[Cyborg Guard Brutality Issues]

What a fiendish foe! I like the creatively futuristic cityscape here - buildings blown into the rock and all, full landscape exploited, backstory too, and the angle that really shows high tall the fall is. Also: is that a self-portrait under his food there? Lots of easter eggs to look at here, though for most the zoom isn't quite enough to get a good read! Also appreciate the not-too-obtrusive signature there. Doesn't seem like a place I'd like to live, but looks good to look at. :)

[Imagination; Source of Life]

A beautiful piece. The skin's bright like the sun, a warmth radiating through the starry void: a universal truth, wandering the cosmos. The hand of the creator painting a motive of the stars... that's pretty symbolic too! Might not break off so well with quite any picture, though I wonder if it was intended or just happened to be there? Nice work.

PrettyGeek responds:

Thank you for your kind words, they're very appreciated! I'm glad that the depth and luminosity I was aiming for have come through.

[Jilted Sunrise]

Nice poem, and a nice picture! Symbolic: a jilted sun rising through the waves? I like to imagine that's the way she looks down upon the world; scorched Earth of our hibernate. Nice work.

[Dawn and Dusk]

This looks beautiful! So smooth and colorful, warm and cold, full of contrast and clashing symmetry. I like how it's all enveloped in a wave and circle too, like yin and yang, though the clear white background steals a bit of the 'light'. I wonder how it would've looked if all was dark. Either way: beautiful work!

dragorazer responds:

Thank you, I do agree that the white background doesn't work so well, i made the white background as a mistake with the background I originally made it clear but I exported it in the wrong file and I couldn't be bothered changing it haha

[skull character]

A pretty cool-looking random character wearing a ram skull on their head!

dragorazer responds:

Haha thank you

[Egg]

A slick and stylistic sketch! And I like how the lines thin and thicken (seems like Wacom work?). Nice work.

Nekuma responds:

I made this with my samsung note 5 smartphone :D (app calls Infinite Design)

[Happy late Halloween!!!]

Pretty cool how the mascara matches the irises of the eyes, and a sharp contrast against the background black and white too. Stylish with just the three level layer color, and great shading that doesn't take away from the pale white.

Thanks :3

[Still Life of cups and container by April Phelps]

Glass/cup looks pretty natural. On the container, the angle of the lid doesn't really match the angle on the table though. Shading and line-work's good, proportion a bit off. I like the touch of blue btw, really lights up the picture.

AprilP responds:

That drawing was alot of fun to do. I tried my best. I just need more practice with realism still life. We all begin somewhere. Thanks for insight!

[My Dogs Lazy Sunday - Coloured Pencil by April Phelps]

The coloring feels a bit sketchy and rushed on this one, with a bit much white shining through, but line works nice otherwise. The curled up body looks a bit strange, like the front part of the dog's distant - far behind the back part. Otherwise not bad.

-cd-

AprilP responds:

I was going for the sketchy look and I only gave myself 10mins to do it. Can u elaborate on what you mean? Do you mean I have the perspective?

[We Have Fallen Down]

Symbolic and styleful. Nice work.
