[Los Angeles Traffic]

Aww! That's such a cute little 3D object/gif thing! Wish it was bigger so I didn't have to strain my eyes to pick up the details, but I love it!

[HoneyWell Garden]

Hi! Thanks for following me! Since I don't have enough to say to warrant a private message, I decided to check out your art and thank you in my review. This looks really cool, very good vector art. Looks like it'll have something to do with gardening and beekeeping, am I correct? I'm excited to know more about this.

BlueCrystalStudio responds:

Yes, exactly. You plant seeds and grow them into Flowers wich you sell with profit. They also produce honey that you can sell or use to upgrade the beehive. For all those money from profits you build and decorate your home, wich % increase EXP you gain, increase % of your production, etc..

[Portrait : new style]

I really love the way this is done! It reminds me of something, but I don't know what. I'll have to think on that. Either something sci-fi dystopia or outfits worn by an 80s band. I'd love to see more art in this style.

Vedanta responds:

I am planning to continue this style :)

[Come n' Get It]

I really love what you did with this. The design is well thought-out and continues the style of the mask. The lighting and shading are very, very well-done. With the background, the general doll-ish-ness of the character, and the creepiness of Phanto in general, it's really creepy and I wouldn't have it any other way. P.S. What were some of the art tricks you learned? I'm curious.

PajamaMcHam responds:

Thanks, I put a good amount of time working out her design, looked at Mario 2 as a whole to draw inspiration. As for art tricks, this is the first piece I've ever used Gradient Maps on. As well as working in separate layers while working out the shading before a merging, it makes for much cleaner lighting in general. As well as properly practicing my grayscale checks after and during the application of color. Also rim lights... lots of rim lighting. It was a nice learning experience
