Description Happy Birthday Carmen, hope you like it!

All characters copyright to her.

Also, because I like the cartoony look of the unshaded version: [link]

And finally, many thanks to *dodger-d and ~T-K- for helping me on this.

Edit:

Thanks so much for suggesting and for featuring this! I was all like "Dude, why are suddenly all these people faving this"? and then I saw some guys complaint about a DD and thought "whu? that's the first time I received a comment that was meant to go somewhere else" but then slowly realized what had actually happened! Luv ya both!

This amuses me, and I'm not sure why. It's just...I like it. A lot. The concept is great. Looks like it could be outta a Saturday morning cartoon show.

HAHA! Gave me a good chuckle, you did. Even now as a teenager I love to put on that silly little crown and order my Freshmen servants to tie my shoelaces. XD

This is a very well deserved DD. I love the cartoony style of yours and the expressions are PRICELESS! Not to mention it must've been a paint to write the words on the window backwards. =3

Huzzah! Congratulations^^ I think it's awesome when DD is given based more on the thought and concept behind a piece than the artistic aspect (which is also really nice here). I like this a heckuva lot more than a lot of DDs that are given out.

very nice, I like all the little details on the table and behind the window
the guy right behind the window looks a bit flat, though.

simondrawsstuff In reply to AWdeV [2007-08-06 23:00:23 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.

Do you have any clue on what makes the guy behind the window look flat? I dunno, I'm looking at it and I can't really figure it out - sometimes you just can't spot something until someone points it out.

AWdeV In reply to simondrawsstuff [2007-08-07 14:31:26 +0000 UTC]

maybe it's the one-dimensional view of the face?

Mutants Anonyumous.

Well, the buildings need a little work. Perhaps some weathering, etc. And the man behind the window looks a bit odd. The salad dog's face looks a little odd. Just to fit in with the cartoony feel, emphasize her eyebrows. Also, I would have thought it'd be rather tricky to stand up at a point like that. Oh well.

Eat like a king, not like a clown.

simondrawsstuff In reply to lazarusmumble [2007-08-06 22:58:12 +0000 UTC]

Eat like a king, not like a clown - wear a crown.....?

Mm, I was debating with myself over whether the standing up pose was actually possible and if I should have let him stand on the table or the seat (the original sketch was a mix between the two), but I decided not to, simply to make the picture more condensed, and to not move away the two characters faces too far from each other... I think if I'd have moved the character up more, looking at the picture you wouldn't have realised why salad girl is embarassed as quickly.

I agree about the weathering, that would have increased the look quite drastically. I need to practice drawing buildings A LOT more.

About emphazising salad girl's eyebrows, I guess you're right. I usually draw eyebrows, but I left them out this time because all the characters had their hair covering them quite a lot. I dunno, I guess I should try and see how it would come out.

Thanks a bunch for your comment. Really appreciated.

The dinosaur still in the plastic packaging makes the picture. I love the whole thing--especially that she's having a salad so you know she's already not into the whole fast food thing and now he's being weird. Did I say weird? I meant cool. Totally cool.

simondrawsstuff In reply to jdphoenix32 [2007-08-06 22:47:45 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Indeed, why bother with a dinosaur toy if you can have royalty?
Yeah, I thought giving her just a salad would show that she was already a bit uncomfortable being at the fast food place, although I originally did it because the character just seems like a very serious person and rather concerned about her health...

I agree with many others, you handle that criticism extremely well and in a very professional and mature matter.

That's right folks, I said PROFESSIONAL.

Kids, you can learn a lot from this fellow.

Now onto the pic, this is hilarious, makes me wonder if maybe you drew this from personal experience.......XD

I think you have some great art skill, hell better than me. DX

At first sight, you may think "Fry-King Leeroy, the XVIIth", by ~omega5ooo, is not the best choice to be featured with a Daily Deviation, but the more you look at it, the more you like it.

Personally, At first sight, I DID think this was a great choice for a DD! <3 Hahah I could totally see that moment happening. Great job! I love the guy by the windows expression! A favorite for sure!

but I was very put off by the description on the feature. In particular the line "And you don't need to have awesome artistic skills" because I feel you do have awesome artistic skills. Keep up being so awesome! And I have to say you handled the crit for this being a dd incredibly well. I would have been like *snaps* and *yells a lot* lol

It was just to prevent people complaining for the feature, as in fact happened some comments before, but not because I didn't like this at first sight I don't tend to feature pictures I don't like, lol
