I must apologize for the late results. These are the comments from TWO judgesMahotou~ Good effect with the grass with the texture and tones. Proportion of body is almost there. Lines could be neater. Seems there's a missing hand. Overall is not bad.
The colouring is pretty good but there's still a lack of toning. The range of toning can be wider, especially the hands. You could have put in more work on it. Do take some time to erase the jagged lines and colour all the missing parts.
On the drawing part, I would say it's pretty good. I have drawn this picture as well before but the details on the shirt and pants weren’t as good as yours. So that's of course *tow thumbs up* =) However, you have to work on your face proportions and as the previous judge has said, the hand is missing. It’s probably due to the angle. Maybe you can add more lines to the ball to make it look like a soccer ball because at the current state, it looks like a rubber ball and it actually spoils the picture. And yep, I went to see a few of your drawings and I realized you should pay more attention to your proportions.
Background wise, you probably did that in photoshop so it wasn’t really taken into consideration. But I would just like to drop a few lines on it. The grass is too tall. It doesn’t really suit the atmosphere as who plays soccer on such places? And yep, you can definitely make the grass flow more ^^
Overall, it’s a good piece of work. Do put in more effort and work hard
child~ Good thick lines, very cleary seen. More touch up could be done, some lines are quite faint. Looks quite like the original picture. Keep up the good work.
Yay for lineart! Your entry sure stands out from the rest as the lines are clearly drawn. I am pretty sure it looks nicer without any colouring. However, maybe it would look better if you colour some parts black eg. The hair.
The middle picture is of course the most well drawn. It sure follows the style of Aoyama <3 The first picture and the third has some faults in some parts.
The catchy text is definitely a plus to the whole picture. Of course, it would look better if you can observe how some artists place the position of their texts.
Overall, it was very well drawn and it is pretty rare to see people who are good in drawing and not relying only on the colouring skills to attract people’s attention.
One fault in your drawing is the flow of the lines. Your lines should be less stiff, especially on the sleeve and hair. Don’t forget to erase those blue lines as well XD
Tin~ Nice toning effect. Good proportion, characters are in shape. Lines are clear. Well done and continue to keep it up.
Woot! It has been such a long time since I see such a well coloured work. You sure have the style of Gosho in toning. I haven’t really seen any flaw in the colouring except for the arm. The *coughs* armpit area there is supposed to be darker, no? Thank you. I really learnt a lot from you. Honestly speaking, I never thought that leaving some parts white would have given the picture a much better effect. I shall start colouring using my works manually soon. Thanks, once again for the great inspiration.
Drawing wise, of course you would need to improve on the faces. And Ran’s fringe, the one nearer to the ‘horn’ should be higher up ^^
Keep those traditional art coming <3 And I tried playing around with your drawing in photoshop. I think I ruined it >.<
Kaito~ Cute and comical drawing. Lines could be slight thicker and clearer. Good toning and texturing. Unique choice of drawing compared to others. Excellent! Great job!
Very original indeed <3 Kaito looks sooooooooo cute & cooooollll in there! I would have to give you a ++++ for being very original.
Drawing wise is pretty good. Except for Ran’s eyes, they are too low. Aoko’s right hand looks twisted >.< Of course, I really have to give you another +++++++++ for choosing a design which fits each and every characters.
The colouring part is rather messy. Tidy up Kaito’s pants especially. It looks like he has got a twisted leg XD
Meitantei Lucy~ Looks quite like the original, but lines, colouring and toining could have been better. Nevertheless, it's still quite a nice one. Well done, but there's much room for improvement.
Your drawing is really good ^^ Though it’s not original, not many can copy as well as you do. So congrats for having such a great talent ^^
The pencil lines are quite messy. I can’t blame you because it’s hard to get firm lines but do try to tidy them up in Photoshop and brighten the picture =))
I did something to your picture as well. Argh! I just ruined another picture >.<
AceOfSpades 1~ Not bad, good job with the computer work. However, proportion of character could be better. The body should be either all on the spade or over it, looks a bit strange this way. The spade could be a bit darker, spades are supposed to be quite dark.
Good colouring but the toning is not enough. Instead of using 2 shades, you can use 3 or 4.
Drawing wise, you can improve on the faces. He looked a bit like a squirrel actually XD So cute *squish*
Background is rather plain and you should have used a darker shades of blue to make it more contrasting. And do erase the extra lines at the bottom.
AceOfSpades 2~ Quite nice, but proportions of hair and necks seems out. There're lines sticking out of the heart that could've been erased for a better picture.
Once again, do work on the faces. No offense but I really didn’t know it was Ran.
Toning can be once again improved, especially the hair.
Besides that, everything is fine. The background is definitely better than the first one ^^
Overall, great job on the neat photoshop work.
Here are some artists that I really admire ^^ I hope you can learn from them =)
