wow, harsh, huh??? well this is a critique for the great and ingenious ZERJ. the overall rating on this project is based on what i know he can do, and this project doesnt deliver. frankly its boring and unoriginal. i yawned in my previous commnent... i will critique this on an overall scale and not in comparison with zerj's talent. with that said, if you have sensative people in the room and little crybabies that cant handle a critique, please have them exit the room now.

lets start with cons so we dont go running away crying when this is over.

well to start, this project is quite frankly bland and boring. the color selection is too primary, and has little to no substance, although i would have to say that the contrast with lights and darks is nice, but blue and yellow mixed the way it is here... its odd, and un-impactful.

the textures on the wall are ok, could use some work, they dont appear to have deptch and come across flat, the opposite of what the artist had intended. the lightness in the corners appear to be like a sad attempt at a glowing effect, but really it just looks like bad lighting and shadow work. it could really use without. there is no real texture so the idea that this 'wall' or 'room' is real is far from reality. it looks like a quick, cheap cut and paste/skew job.

the yellow paint in the foreground is badly done, and could improve the image if it was taken away. its entirely unoriginal and doesnt accurately give the feeling of depth, since you only have one blurriness and nothing between this and the focal point. its boring. the yellow puddle like attempt around the body in the middle is horribly done. it looks as if the artist had applied a bevel and emboss and comes across as about as fake as Heidi Montags face. the splashes are blurry and the shadows are horrible.

over all shadows are not great, project looks rushed. realistic element is non existent.

THE PROS:

over all the idea looks pretty cool, just that this entire project could be redone or done at a later date when the skills of the artist are to par with the goal he is trying to reach

the colors could work if there was more brightness and hue variation. primaries are my personal pet peeve. i think that if this is to stay everything needs to be improved especially the paint, etc.

the bubble things in the background are really KEEEWL!!! i love them, but then maybe they just look so cool cause everything else, well, for lack of a better phrase, looks crappy.

the verdict:

weak project, with little to no substance, poor color choice and execution. comes across as extremely rushed...

on a personal note to zerj:

COMMON MAN! WHAT THE HELL?! well not what the hell, but you know, i have seen some amazing stuff come from you, and this is possibly one of your worst. wow. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/p/p…" width="24" height="15" alt=":puke:" title="I think I am going to PUKE! - :puke:"/>
