Very Simple
It looks like a bunch of poorly drawn shapes with a gradient slapped across all of them. The style isn't badly done, though. The contrast and the shapes of each fill, while very cartoony, worked surprisingly well and the overall result is decent. It could use a background though... The skin tone blended with the white background made it a little hard on the eyes.
yea, sorry i didnt put much effort into it. I was just realllllllllllly bored and felt like putting this up. lol
Needs Perspective
I really like the shading on it... The texture for the leaves and the totem pole are very stylish. However, certain sections of it look kind of flat. For instance, the base might look cool if it were rough and maybe worn down at some areas, but the way you drew it the base instead looks like it's just flat. Certain sections around the pole look the same way. The frog is kind of weirdly drawn too. It looks entirely layered and 2-dimensional, so I would consider patching that up, or changing the entire style to make it look more cartoony. The frog also looked like it was supposed to be an important part of the picture, but fell short. Perhaps something in the background, different shading, or even some color might highlight it.
Appreciate the review! :) I have considered going back and adding a jungle scene in the background to give you a feel of the environment. This particular drawing is very old, back when I didn't take my work too seriously haha. I did kind of rush certain aspects of the picture but I will definetly look into touching it up!
Interesting
There's an interesting style to it, but it looks kind of odd. From the blurriness it makes me think you're aiming for a realistic look, but all of the details on the surface of it look unnaturally clear. The outer edge is also kind of odd... It seems to rim around the sun making it look almost 2D. That glare should be going around the entirety of the sun, so the surface should look more crimson and less yellow.
hmm. i think your right! i will have to see if i can make it a little bit more blurred in the front. i originally had it much more blurred but then it just looked silly. mabey a bit more blur would help. Thanks for the review!

This is pretty weird, but I kind of like it. Everything behind the layer of blood looks like it's been coated in film grain, which adds a uniqueness to it. The blood didn't look like it was on the face, which kind of confused me. I really don't know what I'm seeing here, but it's a pretty cool piece nonetheless.
Wow!
The asphalt, the reflections, the lighting, the texturing, the proportions... All spot-on.
OMFG!!
Holy shit! I saw this on the Art Portal and thought to myself "whoa, that looks like a photo". The resolution is incredible!! It looks like it came out of an animated movie or a video game... Except the resolution is better than 99% of animated movies or games! The background is great, the proportions are realistic, but what stood out the most (obviously) is the ridiculously masterful use of texturing and lighting. I have been blown away.
Christ!
That thing is epic! Reminds me of the Malboro species from Final Fantasy. The lighting was badass and it carried out the theme very well! The only thing I thought could have been better was stuff in front of his mouth. The stringy stuff connecting his mouth had the same coloration as his skin. If you had made it thinner or changed the color scheme of it, the creature would have looked way more vile.
Good
There's some great subtleties and transparencies going on in this picture. Also some great lighting effects on both the balloon and the branch. The only real problem is the way the lightning glows, making it look soft, whereas real lightning is a bit streakier.
Wowzorz!
The lighting is incredible!! Love the 3D effects; they look soo realistic! Cool mecha, dude. Next time maybe you could put in a background, or make the mecha move around or fire its weapons, since it would really bring out the lighting.
Holy Shit!!
That's a great illustration!! I recognized the face immediately and clicked it in a nanosecond. Proportions are great and it looks extremely realistic!
However, I saw a couple weird goofs. I get you're going for black and white, but it looks like his skin could be a bit more shadowed. It looks like his skin is glowing... Not sure if that was intentional, though.
yeah it could have been a bit more shadowed and i was trying to have almost a glow effect. i wanted that to be like reflected light from stage lights or whatever =]
