(I totally ripped off Megatron's old avatar with the winking thing, by the way.)

I enjoyed the Experiments in Printmaking 1 the most of the 4 in the text body.

- 2 felt pretty boring, and 3 is ok, but it just feels like an other drunk peep illustration.

the mouth, eye, zipper - dunno I do not like the texture in it, as all the diffrent composition parts feel out of place from each other, and distortion on the teeth ruins the face texture even more - to that add the colours, and sure some ill warnings signals do generate from them, but no they still fall with the red imo - a so so in my opinion.

now the avatar I like more, and would consider it the best of the lot - so it being the extra and #5 - it also have some problems, mostly when the eyelid comes forth, and the elements again look out of place. I guess it is more or less the same as the main picture, but the small format kills most of the texture problems, and the contrast and colours feel better.

[EDIT] some serious faults and errors in typing corrected

I think the distortion of the teeth doesn't need too be. I also think mabye having the teeth joined at the face would look better too. I'm guessing it's a picture of your face and zipper?

The av is good. Mabye no eye-lashes.

1 and 3 are good, 2 just looks a little...crap?

I fucking dig that...

I really didn't like the printmaking things, though...Just..well..boring.

I really love the manipped piece, printmaking does nothing for me, same as ED. The teeth and zipper and everything are excellently done, though.

Took me about a half-hour. Used a red marker and water.

You can tell that I started gridding my paper and decided not to.

now that one was pretty cool - perhaps some added contrast?

anyway thumbs up.

I really like the red one. You should do more like this.
