you wich i really liked so nice job there, This almost seems like the type of work you could put up on a dress-up game in flash so theres something there, so anyways tips for making this piece better, add a differant color in the brains darker shading. other then that its pretty good.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
add a differant color in the brains darker shading.

[King Tiger]

Impressive colors and design

~~REVIEW~~
Really like this and the color you got going i personally love anything with the use of {PURPLE} so this seemed to comeout very well, and with black it seemed to workout ok i thought, the lil touches of yellow or gold was working as extra so really nice touch with the colors here, some little {EFFECTS} like glowing of the eyes could have been used, i think in this situation it would have worked great if you ask me, something to try out for another time, but besides that tip it was a good piece, also another tip for making it better might be to add some backround work but not really needed , just a tip for making it even better then it already is.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I suggested a few tips for making things better, with some glow and even some backround detail, other then that it was a good piece

[Counting Shiplights]

Love the detail and theme

~~REVIEW~~
Very nice work on this and i am loving the {BLUE-THEME} and not overkilling either but you have some very nice detail in this like with the design within the hat, im thinking that design should be lighted grey or something, but anyways you have a good drawing has a good persona about her, so i can see ehy you like her, the little details in this is what works out the most, so verywelldone on those parts, if i was to suggest anything to make it better i would say some backround work, but i understand its about the character, so anyways great stuff i enjoyed this great character of yours and look forward to seeing some more.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
i wrote about some backround work but understanding its just about the character work.
