Haha so this one was really good there so much to see and you added lots of personality especially with all the differant cats and such and some humor aswell like the dog that has a cat face sign lol that gave me a chuckle, I think it could be improved maybe with some sorta backround or even solid base color but something would be nice back there, might even be cool if you added some more cats in the distance maybe even some more dogs or something but again does need something more, but anyways this was pretty fantastic, you should make more like this, for now keep up the good work.

Well as stated above > some sorta backround or even solid base color but something would be nice back there, might even be cool if you added some more cats in the distance maybe even some more dogs or something, anyways good luck.

Zolah responds:

Thank you for your reply!

Yeah the dog was a 'spy' reference, Thougth it would be funny :) I seldom get a chance to do something like this. I shall defenetivly go to more Cons in the future xD my geekbar gets raised to the maximum and bad jokes just falls from the sky!

I made it like this so i could print it on t-shirts and such later on, so think of it as a 'invisible area' xD But sure, I will think about what youve said for my next picture, I could just change so I have two different ones if I want to use it as a print. One more detailed and one with less wich would be better suited as a print :) I also noticed that the colouring was way off, on the laptop they werent this colour and I think i will from now on only paint on my stationairy :/ wasnt meant that some of them would get an odd colour tint :/

Thanks once again!

Well this was pretty cute, it was very simple i like the simple-ness of it, it would be nice tp see more in the backround but in a way it was also ok with what you had alsoso nice job there, maybe adding more texture in the skin tone and even the x you had in the backround, but some more color blending would be nice, The quote text at top of his head was pretty funny and amusing, as for the whole creation and design, so i stated some improvment ideas, hope it helps, good luck on anything else you have planned aswell, i look forward to seeing more from you, anyways for now keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
more texture with in the skin tone and such, also could use something more in the backround as that was abit bland,

Leigh responds:

Yeah sure thanks.

~~REVIEW~~
OK so this was abit differant from alot of stuff, so my take on it was i really liked it and like all the use of color, you really have it splash out in a very good way here so that was possitve, Thispiece also has some meaning with the words and the whole feeling it gives off of being crished by someone maybe, not sure but it does tell a lil story and that just makes it even better, now to make things better maybe you could darken up the heart more redish and more dripping below, but thats just me, for the most part of this this was pretty good, anyways keep up the awsome work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More redish color could be used, and more dripping below.

Flashmovieboy responds:

Thanks a lot for such a detailed and constructive review ! I appreciate this :)

Before having a girlfriend, I thought that loneliness is the worst pain ever to exist in the world. But after a relationship with her, I learned that while loneliness is a pain comparable with being hit by a wooden plank. It hurts, but doesn't leave a scar. The pain of a break-up, however, is like getting spear of steel impaled through your heart. Not only does it hurt, but for a while, makes me unable to love anybody the way I loved my ex.
Thanks for the advice, although I wanted to avoid using too much red, I'll keep this on mind.

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

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.

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.

Love it

~~REVIEW~~
Wow i saw this on the art portal and said wow i love this so i added it as one of my faves, the hair color and linework on the hair is so very impressive the girl is great looking, is it after a real person? if so great job, the backround was notbad, allthough seems like the backround could use more depth, but i understand you dont want to take away from the main drawing of the girl, but the "BLUE" is working for this piece very well, so nice job there, anyways great job as for suggestion just a tiney bit more detail in the backround.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As mentioned, some more depth in the backround, but for the mostpart this was pretty good.

Ukki responds:

Thank you very much :-)

This is my fave from you out of all your designs, love the color, very good blends on these colors, The purple is pretty bright and really shines through here it seems and i like the lights and dark shadings so again good with the lighting effects especially with the center focus area, some deep colors turnedout great, so awsome job on all these i was impressd, hope to see more of these in the future, anyways nice job indeed, keep up thegood work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
So this was all pretty good nice color, nice design and great shading or in other words some nice lighting effects, so if anything will be improved i suggest larger view screen, maybe even more random colors but even with what you have it is pretty good.
