Topic: Regarding bizarre downvotes on my uploads....

Posted under Off Topic

My first uploads ever has gotten major downvotes. Now I'm not complaining or ranting, but what is wrong with them? I have asked in the comments but even the comment was downvoted!

The inverse perspective effect might have something to do with it.

The drawings are very simplistic, with little detail, and a lot of the details which exist are incorrect.

For one... As mentioned, the perspective is inverted. Why do you have things getting smaller as they get closer to the viewer? Why do you have so much wasted space with the hallway and room(?), rather than focusing on the characters? The only light source seems to be the doorway, so why is Kirby lit from the upper-right rather than from behind? The characters seem like cut-outs.

Don't take this the wrong way, but there are so many issues that it is difficult to even know where to begin for how you should improve. You've violated just about every artistic principle in existence.

I'm no artist, but some of the design choices in those pictures feel a little strange to me:

  • There's a lot of light coming through a big opening, but virtually no shadow or shading anywhere else in the entire picture
  • The center of the picture/main focus of the picture is just a random boring ceiling. The characters are really tiny and put at the bottom of the screen for seemingly no reason.
  • The hallway gets cut off somewhat abruptly...ish

Those are just my opinions.

If it isn't furry enough, I usually tend to downvote things myself.
