Your backgrounds (especially the cityscape one) were good so I don't know why you've thrown them away for that Draw a big picture of Rialto in some sort of action pose (I know, I should have done that too :V) on a 500x700 canvas and then crop him onto that roof

What Chao said. Also I'd prefer just a single panel, if only to match everyone else's.

Do what they said. Do it. Can't believe no one else said this but that looks downright exquisite. Good work.

Honestly, scaling up paint images never works well. You're going to have to draw it that size, not make a smaller picture big enough to fit.

I actually think he'd look awful even if it wasn't pixelated.

I actually think he'd look awful even if it wasn't pixelated. This is a big step for me and I'm working at my best at times fighting through the frustration of getting a good pose, alignment of body proportions, CORRECT body proportions, and proper stance. I know the resizing fucked it up big time for me. I'll deal with all that later. So what is wrong with Rialto? Is it the coloring? The proportions? Am I getting a limb or something else wrong? Is it the clothes? Come on tell me I want to know what you think. Don't tell me its the head cause I don't do perfect heads. I'll try my hand at redrawing it later. With a DIFFERENT background.

nitro if you wanna talk proportions, im gonna tell you now- it's all wrong. and so is the coloring. you cant just magically transfer from stick to fullbodies like that, it takes practice. so please, brush up on your fullbodies before making a banner.

Well, just put up one of my drawings just to show I put in effort and you don't need to be the best damn artist to get accepted.

I dont know if I want to have Zarth in SPB when the new website is finalized. He was never meant to be in SPB from the start, it was a stupid choice I made back when SPB first began. :/

Grim and McJ, what are you doing? I feel you looked at the picture for five seconds and said "ok"
If you guys actually payed attention you would notice a lot of unappealing flaws. I like DJgramps and all but it just looks rushed to me. The background is just terrible. It's a typical Advice Dog! rainbow background. and look at his eyes! they're like aliens! the overall picture is so, bland

You're right, it does look like an alien... Yeah, I really, really couldn't come up with ANYTHING for a background. Eh, I might do something else some time, and shade it.

Anyway, I updated GunSmith, you guys choose if you want grent to change it or not.Scrap that I hate it now.

Slippery Slope argument = Automatic argument failure :/ While I agree that you want some standard of quality, you're taking things too far to a ridiculous degree. That is obviously not going to happen.

Ehhhh you guys sort this out on your own. Anyway, I updated GunSmith, you guys choose if you want grent to change it or not. He looks a little squished, plus I was gonna do my own eventually anyways. I'll leave the previous one for now unless you guys overwhelmingly want the new one.

I didn't say "OK sure it can go up", I said "I liked it." Opinions, mango. They exist. What do you take me for? I like DJgramps and all but it just looks rushed to me. The background is just terrible. It's a typical Advice Dog! rainbow background. and look at his eyes! they're like aliens! the overall picture is so, bland It honestly looks like he put more effort into his than you did yours.I can agree that the background does need work though. But what you are doing is exaggerating beyond the point of what is reasonable.

alright grim, when you say you like it's basically a vote for it to go up on the site, wouldnt that make sense? jesus christ think who are you to say that he put more effort into his than mine? were you there to see us draw both of the pictures hm? i guess you can magically tell because of your godly amounts of art skill. and most of all, gramps said it himself, he wants to change it a bit (FUCK YOUR OPINIONS)Reason for Editing: b4 i get banned for expressing my onions

I have to admit that, now that she mentions it, there's not an enormous difference between yours and his. Maybe you did take more effort over it but it hardly shows.
The proportion is better, true, but that's about all it has going for it. You have every problem you listed in his picture; No real shading, Weird undefined background and pretty weird eyes.

People, stop overreact, I know I ain't the best drawer in the world, but I do know that I am decent enough, and have gotten really far these last few months, just because some people said they liked my drawing even though it's flawed doesn't mean they think it's Mona Lisa like you make it out to be, the people who wants it to be better are obviously making a bigger deal about this than it is, and I am not saying this because it's my own drawing, because I can see where you're coming from. Just don't let my drawing start some bullshit e-drama, I've had enough of that on ScrewAttack, and that destroyed the community more or less.
There's not even any reason, since I've said myself that it isn't really that good, and it is a wee bit rushed. So shut your cakeholes and don't be a drama queen, daddy-o.
Besides, Madvideogamer.... ehm, your making no sense, because... if Grimscott can't say that both of ours looks to have the same effort put into them, who are you to say that my drawing looks rushed? I'm not saying you don't have the right to say that, just pointing out that your argument is flawed.
DJGrandPa, over and out *climbs ladder onto helicopter*
