[BLAH-BOT RobotDay 2018]

Happy Robot Day!
This looks pretty good. I like the design and the colors are real nice. It's also quite detailed and I like the way the robot seems kinda put together from scrap. It's a very cool idea, and you've got a nice blur effect going on. Original and fun.

Potatoman responds:

Thank you man! <3

[Servicing]

It's so cool to see that you made something for Robot Day! There's a bunch of things happening, and I like it. I know this is part of, like, a universe that you made before this, but I'll still say this: I like the classic, menacing baddies and the robot's design which is basically a robot version of the soldiers. I also like that he's got a face on his stomach. I think maybe the robot could be a bit more brightly colored, simply because the bad guys are wearing pretty bright red, and the robot's just sorta blending into the shadows- I have nothing against dark colors on a robot, it just sorta makes him seem underwhelming.

ChazDude responds:

The 'baddies' are basically the main antagonists from Potatoman Regrown, a Dave & Carl sub-comic which is currently ongoing. I thought that using Iztovia in a Robot Day idea would be a good fit, so I went ahead and cooked this up!

I guess the shading is a tiny bit dark, but I was going for a more realistic feel with em'. Bleak but not bland as someone on Discord put it c:

[Chris Pratt Miniature Portrait]

Wow! I thought that was a photo in the thumbnail. It actually really looks like him, and you captured his charm very well. It's all so detailed. Good job on this, seriously!

Damrock responds:

Thank you! Really appreciate the comment trickster.

A very fun and interesting monster. A bit simpler than some, but still pretty cool. There's a lot of detail and I like the design. It's gross, hairy and weird, but not creepy. It's sorta charming. So, I guess this is supposed to represent you? I mean, it actually kinda feels that way (I'm not trying to say you're a weird monster). It does feel like a monster artist. Good job overall, I really like the atmosphere and design.

Stopsignal responds:

hey, thanks for the nice comments!
i really like your interpretation. could be! after all, it does have the drawing tablet. it's weird, let's just leave it at that, hehe
thanks again! have a good day!

[Flowery Eyes]

Another cool piece from you. I really like the way the face looks, and it works quite well with the eyes. The eyes themselves are pretty in this one, too, and it's cool that they're mirror images of each other. The petals under the eyes are nice too. In this one, though, the hair seems to be two different colors, which seems a bit weird. Unless the brown parts around the face aren't actually hair, which I'm pretty sure they are. The animation in this one looks a lot nicer in this one, too, because it's not really a movement and feels more like a friendly blowing in the wind type thing.

Caaath responds:

Thank you again for your comment! I'm very happy, really, it helps me a lot!

[Croc]

The colors here are great and give this a trippy charm but also your signature style. It's very intricate and looks very pleasing. The layout is also nice with how organic everything feels. I haven't played the game so I can't testify to the accuracy of this, but even so, it's very good and feels very imaginative, even though it's based on an existing game.

ChutneyGlaze responds:

Thanks TheGamingTrickster! ITs not the best game but it has inspired everything i do. It is my number one inspiration!

[-YOU WILL BE LOVED-]

That's a very,cool and interesting character design and I like the artstyle. The face is very expressive and it's easy to tell what kind of character this is. However, that big thing at the end of the (viewer's) left arm looks weird and it's not really clear what it is. Also, why the arrow? Is it a paintbrush? Hair? You should probably make this a bit clearer.

CryoGX responds:

Thanks for the response dude! Sorry; that was a pretty unfortunate overlap on my part. I updated the silhouette to have her hair and hand separate.

There's a ton of little stuff I wanted to update too but I'll take the L on those things for now lol.

Btw that was Ishta's hair; it ends in a bright point to look like a lit fuse

[Crying Soul]

The style seems very surreal, and I like it. I'm not a big fan of the animation though, and I think you could remove it. It isn't very fluid, and it's not even a very big tear. I like this idea that the character has clouds and an ocean in their eyes. It's just really cool imagery. I also like the colors in this.

Caaath responds:

Thank you very much for review! It's always good to hear comments that help us improve more and more! True, the animation isn't fluid... I believe it's because I worked with it in Ps, which isn't a specific program for animation (working with GIFs in Photoshop is a bit tricky ;c). I'm glad you liked the colors and the idea of the illustration! I have a non-animated version of this piece and I want to made some prints a.s.a.p..

[Skeleton war]

The style is fitting and I like the idea. It's rough and dark, but also looks kinda fun and not too edgy or serious. The guy with the dislodged jaw looks really cool, both because of the horns and said jaw. I also really like the look of the sword and the way he's holding it.

Uizzo responds:

Damn, what a nice review. Thank you!!! Glad you liked it :D

[Foreign]

The lighting conveys a sense of beauty and the piece looks very nice. The design of the character is cool, though not that original. I like the little particles floating in the air. The drops of water on the android's body are nice. It's cool how you can sorta see a reflection in the water if you look closely. So, my best guess as to what the story is that it's an android from a different world. The title is "Foreign" and the android is looking up, like they fell or crashed or something. There also seem to be pieces of debris scattered around the place. My one complaint is that the cog floating in the water stands out too much.

Marckel responds:

Thanks for the feedback! Honestly, originality is hard (so is detail) but perhaps I'm being lazy. I'm glad the story reads through clearly though, that's a success!
