Well, you know i like the design already but i'm not exactly fond of the colours. They are just too david. I wish they were more vibrant. Thats my only complaint, sorry dude.

You could have just said that these specific colors weren't vibrant instead of going and insulting my whole catalog of work, jerkface.

trying to get me banned? im cleaning up my act to please the high council dammit.

I like the new colours much more but they still seem so average. They need more pizazz, it needs to jump out at you.

I think your darkest shade before black is too close to it and gets lost.

nice, i like this.
The brighter tones make it look shiney.. but I'm wondering how it would look if you kept the duller tones but added some speculars to create a wetness to it. With the brighter tones, it would be hard to add speculars because the lightest tones are very bright already, and so it is looking more metallic than wet. I'm assumeing this is some sort of water creature since it looks like a squid.

Wow, i love this, looks awesome. I actually rather like the colours, keeps it more sinister yet still with that beautiful underwater worldly look. Personally i preffered the first draft's colours (with the higher saturation in the highlight) I'll love to see it finished.

I like everything you've done so far. it reminds me of Boktai backgrounds, I think it's the fuzzy looking ink and the color selection.

I dont see why everything must be overly saturated so as to "jump out" at you, I think the color selection here fits the relaxed fllowing movmenentof the squid.

I'm only concerned about how you will aproach the tentacles.

make sure you dont use every shade on every tentacle, try to create some depth by being selective on which tentacle is highlighted and which isnt, strange as it may sound that creates better depth than using everything everywhere.
