Thanks for waiting for all these to load.

They actually loaded pretty quickly! *smile* Ok, here we go... On the first one, your proportions seem a little off. And that really dark shadow amidst all the light on the chest is a little distracting. Stark contrast on the figure, unless it's under very contrasting lighting (which this figure is not), can break a picture. Also, the magic hat painting has some proportion issues in the chin area. It's way too big. The paintings i think besides that one, are handled pretty well, though it looks as though you may be using black or brown in some of your shadows. muted greens and purples tend to mix well with skin color to make good shadows that make the face feel warm and fleshy, and not so much dirty like the black or brown does. If you don't use black and i'm losing my mind, then i apologize. :^^: Anywho, i do like what you've got, keep it up, and watch your proportions (just on those two i mentioned, other than that these seem pretty good proportion wise).

Thanks for posting. Nice work. I think the color figure drawn from the back is the most successful...I like how you let the lines just be lines in that one and your great use of complementary colors. Also there is a good sense of the skeleton in that one and I like that you didn't become partially involved in defining the background like some of the others.
