Fantastic work, really love the style and attention to detail. But I have a hard time posting without offering my idea of a crit, so here you go. The people in the foreground of the second picture l ... |

The rain around the left side and bottom is really distracting, looks like you tried a motion blur that did not cover the entire piece. Plus it seems a bit too constant thoughout, which is a bit unre ... |

Personally I prefered it when you had the 3 ships in the scene, it broke up the single diagonal line that everything seems to be following and added a bit more interest to the piece, a bit more flow. |

The biggest thing I can see right now is that you should spend a little time cleaning up what you have already. If you are going for realism i suggest taking some of the blur out and tidying up the s ... |

Right now there are a few things that are kind of bugging me. Mainly the entrails themselves, it looks a little funky that there are only two sizes, I would prefer to see a greater variation of radiu ... |

Right now most of my suggestions can only be pretty generic, as it appears you are still in some of the basic stages of blocking your painting out. I would suggest commiting to something with the bac ... |

Actually I caught that, I guess it is a little difficult to put the proper emphasis on the word to explain what I mean. Let me try again: What do you mean "Pretty Good" For a 13 year old. Hence mea ... |

What do you mean "Pretty good for a 13 year old"? Considering the style choosen and comment toward the character I think it was very well executed. I really dig the line and stroke quality, and the ... |

Nice work, i really like your stroke, it seems like you have a lot of movement there. Your portraits seem to capture the moment and feeling well and your shading does a good job showing depth and for ... |

Before you get too far along coloring this picture, I would suggest reworking the figure that looks like he is collapsed in her left arm. His back is very stiff, and he does not appear to be lifeless ... |

First of all I am pretty new to painter 8, and this is a painting I did off a photograph I found somewhere on the web. Unfortuantely I don't know where I got it, so I cannot pay my respects to the ph ... |

The shading is fabulous, especially the linens. The only thing that looks off to me is the nose, it looks a little funky. And the hair apears a little flat because the value range is constant from t ... |
