[Luring in my new friends]

From the delightfully wavy hair, to the apparent indifference to being under water, I very much enjoy this picture. I absolutely love the expression and the madness it conveys.

I get a very dark tone from this image, one that contrasts powerfully against the bright imagery. Was such a tone your intent? It seems it may have been, judging from the title.

Yanimae responds:

By tone, I presume you mean something evil is about to take place in this image? ahaha

It wasn't my intention but with the title, I can see how that comes across as such. It was supposed to be more light-hearted than anything :U

[Skullgirls]

This piece shows potential, but it really doesn't capture the charm of the original character or the excellent style of Alex Ahad. The proportions seem off, as the arms appear longer than the legs. The hat is fairly solid though.

On an unrelated note, I thought the game looks pretty good. I was exited to learn that Cerebella is voiced by Cristina Vee.

[Happy Halloween]

What a waste of candy.

This is very well done, from the lovely outfit design to the sullen background laden with splatters.
Your colors are bold, and are blended very nicely. Everything is so shiny; it's quite the juxtaposition to the background. Anatomy seems pretty solid. The eyes are a little on the large side, making the forehead a bit small.

All in all, the whole piece just feels very solid.

Thank you! oh no, i guess her forehead is a bit small... oops D:

[Sw33t]

I absolutely love the composition of this piece, and of course the colors. Have any more pieces to share?

[red head fairy]

Your art is too much fun. Very stylistically pleasing, and cheerful bright colors.

[Thaumaturge]

Very stylistically pleasing.

The outfit is well designed, and the effects are interesting with nice contrasting colors.
It's simply a charming piece.

[A shock of love]

I see what you did there

I've always adored the Love Shockers outfits, and they look really good in this style.

Also, the pink outline is very nice and lends itself well to the graffiti vibe.

[Shutter]

She seems jovial enough.

This piece has an interesting style that draws me in. I like the way you blended the skin; it looks very natural. The eyes seem like they may be a little over-sized, but that's really a stylistic choice, one that I actually enjoy.

For such a simple design, this character has a lot of "character".

I would like to see more of your work.

[Clown Ghost]

It's tough to be a ghost clown

I really like your line art in this piece; it's pretty solid. But what's even better is your coloring. It still has the wild colors of your other works, but it's not nearly as busy. I also like the outfit you've put together. Nice job.

[The Dance of the Black Death]

The best kind of doctor around

This is an incredible piece of work. It is hard to refute the awesomeness of a plague doctor, and I believe you have managed to portray it perfectly; the arm wrappings are a very nice touch. Additionally, the wood makes this even more of a joy to look at.

That skeleton looks like one jolly fellow.
