The voya-nui one was really awesome. It looks awesome.However, the mata-nui one is very meh. I couldn't tell if it were mata-nui if you didn't state that it was mata-nui.Nice medium though. Very original.

Judging by the stuff shown on the Fox engine, the PS3 and 360 are still going to be around for a while. Whether or not that's a good thing, it gives the WiiU some sort of chance.

Ahaha, that is awesome. Looks very Atari 2600-ish. I still have yet to play a retro early 80's late 70's game.I love it.

Pre-ordering.I'm a fanboy. Sue me.

I love this art style, and you've done an epic job with shading. Proper shading is the difference between a good picture and a great picture, and while your picture has the shading of nailed perfectly, there's some things preventing it from being great.First, there some issues with the proportions. As sumi said earlier, his right (our left) ball joints are too big. I know that hyperbolic proportions with a more cartoony image are usually fine, but they're just a tad to big. Same with his right hand, it's a tad too small. His back leg is also a bit too small. It, by itself, looks fine, but due to the fact that his left arm isn't scaled down as much makes it look awkward. However, the biggest concern with proportions are with his front leg and front foot. It's hard to explain, but his front leg is tilted towards you, while his front foot is tilted away, which would result in quite the uncomfortable position. Despite what some others have said, I actually like the stylized hau. It seems odd not having tahu holding his lava sword, but it's probably because I'm too used to it.I'm not going to go into too much detail into the lava because it everyone has summed it up very well. I think you've done an ok job in terms of colours and shape, but I think the lines are too bold. Infact, almost distractingly bold. Some thinner lines might have made it look better. I think the rock could have had some better shading as well (compared to the brilliant shading you've done with Tahu). More than the perspective, this is probably the weakest part of the image. The background could have also been done with a little bit more detail, but it's not very noticable.Overall, a very nostalgic image for sure. You've managed to capture the true spirit of BIONICLE's most iconic character. The detail you've put into the character is outstanding, and the shading is done brilliantly. This is possibly one of the best shadings I've not only seen here, but everywhere. You should draw a comic.8/10Background and proportions almost blew it, shading and detail saved it.

Bionicle cosplay? That's awesome. I'd love to see more.I'm not used to reviewing this sort of thing, so my opinon is as follows: awesome. Like taka said, you should try and post some super-detailed pics so we can appreciate it properly.Also, the two Johnny Thunder links link to the same thing.

GTA Lego? Heck yeah.I am SO PUMPED for the WiiU

You know what's weird? In some strange way, I actually really like this picture in some sort of weird, outlandish manner. In most of my reviews, I'd usually bash something like this, but there's something about it. I theorize it's due the fact that the shading isn't anti-aliased, but the image is saved as a jpeg, so it's sort of an artificial anti-alias, which somehow looks soothing.That, or I'm a sucker for that shade of yellow.Good job then.

Hahaha. Reminds me of those old emo-vakama jokes. I actually laughed at that.Well done. You're an awesome artist as well. The third panel is my favourite; Vakama's degraded look combined with Matau's prestigious expression make me laugh.Big ups!

I like the stylisation of the image along with the awesome detail. The overall body design is pretty good too. Some smaller problems include some perspective things, such as how the torso and legs are slightly imperfect and the angle the torso is facing is off, as well as the fact that the mask looks a little bit "flat". Most of these things get better with practice, however. The biggest problem is the lack of shading. With the intricacy of the little doo-dads, it's almost insulting that there's very little shading. Due to the fact that the image is almost cartoony, even a little bit of shading would have made the difference between a good picture and a great picture. Overall, it's a good picture. I like it, it would look awesome animated, but the main concern is the lack of shading. 7.5/10

Was your avatar a personalised one or a generic one? I'll check what I have, but if it's personalised, you're out of luck.

That's extremely painful. My condolences to you and your family. Rest in peace.

.........I am speechless.Oh my lord.

Awwwww yeaaaaa

While I really find the architecture sets cool, I always find them waay too pricey.

I love you :wacko:

Ahh so many. I'll try to review all of these if I get more time, but for now, I'll just review the first picture:I love the design of the character. As you said before, it gives a prehistoric feeling, which is great. I love the choice of colours as well as the smudged effect you had created. It's really cool looking. Same with the pose. Sort of a "stay back, fiend" sort of thing. The only improvements I would suggest is to modify the left leg slightly. Something about the position of the shin and the foot seem a bit uncomfortable. I can't really explain what's wrong with it, but try looking at it again. That, and the eye seems to be a little high up. The mask looks fine, but the placement of it is off. I haven't really followed the Bionicle story, but the character seems to be an evil minion. I'm not sure if I want to root for her.Now to the fiery orb thing. Those arm things look awesome. I really like them. The colours fit extraordinarily well together. However the orb itself isn't great. The random bright red and white seem a bit odd when placed next to the maroon and black. Also, the circumference of the orb is too smooth looking. That's not the right adjective, but it's sort if you made a circle in photoshop and then filled it with red. I should say that the arms don't really seem to transition well from the circle. It's too clean looking, which seems to contrast the prehistoric effect.Before I wrap this up, let's talk about the elephant in the room: the background, or lack thereof. Why isn't there a background? This picture NEEDS a background. I mean, the lack of one is really distracting and really detracts from the picture. When I first looked at the picture, I didn't like it very much until I stared at it for a a little while. The lack of a background looks extremely unprofessional and it really saddens me that there isn't any. Even a very simple black background with would still be more sufficient! And the fact that you had categorised the image as finished surprises me heavily. In my opinion, this picture is unfinished. Please add a background. Just something... anything! It's such an awesome picture otherwise.6/10The score would be much higher with a background. I'm really sad that I had to give you that rating.If you were to add a background, maybe rocky wall or papyrus would look cool; it would seem like the picture was painted by cavemen/cavematoran. If you're looking for inspiration, google "Skyward Sword Opening Video". The art style seems to have similarities as the one shown there.

I didn't know what Bionicle/Lego thing this was referencing, but apparently it's ninjago sooo...To be completely honest, it's not amazing. I hope I don't come off as too mean and I hope I don't offend you, but here's my two cents:First, the background. I'm not sure what it's supposed to be (some space-y thing?) but it looks ugly. It's partly due to the fact that purple, yellow and black don't go amazingly well with each other, but it's mainly because the circle things seem to have a smooth gradient tecnhique applied while the dragon itself pixelated. The contrast does not work. Maybe if the gradients were shaded manually?Now to the dragon. I actually find it slightly creepy... I'll explain in a bit. The first thing I noticed was the massive eye. It's too big. Infact, it makes it look cute rather than majestic. I like the shape of the eye, but it's far too large. Maybe I'm crazy, but it really bothers me. Secondly, the position of the neck. It's extremely uncomfortable. The dragon has managed to turn it's head 180 degrees. It's the mixture of that massive eye as well as the pose that reminisces the exorcist. The dragon seems to have been drawn with a mouse, so I'm not going to complain too much about the shaky lines. Apart from the neck up, the body itself looks good (yes, I noticed what I just wrote). What might have made the picture better is if it had some shading. I know you've done a little bit of basic shading around the edges, which is a plus, but why stop there? Most of the picture is just one shade of blue with some very subtle shading. Overall, not amazing.Now, I am really, really, really, really sorry for doing this, but the eye bothered me so much that during this review, I was tempted just to quickly photoshop the picture to see if a smaller eye looks any better. I know it's really rude and shallow to edit an artist's work, and I feel like a total #####, but here goes:It still doesn't look amazing, but I think the smaller eye makes a difference. It looks waaay less creepy now. If you were to remake the picture, maybe you could experiment with the size and the positioning of the eye? I'd really be excited to see what you'd come up with.3/10It would be slightly higher (possibly a 5 or 6) if it weren't for the eye and neck. Maybe I'm being to critical, but it just ruined the picture for me.Don't let my review and poor score let you down. I know I'm sounding harsh, but please use this as an opportunity to improve. I look forward to see what you bring next. And again, I apologise for editing your picture. It was mean, but I just had to know.

This is just getting creepier and creepier. Awesome. Keep it up Maph.
