[The Winter Reptile and the Summer Sunset]

Hey! Wonderful job!

The winter reptile is such a peculiar choice of character to represent winter. The serpent, as cold-blooded that they are, (I see what you did there) could adapt their temperature to compliment the weather. How awesome is that!! And because of that, your choice is one of the few outside-of-the-box kind of ideas. And I like that!

When I look at the image, I totally can feel the warm hot weather and yet I can still feel the coldness of the reptilian. Awesome composition!

Overall, well done mate. Well done.

p/s: That horn is Bae.

Thank you very much:)

[Winter's Curse]

I love your process vid. The poem you read out is eerie and at some point even being creepy, nice voice. But it works so well. Congrats! And good luck.

IrmaZwart responds:

Thanks so much! I kinda love dark and eerie stuff, so that's good :D
Your entry is really nice too, btw. Very "cool" ;-)

[Lost in Winter]

In order for me to see this through, I went through all of your work in deviantart and I gotta say, you have a wonderful mind and mentality. The work you produce is naive and fun. You have your style, and in order to developed that style I would say...

Patience.

Patience is the key to make your art better! I think, to be honest, when painting every stroke on your canvas, you need to remind yourself that the artwork is will never be perfect. As do mine, but, lets say you continue adding bits by bits....I mean, you don't need to go on all one go, but add some paint...lets say daily. for half an hour of your time. Keep adding paint. And it doesn't need to be the same color! because you can always cover it with the right color! Also, never be scared to add different color. a pink, purple, and yellow orange! Add it in. Once you do that, then add the "right" colour, it will surprise you how much it change the look of your painting. NEVER GIVE UP. KEEP ADDING PAINT.

But all this is PATIENCE. Keep at it. And you'll bring joy.
Cheers!

KipperTheKitten responds:

Thank you ^-^
This is really helpful, normally I do try to get it mostly done at once, but I will definitely try adding different colors daily.

["Crazy Love" ...No, It's Just a Little Crush.]

Those chandeliers are stunningly rendered.
Nice bit of textures. Your rendering skills are on point. Lovely. Romantic and tragic. the message conveying the characters are at its best. Bravo!

Best of luck for us both!

AddaWhite responds:

Thanks! I really appreciate your comment because I wasn't feeling very proud of this drawing. You brought my confidence back. Thank you again. :*

[New Resolutions (Mustapha Cario from Cadillacs and Dinos)]

For making this with a mouse, and yet still insist in drawing a really complicated sprite/pixel art. I see you have a very big ambition. I mean to be honest, even if its not outstanding, you still in fact tried. Not many people comes in with a high spirited mood and drop when they least realize it is not in their expectation, but you sir, you kept on going. You drew. You post. You made it. Proud of you mate:)

Cheers.

MovingxDeath responds:

Thx for Encouraging me sir!!!!!!!! and also thx for ur support!!! :D

Happy Clock Day!

[Bender In Real Steel Life]

You did it man. You did it. Take your rest, and I hope you planned to make more. Congrats on getting Frontpage!

Can't believe you made your own Bender!

Silverbullit responds:

Hi there mate,
You know your feedback is greatly appreciated!
I am surprised that so many has visited Bender, seems over 300 skilled artists of our fellow forumfriends has checked Bender out. *dropping my jaw to the floor*
And so many real artists have given Bender thumbs up and that really means a lot to me - thanks EVERYBODY for yoru kind support!
Frontpage? I am to new to know exactly, but I am very curious where do I find this?
Yes it is very nice to have my own Bender, wish I could do one for all friends that appreciate them...
In the robomance thread where u and I discussed Bender I upped some closeups of him,
do you suppose our mates here would like to see them pics?
If so, can I just make them public in the gallery?
Thanks again for your immediate support TaraGraphics.
I really don't not know if I would have posted the entire Bender outside the Robomance challenge otherwise.

[Hooked on you]

I like the analogy of virgin blood on valentines day. The texture and lighting are well define. Simple, yet you displayed it professionally.

There should be an over light and water overlay that blends the sea with the object. I suppose that this is the sea, due to its color(vast blue). It can't be a lake, or a pond. The color does not match up. But if this was the sea. I prefer using a smaller fish as bait, than a worm.
Sorry, sometimes I observed too hard.
But overall, you win me over. Applause:) and thanks for the PM.

Luwano responds:

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I wanted use a clear blue and have an empty space, so it has to be the sea. You wouldn't use this type of hook either when you go deep sea fishing. I just chose this kind of hook and a fat worm as bait because they worked for my idea.

I don't see the flood as a competitive activity. If I did, I had stopped joining after the first friday flood event. So while I thank you for the compliment, I don't think anybody wins over another. I'm glad you joined in and hope to see you around, should there be another flood.

Thanks for the review!
