I think the whole image is lovely except for the boy's shadows body shape, something about it doesn't sit with the rest of the image? The tonal quality is awesome, overall it's looking badass.MurrayMahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17266072772344467251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207473389012123894.post-16334291268136646342009-06-02T12:54:36.249-07:002009-06-02T12:54:36.249-07:00you just said the palette was too weird lol yeah ...you just said the palette was too weird lol yeah i copied the bricks on the top part from my house- thats the way they are laid :S ive done that deliberately yeah because it looked really monotonous with all the bricks in rows last time i drew it in that way.<br />what do you think of this version?Milanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13032110602480436601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207473389012123894.post-17420751811269376552009-06-02T12:45:48.299-07:002009-06-02T12:45:48.299-07:00any builder will tell you there's an established p...any builder will tell you there's an established pattern to building a wall - it seems like you've gone a bit random, and then when it gets to the top of the building they look more like space invaders (though I think your idea of showing wear by not having all the lines makes for a more interesting image) - I actually like the colours - don't go the other way and feel you can only be a duotone man - My criticism was aimed mainly at the mechanical one :)Chiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13375137598312709642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207473389012123894.post-77825265097066686402009-06-02T12:26:46.565-07:002009-06-02T12:26:46.565-07:00yeah ill mute the colours and maybe change the pur...yeah ill mute the colours and maybe change the purple to a blue/black to correlate with the rest of the images so far. although it will look a bit depressing if i stick to blue and black for everything lol i know it looks like a rainbow has thrown up onto that mechanical one, ill do somethign with that.<br />im going to change the mouse because yeah it looks like its been told to sit in the middle (if it were a real mouse) so its symmetrical.<br />i think it needs more attention too- i might give it a cheeky lantern to hold. ill redraw it big and shrink it like ive just done for the tnnel one.<br />whats up with the bricks :S is it because they're purple?Milanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13032110602480436601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207473389012123894.post-60435340063639758212009-06-02T11:30:40.640-07:002009-06-02T11:30:40.640-07:00white text is not legible enough, plus I feel the ...white text is not legible enough, plus I feel the mouse is too symmetrically positioned, bricks look odd too? But I'm quite taken by the colour - However I don't think your idea of a change of colour is working, because the palette you use is just too weird - especially with the one with half the boy's face looking at the mechanical partsChiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13375137598312709642noreply@blogger.com
