Incredible!

Jag, this is mind-boggling. When you posted the preview pic in the contest thread I was expecting something cool, but this was a totally awesome surprise! The idea is very creative, I love how the ghost spirits resemble the characters! I had to kind of search for Bitey at first, and I'm glad he's in there too!

Art related-wise, the coloring is great as always, I'm immediately drawn to the face of the pumpkin as the focus point. Your shading style is top notch and I really enjoy the color choices (especially the blue outline of mr. pumpkin!) I think the only possible qualm I could have with it is the reaching out hand. It looks really thin compared to the other one, but it's probably just me.

Really great job on this, fav'd for sure!

thanks AwesomeSaurus! i was a little worried at first that there would be too much going on, but its interesting how you can lead the viewer with just colors. i like experimenting with things like that. thanks mate!

Honestly, Zane. .

I don't know if you were going for this or not, but I seriously can NOT stop laughing every time I stare at it's face. Really, stare at it for like 30 seconds and don't laugh, I dare you to try!

Art-wise, lines are clean, but could use some smoothing out in areas that seem 'lumpy' if you know what I mean. It could have used some color, but for what it is, it's great!

ZaneZansorrow responds:

It all began one stickam session before, and I doodle an expression because I haven't done much digital art lately but I find the expression too familiar of a cat and then shade and fill out the rest ;D and yeah, an expression like that is hard to keep in lmao xD. yeah I know what cha mean on the lumpy >3>, I'll fix up on that eventually :3

Damn Cute!

Ridiculously clean flowing lines, great use of limited colors, and the curviest drawing style you've ever seen? Must be one of good ol' BizzaroJoe's! Really fantastic, can't say enough good things about it. I love the expression on her face, and the posture of the cat like it truly is being 'snuggled.' It's interesting to see an animal in your style, and I think you handled it wonderfully! Great work, Joe!

BizarroJoe responds:

Well, that was the main trouble: I have already used the girl w/ cat combo. Deciding what I was going to draw for this turned into a real bitch. In the end, I decided to try something that people would expect (and probably, like) to see from me. The "Modern Art" approach was what made this subject work for me.
Thank you for the comment, AweSauwe!

Such a badass. . .

Really cool! This style is interesting, and the linework is well done. I think the pattern is the best part, quite creative! The outlining lines were a nice touch too, especially around the shotgun-arm. Only thing is I think it would look nice with a dark shadow on the ground too, since the contrast is high. Nicely done, Cubles!

J-qb responds:

Thanks, this was mostly a style practice, so im glad it worked.

Freaky and cool!

Ace work here, Jobertson! Really creative, and such well done shading and lighting. I really enjoy the green glow. The tongue's texture is fantastic! I agree with Kraig, the head doesn't match the rest, but again not your fault. Good stuff!

- Happy Friday Flood!

Jobertson responds:

thanks Saurus,
I have trouble adding texture to my work generally, so it's good to see working :P

3...2....1... blastoffff!

Nice, Gum!!

I like the perspective and the overall concept, great use of the icon. The shading is okay, but could be smoother, and the background leaves something to be desired. I'm also a bit confused on the light source with the sun being behind rocket-cat. I think the comedic value of it really helps the style. The bird is GREAT, really looks like it is in motion. Overall, well done!

And is that Pico firing that cannon!?

Havegum responds:

I rushed this way more than I should. Horribly much.
So much that when I realized the shading was all wrong on the cat rocket, I didn't even care enough to fix it up.

That being said though, I had loads of fun creating this little bastard!
Also the guy firing the cannon was supposed to be a dog or whatever, but I suppose pico works too!

Happy friday flood!

I like this!

Especially the name. Sounds like the day was pretty sweet, glad you made something to immortalize it!

ImaginaryAlbot responds:

Well thank you, Awesomesaurus! I appreciate it.

Alllllllrighttyyy Then!

Beautiful rendition, Nekow.

I've always been envious of your ability to use darks and contrast to really make your art "pop." Also, being one of the best characters of all time helps out quite a deal! I really like how you can see the papers lines through the red spot in the background, but not through Ace himself, its gives some good dimension to it. The shirt design is done very well, and it was definitely a good choice to put a warm color in the background that offsets the bright blues.

Give us more you talented painter, you.

Nekow responds:

Saurus you are awesome, thanks!

Critter Crashers!

So great! I love the saliva and the expression on Joe's face. You've really got aknack for this my friend, I am damn proud to be a part of this! As I've said before, I really dig your shading technique with this style, very smooth and clean, and the extra white outlines are a very nice touch as well. And the use of the negative space for SNO's branch was a clutch idea, definitely planned and thought out, the characters weren't just slopped in there via copy and paste with no structure, you found one that works well with the size and shapes of each one!

You stumped me with the background this time, looks like some sort of chocolate candies :p

sigh : : and when I tried to draw you for the guess that art forum reg, you ended up looking like Dale Gribble. I'm so sorry!

Keep at this, It's going to be a monument of the art forum upon its completion!

Daverom responds:

I'm not a fan of slopping things together.
The background is eggs this time.
And drawing me like Dale Gribble is by no means insulting. Quiote the opposite.

Even better!

These look great colored Vero, really liking the shading and color choices!

Only thing is, whats with the blueberries in the background!? Its a nice home-style portrait touch, but is there any specific reason why? Just curious, it doesn't by any means detract from the image and I thought it was pretty funny :p

Poor fishboy looks like he could use a hug!

Daverom responds:

No reason at all, had a blueberry muffin infront of me, so I used a blueberry texture.
and fishboy does in fact, need a hug

-I'm merely remarking on the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
