im curious, why did you leave the hair blank? you have the line work there, even some faint basic linework in the hair area itself as if you had planned to do it, however you've left it perfectly white, so im very curious why you chose to do that?
a couple faults, that i noticed anyway, in a few areas your background shading has clipped into the image itself, the cloth hanging off her left arm, under the hand, it seems rather flat, lacking body and the linework doesnt really do it justice as i'd expect
and finally the shading on her right leg isnt as smooth as the rest of the piece and as a result it gives it a square and almost unatural feel that you've captured everywhere else
otherwise, excellent shading as i've come to expect from you, and the form and picture is really well done as a whole :)

Luciaea responds:

Hey, thanks for the comments.
Was going for an abstract deconstructivist feeling with the composition, hence the fabric and hair are white. The body too, to some degree, was meant to have more angles and control points - going more academical than realistic. so the right leg is square. the rest of the body should have been.
But yeah. some of the shading is off and a bit haphazard. In the end, I just wanted to finish this.

i really like this, well done! the only fault is a few patches of white that just done seem to quiet fit, and it would have been nice to see some of those construction lines just to be cleaned up a little.. however as a whole you can just pass it off as 'rustic n artistic feel'

but as an overall its something i'd put on my wall, well done! cant wait to see more :D

Luciaea responds:

Thanks for the review. It's a 30 min piece, so I didn't strive for perfection.

i really like the composition of this image i gave you 4 stars for 1 major reason, but when i look at this image the neck and below = 5 stars, however the face, just doesnt fit, it feels like its a completely diffrent skin color n diffrent skin highlights in general to the rest of the body, it also feels slightly too large but mainly the color it looks to me like what i'd expect from someone photoshopping someone elses head onto a body, and i know that seems harsh and im sorry but from the neck down, this picture is absolutly stunning your highlights your shading the texture even is amazing.. i especially love the wrist band/arm band thingo that looks great!

RushLightInvader responds:

Yeah i have better paintings i need to post. this was my 3rd paint i did ( i think ) Thank you tho :)

haha not going to lie, this probably isnt the greatest image have seen :P
so i mean where to begin, her right arm is broken, possibly no bone scructure at all, she would never be able to stand upright due to her/its head being larger than its torso, which mind you seems thinner than 1 leg, which is also possible broken? theres no spine? and the shading serves no purpose to the picture :D

so all that aside haha and i know its harsh :P it was a creative idea, which is 80% of the effort imo
so keep it up and dont be afraid to post we all start somewhere right :D this is what my work will look like if i leave the paper and start digital im sure, so keep practicing and goodluck :D

Miroko responds:

Wow, thanks for the honest review. :)
I was really not going to post this image but I think it's not fair to post those that I only like.
I'll keep in mind what you said, next time.

^dafuq is that person on..

anyway onto the review :D the piece is nicely done, the complete lack of shadow and rather stiff poses make for a very forced piece i feel however this type of image lets be honest, the suit n tie events like this are usually forced pose anyway.
if its for a tattoo piece i question why you chose to spread them so far apart, wouldnt it be more ideal to group them closer together in a more enclosed space and remove some of the unnecessary background work that will probably be skipped over in the tat anyway?
other than that i do especially love your freddy very well done there :)

good job and i dont know wtf the person above has been smoking, clearly forgot we're on newgrounds not the disney channel

LinesToThePaper responds:

Thanks for the review, can't really disagree with you on any of those points. The background stuff was really more for me, any of these big tattoo designy things (especially if I'm not trying to sell it to an actual tattoo parlor) I tend to think of it as how it'll also play as a web image, letting the tattoo artist decide what he wants to throw out. That said, your point about bunching them together more is a really good point and something I'll have to keep in mind for the future for this kind of work.

i know you'll probably end up hating my reviews haha :D but in this particular image, the houses on the right hand side, you obviously took a image of a house then worked off that image to redesign it into your own him right? because the top section of the roof still has corrugated tin roof and the peak on the right hand side of the roof still has the wall texure n window in it :D i would suggest if you going to use the images for reference perhaps consider removing them after doing your work, now that i've picked out the faults.. to the good stuff

your lighting in this image is really well done, your lack of detail yet when you look at the image as a grand scheme of thing and just sit back and observe its extremely well done, you think the man for example is wearing a coat n a hood but is only 6 lines, that to me is amazing theres a few scratch marks almost in the center above the guys head im not sure about, they dont seem to fit, the building in the distance is really well done, again the lighting and shadow there are very well done..

SkyrisDesign responds:

It is awesome to get an constructive review so please keep them coming! To answer your question, the house on the right was first painted, and then I applied texture using photos. But I do agree with you , I did do a pretty poor job. xD Ill keep that in mind in future work!

awesome :D really amazing
im curious, was it just the brush type that gave the image of a tree + the letters HD in the left hand tent? or is it just coincidental/im possibly going insane and seeing things? :P

otherwise i have nothing to fault you on, you have done an amazing job at drawing the eye towards the guy sitting there, and you have given a perfect ammount of detail to everything you needed too, your lighting and shadows are consistant
but yea the only thing that bothers me is the tree in the tent on the left :P and the HD

SkyrisDesign responds:

Omg.. you got an amazing eye xD

i actually really like this piece your shading is smooth, the facial expression works and makes me connect with the character the sword just makes me want to play final fantasy again, and the only main fault i have with this picture is your line work is not very smooth its very scratchy i would have liked to see you clean it up a little and make it feel like a final product rather than a early sketch :) but thats a minor flaw on what is a awesome piece, good job :)

TheUnseriousguy responds:

well i was going for sketchy style line art which i have seen done awesomely and i really like it but i'll certainly admit i didn't make it work as well as i'd planned

i would have liked to see smoother line work, notice how jagged it is, and how unatural that makes the piece feel, also the white smudges on the neck? i dont quiet get them either :P
also if your going to shade the chin from a top down light, there should be shading under the nose, and under the bottom lip and top lips :P but i can overlook that from the cartoon picture type, just clean the lines make them alot smoother keep it up and good job :)

ZekiDance responds:

Ah yes I totally agree with you! I could've done more but I just chose not to because I was tired. I might fix it more and re-upload it. c:
Thanks for the advice though! <3

I dont fully understand this piece from you, looking at your previous work, it doesnt really fit with what you seem to do, for example, and the whole reason im giving you 2 stars, your previous work your coloring is smooth, your shading is for the most part impeccable, your hand on the dragon ball, fantastic, but this.. the whales lines are clean granted..
the shading.. makes no logical sense at all, it just seems to have been applied almost randomly? then you've thrown the planets ontop which is fine, i can deal with that.. but you have scratched not shaded a galaxy i can only assume around that, which is in 100 diffrent directions its not smooth it doesnt capture the enormity of the picture.. i just really think you have either rushed this.. or it simply wasnt a passion project im not sure

either way, your previous work amazing. this particular piece i could just be an asshole who doesnt get it? who knows :) keep it up and keep at it

LucasMZ responds:

I understand you
In fact this piece is very different of what I like to do. But this one I wanted to make more... "light", without so much details.
A friend of me came with this ideia, he said he dreamed with this and asked if I could draw it, so I draw it XD
Actually I don't had spent a long time making this one, and I think it explains the quality of the geral result.
But thanks for commenting, it helps a lot ^^
(I'm brazilian and I'm not totally fluent in english, so I hope you understant any mistake I may have made)
