thanks! and yep, thats mostly what i was going for  i think i wanted it to look like it had an underpainting but im not sure if i accomplished that, im hardly someone who actually paints anyway :P

it's a little over 25%! my way was a bit of a cop-out on thinking too hard about it tbh. your entry does a great job of harmonizing all the colors with the yellow that it truly feels like a part of the piece. and thank you

what a flattering portrait, im appreciating the network of clusters across the side of the face
 
there used to be an award for this sort of thing i think? but i rarely ever saw it granted (victim of circumstance?), i wonder if it still applies in this case

i didnt notice i ended up putting in a different yellow until now (must have mistyped something), no wonder all the other entries' yellows seemed a bit different  i'll fix it shortly but oh boy.

thanks! i started to really feel how pixels tend to matter in those last two. if i claim more artwork from this album cycle id get to 6 covers if i want an even square  to complete most of it, whoops cant count
 
but! im pretty happy with these covers either way and kinda want to do other stuff :P

i try not to speculate but i do consider the songs to be coming from a place of empathy just from the lyrics and the way they sound, so that does track
he seems happier now and that wave has passed, so i hope life continues being good for him


user
berdates @ 4/19/2025 14:46 commented on Kikuo - Kikuo Miku 7

i hope thats not the case! the art is gorgeous and what ive heard is solid, i think more people should give his music a try beyond using a few tracks for shock value :P

neat seeing this on the preview!! your rendition works so well i started looking at his other albums and thought of how hard it would be to represent them in this size :-0

love the screentones and textures, feels really disco in and of itself

the branches are done very well, it also feels whimsical :-) and i love the pink. if i were to critique one thing, the base of the neck seems lost and could use a line along the edge. the rest of the neck is shaded and separates from the background. the lighter part looks 'open' despite the lines running across it - the implied edge is already there, it just needs a bit more help

you know what, looking at the first pass i did to feel the colors out, its funny how much i forgot after a week or so, 
they are in fact, not that close :-P

berdates @ 1/12/2025 21:32 commented on ren-essence SSD
the final product is pretty close to how it started, so i would say the constraint of time got me there. according to the challenge limits i had an extra two colors i could squeeze in, so maybe a blue from the palette would've made it in there? don't know where i was going with that one. but thanks!


user
berdates @ 1/10/2025 06:58 commented on ren-essence SSD

thanks! in my mind the quality is around 'eh, good enough' but surprisingly people seem to actually like this one

i think it looks much better now!

to update artwork on PJ you'd need a different file name for some reason (just adding or deleting one character would be enough), you could try that if you haven't already.

i dont care what anyone says, wario in fishnets rules, keep chasing your muse

my only critique is the chin is kind of getting lost next to the v-cut
