another wonderfull addition...

Love this one to bits... the simple NG grey background really makes it look cool and the simple lighting behind it just brings it up a touch... loving the shading on the pearls and lips, it justs shows how little amounts of colour can give it a huge amount of depth... not quiet sure on the necklass... doesnt seem to fall in the right place nor fit in (seen as they are all the same size... most likey copied and pasted) apart from some at the bottom which seem to have been squished and are now fatter... still loving the curves on the hair and body... wouldnt want to say anything that would make you change this truely iconic style of yours... 10/10 this time :3

BizarroJoe responds:

Hmm... The necklace beads are, indeed, copied and pasted because obviously the perspective won't change their actual dimensions... And that's why I found so strange that the beads at the lower end seem distorted,,they're only put one in front of each other... It looked fine in the vector file, maybe something wrong happened when exporting...
I've also noticed a really lighter square surrounding the image, I'll see if that can be edited (and watch out for not happening again in the future... although I was aware and careful this time, next time I'll crop one or two pixels for getting sure.)
Thank you for your comments, You've been really helpful!

Detail is key...

and my word have you done detail... the quality of detail in this is exteamly high... the finenes of the line and miror immage is great... left eye seems a tiny bit smaller then the right eye but i really love it... top quality work

Clean cut...

Very clean... very well done, very neat... i feel her forhead is a tad square or flat... and not as rounded as i would have thought it would have been... shoulders seem very far down as well.. but i love the shading and the qualtiy... 9/10

MangArtist responds:

Thank you!
Gotcha. This was supposed to be an anime portrait of my friend so I was trying to get some of the head anatomy to look the same, but I can see what you mean by it looking flat. Should have added more shading. -_-
Gosh, I see what you mean about the shoulders. O_o (just noticed)
Thanks again! :D

yet another lovely piece of artwork

the tree doesnt seem very realisitic due to the face the brances wouldnt be that close together nore would they have so little twigs coming of them... that aside, the colours are striking and deep a nice feel to the piece with the black widow spider along side a woman in very gothic clothes, love the attention to the face with the slighty red nose as if she is cold or has been crying (like she doesnt feel to good)... nice shine effect on the web string... and all the other little details that bring it up a touch... good work and would love to see more...

Mrew responds:

Thank you very much. :]
I have a hard time with trees in colour, I need to practise. :<

Love the colours and details...

the amount of details and attention to each one is very high... the linework isnt spot on but its bold and shows you what you need to see... bag strap *tri force* seems very flat and could use with some bumping up and shadows, the rest of it seems very good overall because theres so much to take it... and so many minor faults with it... but overall a good piece of illustration...

Leema-k responds:

Thank you very much for the comment. I see what you mean. Maybe i can fix it some how

[aisha number one]

like the doodle...

a few things look out of place for example her right shoulder looks strange with the fabric going down that much... also the top of her legs must be very toned to be that thin... seen as they get rather fat as they progress down... also her left hand seems small and same with her wrist...

suzuki-zombie responds:

Hey thanks a bunch dude. I'll use that advice in future art.

[Amber as Cassandra]

as illustration goes...

its nice... however i feel her arms are some what shorterthen they should be or it could just be the fact ones hiden behind a shield and ones at a strange angle... the colouring and shading on this one is better then the last one.. the sheild i would like to point out has a rebounced lighting effect which is a nice touch... the reflextive areas are nicely placed if not a tad over used... overall a good illustraion...

[Sonia as Medli]

fantastic hair...

however... the hair is will done with the layers and all but the line art isnt great... it seems to basic and your relying on colours and shading to make the picture better but am affraid that your not putting the shading where its required... for example a large area of her grey dress is nearly the same colour... but some shade within the areas of the folds of which you have already drawn in prior to colouring... simple details really give it charm... but failing to get proper shading on this piece really kills it... i hope you can see what im getting at and see improved pieces... :3

kevinsano responds:

this pic is kinda REALLY old, whatever you say isn't really relevant to my current situation anymore... :3

Great use of textures

The linework by its self is alright... could use with a bit of touching up here and there... the mono tone shading is well used but the thing that really makes it, is the texture underneath it all... without it, it would be average... but with it makes a hell of a difference and looks rather cool... i wouldnt say its perfect...
