“Hiya! Sorry for the wait, this is such a cool piece!! I think your line quality is already very strong, the only tweaks I made were warp the wheels so they are slightly rounder at the corners of the e...”

“Hiya! Sorry for the wait c: For the figure, I think the centre line of their face is probably pushed a bit more further towards the creature and I also shortened the head as it felt a little bit too e...”

“Hiya, sorry for the wait!! I truly love this piece, my main comment would be about making the lighting a bit more consistent within the figures and the piece as a whole. Keep reminding yourself of whe...”

“Hi there! Sorry for the delay!! As you say you are a complete beginner, I wouldn't worry about FOV and things just yet, take it one step at a time! TThat being said, I am very happy to see you do exer...”

“Hiya, sorry for the delay! I think you're doing a really cool job with the lines so I wouldn't change anything about those. The figure underneath would be very difficult to draw, so I think it would h...”

“Hiya, sorry for the wait! I love the 80's comic book vibe of your portrait! I just gave it a more similar colour palette, changed some minot facial feature proportions and added very rough lighting cu...”

“Hiya, sorry for the wait! First off, I think you have done such a great job already, there is SO much character in these sketches!! I love the portrait thumbnails at the bottom, and you said people mi...”

“Hiya, sorry for the wait! I think this is a really cool sketch just the way it was! The only things I added are lines to seperate the figures from each other a little more, as I wasn't too sure someti...”

“Hiya! Sorry for the delay! Drawing a figure in a 3D space is incredibly difficult to do, so what we tend to do first is draw in an more simple mannequin. This will be easier to draw than thinking abou...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I think it's best we take it step by step, so let's start with the pose! c: Hands are the trickiest thing to draw, but since they are so close to the camera, I want to m...”

“Hiya, sorry for the wait! I think with anime (and especially Gohan) you can draw everything a little bit more angular and sharp, especially in the face. Maybe also try to make the muscles flow and ove...”

“Hiya, sorry for the wait! Here's the thing, I would maybe go into talking about facial feature proportions, but actually I think your style has so much character that the slight exagurrations work rea...”

“Hi there, sorry for the wait! This is such a cool piece, is it an original story? I would move the character to be a bit more central in the composition, and I wouldn't worry too much about the deta...”

“Could you try uploading again? I would love to take a look! c:”

“Hi there! This is incredibly well done, congratulations!! The onl thing I would point out to help you is that the form indications in this area were bending changing direction along that curve, but si...”

“Hi there, sorry it's taken us a while! I actually think this is brilliant, I love the way you have drawn the facial features in this piece and think the piece as a whole is really cool as is. However,...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I believe you would benefit a lot from learning 3D form and head construction. Even if you want to work in a more cartoon style like Kim Jung Gi, he was able to do so b...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I actually think you were on track for making a really nice watercolour here! I think the next step for you would be to add more lighting to the scene. However, with wat...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! If you struggle with everything like you said, it's best to just start at the beginning and take it step by step. try to familiarise yourself with volume and perspective...”

“Hi, sorry for the delay! I think this work is already pretty solid execution-wise, so I definitely don't have any hard points to critique here. Things I would improve are making sure parts feel like t...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I think style-wise you stay pretty consistent within the character, you just need to apply the same highlight/rim light technique you were doing in the figure (white pol...”

“Hi there! Sorry for the delay! I am obsessed with the way you painted those clouds, just want to put that out there first, they are brilliant. About the material: I think it would be best to try and b...”

“Ah! Another brilliant portrait! Of course, I don't have the reference image of what this person looks like, so don't take any likeness cues from me, but for this one I would mainly advise to build up ...”

“Hello, sorry for the delay!! This is such a lovely portrait, I think your overall technique is pretty great and you succeed in showing the different forms of the face, the only thing i have changed i...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I love the shape you drew for the eyes and how expressive this is!! I think you could improve the shading by following the round form of the hair and face more like I di...”

“Hi there! Sorry for the delay, I think this is actually a great study page and it seems like you are starting to have a good grasp of drawing these boxes in perspective! There's a few that distort a l...”

“Hi there! Sorry for the delay c: First, I would try and create a cleare path for the "z"'s to follow like I do there in (1), and secondly (2) if you want to push your style, try experiment with the sh...”

“Hi there! Sorry for the delay, I think you should feel pretty confident about this one, they look really well done!”

“Hi there! There is no such thing as asking for too much feedback on here c: Sorry for the delay! I think the colours on the shadowside are a little bit muddy/greyed out still, so I wanted to light up ...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay!! I think this is such a cool image, the only thing I would point out is the angle of the face (you probably picked themost difficult one there is :D) Drawing a face from...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! Realistic tiger fur is probably one of the most difficult textures to draw, so I tried figuring this one out. If you worl traditionally, I would recommend shading the vo...”

“Hello, sorry for the delay! I think the way you hatched is so clean, and that tree foliage is really well done! I changed the perspective a little bit so it is less extreme (you made it really hard fo...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I think you're already very good at expressions to be honest, the character seems consistent throughout! The main thing I changed was lowering the eyes on the head a lit...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I softened the folds in the clothing a little bit as I thought they were perhaps a tad too dark and I added a bit more cohesion in value per layer to help seperate them ...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I love everything about this piece so far, and I think you're actually creating a really cool background there, you just need to detail it further. I always make a whole...”

“Hi there, sorry for the delay! I can't see the image straight away but if you'd reupload we'll take another look at it c:”

“Hi there! Sorry for the delay c: For hyperrealistic artwork, there's a lot of steps involved, learning lighting, 3D form, anatomy,... so let's take it step by step! The first one I think you would ben...”

“Shading is tough! I think it's important to have a clear light source in mind first and then apply it consistently over the volumes of the subject. In this case I put the light source behind/above it,...”

“Faces and hands are definitely the most difficult things to draw, so I think using the Loomis method to give you a bit of structure/proportions before you start would be really good. For the hands, I ...”

“Hi there! I changed the position of the eye a bit so it now curves more naturally over the plane of the face (using loomis) and gave the teeth a bit more space iside of the mouth. Other than that I so...”

“Hi there! I have first just added in lights and darks before going into colour, because in a traditional drawing adding colour will be a lmittle bit difficult at this point as the graphite might make ...”

“Reading the description, I think this character could use more vibrant colours! Design-wise I would think about maybe including some kind of pattern or shape in the clothing that would also refer to c...”

“Love seeing these traditional pieces!! I think the silhouet you designed is just amazing, so I would go in and make it a little bit darker so it has a clearer read and stands out more! (I would do it ...”

“These are some really great studies! I actually think the torso/pelvis usually looks pretty good but it's rather the foreshortening in the legs. if the legs are pointed towards us, the flat plane of t...”

“Hi there! Great job at making it this far in the road! I think your form indication is actually rather good, but I would try and make your elipses/circles less of an almond shape. So try practising th...”

“Hi! Didn't see there was an update on this piece! I think you are pretty spot on in most places, but don't forget that with this lighting setup, the can will cast more broad castshadow onto the hand, ...”

“I think you're on the right track and also ready to start adding a bit more of the shape of the knuckles instead of only the contour lines inbetween them! Speaking of which, try and keep up the wrappi...”

“Hi there! Seems like you are definitely starting to get a hang of it! I would try to tweak some of the lines going off to the vanishing points, following the perspective of the box you have provided y...”

“Hi, this spread is looking really fun!! I think the thumb indeed needed to be foreshortened a bit more and also been given more of a graphic shape to match the other fingers. Secondly I think I'd make...”

“Hi there! The way I think about it is like this: the light comes in at an angle, so I try to think of those lines coming in and brushing past some recognisable points of the object and seeing where th...”

“Hi there! I think you have the likeness down, but the drawing feels a little stretched, so I fixed that a little bit. Also, I think it would look better if the clothes followed the form of the body mo...”

“Hi there! I think you are asking very good and important questions here! 1) This is personal preference, but while I paint, I tend to use a seperate clipping mask for every material in the scene. Tha...”

“Hi there, love what's going on here! I think I recognise a lot of my own struggles when I first started painting after also working mainly traditionally for a long time, the main thing I think would ...”

“Hi! I love this character so much! I think your proportions were actually pretty good already, I just added a bit more form to the arms and lowered the right armpit. I moved the facial features a litt...”

“Looks promising!”

“Hello! This is such a difficult angle you chose, definitely made it very hard on yourself :D Since the bottom of the image was kind of dark, I did a very quick paintover, I hope I still stayed true to...”

“Hi there! There is so much going on in this scene, it's almost like a Kim Jung Gi type setting! I think practising the form is indeed really crucial, maybe try to draw your scene like this with the si...”

“This is such a cool piece!! I think your rendering is already pretty solid, lighting-wise I just looked at the lighting situation of the face (> lit slightly from above) so I brought out those light t...”

“Hiya! I think the main reason the body looked a little bit off is because it was very long, so I shortened the torso a little bit, gave a bit more space for that back arm to exist and then gave the ha...”

“Hi! This is shaping up to be a really cool self portrait! I think the right side of the face needs to be brought up ever so slightly (blue) and try to draw that second eye a little bit more as though ...”

“BES is such a great show!! Love your rendition of this too, I only had some minor tweaks here and there for the lighting and form so it reads a little bit better and I changed the hue/saturation of th...”

“Hi! Having a lot of questions is a good sign, but yes let's take it step by step! c: I think if you struggle with creating dynamic shapes , movement & bodies in perspective, start small. The drawover ...”

“Hiya! I think the celshading was pretty good but it still lacked some depth perhaps, so I went in and made the value of the shadows slightly darker. I also added some more on the sleeves/shoulders/tai...”

“Hi!I think the hands in the background are really well done! I think I would simplify the shading in some of the places a little bit. I made shadow on the legs+abdomen a little bit more so it wraps ar...”

“Hi! I actually think you pretty much nailed it, I checked the head, but you're very close. I made the hairline/brow ridge/eyes follow the curve a little more and drew the ear slightly more from above ...”

“This is such an interesting take on Mermay! Despite being quite intimidating, they seem like a gentle giant c: At first I didn't really spot the the diver, but since we're just below the surface, I br...”

“I am actually pretty obsessed with this painting as it is! There's a really clear atmosphere, but maybe I am not entirely sure yet of what it is exactly I am seeing (for example the anatomy of the cre...”

“Hi, this is such a cool character! Is it an OC or is it from an existing IP? With shading and lighting the key is to choose a lightsource and then apply it consistently to create a believable image. S...”

“Hi! Folds are pretty complicated, but if you're going for a more stiff/starchy material, that's actually great news as you would have *less* folds. I quickly simplified a few here and also kept the vo...”

“Hi! I like the abstract shapes you added around the eyes, but I think your drawing would improve if you added a bit more flow to the features! So instead of having everything drawn almost horizontally...”

“I love the concept of the hidden monsters!! For lighting, I simply added a source first, so we know how to build up the rest (it is a bit of an intense rough paintover, the beams could definitely be a...”

“Hi! I softened the contrast a little bit as I think it was a bit too stark. Since there is a direct lightsource on the bright sand, I also felt like this landscape was the perfect setup for some sligh...”

“I actually think most of these features are really well drawn, especially since this is a difficult angle as well. I think you follow the curve/volume of the face very well in the mouth and nose, but ...”

“I only have really minor adjustments here as I think this sheet is already really well done, it's definitely a character with a lot of personality :D I changed a few face shapes where I feel like the ...”

“Hi, I would first focus on the light/shadow shapes! The easiest way to check this is to be aware of the 3D forms of the face and body (I drew some of them in blue). Secondly, when you have a good idea...”

“Hi! I think the way you did the light scatter actually fits your style quite well, but generally I would make it a little bit less saturated in colour, we often need much less than we think! Secon...”

“Hi! Is this a poster for some kind of movie or event? I think it's a very cool start, but eyes (especially up close) have a lot of volume changes and I think it still looked a little bit flat before. ...”

“Hi, first of all this is such a fun painting, and I think handling contrasts with traditional mediums like watercolours are really hard to balance. The trick is to build up the dark tones very gradual...”

“Hi, at first glance this seems great to me! Whenever I work traditionally, I like to go back in with coloured perncils to redefine some edges and that works really well for me (like I did on the feet,...”

“Hi! Such a great character, the facial features all look fine to me! I agree the neck was a little bit too tilted, so I drew it in the same angle going towards the head, not away from it, and adjusted...”

“Hi, I'm the creator of this grindnode! I think you've done a stellar job at this exercise, even spotting some really tricky ones. If I had to nitpick, I would argue the line on the face of the figure ...”

“I actually find this a really great study, there's a few proportions I would change, like the arm for example, but other than that this is a job well done as the figure reads quite clearly!”
