Besides that shoulder connection that is a bit worrisome, so far so good. Not much critique to be given on the pixel level. Why not go ahead and render it and we can talk about that.

I have no idea what you have going on with his right shoulder.
I just erased the huge addition you had going on.

I think the head seems a bit small also, I thought it might be a perspective thing at first but the rest of the upper body doesn't support this. adjust that, then get onto rendering and fixing up the jaggies. This piece could look really good after that.

These were part of a plan to redraw character portraits for Streets of Rage Remake due to some complaints that the portraits in V4 didn't suit the feel of the game. While I don't mind the one guy who said that it's too bright for SOR, I do mind the remark of the style not fitting in with the SOR feel...

Because it's another one of those moments where my style has no place to belong but here, on my lap. And that makes me feel kinda lonely.

Yet another WIP I spent WAAAAAAAAAAY way way too much time on. I eventually decided to abandon this version for now in order to completely start from scratch...

Go back to that one. That's the best piece so far in here.
Your line art's are nice, you just need to be worrying about pixel technique right now.

The last one confuses me especially. Why does she have bunny ears, whiskers, and a tuft of chest hair? Her expression is far too demure if she's conscious of the hideous transformation that's taking place.

- She's a furry, like most of what I've made in this thread.

- First time I've heard "hideous" on this kind of picture (most of the time it's something like "wtf"). This was meant to be done for a friend of mine, who's a huge fan of Devil May Cry, and the transformation is based on Lucia from DMC2, whose Devil Trigger form is that of what looked like an angel with most of her body "wearing" her own wings, and her head also veiled by her wings. I thought to myself, "hey, that actually looks more cute than cool", and so I used that idea as a base to this picture... if you look closely, she's caressing her own wings that are coming out in the style of a mixture of a butterfly coming out of its coccoon and a flower blossoming. And assuming transformations in the DMC universe were harmless, I made her transform by having her whole body crack open like an egg.

Hope that clears things up.

I meant "hideous" in the context of "I'm turning into a giant rodent", not "hideous" as in the viewer of the art wants to coat-hanger his own eyeballs. :)

Rabbits are not rodents. That aside, it is indeed the nicest one so far, but you really should try to apply full pixel treatment on one of your pieces.

Other than that, what you described above, the whole transformation thing into an angel type does not read at all.
There are no ugly colours, only ugly combinations of colours.
