So here's just some things I did this week in my spare time. None of these were taken too seriously, but I thought I'd post it anyway. All comments are appreciated!

Well, it turns out I had more pics than I thought, so I'm posting this in 2 parts to make it easier on reviewers :)

Nice, i will review each one by one! I feel a little lazy so they might not be to great.

1. Love the coloring and the general expression. The coloring on he top is quite amazing, very different gives it a watercolor look. Of course the bottom but isn't finished so i will not linger on that. Proportion wise her head is to big for her body, but this is Amine so that a good thing. I like her eyes but her hair is a little flat.

2.Different, i like it. good to see you branching out.

3. Nice attempt on a realist eye. Better that most stuff I see out there. I suggest you work on drawing eyes, i know there are a lot of internet tutorial out there but generally just look at pictures of eyes, note the different parts how they are formed and how they relate in size to each other. In your picture the eye seem a little bit to closed, the lashes unnatural, and the curve wrong. You where also missing the curve of the tear ducts, the eye muscle thing and the water line. The colored tears are very good though.

4. Nice, i like the use of colors. The only thing i can say is the dude's body doesn't look right, should be a bit longer.

Anyway, nice work!

Nice. I like the second and the last picture the most.
The second one is raw, and you didn't use too much colors and lines.
That makes it more interesting.
The last one is good, just like the rest, but I really love the way you draw the faces of people facing another way.
A close up of a staring face. Wonderful.
Well done, and keep up the good work! *thumbs up*

Hey there. You have some talent!

Alright, so I'll give quick reviews for each!

1. Love the angle and the look in her eyes. The colour is also something I much enjoy about this piece. A few small details you might want to look at is, that because the proportions are distorted (as her head is huge, of which I'm sure you did on purpose) you should make sure the other proportions fit but don't look wonky. For example, the hips are a little to rounded. For a skinnier girl, it would appear that they give the affect of sloppiness xP. Also, her neck is much too large. Yes it will make he look like a bobble-head a bit, but at least it doesn't make her look like she has a huge neck on small shoulders, kapeesh?

So my overall on that one is a thumbs up! Just a few things to work out.

2. This one by far is my favourite! I love the color and the lack of detail. Its very artistic and would look absolutely lovely on canvas if you ever got around to it. Things I would change, though, would probably be her body. You can tell by the arms that the bust-line is a little too large making her almost gorilla-looking. If you add a little more to the arms, her body should slim down and give the appearance of a small girl, as is what I think you were trying to do with this piece. That, and I would give her more of a jawline. Try giving her a rounded, oval jawline so-as to give the impression of childishness.

Overall: My favourite and very interestingly coloured!

3. I like this one a lot too! I think my favourite part about it was the color and the way that the droplets are all very different from one another. That and the shading is impeccable. What I would fix here is maybe make the top eyelashes longer and cut down on the bottom ones. It will give the eye an appearance of something a little less beastly? That and give more definition to the teardrops. Compared to the eye, they have not enough line nor curvature. Give a lighter and darker.

Overall: I like the idea and the composition of this so thumbs up!

4. In all honesty, this was my least favourite. Though I love the colour and the way it was shaded, the necks are much too large and the clothing on the left hand one wasn't properly positioned on the body. You need to think how clothing fits humans, like the way it drapes and dangles. In this case, it looks like its floating off the body and jetting in random positons. Because of that, it looks childish.

Overall: though not my favourite, still well done and interestingly thought out. You have talent. Just refine it!

Other than that, tata!

Overall, I love these, especially the colors. So, I will try to review them one by one, although I'm just a beginner, so I don't know if I'll be able to help at all.

1st pic: I like the expression a lot, it really gives the girl a lot of character. The coloring is phenomenal. What do you use? Anyways, I think this is personal opinion, but the thinness of her stomach bothers me. I think it would look more proportional if it was a tiny bit wider.

2nd: I love how this is very abstract, and I especially like how you can see the brushstrokes. I think the colors go very well together, and overall the concept is amazing. I like how her dress disappears into the background.

3rd: I do not know much about realistic features, so I don't think I can help with this one. It is very beautiful, though.

4th: On this one, my favorite parts are the vibrant colors, the expressions and the eyes. I think my favorite is the one in the upper right corner. The combination of the violet eyes and the golden hair makes for a very striking appearance.

Okay, so I loved all these. I'm sorry if my review really wasn't that helpful - I've really been trying hard to improve. But thanks for taking the time to read this anyway!
