[State of Decay]

cool

Not bad dude. You have done a pretty good job in creating movement in the piece. The only thing I would say is, the background is pretty blurred and stuff which is fine because its behind the subject, however you should try sharpening/detailing the subject where you want the eyes to look. its pretty hard to see where the light source is though. Other than that its cool

Rhunyc responds:

Thanks man, I appreciate it. :)

[Rupert & Dr.Monk]

I like it :)

Nice and clean!! like the way u did the hands

[Kisses]

Keep it up!! :)

Not bad dude. I would recommend using a a randomised scatter brush with white to get those hot spots on the alien head to get that shiny look they have :)

Nice one :)

darthnebula responds:

True, I was having a tough time making the bastard shiny lol

[Dragon Slums]

COOL

I like the composition on this :)
It would look sooo awesome if the cracks were glowing from lava as if you cant fall in because of that or something :P ... nah its cool man! I like the blue lanterns... compliment the yellow hues nicely :)

[The Penguin]

Nice :)

I love Dave Rapoza... My last piece I did was dedicated to him :p... well.. inspired after watching his streams :) nice piece.. see when u upload... should upload it a little smaller to see it a bit more zoomed in cos i cant fit the whole thing on my screen ahah :P

[COTT: Tower]

nice

nice painting :) .... as for the person below... I dont think blue would have worked :S ... it might have clashed too much.

[Ondray]

Nice

Reminds me a bit of Nightmare Before Christmas haha... I think its the skinny legs and elongated figure.... to the person below.... Photoshop isnt cheating. Someone who can't draw wont all of a sudden be able to paint amazingly if they have a tablet and PS - you have to know how to draw naturally too.

[firefly study]

Pretty good

Hey dude.... from the bottom of the nose up seems fine.... but I cant help but see something rong with the shape of her jaw.. and something funny with the teeth. But other than that the skin tones are well painted and the eyes are well painted! :D

theWesley responds:

thanks for the review :) you are spot on with what you said too, the entire shape of the head was giving me nightmares and the teeth are too flat, i didnt arch the jawline nearly enough :P but thats why we study, gotta learn somehow

[Run To The Hills]

Not baddd

Hey nice painting here. The only thing I would mention is the light source and getting that contrast right so the eye has focal point or focal points to stare at. A thing to try is painting in greyscale so its just black and white - this gives you a really good starter on values which is very important and then colour over the top in another layer :D other than that... nice frontpage
