[Kratos as a Lady]

Oh, how lovingly retro! I know that old magazine, 50's style so well, having had older parents. Yep, those little oddly angled feet, cherub face, riskay pin-up pose, is a perfect flip of the neo-classical Kratos.

Your imagination and skill seem to be improving, genuine 5/5, 10/10

Sabtastic responds:

Aw, hey thanks man! :3

This one was a really different approach, brushes and all. Normally I spend tons and tons of time on the line art, but this drawing had none! It started off as a big fleshy blob of pastel brush, and I just refined the ever living shit out of it, until there was some decent detail.

Cheers! Maybe I'll make some more one'a these days. I can finish these quick!

With the exception of the mammary glands, I'd say this is the most realistic rendering I've seen in quite a while! Black BG and well rendered speakers suits the subject all too well!
Half a star off for the oversized hips/skinny-as-hell abdomen... I know Disney made it in vogue, and the wider hips do look more attractive to the baby-making sect, but to me, it's a fad embellishment.

[Old Final Project3]

I can see what you mean, regarding your description! Excellent work holmes!
In America, we say "Measure twice, cut once". Working free-hand as you did with this piece, shows you have some experience with estimation and perspective.
I hope you'll produce some new, original works soon - parodies are just for practice and page-views :)

[Robbery]

I was there over a decade ago, and they're not as polite as when the cameras are on.
Perhaps the robber should've haggled and offered an 1/8 of what's in his gun clip lol.

Not bad, good work on the background and the lens effect in the final panel.

[Old Final Project2]

Again, this is good work, but what's the deal with the overhead light (or is it a skylight), on the ceiling at the end of the hallway? Looks awfully crooked...

ElectroJoe responds:

I guess for the overhead light I had a hard time getting the perspective down. Might have been because it was too bright at that time, though It also might be the shadowing that's giving the appearance of it being crooked.

[Cat Children - Part 1]

Well, it (the punchline) wouldn't be 'curiosity killed the cat', would it?

Chickenlump responds:

Shut up you aren't my dad.

[Alfred Sez Check Yo'Self]

All looks sweet, except maybe for the teeth, looking a tad floaty. Alfred sage words should be taken to heart, because shotgun pellets are bad fo yo heailth. This would make a nice motivational poster!

[Red Coats]

Battle of Bunker Hill, June 17th 1775... pretty nasty engagement for the British, though unlike the picture, the Colonists were behind fortifications around midday.

Wonderful satirical humor, detailed panels and blood... blood is the common denominator of conflict, and yuck-yucks alike!

[Issabelle]

Awesome job! The cartoony style gels well with this piece!

*singing* How much is that dog-gie in the window? Arf-arf!
10 grand, bitch!

[Kasumi and her sun lotion]

Oh that's lovely! You did the backgrounds yourself? Just loving the crisp and accurate lines and color! Quite a good pose and facial expression as well! The eyes look a little off center from the nose and mouth a bit, but it doesn't matter, the whole thing looks flawless! Also, the color shading on her right knee, looks a bit off... still 10/10 bro!

pablocomics responds:

Yes I made the BG myself, that's inspired on a photo but it's 100% speedpaint :)
