This is pretty awesome stuff. This piece is good, but it's not as good as your other piece The Becoming (Part 1). Although this one has more characters, there is one thing about it that throws my eye off and that's the knife the boy on the right is holding. Although it looks like he's holding the knife, it also looks like he's holding the ghost's tail. Maybe this is done on purpose, but it just seems a bit odd. As for the the piece as a whole it's wonderful. The colors are brilliant and blend extremely well together and I like how you keep choosing to go with the clown make up. It's a nice touch! My favorite part about this piece is the girl's heart on top of her head. I get the message that she's thinking with her heart instead of her mind, which can only lead to disaster. As for the net around her her head I'm unsure of it. Though it adds to the fact that this lady has been "captured" I feel like it kind of takes away from this kick ass piece. Just above that however on the head board of the bed, the (decoration?) is fucking awesome. I can't tell if they're lights wrapped around the head board, but either way they look really well done and offer insight to your ability with water color. Last, but not least the feet and the boy's ghost/monster (seeping out of a gash on his forehead?) This part is awesome. I very much like the eyes on the monster just as much as I enjoy the feet on the female. Feet are tricky to draw, but it looks like you got the toes down really well! Although I question the big toe on the lighter (pink) foot. It doesn't look quite big enough! And one final note, those eyes in the shadow monster look great (once again) because it has two pupils meaning that there is more to this monster than what meet the viewers eye. This is a very well done piece and I love the style you've taken on. Keep doing what you're doing because it's fucking awesome.

Thank you, I enjoy your interpretation. And thanks for the critic as well! And how you call my work awesome! Thanks!
(I thought the lights wrapped around the head board of the bed looked pretty crappy, but I'm glad you like them.)
The knife and the boys hand holding the tail of the ghost/monster is done on purpose.
The knife represents how he protects himself emotionally and from letting anyone get too close. It has also been used to cut open his head to let out these disconnected parts of himself (the monster) so that they can handle the (emotional) situations he doesn't want to have anything to do with. On the same time he's trying to hold these parts back because they also tend to drag him into these situations. Like with the girl. She wants him, he doesnt want her, but he lets out these other parts of himself for her every once in a while. Maybe just to shut her up. I dont really know why. He did stop after a while though.
And the girl is all wrapped up in her own head and feelings and doesnt even really mind the monster tugging at her feet or how bizarre the whole situation is. She is not even turned towards the boy. All she ever sees is her own heart.

Great! I like your flow in this drawing. My favorite parts of this drawing are his goggles and the fetus itself. They both add a lot of character and questions to this piece. For example, why the fuck is he wearing those Goggles? LOL I think it's awesome. I also like how the man (lady?) is pulling at its collar to get some air as it's exasperated by the fetus. Great touch! Speaking of the fetus, I very much like its facial expression. It looks shocked as it's ejected into the air. The teeth aren't bad. They appear to have some depth, but at the same time they are so simple. It's very interesting. As for the clothing itself, it's alright. There seem to be a lot of wrinkles within the sleeves of his (her?) shirt. It's not necessarily a bad thing, but it just seems a bit unnecessary. Overall, this is a pretty good piece and brought a smile to my face, especially because of those goggles, haha!

SubtractiveWizard responds:

Wow! Than you very much Rambs! I'm glad you enjoyed this picture. Also it's a guy and i drew this a super long time ago when i didn't know what to do with clothing and didn't know how to do wrinkles so i just put lines everywhere hahah.

Badass! For a grunt he's packing some serious heat. Again, this picture is really simple, but it's nice. As for the color scheme, it's not bad. Why yellow though? Yellow seems very neutral and cautious. I suppose that's what a grunt is, but aren't they supposed to be the enemy? Regardless, it's a good picture. Have you thought about possibly trying to experiment with colors though? Maybe you could change the colors of the characters and weapons. For example, if the gun was a dark gray and then the character black put onto some kind of colored background. It's just a possibility. I like these pictures though and am curious as to what's next! Especially with a grunt having that kind of firepower.

Dchuyv responds:

Thanks for the advice but for my art i use two colors white lines for the characters and random color for the background anyway thanks for the review!!! :)

It's not bad. I like it, however it seems like there really isn't much to this picture. Just a few lines and it's done. The color scheme of pink and white works very well. The Madness cartoons are awesome and it's always interesting to see what fans come up with. I like the party hat this guy's wearing and that ghetto radio he's rocking out to. One thing my eye notices though is that it seems like the head is a bit big for the body? But perhaps this is because he's leaning forward? There's not much more to be said about this picture because of it's simplicity, but that's not a bad thing. Either way it's a nice little picture adding to the fandom of Madness. Good job!

Dchuyv responds:

Thank you very much! :)

Sweet! This is a pretty unique picture. To start off with, I'm a fan of all the animals used in this picture, and what I really like about this is that it forms its own monster in the end. I only imagine if this monster inherited those animals traits? Foul beast. What also draws me to this piece is the color scheme. All of those colors are very basic and flow really well together. I also like how the crocodile (Alligator?) is all green. Although I wonder what it would look like the white teeth? Though that could take away from the aspect of the giant face. Now onto the teeth, those are some grizzly teeth. Are those the teeth of an animal? Are they shopped? Or are they the parts of other animals? :O The world may never know, but the teeth are a great add to the picture in my opinion because of the great white's you have forming eyes. I feel like the mouth being slightly opened would have made this beast look more fierce. It would resemble the great whites Now the eyes look bugged out, but is this because it's a fish with antlers (falcons) ? I feel like I have seen a fish with antler's somewhere in a Behemoth game trailer, and if you recreated that in this form, holy shit it's awesome. Either way I love this picture and think you did a great job with this piece! Bravo

Install-a-Friend responds:

Haha, thanks for your review!

What I was going for was its own creature, made from all other creatures - nature itself. Using that, I made the image symmetrical with itself, but not perfectly, as evident in the teeth, to symbolise beauty. I wasn't going for any particular animal form.

Anyway, this artwork was mainly designed partially as cover art for my music, which you can see here: http://w33zl.bandcamp.com/

Thank you for your kind words.

HOLY SHIT! This is awesome! The exposed half of his face is sinister, and brutally awesome. The second half of this man's face is equally entertaining. Although it doesn't have a lot going on with it, it's still eye catching, perhaps because of the hair? Yep. The hair looks great and the shines in it really give it an extra punch. The yes are awesome looking, however I have an issue with the normal half of his face. I can't tell if his eye is closed or not? I feel like it's not closed, so it's still a really badass picture. Good stuff!

helghyst responds:

its open, i used a grey scale to show a curve to his eye and left the center open and stark white but it did't show up to well in the scan.

Sweet! This picture reminds me a lot of the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland, but it's a Tiger. SO it's a badass motherfucker. I really like that it is a Siberian Tiger, and those eyes, the color is great! It's a nice shade of blue. I wonder what medium this possibly is? It looks a lot like charcoal, or chalk? I'm unsure and am curious. On a side note did you know that they found an extremely rare black tiger today? It's cool as fuck. I like tigers almost as much as dinosaurs. Back on subject though, this piece is great and I like the few colors used! It's awesome!

Never2MuchPiE responds:

I like your energy, This piece is a 3X4 (or something close, I cant remember) traditional piece done in acrylic on canvas. I'm so stoked you like it! Maybe next I'll do a Kickass Dinosaur :D !!!!

Hmmm, this one is interesting. I like the idea of this creature. It seems almost like a tentacle monster from a digital world trying to become a reality in the regular world. One thing that really strikes me about this piece is the name. "Tzlekshi-Chizmer Liomegdo Shlu", that is a mouthful. I tried to Google the name and find deeper meaning, but I've got nothing. Did you come up with the name? If so that's one hell of a name!

Something that I would consider changing in this picture is the mouth. Maybe make it a bit darker and have it come layering over his festive clothing? I feel like that would add to the piece and give it a more realistic look. In the end, this is an interesting piece that I find amusement in! Now is Tzlekshi-Chizmer Liomegdo Shlu a creature to be trusted, and one a final note... HOW THE FUCK DO YOU SAY HIS NAME!?

Conquestus responds:

Thanks for your review, very interesting interpretation. Yeah I came up with that name, I tried to think about a "exotic" name, something different to what we could imagine (and speak) and apart of the mainstream alien naming. So that's the result. . . And I don't know either how to say it xD

Thanks for your tipps, I for myself didn't really liked the mouth either, but It's based on a real chaotic and surreal sketch I made before and don't really tried to make it realistic. I just liked to bring that sketch into some kind of digital colored form and it came out that way. But maybe I will rework it later, since I see now that i'm not the only one who would change it.

This is great! I really like small crafts like this. Seeing as you made this out of paper I think it's really cool that you can make small figurines out of it. The solid black works, well, because it's symbiote Spider-Man! With that said, I also like how you took note of adding the white to the back of his palms. That was a great touch. Something that didn't come out so nice was his left eye. It looks like it is partially closing on the lower eye-lid. Overall this is a solid piece of work and I really like it!

-On a side note, the storm trooper looks great too!

bigjonny13 responds:

Yeah man, it's the little things that make it what it is.
A bit unfortunate about the eye, but oh well.
Glad you like them both.

Wow! This one is much better than your last submission! I like the fact that the colors are inverted. It's not necessarily something that you see something everyday. I think what makes this piece work as a whole is the statue of the angels. The cloth hanging from it looks well done. The next thing that catches my eye in this piece is the background. I like the details in the background. It gives me the sense of an old world, perhaps in the renaissance? Another thing that this picture reminds me of is the old Devil May Cry games on the Playstation 2, which makes this piece kind of nostalgic for me.

Things that you could improve on are straightening your lines in the background, and giving your character in the left hand corner some more depth. It is hard to make this character out at first because it seems as though he the same height as the clock tower he is near. Overall this piece is a big improvement from the last drawing and you can tell that you put thought into this piece. 4/5, no doubt!

MaartenC responds:

Always great to hear such a praise, thank you very much!

The cloth and the wings were a bitch to do, but I believe they worked out the way I wanted them to.
The series are in the (late?) Medieval eras, so that's why the houses are so idyllic, I really like them too, though I could have given them a bit more attention, yes.

Thank you again for the review, much appreciated!

All the way alive
