What a beautiful creature and design! I really like the shapes and the silhouette, as well as the idea of the creature having more than one heads or mouths!

I also really like the composition of the piece! You used the pallet really well!

Great Job!  

@Yavor984: Thanks a lot for the kind words!  

@Yavor984: Thanks a lot for the kind words! I appreciate it!

I also really appreciate the constructive critique! I agree I could for should add something like that to the tree's leaves to make it look even better!

As for a Autumn variant I hadn't actually consider it before. But I think it would for sure be cool to try and make one!

Thanks a lot for the kind comment!  

@Yavor984: I agree, I wouldn't wear it either! Dragons are awesome! 

Regardless thanks a lot for the kind words!  

Wow really beautiful scene! I really like the feel that it gives!

You're character looks really awesome and cool! I really like his design and his staff!

The scenery also looks amazing! I really like all of the different trees and mountains and clouds they look really good!

For critique, I do have some pointers that I think would make the scene feel a little more alive! Firstly I would suggest pushing the shadows a little more on the top of the trunks, (where the leaves meet the trunk) reason being that generally most of the trunk up there, is going to be covered by the leaves so there isn't much light flowing to it, thus I think it should be a little darker than the rest of trunk!.

Also I would suggest maybing adding a little more things to the mountains! Like maybe some more snow on the right one, and maybe some trees or floor vegation to the left one. Just to have them feel a little less empty!

Other than that I think your piece looks amazing! Great Job!  

And I hope you have a wonderful summer yourself!   

What a beautiful piece! The glass (and eveything inside it) is masterfully rendered! I really like all of the colors and the composition.

The way you rendered the glass is still something so insane to me! A piece I should study for sure!

Awesome work!  

What a beautiful scene! This is another one of my favorite pieces of yours! The coloring, forms and clusters are on another level (as always). I particularly like the shading and coloring on the rocks, it is some of the best I ever seen and I think it looks beautiful!

As for the animation, I think it is superb. Everything is incredible well animated. I really like the lava, and how it moves. I can see this taking a ton of time, but in the end I think the result speaks for itself. The animation on the characters is also amazing. The main character is amazingly animated, I really like how the belt swings when he moves.

The little pig is also a great addition and I really like the coin flip animation too.

Though I think that my favorite part, is by far, the throne and the character on it! First of, the smoke animation, is awesome. I really like how you animated stuff such as smoke and liquids you always make the feel sooo smooth! Adding to that, I really like the animation on the specter and the little lava (or maybe power connections) that connect with the orb!

And as always I like the small details and creatures around the scene, such as the little lava lizard on the left corner!  

As for critique I personally don't have any, you are way behond my skill level, so I don't have much to say. Though, I though I would point out that there seems to be some short of light showing up in some of the frames (specifically frames 1, 2 ,3), on the bottom rocks. I personally found this weird as the light has a blue-ish tone, so I am not really sure how it fits in with the scene.

Regardless, amazing work as always and really inspiring! Hope we get to see more!  

What a beautiful scene and design! I really like the perspectice you chose for this!

The rendering is superb, you did an amazing job with the color pallet! Managing to portray a lot of different textures (water, fire, soil, electric screens).

I also really like all of the small details around the piece (such as the grocieries and the little cat under the desk!)

Awesome Job!  

Wow what an awesome piece! The colors you choce for this work really well together, I really like the contrast the dark greys and the blues create!

The setting is also amazing! I love the design of the whole room and I really like the small details such as the banners, the stone engravings (the symbols) as well as the clouds and the night sky outside the window, they look amazing!

You made me wonder, is this some short of mockup, or even a scene for a game?

Regardless, amazing work! Would love to some more!  

Really beautiful piece! I loved the idea from the start and I am really glad to see that you made it before the deadline!

A highlight for me is also the water effects you made! They are portrayed amazingly well!

Great Job!  

Really nice! I really like the design of it, and it was for sure an amazing idea! I also really like the spikes in the front as well as the roof and it's decoration.

One small critique I have is that the line work, has some jaggies and doubles at certain places, which I would personally try to avoid. Though I don't think it takes a lot away from the piece!

Regardless, really good work! I like it!  

Really beautiful sprites! I really like the characters desing and all of the cool poses, they looks really nice and dynamic.

The image's color value is also amazing and all of the values have really good contrast and harmony between them!

(Bet the colored version looks even better! )
 

Awesome work!  

Wow it looks awesome! The tree's form and shape is excellent and I really like how full it feels with all of the branches, the dolls and the little details!

The color usage is also superb (as always). I really like the blue-ish back light and the general colors you chose for the piece!
 

As for the animation I don't have words, it is incredible how you have managed to animate such a detailed character! I really love all of the details and the voodo dolls swinging around with the branches and the leaves, it looks awesome.

Though, upon a more detailed inspection of the piece, I have found 2 things that I personally don't really like that much :

First one is the little slug that the character spits out. I really like the animation on it but I feel that it is a little hard to read especially on the transperent background! I believe that it would have benefited from a little texturing.

Secondly, I have observed some kind of jitter (not sure if this is the right term for it) in frames 22, 24 and 26 where the face of the character kind of moves to the right and changes it's expression a little bit, but the rest of the body doesn't follow it. I personally feel that, that creates some sort of a lag or jitter. Which I am not really fond of.

Regardless, this is another piece of yours really really like! It is always awesome to look and observe one of your pieces, and it really inspires me!  

Gawrone: I am really sorry for the inconvenience. I have fixed it now and the canvas is a excactly 150x150.

Apologies! 

Really nice! I really like the rendering on it and the colors you picked for the piece! The idea is also really unique and really funny! 

I do have a small critique though, which is that the eye doesn't read all that well from a distance! Though I totally get it, taking into account the pallet limitations! Regardless I don't think it particularly takes away from the piece!

Amazing job!  

Amazing work! I love the colors you chose for the scene and the way you blend between them is just incredible!

The character reads incredibly well and the lighting is on point everywhere you look! You did an amazing job with this!

Superb work!  

(PS: I wonder what the number 138 implies? Maybe some secret refrence?  

Amazing work! The colors choices here are wonderful and I really like the subtle lighting effect! I it looks amazing and I am really impressed by it!

The character's pose is also a really strong highlight for me as I really like how dynamic it is!

I also love the starting transition and how you ease in to all of the colors, going from white slowly toward the character's main color scheme, it is masterfully done!

Though one thing that I am a personally a little confused about is the color count, I personally believe that it is way to high! Of course your understanding of color is way better than mine but still I wanted to mention it as I did went and anylized certain parts of the image and found some example were there was a bunch of colors really similar to each other.

One strong example of this is in the font where the yellow meets the white, where there are 6 different colors that compose the transition!

So I was wondering, was each and every color handpicked for this piece, or was there any use of software tools to create certain effects?

(Though to be honest, I think that it would have been totally possible for every color to be handpicked as I believe that software tools, such as the blur tool, create way worse color transitions than those dipicted in the image, and taking into account how skilled you are, this would have been definitely possible to do!)

(I also did read the discription and saw the mention of the doom pallet, but I was not really familiar with it, so I though I might ask. I hope you don't find my question offensive, as no offense is meant!)

Another thing I wanted to point out, is a line that starts from the top part of the right shoulder, that seems to go towards the chest. I found it a little distracting and didin't really understand it's purpose, but that might just be me!

Regardless, awesome work as always, and another piece for me to study!  

Beautiful piece! I really love the colors you chose for it, they work incredible well together! It gives the piece this sense of magic and wonder, it is amazing!

The animations and the lighting are also superb, and extremly well rendered!

I pleasure to look at, you did an amazing job!  

One of my favorite pieces! I have looked at it more times than I can count and still, it always amazes me even more!

I love the way you used to color pallet here, the colors are vibrant and portray the forest perfectly! I really like how you dicrease the color count and lean towards more of a darker and blue-ish tone going towards the back of the piece, focusing more on the silhouettes, it looks beautiful!

I also really like the character designs! Your designs are always amazing and this is no exception! (Seeing Borovick again is really really nice, and he really fits well into the enviroment, making some awesome contrast!)

The details of the piece are also amazing! I love all of the stone faces scuttered throughout the piece and the little creatures that live there! (Some of my favorites are the little creatures under the tree (the ones with the green eyes) I really like how mysterious they feel and how they are "spying" / watching the main character from a distance)

I would also like to say that while I do think the piece is awesome, there are some single pixel misplecements scuttered throughout, but nothing really to noticable and it doesn't take away from the majesty of the piece!

I love your work man, you always inspire me!. I hope we get to see even more of your work! (I know there are a lot more pieces posted since this one, but still ... =) )  

Amazing backgrounds! I really love each and every single one of them! Their colors are incredible, and the composition of the pieces are top notch!

I really like how every single background is distinct and has a different main color scheme, while still feeling part of the same world (and utilizing the color pallet to the max!).

I also really like the way you portarayed the stars and the nebula, they look awesome and are incredibly well composed! (Really like the way the you blend the colors of it, even if the colors are a lot different in terms of value and saturation!)

Another piece I should study in depth for sure! You're work is awesome! Really inspirational!  

Beautiful piece! Love the style you went for, with this one! I really like all of the character designs with the dialog and health bars! The coloring is also incredible, and the dithered texture is a really nice touch!

Really lovely piece! Great Job!  

Beautiful animations! The really have that punch to them and the character feels really smooth and fluid!

Incredible work!  

Looks amazing! I really like the way you made the foliage, it is really unique and different from the foliage I usually see, but it works so well here, I really like it!

I also really love the high saturation of the images, it really portrays the whimiscal feel of the forest and makes the world feel so nice and colorful.

An amazing view and an awesome piece!  

It is beautiful! The colors you chose for it are awesome, and they really show the peaceful and relaxing nature of the scene! The view looks nice and cozy and the little house really makes it feel even better!

Amazing work! You made me want to go there too!  

Very beautiful scene! I love the way you have portrayed the light and the colors you chose for it are beautiful!

Amazing work!
