Hehe. I knew if I simply waited a few weeks you come out with more wonderful works. Your skills are simply astounding, Shoi. I must critique all three as a sense of artistic respect. <3
Candy Striper Sketch: You handle female anatomy with more charm than I, that is assured. I simply adore how you presented her with such sensuality, but in the form of a challenge, as though she's awaiting someone worthy of her perfect body. I dare say I avoid this trigger-happy vixen if I was to come across her in the clubs. (But I probably be further amazed that I went into a club, being the person I am. :B) Her outline is clean and yet holds that wonderful sketchy form that I adore from your concept drawings. The attire is very charismatic and utterly voluptuous, perfectly suited to the job she holds. I can only cite that the only abnormality is probably how lengthy her nose is, but this is merely a nitpick. It, though, bugs me that the bottom of her boot is sliced off by that one corner of the picture. Ouch... O~o
Barbarian Sketch: Hah! The bloody pixie is a goner! >D Seriously, though, I'm utterly enjoying the clever, victorious expression on the barbarian's face. Not only that, but the pure handsomeness that's shaped about his head. You obviously took into detail the various structures of his face and alike, and for that I commend you. His arms and chest appear be alined correctly, so I have nothing to complain over. The stitched patterns and furry textures on his pauldrons are excellently drawn and compiled together. Your style truly shows whenever I look at this and you should be proud for that. It's good to have a trademark amongst the numerous styles that sometimes look identical to one another. Though, I definitely agree on improving the legs. The detail seens to weaken as you go down his body, and I simply hate to see all your hard work dwindle down the piece. It's a wonderful piece, Shoi, and with a little improvement on that and perhaps some additional detail to himself, I believe you'll have me bowing before your awesome artistic skills. Bravo!
Coos' B-Day Sketch: Hahaha. It's surely a gift I expect Coos to enjoy. The whole nearly-bare Lolita and her adorableness is surely a fatal weakness in the loveable oaf. Well, aside my petty mockery, I can't full critique this. After all, you just said it's unfinished. I will say this most though: you have a keen sense to drawing clean lines and I happily envy that about you. I can completely enjoy this piece as much as Coos could, all because of the imagitive character design and the skillful transfer of styles from his to yours. You do this character true justice.
Well, before you hug me into submission, just let me tell you that I typically comment like this, but I also have the tendency to comment in short sentences as well. Just to forwarn you. Okay, that's all from me. I await further splendid works from you, Shoi. And do keep on drawing how you are. I simply enjoy to see artists excel in the already grand skills they possess.
. A few people from Magic: The Gathering got there start there drawing cards sooo, thought I might try to stick my foot in the door there.
