Reviews for "Room 1"

Too plain.

No really, it would be nice if we would have had something to look at.
This drawing is made out of only 27 lines, and only five different colours, so there aren't any details to look at. Things like the text on the door that is just a line or two makes it unfinished.

Spend more time on detail, but most of all, check your art one last time before you submit it. Out of the already very few lines, most of them are a few millimetres too long, meaning they stick out.

By the way, I'm not an art expert, but it seems to me that the line under the grey parts to the sides means that it's all one wall, without an opening. It seems to me though that you wanted to have an opening there in the wall.
Talking about the openings, something should come out there. Maybe just a hand, but at least something, to give it for example a bit of a scary feeling.

In general, it almost seems that I spent more time on this review that you on that art piece.
It's 3D, sure, and for practicing it's a well done picture. But it isn't a great picture to just look at as art.

Is that it?

There definitely isn't much to see over here. Apologies if this review ends up being too harsh but I wasn't impressed.

Probably the best thing about this would be that the proportions were alright. The way you drew it did give a sense of 3D and in that aspect I think you did a good enough job.

Having said that, there's so little content to see over here that I couldn't give a higher score. It's a room with a door. That's all it is. No textures on the walls, no shading, no details such as lights, switches, wall decay, or even a character or two to spice things up. I can understand that perhaps you just made this to exercise your skills in proportion and 3D, but as an Art submission this barely holds a finger to other stuff on the Art Portal.

There are some technical issues too. Some of the lines are too long and indicate that you rushed it, the door isn't exactly in the middle, there's more wall showing on one side opening than on the other, one opening is wider than the other, and there are unexplained white lines at the top and bottom of the picture.

Moreover, the quality is poor - I can see JPEG compression artifacts quite clearly around the edges of the room and the door. I know these may just sound like unnecessary nitpicks, but they all indicate that you rushed this, and rushing rarely yields good results.

There are some bigger problems too. The picture is far too bland and simple. As I already said, there are no intricacies or details that I want to see in an Art submission. Additionally, you drew the side openings wrongly. At the bottom of each opening there's a vertical line which shouldn't be there. There should be one horizontal line like at the top.

In general there certainly isn't much to this submission. Not only does this lack in content, but the content that is already there isn't drawn too well either. 3D proportion was alright, but other than that I can't really find any other good aspects of this submission.
3/10
