This is...

awesome! haha, the colors are great, and i like the "don't hit me!" expression, the blood is spot on.

was this just a random idea?

emukid responds:

well ..yeah it was a random idea, drew him sitting, thought it looked boring, gave him a purple eye, and from there it just got brutal.

[Tower of Heaven]

[The Treachery of Clocks]

Mais, ceci 'est pas une faise...

nice take on a classic : D

Luwano responds:

Merci beaucoup!

I was thinking of "Ceci n'est pas une horloge." or "...pendule." but I think clock is a proper name in this case.

[Boxing Tigress]

:D

Pretty awesome, bro!

[Pharmacon]

Lovely!

Amazing pallette, man! love her clothing too.

[Qieth's Quips - Web Final]

Great composition but...

The drawing and composition are great!

You might want to work on your coloring/painting, though. Avoid using black to shade and white to enlighten. using scales like these, tend to create muddy and dull atmospheres. Use color saturation and complementaries/triads to shade instead of using shades of black.

Work around a focal point too; the background is way too lit to bring attention to your character; and the fireplace is a perfect prop to make the focal point.

You might want to make your highlights brighter around the fireplace, and giving everything an orange tint near it.

Don't be afraid to use bright highlights even in night scenes; it makes the important things pop up and look neat.

Don't forget to shade as well; near light sources tend to create sharp and darker shadows.

Magicalmelonball responds:

Thanks.

[Secret City]

Awesome

Great job on the textures and colors; great job on the ambiance too.

Only flaw that i see is that the shark itself is detailed; but the environment props feel out of focus and muddy.

If it was your intention to create a DOF effect, you might have wanted to size up foreground elements.

other than that. this is pure awesome!

[Astronaut Pool Party]

The dinosour sold it for me, But the astronaut's face/head would be better if it didn't completely fill the helmet.

love the idea, though : )

Rhunyc responds:

lol thanks, but it's not supposed to be his complete head inside of the helmet, it's just a smiley face painted on his visor. :P
