I looovvveeeee the duo images and I think I've already told you that a few times now. I'm just blown away by how much personality and dynamic posing you're able to get into them.
I also just absolutely adore the duck pile. The way you went adult > kid > duck > rubber ducky is inspired, and the background, the ducks everywhere, it's just so cute! I also appreciate just how much mood you got in here, especially when the mood is "sleepy."
Mason looks great! I dig the way you've posed him, giving him some direction and a sense of confidence that makes him nice and distinct despite his being a pretty normal looking guy in a tank top. Speaking of, I like the way you drew that, just how it hangs, where it cuts off, I dunno, it just looks very nice.
Corin, too, looks very good. I appreciate that he's nice and friendly-looking, and that you got his sweater in frame. I'm especially into how you did his hair; all the layers and shading on it look really good and help convey that it's kind of a curly mess.
I'm so, so glad you decided to give Nick the knees-up treatment, because you get so much personality into him just through his posture. The slump, the hands in pockets, it's all great stuff. Nick's a character who has a really distinct vibe and you've done amazingly getting it down, especially how it looks like it's been a few days since he's had proper rest.
Compared to the last few, Maxwell is so nice and polished, which is great contrast, especially since you've managed to suggest pretty good posture for him even without too much below the neck. I think a lot of that is wrapped up in the tie, which suggests a trajectory for his body by continuing down (and which looks very sleek as well).
You picked a super nice angle to get Rebecca's earring in the shot, which is also nice and dynamic. I appreciate you trying out new poses, and also really like how you got her hair so layered and colorful while still being natural-looking.
With Vlad, I especially dig the stiffness of the collar he has. It makes him look formal in a way, but without crossing the line into exaggeration. I also appreciate the work you've done with color; his palette mostly plays in the same general pool of faint colors, but you bring them all to distinctness.
Derrick's outfit has a ton going on, but it looks great! You make all the different elements fit together nicely, and have done really well capturing the different textures of his shirt and jacket and how they lie against each other; this gives him some real depth, which I dig. I also like his hair a ton!
Mo's grin is great. He looks super relaxed and outgoing but with a deeper edge, which fits him well. I'm taken by how you did his facial structure; you always get the curve where nose meets eye socket just right, and it is so impressive to me because it's something I normally don't consciously register even in real people's faces.
Ace and Meilin look adorable together! I really dig how the cotton candy matches her shirt, and the fluffy texture almost evokes her ruffled dress; it ties the whole piece together nicely. I also think the way her hair colors blend and progress is really smooth. Your background here is minimal, but that's all it has to be; it puts in a ton of work and it's great to see them just enjoying a pleasant day.
I really dig Uriel, and you've done so nicely capturing his quirky V1ness while also making him look like somebody I could see being a real person (if perhaps one wearing a costume). Speaking of, you got the priestly witch-hinter getup down pat!
David, meanwhile, looks really nice and normal, but you've done well making him an engaging piece anyways. His blue eyes mesh well with the red of his hair. You're also good at ears, and I like how his is peeking out.
Mafia!Sakurako is of course absolutely incredible. I love that you gave her tattoos but also kept the exact same glasses she had in canon, and I also appreciate the way you've posed her, making her both relaxed and dangerous looking at the same time. She has that Sakurako mischievous edge, but with a little bit more oomph behind it.
Tiny looks great, and just in his facial shape you can tell that his name doesn't quite fit him. I really appreciate the way you handled his cheekbones and chin, which gives him a sort of width that speaks mostly to fitness.
Kian's hair is so neat and his hat is so slacker, and the contrast between them is wonderful. As always, the PV3 uniform looks snappy and nice in art, and you've done a great job making a bunch of kids who are mostly dressed the same still look distinct from each other!
I have no real idea who Clare is (deep deep cuts here!) but she looks nice. I especially like the way her scar is kind of understated, and how her hair looks like it was at one point almost neat but has come undone and she hasn't cared to fix it.
Nevera actually looks really slick and has good visual design; good job working with the oldschool descriptions (and also shoutout to Daemonic_Wulf for actually including an island outfit). Her braid looks great, and I dig that it's more neat and tidy than, say, Clare's hair. I also really like her jacket.
You pulled out all the stops on Hawley, and it shows! I super love the reflection on his glasses, which both plays down and highlights his heterochromia. You also exceptionally carried the lighting through the rest of the piece, which makes him look very dramatic. A fitting piece for one of the especially iconic oldschool characters!
The Lion King lift is amazing and I love the shirts, the poses, but most of all the faces. That one made me smile so much!
Finally, poor poor Marceline. ;-; You got all the details down so well, and it really brings home the tragedy seeing her laid out like that. You're actually quite talented at the grim and bloody side of things! I also am into you remembering the collar, which I forget an unfortunate amount of the time; it's a great reminder of the why to the whole thing.
You rock so hard for making these! Thank you for your hard work.
