So, I made a map thing. Well, four possible variations of a map thing. Not sure which one I prefer just yet.

The colors of the landmass are best by a good margin in the last version, but the clouds are in the way. They do look pretty nice over the ocean, though.

I did an art thingy in around 40 minutes ish ._.
It was for DeviantArt's 16th Birthday.

_{Edit: eeeeee, someone favorited it!!! Sorry for adding this in, so it's in tiny text but I feel so happy!}

Reminds me a lot of the faces in Hotline Miami, probably due to the violently outlined eyes and mouth. A thing i've noticed is that you generally don't need to put a line if there's not some kind of overlap or crease (or possibly a very sharp corner), so clearly this guy's got some SERIOUS cheekbones. :v

Hoh, that's pretty cool! I find myself wondering if i should try that thing too, but frankly i'm not sure what i'd make of it. Oh well, congrats on the fave Tir! c:

also i guess i doodled a thing last night

Spoiler: didney-esque maybe (click to show/hide)

just in case you didn't think i could draw mouths any wider

Can't be arsed to clean it up right now, so enjoy the frivolous display of (lacking) construction. :v

@vastaghen:

..I refuse to believe that these aren't part of some beautiful webcomic/game you're making, vastaghen ;v

And if they aren't, they need to be.

Would help with coding.

Like, seriously, dude, is good art, would make good game.

is that the guts of a randomly-generated skyscraper?

Guts of an apartment building, yeah. I made all the walls, floors, concrete elements and others invisible. Its only 7 storeys, though most of it is out of the screenshot.

Overuse of gradients? Or livening up a style that used too many flat colors?

@_@ I like that. Heeey, I saw that in pencil form too! :3 It looks brilliant! (I like how you made it look 3d with the lighting).

I hope to be at that kind of level one day. So inspiring!

Nah, you used just enough.... it's really aesthetically pleasing. I do have a handful of minor nitpicks, though, if you want them.

The gradient on the left arm of the couch looks off to me... Rather than have it run parallel to the floor, you might try to rotate it so that's it's closer to perpendicular to the light from the window.

The white stroke on your music notes is somewhat distracting. I would either reduce their weight, or increase the resolution of the exported image.

While the radio is probably my favorite component of the image(seriously, it's frikkin' cool), I think that the metal panel on it could be... well, metal-y...er.

The highlights on that girl's eyes are huge.

Hmm... That was not the response I expected at all. I'm really conflicted now, on how I'm going to proceed with this thing.

But - but - perspective! D:

What's off about it? The POV is about level with her torso, so the only thing that looks really off to me is the floor

[Shook]

Hmm, i don't know if there's a nice way to put it, so let me put it like this:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

TOO MANY INTERSECTIONS, ideally all the lines should cross at one point. :I
The horizontal line along the top of the couch was my original bid at a horizon (based on the floor and window on the right), but... Yeah, i think the image speaks for itself (but if you want a better explanation, i shall provide).
THAT BEING SAID, that is overall a very good usage of gradients. My biggest beef here is that the pillows and arm rests of the couch look more like cylinders than rounded boxes, though of course, a sufficiently rounded box seen from the side is pretty much indistinguishable from a cylinder. This could probably also be helped by employing a bit of delicious perspective to it, since it really doesn't take much for our brains to go like "YO THAT HAS DEPTH, IT'S NOT A FLAT THING". You don't have to nail it perfectly outside of really fine art, i don't have the patience for that myself either, but if the lines all converge in roughly the same area(s, if using 2- or 3-point perspective), that's a pretty good start.

edit: also here have a cowboy gecko that i was asked if i could draw
