Wow there is a lot of good detail here, and it doesn't feel clutter at all.

I am digging it!

Re: Baby Saber


Very unique style, the colors are nice together, and refreshing to see a submission not in earth tones. I have always liked the tiger-striped take on sabertooths. Good luck!

It does feel a little busy to me, and I recognize that is partially because of the style you've drawn in. It could be made a little less busy by taking out the dots in the foreground (they make it look like it's snowing almost) and perhaps making the grass blades thicker and not having quite as many. (Because they overlap the fur, which is already very textured) The fur and the leaves seem fine, since they don't overlap and are actually quite "solid" - meaning, the shirt color doesn't show through nearly as much as the very thin grass blades. If that makes any sense.

Re: Baby Saber


I really like the effect you have going. It gives the shirt a ton of texture and the colors are extremely well picked. I'm a particular fan of the spiraling stripes on the sabertooth.

Hey Snow - another fantastic design! I'm so jealous - you've got mad skills. I love the effect you create... I don't understand why your design are consistently under rewarded. Don't stop trying though, they'll have to come around eventually. GMV!! Good luck.

Thank you Runnerfrog for such a nice comment and for the constructive feedback. I will incorporate your thoughts into my brain processing unit. It is nice to have feedback, I spend alot of time analyzing the artwork here , feedback is helpful. And I appreciate it!
I hope you have a great day..

Re: Baby Saber


it's a really nice and fresh design.I think the dots are too equally put on the design, and have all same size, perhaps you could get a better effect , using different sizes and more random placement, but just my 2 cents ;-))sorry for my approximative english

Kharma, that is a great suggestion about the dots...I was right at the coloring stage when my computer quit and I hadn't saved it...I lost a half days work on it...so I took a long break , decided not to give up, went back, re -did all the work, and the last thing I added was the dots...next time, I am going to use your advice about dot size. (thankyou for the great and very useful input!!


Also, as you know I am loving your cool entries...
Especially this one (Below) I didn't realize that you weren't from around here!! Maybe that explains the artwork, it is really nice, and not what you see every day.

Re: The return of Quetzalcoatl


I totally love your (above) dark and spooky, very cool winged heavy metal looking prehistoric creature you came up with, it really appeals, and as I have already said, I will enjoy it very much when this side of your repertoire decides to show itself again! For now, I will just totally enjoy this one.

Awwww Snow! That is so sweet, and I am SO glad to help a talented artist such as yourself!
I agree with others- this deserves more love. Hopefully, this will at least get an honorable mention!

Re: Baby Saber


Long, long ,long,looooong ago.....

By Urga

One night in a fit of pique , I left the cave because my mate Thorg had eaten the last yuck-pew plant.
Angrily I thrashed through the forest!
Suddenly, Urga stopped! Quiet was Urga, there, through the bushes Urga saw a heartwarming scene that nevertheless made her blood run cold!

It was an enormous cat with long curved teeth and with it was its cub, ferocious and cruel ,not even two and already a maneater!

Quickly Urga took a rock and wisely carved the touching scene into a piece of handy rotting wood!

Urga showed Thorg! Silly cave artists painting on walls! This much better!Now Urga say, one million years from now, everyone will see the long tooth,for here it is ...on Urgas piece of wood!

(this ridiculousness brought to you by your friend snowqueenvt, we now return to your previously scheduled program, already in progress)

I like the dots, I think it makes the whole scene look a little magical. I would recommend (for future reference) maybe using a thinner stroke for the black outlines, it will tone down the business but still preserve the rich texture that makes this beautiful.

It's a really nice piece though, and I love the color palette. I think it would make a very wearable shirt.
