[The girl with the dragon kimono (2/3)]

I feel that this one strikes the most because of the dark energy you feel from the black ink strokes.

It exudes this type of feeling that something is about to happen, and it doesn't have to be flashy to feel intense.

I also think that having the paper texture gives it a more real feeling, something you can imagine the texture of.

I also love the colors and design of the kimono.

You hear about that show Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba? Your character could fit into that show with like no problem, it fits the whole era and magical aspect!

Hope to see more cool stuff from you in the future!

PkBlitz responds:

Thank you so much! I am watching Kimetsu no Yaiba and loving every second of it. I wonder if it subconsciously affected any of my choices in this drawing...

You won't have to wait too long for my next piece :D

[KOFI-Lunabelle]

The purples, blues, and yellows that fill this piece really go well together.

The painted strokes transitioning to each new color is very smooth while also give a good feeling of it being fur.

The Lighting also works fairly well as you highlight important parts of the piece by making them brighter.

I hope to see more cool pieces from you in the future!

[Oni Outfits 02]

The colors of this piece are very nice.

The light blue really goes well with the blond hair with dark blue tips, really giving a nice youthful vibe.

Also, I love how basically she doesn't really need shoes (or just doesn't wear them) cause she is a tough-looking character with a softy's heart.

I hope that we get to explore more of the world this character comes from in future illustrations!

Cee-Haz responds:

Yo thanks! I'm glad you like her. I got some stuff cooking for things to explore more in their yokai filled world.

[MEdusa (w/th Weasels)!]

I love the emotions in all of the weasels!

It really gives the piece a feeling of being more alive and adds a bit of comedy.

The fur textures are also really well done, with them being simple with little lines and when you want more big changes to color you incorporate some gradients.

I wonder what other characters you could make with this idea...

Anyways, I hope to see some more great pieces from you on here!

[GGK from Carole & Tuesday!]

The space effects in this piece are gorgeous!

And the posing of the character and the gesture of the hands really gives a flowing motion, adding to the lines that appear in the background.

My only real critique is that I think that maybe some smoke or clouds could be in the background reacting to the light of the universe. Kinda like those pictures of space where they show all the blooming colors.

I really am excited to see more pieces from you!

SebastieneArt responds:

Thank you SO much for the critique! I should've definitely added visible clouds to make the background pop even more. Thank you for the compliments as well!

[wanna play with me?]

I like the lines of the piece a lot!

It has a heavier thickness with not much taper at ends with gives a good cartoon look.

Reminds me a lot of Haida from Aggretsuko in a way, I think it's the eyes that are giving me the vibe.

My really only critique of the piece is that the shading doesn't seem like it was really added enough.

Maybe putting on some more parts of the character and guitar could give it some more depth, you know?

I hope to see more pieces from you, and keep improving!

AlanNG responds:

Thank You so much!
I will have this things in mind!

[Shinji]

I just love his look of "I'm so tired of this hot garbage all around me".

He just wanted some love from his father, and all he got was death, explosions, and depression.

I really like the shading in this, very soft on the skin but more hard-edged on the shirt.

The hair and eyes really stand out in a good way too.

Good job, and I hope to see more from you!

[Warhammer Susie]

I really love the pose of Susie!

The colors are very popping and the lines feel strong.

The only critique I have is that in lots of spots where you reach a corner you the color doesn't go all the way to the edge which results in gray spots here and there.

I would try using some layer masks to help stay within the outer lines of the piece but also let you add color wherever you want.

And that layer mask can be messed with so you can make some parts where color wouldn't be disappear.

You can also fill up spots of color like this with the paint bucket tool, just change the tolerance amount and it should fill up entire spaces without affecting the other parts.

I hope to see some more stuff from you and I hope that this critique helps a bit!

LeoneoftheStars responds:

Thank you soooo much for the help! It will <3 I have been trying to figure out how to do that because when I use the bucket tool, it's NEVER filled all the way.. So this will help alot! <3 <3

[Fierce Deity]

I really enjoy the linework of this piece, it is simpler but it builds up to make this more complex image.

I also like the pink hue and the way you did the hair and gems, very smooth and nice.

My only critique of the piece might just be that you can really see where you were trying to cover an area with marker to fill it in.

I think you could fix that by making the clothing of items more simple in shading so that it is made of blocks of color than transitioning colors.

You could still get shading, but you would need less space to fill up an area.

Hope to see you improve more and more as time goes on!

Wuyiyi responds:

Aaah, thank you so much! ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ
Honestly, it's hard to use black markers when the run out on you all the time. X,D

[mark lee; we go up]

I really love the soft look of the colors.

It screams this mood of calming pink, the colors you'd see near the end of day.

The pose is also really good in portraying the type of person, making them seem a little rebellious you know?

I think what would be a really nice idea for another piece could be doing this same style but having a background that is like a spring city.

Maybe a park with lots of dangling leaves.

I really think playing on this style would be a lot fun.

Anyways, I hope you enjoyed making the art!
