[Ball old pencil sketch]

The shading on this ball is very smooth for a pencil drawing, and very realistic. It's even more amazing how accurate you managed to draw a circle, since I know how hard that can be. I think you did a great job on this!

ArtTriad responds:

Thank you. That's very kind of you

[Fire Imp]

This drawing looks as if it was drawn with a pastel, really cool! I love all the different shades from red to yellow, and the contrast you used for the outline of the imp. The imp is very cute itself, and looks very friendly haha

Keep up the great work :)

Drummarts responds:

Thank you! I actually used the Dry Gouache Brush in Clip Studio Paint but I was going for that pastel look. The actual pastel tool just didn't look quite as right

[Winter]

This picture feels very cozy, and the texture you used on the girl is great. I love the shading especially on the coat, it really helps establish the roughness. The hair is very well drawn too! The background has very beautiful colors, and the small canvas like texture makes the piece feel even cozier somehow. Anyways, really sweet work!

ArtTriad responds:

Thank you for your kind review. You are very observant, I appreciate it.

["THERE'S NOBODY TO BOMB HERE!"]

I like both of these, both a clear sky and a cloudy sky have their own perks :)

This eagle character has a very interesting design, but what impresses me even more is the city in the BG! So much little details, characters, and atmosphere are built up by that city alone. It also conforms to the color scheme very accurately, so the whole picture has some kind of "color mood". Very cool towers in the back there too, are they supposed to look like animals? The black one kinda looks like a squid, and the red one like an isopod. Anyways, keep it up!

AmericanMuscleHead responds:

Thanks. I looked at images of Aztec architecture and Anasazi cliff dwellings when doing this piece, as a means of inspiration.

[Dudley]

I love this "washed out" kinda feeling you did with this piece. The colors fit very well, and the slight texturing over the body makes it feel very scrapbook like. Anatomy is great and the depiction of the character is very accurate. Great job :D

CayFettArt responds:

Thank you! I really appreciate the thought and detail you put into this feedback. It really helps.

Very moody, and I love the green monochrome colors you got there! Also love the slight foliage because it feels like just the right amount of detail, and the moon is very nice :)

Bnouze responds:

Thank you for the encouragements !

[Dragon Ball Drip]

Meme overboard or not, this is really well drawn haha. Great job! Love the West City bg you got there too, helps establish setting :)

Cukkucake responds:

Thank you! Honestly after drawing this I might just start making more art with urban fits cause the clothes were surprisingly fun to draw

[Hells Gate]

This looks like the final boss of the original Doom 2, really nice drawing! The crowd was a cool addition to make this feel more ominous

Luminus14 responds:

Thank you!

[knight study]

This is super detailed, and you got such accuracy on the roughness of the metals! The reflections on this work are insanely surreal. Love it!

Eurns responds:

thanks man!
