ZOMG SITTING KITTEN!! I WILL EAT!

[Sea of Light]

This is really cool! I love when people draw in the Gameboy/4 color palette as it's a very limiting decision which often leads to very nice looking results. The clouds look very cool and detailed, and I love how bumpy you made them. The beams of light are also very awesome and I love how you dried to make them transparent to the objects behind them by doing alternating shaded pixels. Awesome work, keep it up!!

GallowJolt responds:

Cheers man! Glad the transparency thing came across well

[Badger ink sketch 14/02/23]

This is nice! For some reason the combo of blue on white makes the picture feel very calm/peaceful. The badger looks very accurate to how it is in real life, and I love how you drew the fur. The subtle background is also very nice and cute. Great work, keep it up!!

STearleArt responds:

Ty very much!

[Drawing of Ristar!]

This is really cool! I really don't see Ristar drawn a lot haha but I really like how you drew him here. He looks happy and smooth, and his head shape is very accurate! Great work, keep it up :)

TheRandomStickfigure responds:

Thank you so much!! :D

[The skull]

Ooh, the colors are darker this time. Did you flip the caps upside down? It looks very cool though and I think the color choices are perfect for something more grim like a skull. The shape is very well done too! Awesome as always :)

FTerracciano responds:

Thanks, no, I didn't put darker caps, I worked a bit on the effects after taking the picture just to give the right shade to the skull as you rightly said. Thanks for your comments and support

[Peacock]

I love this! I think the bottle caps you've been using are perfect for something like a peacock, since the caps you use are very vibrant in color. Everything is so neat and nicely layered! Great job as always :)

FTerracciano responds:

Thank you,the bottlecaps i have a disposition are Blue, yellow and grey. Before of composing the image,I first try to make the contrasts between the colors so that they match as in the case of the peacock.

[Sun at sea]

Really clever idea with the reflection of the sun! I love how you made it have streaks of blue, as if the water has ripples making the reflection "imperfect" in a way. Really love how you did the border here too. Great work as always!

FTerracciano responds:

Thanks as always. In fact, to give this effect I had to work a lot with the blue tone caps and "plug" the black holes as well as match the borders and then frame them.

[Mushroom to Man III]

He's a big kid now!!

DonaldLPatten responds:

Big and obligated to pay taxes :)

[Cheshire but glitchy]

This is really nice :)
I love the style and the glitch text effect, it's really fitting. Really good harsh saturated color scheme too, really amplifies the mood of the picture and stuff. And linework is super clean. Awesome stuff as always, keep it up!

kmishama responds:

I shall I shall, and you keep up with your cool stuff too!

[Waves]

I really like the different strokes you put through the picture, it really makes the water look runny! And the tide/sprinkles of water at the end are very beautifully blended from the darker blue towards the white. Just an amazing way to draw water. Awesome as always, keep it coming :D

FTerracciano responds:

Heartfelt thanks for your support in all my work. In fact I had to work a lot to get this effect because the waves when they break on themselves before the white crest tend to change the blue tone.
