In all honesty for a exaggerated fan-art it's passable, but to give it more edge. I recommend you have a more firmer affirmation for real anatomy and composition. The background is supposed to complement the image, and the red smudged fire really clashes with the dark blue Vegeta focus.

@Hiryu, you simply copy from Skull Girls and have only just recently started listening to others. Your opinion is void of real validity. Let the reviewers review.

Her pose much like your other submissions is a posed shot facing the viewer which is getting repetitive and is sort of showing lack of creativity. It all begins with gestures, movement adds both vitality and intrigue. I'm talking about REAL movements like: kicks, swan dives, pirouettes, and cartwheels. Try something new.

As for the piece being of discussion on the Art forum, you decided once again to disregard advice and never bothered to even ATTEMPT to step out of you comfort zone. The shading is muddy and the background is trying to support the image but in reality ruins it even further. A background complements the subject, never makes the subject.

It looks very nice, and hey I found this tutorial that looks awfully familiar, did you create this tutorial?

It wasn't that one.

Phenomenal blending! Do you have your own website or speed paint videos? I'd love to learn your hyper realistic technique.

JoshSummana responds:

Not really :S only a deviantart I am afraid :S. If you search 'JoshSummana Devianatart' I will come up :)
As for the technique.. its just practice :S I used to ask the same thing all the time. But it literally just is practice, trial and error lol.

Her left arm looks horribly broken and the entire composition is simply uninteresting.

You seem to have that typical mentality of young anime artists, you shade areas because you believe that's what "needs" to be shaded without taking into consideration the strength and angle of the light source. Interesting choice in her outfit, but with her being an anatomical mess, it just seems off.

thank you i appreciate it ill work on my anatomy and shading .

I see that many of your reviews revolve around making your own content from scratch, and here we have Uncle Sam.

I should have added more detail in teh description. It was a Flyer, for work. They wanted uncle sam, which I could have scrapped up with vectors, but I had a time limit - and they wanted a retro feel. So - the wanted the real deal.

Also the eagle was scratch, and the arrow vector was scratch. - and the reviews ive left for people needing to draw from scratch - were to the ONE individual, who made a arial text, with a blue traced ...texture? behind it - and he wanted real advice. - Ive also drawn from scratch on many other things. Lol. Silly.

I love your coloring technique, the girl however on the right seems to be in an awkward position with her bow. It just seems unnatural after releasing all that force that she'd be almost completely vertical.

Though you have more experience than me so in actually creating art so I might be tad off in my assertion.

It needs more soft shadows and variation in skin tones. This type of coloring is good for animation but not so much for single pieces. It makes it seem very bland, but the proportions seem alright; her right hand seems a little off, so generally a decent piece.

Such detail with the face and hair, but not the rest of the body. You used such hard shadows for her torso that it seems too flat.

I come back here sometimes....
