that's so cute what the heck i love anime for kids i must check this out
great drawing, i love your color choices
the hairband looks kind of plasticlike to me ?
she's really cute though u_u <3

[Here come Samson]

your style is INSANE i love it
her right boob looks a little bit geometric though, like it sort of has corners
not that it detracts or anything from the picture itself, it looks really great

MAKOMEGA responds:

hey thanks for the review,.. yeah is a quick sketch they have a lot of error but soon i will make the full color version i hope you will be in that review C:

[Cyborg portrait]

that detail.
i think...from what i can see, the eyes look a little bit far apart. also, the nose seems a little flat to me and has weird nostrils. they look sort of like they're in the middle of the nostril part rather than on the bottom. just look at your own nose for reference :) the bottom lip could be a bit bigger, too, maybe.
all this stuff could just be part of the android anatomy thing, though.
it looks REALLY good though, i love your use of color. and all of the little details are insane. you have a gift with painting.!

BazookaBonsai responds:

Yea, these are areas I just keep struggling with, especialy the nose. Was drawing cartoon noses for way too long. How to fix that? I'll just have to keep practicing.

I thank you alot for the feedback. I will try my best to do better next time :)

[Farewell]

i really like the colors you used! in particular, for the skin. and i love his facial expression. he seems so unamused. it works for your style.
as far as critiques go, i would maybe make his legs a bit longer in proportion to his arms. either that or make his arms shorter; in proportion to the rest of his body, they (the one arm thats showing anyway) look sort of long.
also, the background is sort of scribbly, and i would have added other colors like maybe magenta or something to make him stand out or just to make it look more interesting, but like you said, you wanted it to be done quickly, which i understand.
all together this is good! your style is really cute. please keep it up :>

so bombin' to find more people that do ballpoint pen stuff, first of all.
secondly...dang. your shading is off the charts. i'm not 100% sure what's going on, but who cares, it looks really great. surrealism? probably.
i think maybe in the future, if you wanted to make things stand out more, let the paper show through the lines? like, let more highlights happen. i'm a victim of going overboard on the shading too though so :P
also, i don't know where the light source is on the ball things. on one it seems like the light source is from the bottom, but on the one right below it, there's light coming from the top.
i know pen stuff is really hard though, so don't worry about it too much, just when you're drawing, try to kep in mind a light source. what i do is very very lightly draw little lines showing where the light would hit from the source, ie if it's the sun, draw very light lines from the rays (or you could use a pencil for this bit) to show where the light would hit, then draw over it later.
it still looks phenomenal, though. like i said, pen is really hard but it's nice to find more people that do things with it. i really like your art. *_*

Thank you very much for the feedback !

[Yoko Pinup]

her right leg looks sort of long and twisted around to me, and i'm not sure about the gravity of her boobs, though i'm not entirely sure. also, the shading on her left leg (the one that's straight out) looks a bit muddy; i would have used more of a reddish color rather than just brown? though, i don't really know what your actual color palette was like.
but this still looks really cool!! the shading on her stomach is really neat, and her hair swooping around her is so bamf. yoko is one of my favorites, i think.
good job n~n

[Ho-Oh]

i love this!! ho-oh is probably one of the more underappreciated legendaries.
i like how it's all outlined in black but at the same time it's painted-looking, which really gives it (like makomega said) the japanese ukiyo-e kinda feeling, it looks really good dude B)

Sabtastic responds:

Hey thanks! Saw your other review for the Yoko pic, too.
Thanks for taking the time to write comments.

All of it was done with a really dry ink brush in Photoshop, hense the sumi-e (ish) style. Glad you like it!
