[Boris]

I think your art is really nice, and your color choices are great. The shading and lighting look good as well.

[Happy Birthday Team Fortress!]

Absolutely amazing scene! It’s great to see how Team Fortress 2 has brought so much joy and wonderful inspiration for creativity. It is an excellent game, and your art is super awesome!

@TomaFokio, what is your favourite advice on creating art?

@TomaFokio, what do you think about Team Fortress 2?

TomaFokio responds:

Thankuuu!
1. You can try to look up to the artists you like (who really draw well). And don't give up your work on art halfway through, because you'll regret it later
2. The game itself is great! The community is also quite creative and inspiring! (despite the MANY disputes within the community)

[Mecha Mayhem Collab]

Wow, wow, wow—outstanding Collab! The silhouettes burst with character and attitude. You are all very skilled artists with unique personalities, and you communicate them so well.

@fish-flop, @GuyWhoCanDraw, @IWillEndYou, @Wyat-ttt, what habits as artists are you proud to have developed?

fish-flop responds:

Thanks for the kind words! Haha, most of my art habits are bad ones that make me less efficient, overall. However, I do really enjoy my process for inks/linework. Clip Studio has a lot of cool options for vector linework that I find really helpful, since I like to keep my lines crisp and sharp.

[My new favorite art]

Awesome scene! The shading is amazing, and the colors are bright!

@Porkin98, why would you say it took too long? How long did it actually take to create your art piece, and what elements make it your favorite?

@Porkin98, are there any artists whose work inspires you? Why are you inspired by them, and what qualities do you enjoy in their work?

Porkin98 responds:

It took 22 hours for the art to be finished, this is my art because it is the one where I left my comfort zone the most by trying to create a story with the drawing.
The artists that inspire me the most were bengus, Bacun and Guilherme Freitas, everyone's art is amazing, vibrant colors, incredible compositions and much more.

Your result is of superb quality. I didn’t know that acrylics on cardboard could produce such rich results. I have a sense of adventure through your piece.

@drachenmagier, how did you decide to paint with acrylics on cardboard?

drachenmagier responds:

Well, the acrylics are there. The cardboard is there. It seems logical to put those together. d: Aside from that, acrylics are really versatile and you can imitate a lot of effects done mostly known from digital media. :) Or I should probably say, digital media can imitate acrylics. :D

And thank you!

[Pixel Art from 2023]

I'm incredibly impressed by the richness and depth in your pieces. Your palettes are a sight to behold—truly excellent. My favorite is the one with the castle. The blue is so powerful, and the way the mountains recede into the background perspective is great. It’s a superb composition with great detail and sophisticated shape language.

@SlowPumpkins, why do you feel the need to draw more someday? Is there a specific reason you think you aren’t drawing as much as you would like?

@SlowPumpkins, you are a very skilled artist. Were there any points where you struggled with learning art concepts? How did you eventually overcome those challenges?

SlowPumpkins responds:

thank you so much! and about the castle artwork I only give my vision since it's based on a album cover, the original painting was done by a famous metal cover artist named kristian wahlin, he is a master!

and about the questions, I don't want to overwork anymore but I always have this feeling that I didn't do enough for the day. If I didn't have to worry about money I'll probably draw more

[An underwater encounter]

Outstanding composition! The colors are rich, and the shape language is amazing. How did you structure your scene? Incredibly beautiful, and the way you've rendered the sky is very dynamic.

@hbystuff, how did you become interested in creating pixel art?

@hbystuff, what do you think about Pokémon?

[LIV SHORT OUT!]

Strong colors, good texture, and shading are all well-executed. The hands are very well stylized with straight lines, and the line weight is excellent. I also noticed the background with the ghostly purple dark figures. I’ve seen the animation "PxAY OFF! - ANIMATED FILM," which is incredibly impressive—your storyboards are excellent.

@IbraH-Toonz, where did you learn to storyboard?

@IbraH-Toonz, how did you get involved in the project?

@IbraH-Toonz, what were the biggest struggles and challenges you faced, and what skills did you utilize to complete your tasks? Also, is there a specific reason for the blue lines used in the composition? I haven't seen that in storyboards before.

[Just Another Stupid Dance Song TFC]

Very awesome team!

[2024 MUSIC GAJINKA COLLAB]

Super awesome characters inspired by excellent music!
