    Irrenoid - My Music

    This was a very nice album! The first three tracks feel wistful and melancholy, while the latter three are more heavy and aggressive. I love your experimentation with style and genre, and as advertised, this whole EP contains a little bit of everything! I will say though that I felt some of the...

    D_What's would-be art thread :|

    These paintings are absolutely incredible! I love the environments, the colors, the texture on each Pokemon's fur and feathers, the clouds, the grass, the water... I can't say enough good about these. I also love the definition of the musculature on Mewtwo, which makes it look all the more...

    Glad to hear it! Can't wait to see what else you come up with. I also always love a good chiptune cover - this one's great!

    broterra's doodles :]

    Aipom has appeared in this thread three times already, and every time it brings me even more joy. Love your doodle-y, loose art style, keep it up!

    Irrenoid - My Music

    I'm so glad you're back to making music! I just finished listening to Into the Night Sun, and it definitely has a melancholy vibe to it that's still really enjoyable to listen to. Fallen Kingdom might be a little intense for me, but I still respect the experimentation and effort you put into the...

    Hey ausma! This probably overlaps with Magnum's first question, but do you have any advice for designing original characters? Your designs are always so interesting, and I'd love to get a little more insight into your process for coming up with them.

    I... have no idea how to answer this. Is this a reference to something? Please have your chalk face checked out by a doctor. Gen 4 has so many great Pokemon designs that it's hard to narrow them down! I love most of the evolutions they added to previous mons, but some of my favorites are...

     Smeargle's Studio Arterviews [Kiwi- post #91]

    It can be hard to critique others’ artwork, often because I’ll have an immediate response of “I like this art” or “I don’t like this art”, and I can’t exactly identify why I feel that way. To give a useful critique, though, you need to be able to state specifically why you feel the way you do...

    Thanks for the question! I think my favorite piece of artwork that I’ve made for Smogon was the Shinto Ruin Serpents logo that I made for Shiloh last year. At the time, it had been 4 or 5 years since the last time I had made a proper logo. I had done some practice with logo design in that time...

    ausma's artistic accolades

    You've done so much more artwork since the last time I saw an update from you! Love your Pokemon pieces, the artfight pieces, and the doodles you included here too; I'm sure you already know how much I like your thread banners from my comments on your last thread, too. On a technical note...

    ESM does Art Stuff

    Love this Ina piece! I can tell you were really ambitious with it, and I think it turned out really well! Since you asked for feedback, I've got a couple suggestions to improve it even more: I think you could emphasize the contrast more. This is already a dark scene, with the magic circle...

    I'm ever so slightly concerned about why you drew a chicken in a bikini... but the rendering sure is on point. Love the shading and the texture you were able to convey on it. The rest of your pieces are very nice as well!

     Smeargle's Summer Illustration Event!

    Hello again all! So we have a small number of people who haven't been able to get their projects in yet, so to accommodate for that, we've decided to grant a small extension! We're giving everyone an extra 7 days to finish their illustrations and submit them, but after that, we'll definitely be...
