Great work. Very creative, and quite good proportionately. The Smash one looks good too. I like how clean it looks and the cartoon style you used looks quite nice.

Excellent, excellent style, I love it a lot.

I especially like your "work in progress", the motion is very nice.

The proportions are well done, and I love how you draw DK. I hope to see more.

Awesome.

Zomg! That's really, really good artwork you have there. O_O I love your style very much, it's unique and stylish. I especially love the last image, very good sense of depth and great lineart and concept. I would have hoped to see the last image more "perspective'ish", so that DK would have looked even more intimidating. But I still love that drawing very much, good details and clean, smooth lineart. I also like your other drawings and the first one has great coloring. Giga Bowser vs IC's is funny. :D Draw more please. ^_^

You made my day. I am a huge Mario fan and I love Mario vs DK. The second I regain the ability to, I'll +rep you. Mine are worth 4 pts. so you can expect to see that in the future.

Scan em or take a photo.

Great new pics. Very creative renditions of the characters, and once again, the poses you draw look very natural, and clean. Great work.

you should think about pursuing your drawing talent as maybe a job, a side-job to make a little extra money, instead of just a hobby.

The lineart is definitely excellent. I can't point out any errors there, but the colouring looks a bit... dull. Probably because the face doesn't stand out very much, and the hair looks a bit muddy, but the colours are still well done. The only other thing I would have to mention is that the shading and lighting effects you used, make some areas like the butt, have weird looking forms.

You have mad skills and can really draw keep it up.
The only thing I find a bit "weird" of the last drawing is one of the legs, and try to vary a bit more the line, parts that are a bit "closer" could have a thicker line. while if it's farther could be thiner.
Composition is really good.

Some tips for colouring:

When you are colouring, NEVER just use lighter and darker versions of the base colour for shadows and highlights. It makes things look incredibly boring and dull, and it's not how things work in the real world. Pick colours for the shadows and highlights, usually on opposite ends of the colour wheel, and use them over the whole image, to simulate different coloured lightsources and backgrounds.

Secondly, try using the hard edged brush. The soft one when used by beginners often gives this badly airbrushed look. The hard edged brush will give more of an illusion of paint strokes.

Also, avoid doing little half-hearted effects in the backgrounds of your images. They distract from the actual drawing, and make the whole thing seem tacky. If you are not going to put any proper hand drawn background in, you are probably better off leaving it blank. Just a solid colour or white.
