[jemstone]

Just starting it off. I have no time for a full review right now... just this:

Local Hero: You RULE. Thank you! *feels all embarassed and honored and stuff* I'll be sure to let my Harley know about it. We'll get more pictures of us and some other Gotham Villains at the upcoming Westercon in Seattle. Wheeee! http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/smile.gif

you love me, dont...:nice looking. that is a creepy smile. nice work on harley's costume. joker's hair is a touch patchy. nice details, the wallpaper, framed pic, etc.

blink: the changed hue for the flesh mutes out the overall tones. try bringing out the purple a little more.

spider girl: nice lighting. i like the way you matched up the light color with the acutal lighting in the image. the mask looks good, i haven't tried a full mask on a character, i'll have to try that down the road sometime. nice work. nice job on thinking about the base pic and changing it so that she is now crawling up the wall instead of laying down.

speedball: clean up your edges.

pc hericane: interesting. i'd say more but i'm not a paint expert. the legs seems to lose some distinction as they get closer to the bottom.

marvel girl: popular model. anyway....a little painty. you've got the concept down, just a few more layers and a little lighting and shading and that costume would look less painty and more real.

ragin statham: nice blending of the face and body. it all looks like it was part of the image. one glow covers the hand, the other goes around it. nice job on the hair. go the extra mile, throw down a few charged cards on the image.

iron fist: cool looking. nice muscalature. no complaints.

ultimate actor: too cool! i totally agree, but homer is already the hulk, that was a great episode.

mantle: mantle looks flat. the lack of a casted shadow really gives that look as well as the lack of lighting and shadow on the character. i like the textured look, really nice. the sentinel hand is a nice touch, the reflection map really makes that look like metal. nice danger room.

dream in painter: very dark and moody, i like it. i know your painter frustrations, i tried it for a while, it's different. trust me the more you use the app and become familiar with it your work will get better. this is really good looking for such an early work.

bunny: mmmmmmmmmmm......laura prepon. much cleaner hair. the edges are sharper and clean. overall much better. maybe go more subtle on the shadows, but i have a problem with that so i know it's difficult. much improved work.

empire magazine: nice layout! i think you spelled gyllenhaal wrong though. the bottom of mcfadden's face seems a touch too dark. ironically this is the exact kind of project i have my students do for a grade, you get an A.

dark angel: do you think he works out? nice looking. i like the coloring, very dark but the definition is there. good work.

captian marvel: not bad for a first manip. maybe do some lighting and shading on the costume.

busting hulk: cool. i like the lighting on the pants, you can really see the quads pop. no real complaints, nice work.

heh.. i'm sure Jem will be pleased to hear his hair is a bit patchy... I thought he seemed to have a fine head of hair in the pic he posted of himself as the Joker and a friend as Harley http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/tongue.gif

Many thanks again to LocalHero. Dude, you rule. http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/smile.gif

As far as the hair: Well, it's Spikerz Green Hair Glue and some flourescent green hair spray. Harley made her costume by hand, and I bought the Zoot Suit off the rack, believe it or not. http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/smile.gif

Nice touches of highlighting on the Harley suit, btw. And the flower makes me chuckle. http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/smile.gif

Thanks for the complement on the Danger Room... you'll be seeing it again!
I wasn't sure how to do lighting, and figured the Lighting in the Danger Room would be full lighting, like basically no shadow... maybe it doesn't work that way. Maybe the light is absorbed by his coating... yeah, that's it!

Next time I'll put more into that. Thanks for the review!

Blink by jazzler46:
Looks nice but nothing too grand about it.

I want to redo this one, I just dont like how it looks any more, also I want to add a reflection of spidey taking her picture so the boarder makes more sense.

Yes, Homer, Homer Simpson he the greatest man in history, from the town of Springfield hes about to hit a chessnut tree. Great Job.

Belated Uncommonx: Mantle by swingerbone:
Yeah Mantle looks flat, but awesome job on that hand looks great. So does the rest besides the flatness but the hand stands out as the best part of the pic to me.

Dream In Painter by StrangeFish:
Looks good. My know how of painter is very small so I dont know how hard this was, but the thought of doing anything on the computer with out layers, is frightening. http://www.comics2film.com/UBB/eek.gif

Great improvement, the shadows are a bit strong and it has a very plastic look to the shirt but you might have ment that, still a great improvement.
