Pep: Man, those pumpkins are sooo cool. Especially the Tetris one, what an awesome concept!

Here's some art I did of two of my original characters:

They're of an amphibic alien race called Calanthra, copyright the Private Exchange community. They're also siamese twins, and designed/named after the flower Linnéa Borealis (Twinflower).

And... I've been taking pottery classes. I just got my first ceramics-thing back! We were pretty restricted as we had to do something in that precise shape to learn the basics, and this is also my first glazing so I had no idea what it'd look like when finished. It is a pen/pencilholder, and it portrays a baby/fetus >3< ...I glazed it two times and carved out the shape of the baby in-between, but the second time some of the glaze caked off, so that's why it's so dark at some places... kind of looks like shading though. I also forgot to carve out the shape of the hairlock the second time so it's almost covered in glaze... durrh.

Thanks for the great C&C guys!

clr: The styles clash a little, but I did not know how to unify them better. I did want the rock to look like a rock, and the moss was kind of hard to make it look like moss if I didn't dither it. Aaand, I think I got a bit carried away with the scales on the mermaids tail. I just love sparkles  ^-^

Dhaos: The fruit are golden apples (every fairytale have them ;)) Did you mean that I should remove the dithering in the hair? I'm not quite sure myself that it looks good, honestly, but without it the colours doesn't blend so well.
Oh yeah, the fins probably looks unfinished because I haven't highlighted the upper parts of it for some reason (I must be tired, haha).
I'll see what I can do about the highlight in the water and the browns (assuming you meant them with "reeds"), but they belong to the same ramp as the gold, so I'll see how it comes out.

Been working on this for some days now. I just couldn't stop when I started it. I've even been seeing pixels and thinking about dithering when watching TV in the breaks I've had when cooking and eating stuff and so on :crazy:

I can say that I have already learnt lots by doing this piece, especially the tree and the water was killing me. Please give me some C&C. I always appreciate that. Hope you guys will like it! Oh, and do think it'd look good with a frame of some sort around it? Perhaps with shells, kelp and fishbones or something.

24 colours:





LATEST!!!:
With and without frame:

Looking good. The head is a bit hard to make out with that trunk on the back of it, but I guess it's part of the style/charm. I must say I love the colours of it.

TheAbyss: What's so weird with a weiner? At least 50% of the earth's prpoulation walks around with one. You too, I bet.

I really like this. Especially the nose looks awesome and very three-dimensional. I do think that the gray on the forehead is a bit too gray. Make it something closer to the brown, because now it draws all the attention to it instead of blending in with the picture.

Great job on these. I do have some c&c for the blue one though. First off; the face looks as if it's in another style than the rest of the body. The head might also be a little bit too large, and he seems to miss a neck. Secons; I do not think you can actually place your hand like he does around the trident. At least it would be very uncomfortable (I tried it). If you want his wrist curled around it like that, try moving it all closer to his side. Another option could be to change the position of his hand to holding the trident straight out from his body... umm how to explain. Like move it around so that he's gripping it from the left rather than the right. I could do an edit if you do not understand what I mean.

Wow. I love the mood in this piece. I really like her bodyshape and pose, and that hair looks so damn cool. All floofy and soft. The night sky is also wonderful and everything just goes so well together. A very impressive piece. I can't really give any crits because it all looks great to me! :y:

Edit: forgot to mention that it was really nice to see the progress of it all.

This is some hot stuff Helm! :o I really like the first one especially much. The mood is great and the face looks so good (I also really like the pine tree for some reason), but the moon and clouds really annoy me. All the attention is drawn to them but I don't think they look that good. If the moon would be bigger it would go better with the rest of the picture in my opinion. Or just add some more pinetrees? ^-^

Don't know what to say about the second one though. I don't really like triangle-stuff (just my personal preference) and I can't really make out what anything is in the piece except for the clouds.

The third one is really awesome though. I like everything about it. It's so well done! I like the eyes especially and the background as well. But I can't make out any of the text except for "Helx". Now you just have to post a photo of yourself so that we can compare it to the portrait, hehe. :P You already did that while I was posting so... yep. The portrait definitely looks like you. Great job on that!
