Just posted another entry (on page 7) but this time using another art medium and a totally un-cartoony style. Any constructive comments would be welcome guys?

Im not sure, its weird, it looks like a picture/blurry painting that you just added a bunch of filters on? it is hard to critisize something that distorted. the composition (which is the only thing i can see for sure) is fairly good though, i would have made the cat lower maybe

ahuhauahuah!!!! Sirkowski´s one was awesome....really funny....lol....love it!

Pencil sketch, turned blue in Photoshop for inking and coloring in Flash.

Ahnm....yeah,it´s surely different....but the idea was great.....better would be if it was a picture of a girl in a fathing position or osmething like it and....the you could do it looking like a draw.....anyway,i just got that retarded idea......
anyway,it´s quite original

Hi Sirkowski,

I'm quite a fan of your work - and that last piece was (even though I anticipated Eva's actions) great!

^ _^

I inked it manualy with the brush. The light blue color is just easier to ink over.

Hey, thanks doopa. I like yours too. Work on that anatomy a bit more. Perhaps it's intentional, but the bear's arm is really curved. Love the lighting.

Here's a bigger version of my piece.

Ahh..i got it...omg...that´s so many work ;_;.....but anyway,in the end all that spended time make it work....because it is really awesome....next time i´ll try to do the same thing...cuz...i think that on my work,it´s possible to see where is the original draw and where i linked with the pencil tool on flash.. >.<
Anyway,thanks for the tip xD
Keep the great work!!!

Thanks for the feedback elmicah and Flashing-Bird. Going off what you've told me I now know what to revise/change/experiment with in future pieces.

The blurring of the pic is intentional as is the lack of features on the childs face (it's a psychological attempt to make the viewer feel wary or find the picture disturbing).

Thanks a lot guys! ^_^

Yeah the colored version made me sigh, for me atleast it looked way to rushed like he did it in 5 minutes, it really ruined what i thought was going to turn out real nice.

I think I like yours the best so far, but I don't know why you left all that space on the left . There's nothing to see there :o

Hey, made a few quick sketches. wondering if ones got more appeal or potential than the rest. small picture attached, large one here

2 of em are about girl scouts, the others are general ideas

MindChamber.... you're an ass.

Love the girlscout standing in doorway, do a more dramatic angle though if possible, like an ant's eye view, could be really awesome. Looking forward to it.

My little cute and fluffy girl!!!!!...

Shit, looking at some of the entries from Stamper,JohnnyUtah,gel, poxpower, etc made me think....why the hell did I even bother showcasing my lame art in thier presence?

No, its exactly 312903912.

Work in progress I hope to finish today. 100% digital.

And while we're at it, here's that first entry that I had started to color with photoshop. I was coloring it by computer, then I printed the outline, painted it and decided it was cool enough to enter like that.
I had planned on finishing this, but I guess I won't now because its so incredibly boring.

@KingJava:
cool submission! (I'm referring to the Santa's)
Good idea, good performance.
The only thing you may want to improve is the girl, just to make her appear less generic, and to give her a bit more personality.
Other than that, it's just perfect. 8)

My favorite of the bunch. I especially like the effect you get from the image having to be cropped. Seeing one dead reindeer at first, followed by the slaughter image just made it that more surprising. Very cool, excellent concept. I also like the inconspicuous look of the girl, just a normal little girl with a huge weapon.

Nice lines pox, and textures on the previous. Some really impressive art coming out for this competition. While I like the detailed pics of huge tech weapons I personally feel that the payoff is in the result of a small girl with a big weapon. As cutesy as they look, what happens when they get these weapons? Kind of boring to just have them stand around and take aim at an imaginary target. ¢2
