Description I like comic style. You can exaggerate bodies's forms, buildings perspective, colors and expressions...

This is for you ~MotherBlessing : a steampunk drawing. OK, perhaps it's just slighly steampunk. But I would like to bring something of myself in this little universe. I hope you like it.

This. Is. So creative. : O

And so detailed. I feel like I could find something new about it every time I look at it. How long did it take you to draw it? Did you use a lot of references?

The girl's arm is bitchin. The buildings are so well-drawn. The outfits are creative, the people are well drawn, and the perspective is awesome. I think the perspective is possibly my favorite thing about the picture. Or maybe the blimp. For some reason I really like the blimp. I think it's a great part of the composition, and my eye is really drawn to it. I'm not sure if it's rational, but I love that blimp. Oh, but anyway, I totally get what you mean about how you can exaggerate buildings perspective when you do comic style, and you totally pulled it off. I'm kinda in awe.

The composition of the lineart is fantastic. I really, really love it. I think the perspective and the balance in the picture are great. But when you add in the color...I'm not sure I'm really a fan of the way you did it. On one hand, the incomplete coloring is really cool, and there's an interesting way it kind of seems to lead us from the foreground at the bottom of the paper down the street into the background and up toward the top of the paper. But I feel that there could have been a better balance, and more color to add interest to the picture. I don't get why the girl with the steampunk arm is fully colored. I think just coloring some of the lines lightly, giving hints of the color, the way you did with other areas, would have looked better. This way, it just looks like the rest of the picture is unfinished. And I think you could've used some more color on the upper right side to balance things out a bit. Perhaps hinted at some blue and green with the graffiti on the wall?

As a side note, something I just noticed (love how I can keep noticing more things with this picture) is the girl on the lower right's hair. I love the curls and the way you colored it. Just thought I'd mention it. C:

Well, it's a nice drawing, and I spent way too long typing up this critique on it. XD Very cool.

Ah, well, thank you so much for the kind words.
About the colors, well I have not the courage to work a new time on this deviation, sorry. I'm a busy person.

I didn't use references.
And about the time, I don't know. XD I don't watch the time when I draw. Perhaps two evenings.
Thanks again !

This is great and really caught my eye. I wanted to leave it in my inbox until i had time really look at it. I love the colours, i also love the way you have colour part of it, but leave some of it blank, but because of the paper texture is not pure white, it works well.

I love the steampunk style of it is as well, it is very cool! And a really good job with all the buildings and the perspective. It looks very cool!

I think it is the best way to get seen sadly, i have noticed that works get very little attention unless you do i think that is also a double edged sword.
