Notbad

So this was notbad at all, I think some "ADDED-SHINE" on the hair would be nice, This one Radiates of style and color, I like these types for the effort and stale you put fourth probably not my type of art piece but again you put fourth the effort and they do grow on me. you even gave it some beautiful Expression But my Overview is not Tremendous but I will say, Its art pieces like this that truly amaze me because they bring on so much detail and ad to the portal as its own creative style of work, there just so much quality here and I really have come to enjoy that.

Very nice work here

A great character you have "CREATED" here with this one, I found it to be pretty "AMAZING" and congrats on the frontpage, but anyways the lighting behind the characters could have more of a domminant brightness to it, anyways you do some good work here very nice here.

[HighwayCity]

Wow so beautiful

I love myself some SciFi "CITY" senes just like you have presented here, I would suggest adding some cars with lights driving like its an active city or something along them lines, You have the Ambition for unique stuff like, This was neat and strange and very impressive, it has a certain artistic feel to the art style and it was just strange but that was a good thing, I really liked it, And I really like the Rapid Presentation But Finally I will come to an end here with this review in a bit, Well I do hope to see more work of yours, But with all that said, one thing I will say is that this was a fun piece of artwork, and a pleasure to review.

Kamikaye responds:

THanks !
I admit, I forgot about cars and stuff while doing the color overpass. I experimented with some holo ads etc. but deleted them again.

Simple and good

Oh good I am glad you are trying something else out here, I do like the use of lego and not another Luffy piece (no offense because as they are good, they get a bit boring). I like the red you picked out and the line shine detailing inside the lego block is pretty accurate. I think the font under it is great and you have a nice steady hand for fonts but you know I enjoy those already. I do think the white space here is okay but a border wouldnt hurt, maybe smaller legos as a border? I do think this one was good and nice to look at.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
A border could be added, maybe small legos all around in a square? Just an idea but nice job

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

No offense taken, though if you're going through my older work... best prepare yourself. ;) Smaller legos hmm, that could be something! Thanks for the review!

[Inktober #12]

Excellent

I think this one here, well this one was nice and had a fun element to it. I think the light red with yellow is the proper demonic colors to use and really worked well as an entire piece. I do think you could have added more of a border to this one and then gave it a more completed look. I also find the lines a bit too fuzzy, like the image is getting lost in a bit of a mess, but it is still good non the less. I think that you have a good talent with inktober submissions, but this one feels like it could have had more to it and I know you can do more.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More detail, add a border but nice overall

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

I'd say sketchy more than fuzzy, which I was going for a bit here, but thanks for the feedback! With the background in particular do feel it could've been clearer.

Nice change

Good job on doing something a bit different. I do like the change here and adding a hiaku. What an odd one tho, where did the dragon come from why is he sipping? So many questions, but good use of characters to match your hiaku. I think the line art is good for solid black inking and I do love your font as always, but I feel this one could have done with some color. I mean it is a dragon and those stand out much more with color and pizzaz. I think just next time add color and you'll be good. This did remind me of an old newspaper cartoon and really looks professional.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Try adding some color nice time, more so to the dragon

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

So many questions, and alas, no answers! XD If I recall correctly I was going for the most random thing I could think here. Mission accomplished? Good advice with the color, do think that would've looked better here. TY for the reviews!

[Inktober #8]

Decent

Ok this one needs work. You have great drawings and snow, and even a character from snow, but it is just too damn light in color. I had to really squint and look at this to see the details and all that. Maybe you were going for that snow-storm, white-out, effect, but it was just too much for me. I would make the vibrance of the blues more aparent and then darken the blue balls and character a bit. Maybe you could even add a glow to them to give the snow effect still and not lose the color to all this white? I think it is white-washed and I see great work behind that.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
The blue balls and character are lost in the white, so make them darker so you see them better, but good job non-the-less

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

I'm noticing that these drawings really look a bit different with different monitors, and with the one I'm currently viewing it through: can definitely see what you're getting at! At home it was so much clearer. Whiteout effect yes, but not this much... I'll keep this in mind.

Best yet

Ok so this one is about your best inktober yet because you've really grown and expended on these with a nice fresh outlook and more background features. I love the eyes on this guy and the overall expression with just the eyes works and lets you wonder what he is up to. The bits of color coming off of him is nice and keep a unique and consistent aspect that you use with your art that ive noticed. I think it is like a splatter thing you do for textures and highlighting. I do enjoy that and this was a good job.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Nothing to really change here, maybe a border to match the guy but it is nice as is

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

Hmmm we have a bit different tastes regarding bestness, but I am glad you liked it! :) Background maybe something to do with it? Was just going for something quick and comical with this but I guess it turned out alright. Thanks again!

[Pixel Cake]

Teh cake is a lie

Ok so this one here is ok here and not bad but a bit small. I know pixel art can be small due to the theme and size of it all, but I feel you could have added more to this in terms of size and maybe a setting. Maybe have people around the cake have their hands in the air or just animating the candles of the cake would have been a nice addition to this piece. I do like it tho and it is good for something new in your pixel artwork. I think keep it up, but maybe try the suggestions for the next one.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Maybe add more characters to this or animate it next time you do a pixel piece

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

XD Was wondering when someone would say that! This is true cake though. The cake is the truth.

I agree, would've liked to make something bigger too, but in lack of time I uploaded a game resource I had already made, and so... this was it this time. Do hope to do more next year!

[Merry Christmas!]

Nice

I think you have a great ability to make text into art. You should be creating fonts for sites as I do love the way your font looks in all of your art. You can tell you didnt just type it out but gave it real character. I love the textures inside everything and even the textures and patterns inside each background piece is nice to look at. I would add a border tho that fits the text and fix a small black error I see in the top left corner. Other then those bits of critique I do think you have a good talent and I hope to see more like this in the future.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Just add a border and fix a small black error

~X~

Cyberdevil responds:

I have been considering that actually. :) Found myself a service to make your own through a scanned set of letters. Just gotta start testing it out. Solid advice, and glad you liked this one too, thank you!
