[Daily Imagination #14 - Rhino Beetle]

Nice lighting, but it needs something else coming from below or behind. It's back half looks too dark and undefined.

[The aftermath]

It's got strong points, for sure, but everyone seems to have those handled. I'd rather tell you about how it's visually cluttered, and how there's little to no relationship between the lights and darks making it even more confusing. In there you got red, yellow, black, and white... did you need the yellow? I'm not exactly sure how it's adding to it. Sorry, splatters don't mean anything to me.

It looks like you put a lot of effort into that vulture, if you just toned down the effects then the composition would do the rest for you, as it's already drawing my eye to the head.

[Vorak]

Quality work as always, It's worth putting in the time to get this level of detail.

RussFairchild responds:

Thank you! =D Yes it is worth, even when I don't see it half way through! lol

[Weird weather today]

Too much separation between the foreground and background. They look great on their own but don't seem like part of the same scene.

P-cate responds:

Thanks for the advice!

[animal heads]

So amazing how you barely detail anything yet they look almost complete from far away. You're at a very high skill level for sure.

[The Green Dream]

Pretty cool, the colors could be more varied but the biggest thing is the value which isn't balanced well. The lights should get dimmer as they go down to the bottom.

Toshi13go responds:

Thanks! I'll keep that in mind for future pieces!^ ^ thank you!

[Spider-Gwen]

This is sick. Gorgeous anatomy and the pose looks very innocent. Don't be silly, there can never be enough art of her.

[Slugged!]

I love the design of the treads, they look really "fun" if that makes any sense. Only negative thing I see is some of the lower tentacles look a bit flat, and having them both be green makes the two subjects blend just a little. Also the outline on the jelly thing is inconsistent.

[Tension]

I like to think pieces like this take creativity to another level because they employ the abstract, not only the fictional. You can FEEL the tension in the amount of effort he's putting in to escape. This is maybe not the most beautiful in terms of presentation, but the content carries the slack here. The movement in the lines all accentuate the focal point nicely as well. You got my 5.

ChillyCheese responds:

Thanks a lot man! I know its not very clean, I'm always trying to work on the "feeling" of the image that I often neglect to polish the image. Sometimes that rawness works in my favor, other times not so much. I'm glad you like it though!

[Oxblood again]

The one thing I want to point out is that the iris is supposed to be a cone so any shadows that fall in there are gonna follow those contours. Maybe you already knew that, but that's not the impression I got from this. I did a little edit:
