Cute, I'm really liking your style. More good work with lighting and pose in this one, and the background contrasts the clean lines nicely. However, the gun seems a little short (whatever) and flat (which is a problem).

I don't know if you just got lazy with/rushed the gun, but it seems to have less depth than the rest of the picture. The shine on it from the butterfly is an awesome little touch, but other than that, it's just lacking little stuff that would make it pop. If you are looking to improve your depth, I'd look at "Dancing notes", your work with the notes in that one is definitely on the right track. There is, however, some decent work with depth on this piece, especially on her left arm.

Conclusively, it's a nice little piece for what it is. I'd also like to note that there's certainly more good to it than bad, but I'm not too skilled at critiquing the good.

Thanks man. Admittedly I didn't notice the gun size until afterward, but I feel if it was bigger it could be distracting.
I did rush this out as I haven't had time to finish a picture as I work on my next animation.

Again thanks for the feedback dude.

Really cool piece, I want to say proportions look a little off for this art style, but then again she could just have healthy birthing hips. One thing I want to mention is your phenomenal work with the light source, with the shine on the goggles/water wings and shadows.

I really hope you keep it up, I think you have potential!

Mckodem responds:

Thank you. This picture basically mixed up my style of drawing cutesy girls, with a more adult proportion and they sort of collided to make this picture.

Great Ending

I've been following the entire story of the Blood Charm over at your deviantART, and I think this was an excellent way to end the series.

Anyways, for the art itself, I can't find much fault with it. The shading is perfect, the light comes from one definite source, you obviously put ever so much attention into the little details such as the little cracks and whatnot in Anne's armour, and in the end, it really payed off.

You are probably the greatest artist on Newgrounds, and I hope to see more from you. Thank you for creating this wonderful little miniseries!

AlvinHew responds:

Thank you, that is really high praise.

Amazing!

The detail of the man standing on the cliff is great, and really contributes to the rest of the picture, and it adds an air of mystery to the whole thing. I like the way the lines are drawn, and the way the cliff itself is shaded.

The only thing I can really think about that isn't quite right is the dinasaur seems so out of place, but I suppose you had to include it, so I didn't dock anything for that.

All in all, a great piece of work!

yes indeed , the dinosaurs ha to be included, and i really wanted to put the character in there too. even though they aren't form the same time period

I'm glad you like it and thank you for the paragraph review
