okie yah thats better... i get what you did in the first one i like that alot but in the second one the magenta is like really over powering, like i try to look at gambit and my eyes keep flicking around the rest of the picture... i know this isn't a critique of your work i just wanted to share my thoughts

well magenta is the correct color for his powers and the glows coming off his cards, so you can't argue with that

It was a bit strong. I think however it was used to show contrast and allow the artist to see where the improvments are needed. For the one she posted of mine, I can clearly see where I need to make the changes.

Thanks Nei!

This is a good critique but somthing i am a bit confused on is the link at the bottom were you say you've altered the page a little to better demonstrate links back to the funny little boy pic you did (cool pic BTW)

but you did the same thing in this [link] critique were you said you had monochromed the cards but again it links back to the pic of the boy...

Well, Tim, when I inked this way back when as a sample for my portfolio, I never thought I'd see it in color, so this was definitely a gift! Thank you!

With each piece I've seen you do lately, I can see the improvement. And with each critique or comment, you take that advice and try to do better. Good attitude!

Well thought out review here, too, Bakanekonei!

timtilley In reply to Billnichols [2009-04-23 20:55:20 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Bill! I try to improve. I never know where I am going wrong or what needs improvment without critiques. Every bit of advice helps. I tried to get feedback from Digditalw Webbing's forum, but they are so quick to help one another there.

Nei has been very helpful and I appreciate all her help.

This piece was fun to color, and you are a fantastic inker. When I get caught up I'll try to color more of your pieces.

timtilley In reply to ??? [2009-04-23 06:44:27 +0000 UTC]

I actually asked Nei for a critique because my art CAN and does NEED roo be better. I wanted tolarn something from her since I admire her work

With that.. Thanks Nei. I have this PSD file still so I think when I finish the paid work I am working on, I will go back and work on the two pieces you critiqued.

I will say that I hated this era of Superman, I don't know what Mr. Carlin was thinking when hought of killing the character and bringing him back like this.
That said I colored it for the inker as a gift of sorts.

I will try and make the shadows pop a bit more, I am however not sure on how to make it more original.

once more, thank you for taking time to critique this for me. I have learned a lot form you and look forward to learning more in the future.

WhiteHowler7 In reply to ChrisBryer [2009-04-23 03:15:07 +0000 UTC]

then why dont you give him a critique? i'm sorry, but telling me his art could have been better is rather disrespectful. same on the other critique i just gave, you need to stop it.

???????.......Calm down, calm down, have a piece of cheese..

I dident mean no rudeness to you are the artist but i dident think you or the artist would mined....but it seems i was quite wrong....dont mean to step on other peoples toes.......

If you want you can rate my art and make it like one star...it would make me sad...and mostlikely maker you happy to see me cry like a bitch, that works for most people i know..

I'll have to ask Bill who inked it, but I assume it was drawn in the 1990's.
