[Gigan]

I really adore how we all seem to hold these universal interpretations of the two different Gigan personalities. Love how you rendered the shapes on the Final Wars design!

[fish]

Immaculate perspective on this one! The hook through the head is such a nice touch, I love that brand of understated humor.

[HULK SMASH]

Awesome. Really nails the classic look, in both the inks and the colors.

[THE LAST ARCANA: The Barbaroi]

This goes hard. I really think a lot of creature designs find their silhouettes in the joints and how everything fits together, and this guy is rock solid through and through.

[Poms of Power]

This is an absolutely gorgeous character design. The way you managed to interpret roots and leaves into her hair is so imaginative!

Edit: Waah, haven't played Hades yet, makes sense I didn't recognize it! Regardless, I think I find your color choices and proportions more interesting than the official design lol

Dieselbrain responds:

oh it's not my own design! this is fanart of Eurydice from Hades!

[The monument to all your sins]

Genuinely unnerving. Love how sickly the atmosphere trailing behind him looks.

[ARCHBIRD]

I keep coming back to this. Seriously inventive combination of shapes, slick as all hell

[sleeping beauty]

Amazing use of symmetry! Can't imagine what went into the color choices within her hair.

sylvrn responds:

Thank you! I actually used a nifty trick for the hair colours—I sketched it out, put the base brown down, then used a colour-jittery sparkle brush I made on a divide layer to get some neat colour variation, then merged the layers and painted from there! I also made a brush that just drags the colour you touch, so that I wouldn't have to use the eyedropper tool (which can get tedious on procreate) ( ˙꒳​˙ )

[Comm 3/3 Q4 2023]

Really impressed by the composition of this, interesting movement across the frame for a pinup.

rosiki responds:

Thank u sm!!!

[HOPELESS]

Great expression here, that's terror if I've ever seen it.
