I can never get enough Jak...

So wait...if this is Sora...

He's gonna ride on Jak's shoulder?

Art - Review

VERY VERY GOOD

[Wolfwings Commission]

Where's her tail?

Another neat feature is to forget this common ani-human look in anime.

Try the same hair color as her fur...And you know how you can't see the whites of the eye's of a dog (or in this case a wolf). You know how starfire has green eyes with even GREENER pupils?

These are just suggestions to a drawing that is completely different from what you drew.

Some ideas you may or may not want to try.

Other than that...the drawing is cute to say the least.

[Daggy Piggy Back Ride]

MUCH better...but...

Where's the nice background?

Now it looks too empty...It's harder to distinguish the focus of a character(s) if the background is too white.

Character

Because your male character's color is so light..it's hard to distinguish his features instantly from a white background. If you look at other portrait examples...you will see what I mean.

Son23 responds:

Honestly, for this one, I kinda didn't want to do a background. That and I couldn't find a bright enough color that looked good against them (at least in my opinion). Most colors would just make them blend in to the background too much.

I do understand, though. It does take a second to notice some of his features. However that never caught my eye right away because I think I am so use to drawing him. He is my first OC.
I'll keep that in mind, and will consider a background change.

[PIKACHU, NO]

AH - nice of you to copy Mindchamber

It really is very VERY similar to Mindchamber's work.

HotDiggedyDemon responds:

okay?

[Nik'era The first sub villian]

Nice...she's got plant arms.

So is it kinda like the Ben 10 plant alien?

Where her arms can like...fuse with all plants and mutate to do her bidding? Or even fuse with her body to create a sort of monster?

Maybe she can have a sweet side and have flowers blossom out of her hair.

And it can also have a nasty side...her back side of her head can open up like a venus fly trap. She chould very well have 2 faces.

When she sits politely (like in Japanese style)..her arms could blossom around her and she sits in the center of the pedals of a huge Lilly Flower.

beastkid7 responds:

Wow ...I didn't know you had such a big imagination man. She could be like that chick from revenge of the fallen that . . .nah I don't want to spoil transformers if you havn't seen it yet.

oh and as you can see the art portal is now working for me!

[Sharp Dressed Aberrants]

Sou's got manga skills yo

But too much color...it's a bit busy in the background...

You need to learn to direct your attention to the characters.

Ex: Forget that lazy effect in the background of zig-zags. And Make the petals less hard. They should be softer.

It'll help direct the attention to the characters.

Son23 responds:

I see what you're saying. I felt proud of this but I did kinda have that feeling I was either missing something or something was off. I took your advice and it does look better, and the characters stand out a bit.

Manga Studio 4, as far as I know, does not have any way to soften images. So I have lowered the opacity a bit. Since a lot of the picture is dark colors the petals still stand out.

[Bereavement Cover]

A good use of ink.

I love it how people can make awesome effects with just the humble pen.

But the shading of the character and the building in front seems just a bit off...

If it's night...shouldn't the front part of his body and face be all...dark...cuz the light is comming from 'behind' him?

JoSilver responds:

It really more of reflects the way I'm drawing the comic... I honestly don't care for shading... I only do shading to add detail and I'm bad at it...

[Tricky in the Sun]

I love how he's staring down at you...

It' so....like the evil clown.

I love the use of the effects you did...Photoshop?

[Battle Sabre Design (1)]

Transforming Robot for a side scroller shooter/brawler?
