The night...

Okay. This drawing hasn't been edited and I've used color pencils here (only).
So here the boy is heart-broken and wants to hurt himself with the knife but the little girl is stopping him.



I'm not sure if it looks good... I'm definitely going to need reviews...

I love this - especially the girl (she looks so cute). The way that this has been positioned e.g. the girl being much smaller than the guy portrays her as being defenceless compared to him.

The back ground could use a bit of work because it is very plain, though I do like the moon, branch and bird.

Hi there!

I think it looks good! The girl pulling the guy positions is drawn well. Although, I thought that the guy's nose is a bit too long, maybe you should curve it down a bit. I don't know if it's supposed to be like that, but that's what I thought. I like the coloring! You've shown good coloring skills, and it doesn't look rushed. I love the shades you used! I could definitely see the shades on the girl's dress, it's really good! Overall, I like it, a lot! Awesome job and keep it up!

Hey Twinkle!
I think this is really good. My favorite thing has to be the bright colors x) What kind of colored pencils do you use? Because they are really vibrant! You also know exactly where to shade, which I love.

Personally, I think the girl is better drawn than the guy. Her proportions are right on, and her expression is great. With the guy, I can't quite tell what he's thinking. The way his eyebrow is angled, he looks kinda sad. But the way he holds himself upright, looking straight ahead, makes him look kind of out of it or dazed or something. Which doesn't seem to fit with the fact that he's holding a knife xP So that was the only thing that felt 'off' about this picture. I couldn't quite tell what the guy was supposed to be doing.

I've got a couple of nitpicks, that are really really tiny, but I figured I might as well mention them

You should've colored the sky horizontally, all the way down. It looks perfect until you get down to the hill, where you make curving lines to fill in the space on the left. This makes it look like the sky is contoured, when only the hill should be.

The guy's ear is too far down his face. It middle should be level with his nose, and the tip of the ear should be around where the eyes start. Things get a little wacky with anime, but if you look at your own face this is where the proportions would be

I think the guy's upper lip is a bit large, and a little pointy, but that is a tiny detail.

The dude looks a little skinny, but that might just be his character.

Overall, this is a lovely pic! I really think it's great that you focused on emotion in this one, and tried a background as well. Great job!!! You're improving already XD!

I really don't know why you're not sure it's that good. It's amazing. The way you'vecolored the sky gives it that lovely calm effect.
I wonder what the story behind this is. With the knife and the boy and the little girl. She looks so worried and helpless.Holding down his arm. And you've really done a great job at drawing the boys head sideview.
This picture is a wonderfuly colored and drawn piece of of work. You are such a talented person!

Hi Twinkle! <3

I know you did PM about this picture, but somehow I forgot. :S I'm awfully sorry. >.<
It's been long since I reviewed you so here goes~!

I'm going to be explaining in different sections which will be:
1) The Night
2) The Hill (Colored in green)
3) The Girl
4) The Boy

I hope it's okay.

The Night: Well, I guess it's okay. It should have been a little more realistic. I have doubt your not so good around color pencils and your much, much better off with pencils and shadings. Don't worry too much about it. I feel that it was sort of scribbled. :3 It didn't really come out well. I know you can do much better than this. But I do like the spookiness you have given. The bat flying away and all. The moon could have a little more shading.

The Hill: I did not like this part at all. >.< I'm so upset about it. Surely, you can can do better than this, Twinkle! You have the talent. You should have used different types of green. It must have come a lot more properly.

The Girl: I definitely like the girl. Her emotions are shown here and the eyes are fantastic! *claps* I felt that even she's saying something. I loved the girl. Absolutely fine! ^.^ But only one tiny problem. The cap. If you noticed, you've used the same color for the cap and the night. I first thought that it was just the sky. x33 Sorry. D:

The Boy: Now this is what I like. Wonderfully done! But the knife isn't seen so suddenly. I didn't even notice the knife. Of course I did read what you've written but I was scanning for the knife. Finally, I found it. And the skin color looks as if it's not even colored. Oh gosh. I'm being too rude! >.< Why? Why? -.-'' I'M SO SORRY. *hugs*

Overall: It was good but I found that you haven't exactly put in your usual effort comparing to other pictures you've drawn. You can do much better! Guaranteed! Anyway, this is just one picture from all the others. (Y) Not too much to worry, Love <3

PM, for other pictures you draw.
iLoveYou. <33

Cheers,
Cookie. ^.^

So the little girl in this is perfect. Her proportions and shading are really good. The only thing that I find with the boy that is just a tick off is the width of his face. it seems it sticks out just a touch too far from the rest of his head. I think its just the nose and the top lip, its nothing too huge, and nothing that absolutely has to be fixed. Also, we can tell from the sky that is night time, also from the title, but the grass is still really light as if the sun is shining on it. Maybe try to darken that up a bit so the background blends a bit more.

Your shading is really good =] Colored pencils are pretty difficult to use sometimes, especially when it comes to shading and the strength of color, so its nice to see someone that can pull that off well =] overall, Nicely done.
