What do you think of my art?

[pikabyunn]

Hi, kind of new here.

I've been lurking about the game devving part of these forums for years now and a friend gave me a gentle push in the back to finally make an account and join the forums.
I'm not quite familiar with this scene (aside from following how games progressed until release) So I'm not sure if my art is suitable enough to open commissions here, get in on collaborations for some of my favourite game genres or if I need to change anything. So I'm opening a little "what do you think" thread as my first thread.

Your BGs are fine for a free project, I think, but not detailed enough to be used in a commercial game. Still, at a low enough price I think you can probably still do commissions to improve your skills.

You will easily be able to do commissions for character art though. There is some room for improvement, particularly in regards to, again, fine detail and maybe some proportions, but it's definitely within the threshold of "people will pay money for it".

I think it is very good and makes very nice, mysterious atmosphere. It could be made in awesome game. Girl with dark skin and crooked nose makes me smile from satisfaction. I like that you make various characters and backgrounds are nice but if you would want to merge it into a game you would have make things mathing with details. Backgrounds seem to be not finished and polished enough.

Personally I really love your art! If it was me, I'd collaborate with you on a project, and check out games that you'd be the main artist on. There's just something really appealing about the characters... they've got life to them... volume... dynamism. Your examples don't immediately make me think "this could be commercial" but somehow I get the feeling a lot of them are more doodles than finished pieces?

The backgrounds are a bit rough but I think the painterly style could work pretty well. It reminds me a bit of Jacob's Island (here's a link to their (sadly unsuccessful) Kickstarter page). Very sad they went on hiatus after the Kickstarter, the demo is REALLY good imho.

Somehow I get the feeling you'd be really good at CGs, even though none of the art you've shown is "complete" enough to be a CG.

If you're interested in having a stab at making a CG or a background for Stranded Hearts feel free to PM me. ^_^

I think your art is nicely done. It has a sort of Fairytale-esque feel to it, which makes me love it a lot. I could see your type of art in a fantasy VN based on things like Thumbelina or whatnot. You do a really good job at drawing, especially with backgrounds. I'd be interested to see what more you can/could do.
