Haha I get it, he's calling to mind the acronym people use to express their appreciation for humor but isn't literally doing what that acronym stands for because the acronym itself has become a simulacrum.

When you can't get a date because your heart belongs to your best friend...

ChazDude responds:

Curse you, best friend!

[Paper Golem]

Nice choice with the subtle papery textures; they really help the material read better.

Also digging the out-of-frame effect you've got with the smaller background. Not sure I like the glow around the edges but I couldn't tell you why, and I'm having trouble imagining what it'd be like without.

The fire's brightness on the left side of the image helps give the eye a place to start, and the golem's pose helps to keep that flow going. The whole right side of the image gets left out though, because the golem's right arm (stage-left) leads the eye right back up to the starting point. Maybe the composition would flow a little better if you moved the whole golem a little farther towards the right side of the image, to make use of that extra space.

Whoa, great stuff! You really took that advice and ran with it. And I'm sure everyone's delighted to see another recruit for the Interstellar Space Skelly Army! I think that werewolf might be my favorite here too, you did a great job on the textures.

The bum on the right really opened up his heart to that girl, huh?

Wicked cool. Definitely catches the eye.

Totty responds:

thanks...I wish I hadn't started this on the down-slope of the day, my eyes were giving out and got kinda lazy, I might fix and reup at some point.

Yoooo congrats on the well-deserved FP! Took 'em long enough.

You seem to have a solid grasp of facial anatomy and lighting. The color choices are bold; the neons in this piece remind me of '80s-styled work. Some of your other pieces have too much saturation for my taste but I think this one has a better balance of neon to normal. I appreciate that you put enough thought into this one to develop a write up for it, but I'm gonna let this crit be solely about the visuals.

The one thing in this illustration that I don't like much is the edge of the beard. The lighter skin tone at the edge gives me the impression that the skin is overlapping the hair, which just looks weird.

2mgdaniel responds:

thank you very much for taking the time to view my work . You are right , my job often takes very lit neons, and this is one where I have been more careful in keeping the sidelines. I think, like you, with repect to the beard , was a matter of trying, bring it out . I appreciate the criticism, for me, are the best way to evolve

[Bear]

This is a terrible drawing of a snake.

Ydoj responds:

I know, I just can't get the scales right :/

Does this mean Bitey's not coming back?
