[Piconjo's sword]

Nice work

~~REVIEW~~
Ok so another 3d render, which is not bad, i like what you did with it, like with textures and really making it shine, i think you could have still gave it abit more of a shine, more brightness on the shine part, like if it was out in the sun or something and the sun is directly over it especially being out on the sand and all, I thing the handle should be more thicker, something that holds all that blade should have more of a grip and such, and there was a little green "GEM" at the bottom, i thought this could be more brighter maybe with more of a glow and such, maybe even bigger in someway, As for the sand as the backround i thought that was a nice little backround maybe it should be more lighter like in some sorta sandy dunes type of thing, well these are a few ideas that could really help, maybe or maybe not but something to think about if every wanting to improve onto these, nice little sword or knife here i thought it was very impressive even as is, and i look forward to seeing more of your designs and artwork in the near future, so good luck on anything new.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
suggested a number of ideas and improvments above, such as brigter gem, bigger handle, brighter shine and sandier sand.

in fact this is not a little sword, this is a huge masive sword. haven't you ever played NewGrounds Rumbles? try to unlock Piconjo's charapter and you'll know what I'm talking about.

[The Masks we wear]

The mask

~~REVIEW~~
Ok so here is something differant, in this one you give off a good msge, anout hiding behind a mask because we need to be a certain way for the public eye, so for the meanning i really got and thought it was pretty neat how you put this through art, as for the "ART" it was very good, nice group of shades, very fresh looking not dark and detailed but just something more fresh looking and that works out, also liked the back writings aswell allthough you cant see them all, it is still well presented to flow woth everything here, so nice job here, Now as for improving on something like that, not sure as you have once again covered all your bases, but if i was going to suggest anything at all, i would have a "TEAR" on the guy behind the mask as to show abit of emotion, that could really show off the meaning abit more and what you are trying to get across, and just an idea aswell, As for your "SIGNATURE" you could have it look abit more "FANCY" as it looks too squished together, anyways hope that helps and once again great piece.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I mentiond an idea of a tear on the guy as to show more emotion, and also making the signature look more fancy and more spread out as to read abiit better

Manuel-Dangelo responds:

Thanks.
And by the way. I don't cry any more. I think I'm out of tears since I was 10 years old.

[Shield (Orange)]

Entertaining

~~REVIEW~~
Ok wow this was really impressive and has to be your best work, it certainly is one of my faves of the day, i really like how you changed a dull color "ORANGE" and made it look really good, probably the black over the orange just works so well, as for the design of the shield i thought it was welldone with some good detail, and shows lots of effort, I like the shades within the shield, and you just thought this one out very well, so i was impressed with that portion of this great art piece, Now the backround i thought you could have done much better, the white just seems too bland, you could have had a "SHADED" grey and it might also bring the picture out more without taking any focus away from the main piece here, but anyways a great piece of art here, good colors and a good design, So all and all, another great piece i enjoyed.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Make the white backround, more greish, and that might be it its pretty good though.

Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks for the review, glad ya liked it!

[Only Human]

An interesting image here

~~REVIEW~~
Now with this one seems like you went all out, you have lots of color and even borders and frames, thats something i try and tell others about, and here you have really presented that, I like it how you didnt kill it with color either, but you really had some in there and some not colored, so that was pretty neat, i like the style with this as the linework was pretty impressive and again it all came together so really nice job once again, Now this had a sorta meaning to it and thats what i also liked about it, with the bottle and such, i think you should have had the bottle colored with some portion of color for the soda amount or whatever it was, it was notbad at all, and i had another pleasure of reviewing this, another pleasent piece, if anything can be improved i would add a touch of backround color but not too much, anyways nice job.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Just a tint of shade in the backrounds, and some more tint color in the bottle were the liquid cuts off.

Cyberdevil responds:

Thanks for the long review X!

[Merry Christmas]

Pleasent

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm now this was interesting, it seems to work for the holidays and the theme you were going for, i like all the design and bright colors i thought, seemed very pleasent,, and just right, it was abit artistic and had all these colors just really made for an awsome piece, i like the light beams coming down, and what i really liked about this was the, Differant colors and how they all flowed into eachother giving the next, a much new feel then the last, really great stuff all around i thought, Would have been nice if you added some town and people down there somehow would make it even more pleasent, so all and all, a good piece here nice and pleasent colors that all blended well together, and overall i give this an A+ So nice job indeed, i Really liked it.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would ad some people a town and show them in there jolly way.

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

Yeah, people would be a good addition, thanks for the review!

[Suffer No Guilt]

Fantastic design and detail

~~REVIEW~~
and wow this was as awsome as they can get i suppose, so much "DETAIL" from the eyes to the horns and lots of fine detail here and there it all just really flowed as one but there are somany pieces, i even noticed that the horns were almost transformed into like moons, now with this one on the color seems if like a fresher color tone was used then in the other ones, but again and you will probably hear this alot from me but ad another bit of color to have more focus on it, but you are on the right track with the amount of detail and effort you put on, anyways verywell done here. So improvments would be to ad some color maybe some bright reds and or blues as explained for some focus since there is so much all around and such. anyways once again nice job.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Well again i suggested some color just a tad here and there.

~X~

Jakubias responds:

Roger that! Thanks for pulling the effort to actually write something with sense, I appreciate it!

[Excrement]

Awsome

~~REVIEW~~
Ok so here is another great piece and you are going on my faves list, but anyways with all your work including this one you give meaning to these pieces you do like this one with the drawings and such, very welldone, the sketching of all this, is very well done and seems to all fit well together, you also really make it all kinda funny in a way that you dont see, so props to you for making this an awsome piece, Now to improve onto this i thik it could have a more "BORDER" like presence, so it seems like a poster type of thing, so maybe ad frames/borders onto it, the text shows it off as something like that, Now again i say ad abit of color like maybe the pile in his hand could be slowly turning into gold or something, just to give the idea, but anyways it was a nice piece as always and glad to see your work on here, keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I suggested possibly some borders and frames, but its just an idea, and you already have something really good.

~X~

Jakubias responds:

Thanks, that border thing might actually work.

[The Tongue]

Brilliant piece

~~REVIEW~~
Really awsome artwork here, i really noticed, it right off the bat, but anyways you are a unique, artist and your drawings, the style is really neat, it has some good full view of lots of detail, and i like the one tone it is, but i would like it to have is some color not alot, just a little bit like little points here and there, like say for this piece you could have the picture as is except the backround star could be in color like a red or even yellow to really bringout things, but fro the mostpart its some pretty interesting work that i really enjoyed, and i do plan to checkout some of your other works, this one with the frogs was very welldone and lots of detail, and does show off some story you really presented it well, and im glad i had the chance to review this so nice job indeed, The color tone on this was very neat, so keep up the good work.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Maybe a touch of two-tone-color, would be nice but its pretty good.

~X~

Jakubias responds:

Thanks! Maybe someday I'll do little experiment with those colors.

[Japanese Wolf]

Needs brighter colors

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm now this one was the most oddest ones of the bunch, while it does remind me of a wolf and is the most clearest of all the other designs, its also seems to have abit lesser quality to it, it might be because the texture is not showing so well or theres less color to this, it might even be that the color is that of a darker one, something to think about, as the Brighter colors "RED" "BLUE" "GREENS" tend to comeout much better, the whole moon above is also kinda odd, and the "LETTERING" seems too think over the other designs, but anyways its not my faveourite by any means but i still like it, and as i have said in the others it has a pattern likeness and needs that extra push to give it its own "UNIQENESS" for this one i think it needs a brighter color, I would suggest using more then one color, like you could have the Wolf one color and the "MOON" another brighter color, it might show off better, and then as said before backrounds would be nice and give it that uniqueness i been talking about, so these are all things to think about when creating these and or new designs.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As stated, something with more of a personal touch on each one so they are not such the same, in this one some new colors for the wolf even a second color for the moon would sufice, the texture was just not showing up in this one.

MonoFlauta responds:

yes, the problem is the photo because i dont have scanner yet u.u but thanks for the review!

[Japanese Tiger]

another decent pattern

~~REVIEW~~
and now for the Japanese Tiger, The "BLUE" really looks good here, i wouldnt touch it much if you did bring it out into other art programs to spice it up, the "TEXTURE" really shows up on this one, now i must say this tiger is my favourite of all your work, mainly because the texture does show up more then the red dragon, but i do feel like the red dragon that it could use some effects such as the red dragon again some glowing effects maybe it be the "EYES" or maybe in this case it could be the "TEETH" and eyes, but you get the idea, and i do believe it would improve on thse works, another reason i do say this is because all these Japanese styles all seem the same and only differant is the "SHAPE" so it tends to be repetitive and not much changes except the shape, so you have to give something extra to each one so it doesnt seem the same everytime, an idea like i said on the dragon would be to ad some backrounds, maybe you ad a backround for each one that represent the animal more, and in that sense it would not seem the same everytime you make a new one, because the backround would be differant aswell. anyways good luck on your next entry i did like this one most of all the ones you have.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Backrounds and other effects could be used so these are not all the same style, each one needs more uniqueness then the other.

MonoFlauta responds:

oks thanks for the review :D (I made the same mistakes in each draw lol)
