hi guys. I'm sorry I don't talk on here much...but here is the thing. I've been drawing and writing and whatnot for YEARS. so. fricken. long. But nobody EVER comments on my stuff. my friends will on occasion but really, nobody does. and i never really get constructive criticism like I'd like to have, y'know, to get better? Especially when I'm trying out a new style or I'm really proud of something...so...following what dylnmatrix did by promoting his music, I'm gonna post some or my art and whatnot here and see if anyone has tips or comments or something...so...thanks.

Hmm... well, I'm not really sure what to impart to you, broski. :U Your art looks pretty good already. Maybe look into certain lighting techniques when you get the chance, or just observe light when you can? For a relatively simplistic style, it's also got potential to become a little more complex/detailed with continued practise. :3

I really like the first image set. At first I didn't like it, but it grew on me, FAST (like, seconds). It has a cartoony look without being over done. -3-

The colours are good too. Vibrant, but not distracting (that first image makes me think I have a thing for red-heads, dat colour).

aw well i'm glad you really like the first one ^^ I have a thing for drawing girls with curly red hair...which totally isn't creepy since i have a good friend who has curly red hair >3>

I think I'm finally getting the hang of choosing the right colors and what goes with what. I really like more earthy tones and darker shades than bright vibrant ones, personally.

also, I'm working on a piece of Adventure Time fanart right now and its really out of my norm for colors and whatnot so I shall be posting that once its done.

Jeez. I really like your style, it's very simplistic and cartoon-ish, but also really nice to look at. Do you have a tumblr or deviantArt I can follow you on?

I know that I already told you this in Skype, but I want to see if I can spark ideas in any people reading the thread. Maybe they can add more?

Well, I don't see anything to fix except the colors coming out of the lines on their hair (but you probably already knew that). For what to add, maybe try doing some dynamic lighting? Like, have them walking out of a path in the woods (or something), with the exit being bright, and the light casting off them in the shaded woods. I dunno. I feel that would make it dramatic, and give it multiple meanings.
Deal with it.

Grey hair is odd. It looks odd on people unless they are supposed to look old (unless that's the case? Unless I'm conditioned too much). I like the hoody though, nice shade of green. Fitted well too. -w-
