[YARD]

Hmm interesting

~~REVIEW~~
Hmmm well this was interesting and i really like the idea of "GRAFFITI" but with the one you have here its really hard to see the word "YARD"?? I think its because of all the extra stuff you have going in out and around, the lettering self is notbad ok color not too much shading but its slightly there, the texture is something you may want to work on though, So my suggestion for improving on this would be have the word yard show up or standout more or what you could do is have the main word "YARD" standout in one color, and have all the extra stuff mend into a differant color something lighter so that the word is the main focus point, i like your idea though maybe you will like mine.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Some backround color besides the bland white would be nice, And have the main word "YARD" standout in one color, and have all the extra stuff mend into a differant color

GOSTEONER responds:

i could do backgrounds for future drawings, but backgrounds usually take focus off the main piece. i have to disagree with what ur saying about making the letters stand out more than the extra pieces, the extra pieces are what make it look like graffiti and less like a piece of typography. the real image has darker shading but once scanned the brightness of the scanner kind of distorts that.

Wow very awsome

~~REVIEW~~
Wow i was very impressed with this, infact i added it as my faves, but anyways this really reminds me of one of the older jedi from starwars?? but i guess its not. i really like all the effort in color like with your backrounds and even main charcter, the backrounds were pretty neat but i wouldnt mind seeing more visuals back there even, maybe also give the character like a glow effect around him maybe his eyes or whole head would be a nice little effect and such, maybe even have another character in the distance maybe thats the one character he is looking for, so what im saying with that is give the image abit of a story like something is going on, anyways nice job here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
add another character in the distance, sharpen up the backround cloudy effects, and possibly give the character some aura or glow for the extra effect

Seriously responds:

yeah I plan on drawing all of my friends characters from our DnD campaign, eight, maybe even sketch some of the situations we encountered (some where very funny and all were interesting). Thanks for the good review and the fav. :D

[BS2 - Big Sister]

Awsome

~~REVIEW~~
This is awsome, you added lots of detail and good use of color like the "EYE" and red really reflected very well, i like all the extra detail like the blood stains and the backround war signs, it really gives off a little story of something going on here, now the points i thought were odd was his leg where his leg is lifting up i see no lower half of the leg. is it there or was it cut off in battle? im not familular with the subject matter so im not so sure, and if he is missing that lower leg part how is he/she able to carry that heavy load, also another thing i noticed was your "SIGNATURE" it was too close to the image and rather simple, maybe it should be more in the corner as to not mess up the actual drawing, and maybe you should add a more "FANCY" text and or font, anyways good job here

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
signature was abit plain and too close to the actual drawing, also the "LEG" looked odd??? other then that i thought it was a fantastic art piece

[{BT} Under Water]

Its notbad

~~REVIEW~~
This is notbad, it kinda reminds me of a skyline, some mountains then the ocean?? but anyways if thats what it is its all great, but i think you need to change up on some colors, like the ocean is fine with the color you have, but maybe the mountains could be slightly darker and such, then the sky could be maybe even lighter then the ocean itself, now you could add some sorta prop out there like a small boat or something, maybe a fisherman but it does need a "POINT OF FOCUS" something that gives the viewer a focal point, the image you do have is nice and pretty fantastic but it does need more to it, its more or less just a nice backround which can be used, but i hope you do ad more to this in the near future.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
add a focal point, something other then just the backround you have, and change up the colors abit so its not all blending and such

BenTibbetts responds:

Thanks for your input.

[Falling apart.]

Interesting

~~REVIEW~~
This was neat i like all the blocks and even the uplifting msg you are sending across and such, now this could be much better i think, first off i think that thoe whole canvas should be larger so you can also show much more blocks and maybe even other people with uplifting mesges and such, just an idea but it should be on a much larger canvas, gives you more room to show off much more, now i also think this could be even better with other colored blocks and such, so i do hope them small tips help, but as this art piece is, its pretty good looking and a pretty good idea i thought. anyways nice art piece , keep up the good work

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
a few things would be first make a larger view screen with more blocks and more mesges and such, more mesges and such, maybe even adding some differant colored blocks aswell

~X~

BobtehLog responds:

Thanks for the review, it could of be alot bigger (I do agree) but this result I have no is nothing to what I had first planned so it pretty much just all got recreated on the spot. Thanks for the review :)

[soda spill]

This was interesting but i like

~~REVIEW~~
Now this is a nice and simple image here, but it does need some "DETAIL" it can still have that "SIMPLE" feel but it does need a tad detail like say the cup it could totally have "COKE" along the side of it and all, or what you could do is make up your own logo of some sort, abit of design and some texture to the simple colors used and such would really bring this out, but still keep its simple side and feel to it, now the backround looks to me like this scene takes place at the movies so maybe some posters should be back in those empty slots or something along them lines, well you have a nice drawing here just needs abit of detail here and there nice work though

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
A few details such as some added posters in the backround, maybe a soda logo on the soda and more depth to the colors more texture if you will

~X~

[Neytiri]

Wow pretty good

~~REVIEW~~
Wow this is pretty good, the quality is really top notch, this is kinda crazy because i just saw the movielastnight so this is still fresh on my mind and you have a very good likeness here the backround is notbad either, i do wish you made it much larger though. as for hte backround is seemed out of focus allthough that may have been what you were going for, but i think having some other related stuff from the movie like more forrest backround would also work, maybe even some other navi in the backround or even go as far as having one of those flying creatures to go the extra detail there, well just an idea or two there and i think it would give the image much more life and such. anyways nice work here keep it up

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More backround characters and or creature could help to liven up the image

~X~

JoshSummana responds:

Yeah the background was supposed to be blurred cos in the reference there isnt a lot of forestry either, its a rock face with a bit of growth and then a waterfall on the right. But I wanted Neytiri to stand out as the focal point, so thats why there are no additional Navi or creatures - and plus thats not a review - thats just you saying what you want in the picture..."having one of those flying creatures to go the extra detail there"...its not in the reference/promotional movie poster so I didnt add it.

I just had a look at your work, and not being a dick, but I thought you would be totally amazing if you are willing to easily judge other peoples work...?

[Cold Symbol]

This was interesting

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm well this was notbad, kinda bland in some points but you are right about "BLUE" working well for this, you may want to try a "RED" version or even have the letters Red and the backround blue or even vice versa, i find red has a great feel to it especially if its the deep reds and such, And as for the lettering, it had some nice detail but i think you need to give it much more shine then what you have there, maybe if it was red you might beable to implement that abit more, so regardless its a pretty neat art piece, but with a few fixes as i suggested here it could be even better, so good luck. and hope to see more of your work soon.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Some differant colors either for the letters and backrounds i suggested a deeper red, and amore shine effect aswell

~X~

HeavyTank responds:

Hm, okay, and thanks for leaving a review (although you have thousands :D).

[Supernova 2]

ok the 2nd one

~~REVIEW~~
Now this seems abit better "QUALITY" then the 1st one, but its still missing something ill explain in just abit, im actually thinking that if you were to "MIX" the two styles it might make for an awsome version, so like the first one had a great "WARP" feel and this one doesnt, this one is more of like what would be at the end of the warp so if you mixed the two i think you would have a pretty awsome one, as for this one its pretty good i like the brighter feel and it just has some better overall quality to it that really shines thru, that center piece needs to be somewhat larger, and everything in the outer areas seems too bland you might want to spice that up abit with some stars and specs around, but other then that its notbad at all.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I like versions 1 and 2 and mixing the two would make for a neat version 3, add some stars in the bland spots so it doesnt seem so plain

~X~

[Supernova]

Notbad

~~REVIEW~~
Well i must say you really like this "LIGHTING" style of art, and dont get me wrong so do i, this was another good one, i dont know if its your best of works but its still pretty impressive, this one kinda reminds me of what the star ship enterprise goes thru in warp mode, but anyways, i like all the stars all around, but im thinking the "STARS" themself should be somewhat smaller and have more warp to them as this is like a warp and everything should be in super warp speed, just a thought on my end though, I also think the "CENTER" area should be more brighter to reflect something special in the center, give it that super bright feel like some of your other works have, but with all that said i like what you have here, keep up the decent work, i look forward to reviewing more of your work soon

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As suggested make the stars smaller and with more warp speed feel to them, also make the center more brighter
