[Saying the same thing 6 different ways]

This is a great idea and seems like a good exercise. You made some charming, creative panels! I really like your work!

Sabtastic responds:

Why thanks!
We had a few other neat exercises that might be worth posting - everything really helped to push creativity when designing comic panels.

You really stepped it up on this Warty!

I think the next push you could make is to try and compose your lighting as well. It still feels a bit universally lit, the eye has a focus on the figure but the lighting wants us to prioritize everything still.

I think maybe you should only push the details on the foreground environment elements, the trees in the back have a lot of the foliage detail going on and I think that can take away from the front ones. Though I think you did good in simplifying the trunk of those trees, and how the front rocks and water have a lot more information in them.

One tiny thing is you didn't carry that highlight on her arm into the hand. She's got a really cool design, I love gold trim armor as you've probably seen me try a lot haha. Great job on the materials, its clear what you're communicating.

Thanks alot Luis! :) I'll keep your advice in mind for the next one :)

[Emoticon Game]

I really dig this piece. The perspective you implemented is very well done. Its a tough composition for something so busy but your focus is clear here. The little orange guy was something I didn't notice right away against the warmer lights of the scene. Great work though.

thank you :D

[Star Eater]

I love the amount of detail in your work. It shows a lot of control that you don't lose readability in your forms. Nice job!

AKS9 responds:

Thank you LuisEC : )

[The viper]

Definitely one of your most ambitious things Warty! You did a solid job. I think the darks in the armor are a little too intense, and something about the value transitions feels a little fuzzy. The crowd in the back is still very dark when next to the lit wall (I'm guessing the wall is quite far away but the values of the crowd don't communicate that as well)

wartynewt responds:

thanks man! great critique! :)

[Master Please Eat Me]

Great job! this was quite a lengthy piece. The cereal bits definitely must have been a pain, they don't really communicate that to me right now. Incredible linework as always.

LUUUIIISS thanks!!! <3 <3 <3
