> Guidelines for Giving Feedback

Please consider the following when giving feedback on a member's tattoo:

Line work: Does the artist seem to have grasped the technique of applying smooth, consistent lines? Do the lines flow with no shakes, skips or blow-outs?

Fill: Are all color and black areas a consistent color?

Shading: Does the tattoo show smooth gradients and transition effectively from light to dark?

Color Harmony:
Does the tattoo have colors that compliment each other?

Placement/Size:
Does the tattoo seem to be the right size for the area chosen? Is it centered and lined up with any other work? Does it go with the flow of the body?

Design: How well does the overall design work? Does it have sound composition? Does it feel well thought out?

Feedback: What areas could be improved?

Nice! Is it a new liner or new shader? Is it your own art? If so, I love how you handled the back of the jawbone in the open cheek area. smile.gif

Now that I look at it again, I see just a little bit here and there that bugs me. I think you missed some shadow. I see you need a little more attention in the ear. and the earring. The ear needs some shadow in there and the earring needs some brown and black, or just some kind of shading to round it out. I think the art is certain enough to where you don't need any more shadow in the face. Nice tattoo. smile.gif
