I'm gonna start with the bad, and come out with the good.
The ground being green was unsettling. Given how the background is all flame and how he's got all these awesome spirals of fire around him, it as a floor colour just didn't really go. If you just desaturated it a little and made it greyer, it could have given the illusion of rock or something; just something a little harder and darker, to go with what is a very powerful rest-of-picture.

Where are the feet? His legs kinda look like they end at a sort of stump; I'm guessing you wanted the feet to be forward-facing, but there's just no tangible indication that they're there at all, so maybe having the shoes at more of an angle just so they're more obvious would have been a good idea.

That aside...the crasher itself seems well drawn (feet aside), but it's the flame detailing that really leaps out at you. The way it spirals around his arms make you feel like he's the one in control of it, and the way the entire background is aflame makes you think that he's the cause of whatever destruction he stands in front of (on that point, would have been nice to have a little more background detail; give some indication of what exactly is on fire. But that's just a little thing)

The way it kind of dissapates so there's flames coming out of each finger is also really nicely done, and the little shadings there are add a nice dimension to the piece; the character stands out, he looks dangerous and aggressive, I think you tick every box in the drawing aspect there and there's definitely a lot of potential here. Keep it up.

Pretty cool...

Man, I have to say, the drawing was pretty nice, it's a very beautiful picture, the colors are very nice, it has life, and it gave a nice touch to the final result...

The backgrounds looks cool, I liked the colors of the flames, it seems that the Crasher destroyed everything in his way, I really like drawings like these, with kind of raging characters, and you made a nice one...

I just think that the Crasher isn't with a good perspective, since the flames aren't very real and his body is too thin and big, you can improve your skills, just practice and you'll be nice, also, keep on drawing, man...

A good piece

If only your flash movies showed such a level of detail. I can certainly see this scoring highly if you get scouted. Draw more of this level of work and you'll be a shoe in for the portal.

I think that a little more work could be done on the background, in order to compliment the look of the central figure. The castle crasher is a great piece and as a result, you've got a wonderfully artistic impression of this being of fire.

I love how you've formed the fingers out of the flames and the personality of the character is certainly stated in bold. Perhaps he needs to be holding his weapon, as well?

I like fire, I like Castle Crashers...

...so yeah, I can't say I don't like this submission ^^. This looks well-drawn and actually looks quite mighty, so yeah, good job on this :D.

The colours, well, red, green and white. While I like your use of different shades of red, unfortunately I don't like the fact that you made the ground green. It sort of stands out in the fiery atmosphere of the piece. Make it fit with the colour scheme a little more, maybe some shade of red with a few sparks coming out of the ground or something, it's just that green didn't really fit with the colour scheme in my opinion. The shading was good, and although the texture, especially on the fire, was pretty simply, it added to the unique stylethat you used to draw this. So yeah, the texture/shading overall was decent, but the colour of green for the ground stands out a bit, and I think you should find something which matches a bit more with the colour scheme of red.

The picture itself was drawn well. The feet look a little weird, and the outline of the ground was too thick, but you drew this well overall, especially the fire around the Castle Crasher, although maybe you could make it that both of his hands are holding fireballs. Just a suggestion ^^. The background was done very well, and I like that you added that fiery background instead of left it one colour or something. Good job :).

In general, it's a pretty simple piece, has its defects like any other picture, but it's an all around good submission. Keep it up.
8/10
