Great Armor Design!

The helmet looks particularly cool (albeit hard to see through )

aletime responds:

Thank you for your comment!

I guess the teeth area is the visor, but even the original design not leave much room to see through the helmet...

[Fallout Commission]

Great use of minimalist style.

You seem to have a good thing going for you with your art style and aesthetic. It has a very clean, easy-on-the-eyes look to it, and I very much like the contrast of colours and detail between the main figure and the background.

THAT SAID, I think you might want to look into how you do lighting effects. I feel like a bit more shine to it would do wonders to the crispness of it. Also, I'm not particularly fond of the four little dots you used for her hair shading. I just feel that hair is the one place that you should spend extra time on lighting and shine effects, particularly in this kind of art style. I would personally suggest you try looking at some other artists who have similar sorts of art styles and see check how they do with hair effects. I could link you a few artists for reference, if you ever become so interested. Also, I feel like a few other places, like her leather armour, could have used some very light shine to make her whole figure pop out a bit more.

With that said, I'm very much liking your posing and expression you gave her. You do a good job of speaking about her personality through her body language, and that's a talent certainly worth noting.

TheUnseriousguy responds:

thanks for the advice, thats a good idea

[Friend Character Practice]

Gotta respect an artist who spends that much time on a single piece of work and sees it through to the end.

Believe me when I say I know that feeling.

TheN0mad responds:

thanks much man :) it was alot of time but it paid off

[Dark Caster - Portrait]

Really cool; I keep coming back to look at it! I'm very fond of your art style and your animations.
I have 2 questions:
1. I see that the file is a .gif. I'd like to know, do you use Flash to animate, and if so, does Flash allow you to export as .gifs?

2. I'd love to commission you when you're available! What are your rates?

adeCANTO responds:

1. Actually, I use After Effects to animate, and I compile and export using Photoshop. :D I'm a total noob in flash. Seriously.

2. I'm setting up the final touches for the site. Soon enough I'll make it available! :D I'm not sure about prices yet, but I compared to the regular comissioners on Tumblr and if I think I'm overloaded with requests, I'll just make stuff more expensive so I narrow down on demand.
