Nice work as usual. Very detailed and nicely put together... but wait, why is that lamp post over the docks? shouldn't it be over the sidewalk? o.O
Also, Kitty on top of a barrel!! ( ' v')/ -yay!

Maybe I will be less freaked out by Emanzi's statement if he posts a picture of himself...
Don't worry, you two kinda look nice together. =D

Kinda douchey thing to do, but at least I got to practice my photoshopping skills a little. ...My apologies to Strangeluv's whatever. =P

I dunno, I think you should keep it simple... get rid of the distorted silhouette on the back and the dot of light on the ground. Also, the words "red dawn" would probably look better if they were colored red. =P

Whoa! Blue overload! ...I think you really need to change the colors a bit, especially that of the words, an overly blue text against a blue background just doesn't look good, what you need is a paler shade of blue or a gray. Also add some green there somewhere or something, try many things until you get a more visually appealing combination.

Way too dark. Like, way, way too dark. Even against the already dark background of this gamepage... Seriously. =/
Edit: I mentioned the gamepage because things tend to look darker against a white bg, and clearer against a black one. So, hum... yeah.
Edit: Now it's too clear for what you had originally intended. xD You need to find a nice in-between.
Edit: Just a tiny bit darker and you're set. =P
Edit: Perfect! :thumbsup:

Cool anime theme songs:
^ Very good song, but the actual show kinda sucks.
Edit: Well, I never watched it all, but what I did see of it... just wasn't for me. xP

@Newblack: Nice. Very creative scribbles, you should try to polish them... My favorite is the scuba-diving octopus.
@SorceressKyrsty: Not bad. I really don't see a problem with the eyes, I think you're good at drawing faces actually, but you still got some trouble with the length and position of legs and arms, and need more practice drawing clothes as well.
@Felix20: Well, I could give you some feedback, but it would be useless because pirate dinos don't NEED arms.
@Oh_no_im_melting: Whoa! Very nice job. It looks really professional, I like the sketchiness of it all and how you still managed for different textures and materials to look realistic enough. My only qualm with it would be that it is way too dark.
@JosephSeraph: Not bad at all, I like the colors and design you use. You have a very distinctive style. Keep it up!
@Bonehead11: Hey, that is really good, especially if you're just starting with digital painting... Like Creation said, it is kind of blurry, so what you need to do is to give more definition to shapes, textures and stuff. You may also need to work at bigger resolutions and to try with other brushes to achieve different kind of effects, because until now it all looks like if it was done with the same brush and a very small scale.
@Creation: Well, to begin with I think you need to take extra care of your lineart, because sometimes is rather messy or just plain jagged, if you aren't too good drawing free-hand you can always try with vectors. For the coloring I think you should stick to solids, I mean trying not to blend them so much; as well as using less contrast. Lastly, don't worry too much if your drawings look like Zelda or Mario, that's just silly.
Here's an example of the direction I think you should take:

Well, I guess 'option 2' would be more like a "DC experience", right? and while I like DC I also have to admit that a game with no fights feels kind of weird, so I'll vote for 'option 1' instead ...Then again, why don't you try with a full action battle system? That would be really cool! ...If you can find one that would let you apply in real time all the previous ideas you had for the battles that is. -_-;
