[Catching Santa]

Is catching Santa David's new Christmas tradition or was this something that was already happening?

Anyways, good lighting, timing and overall nice job.

Merry Chrisnukkadan.

ChazDude responds:

Merry Christmas, Raddy :>

It's been his tradition for a long time, believe me.

[The Hell Games]

Poor Carl, even in death he's stuck with Dave. #Dave&CarlOTP
Pretty funny, lengthy and interesting comic.
I thought you missed a great opportunity of having a random celebrity be the devil or being a participant along with uncle Adolf and Osama, though.

Still really enjoyed this piece.

ChazDude responds:

Thanx Raddy-poo :3

[Effects]

Haha, very 4th wall breaking and clever.
And it's nice seeing you go back to your roots.

ChazDude responds:

I need to look back at my older stuff from time to time.

[Dead]

Heh, good punchline on this one.
I'd normally complain about the empty space in the background but this time it doesn't bug me so much since Dave's dead (although it looks more like purgatory than Heaven) but it could've used a little effect here and there, like for example when God talks little rays of sunshine could shine down upon Dave.

ChazDude responds:

I like the idea of God being completely invisible, but I see what you mean.

Since making this, I've improved backgrounds quite a lot c:

[A Colour Palette Chalenge]

Nice use of a limited set of colours, the background is really colourful and has a mural feel to it.
The criss-cross drawing lines on the character aren't necessarily bad but i think they should've been erased or at least cleared a bit so there'd only be one line through and through.
Also, this is just nit-picking but i feel like the strand of hair in front of her face should've either gone down to her cheek or not be there at all since it makes it look like that's what's making her wink, unless that's what you were going for from the start.

Nicely done nonetheless.

kgbm responds:

Thank you :)
I quite liked the sketchy lines (plus this wasnt really a serious piece in my eyes - more of a fun little doodle) and looking back, the strand of hair could have been placed better.

[Meowstic]

I have little to no experience with these new Pokemons but after looking up how they're supposed to look i gotta say, yours looks definitely better, it's simple and cartoon-ish yet it still has that Pokemon vibe to it.
I like the whole yin yang thing going on.

I think you could improve on the background a little bit, fill it up completely with flowers, i think that would've looked better as long as you gave the flowers a few extra colours, don't be afraid of giving the Pokemon some shading here and there either.

kgbm responds:

This is just one version of this, and it is a flat colour piece, so no shading in this version, but i will be using this as a base to paint over digitally, meaning there will be more detail to it in the next version I do. Thank you for your input :D

[Radaketor]

Nice work! Now i finally know what i'd look like if i was blond.
Good mix of colours, they blend very well with eachother even with my grotesque face in the middle of the piece, nice job with the shading as well.

MothmanAssociation responds:

Thanks, I tried to make the hair look like Magikarps moustache thingy. I'm glad you like it.

[RoboDave 2.0]

Nice work! I like the sky, fire and smoke effects (i think the smoke could've been a bit higher, though).
Nice job with shading and you captured Dave's psychotic mentality perfectly.

ChazDude responds:

Thanks for the rad review, rad!

[The Egg that Hatched]

The style and the mix of colours were pretty cute but the punchline just wasn't there for me.

ToonHole responds:

Tried subtlety for once. Maybe I failed.

[Hot]

Dave and Carl r34 confirmed.
Still a bit of empty space in your comics, would've added maybe a few birds in the distance to cover that a bit better. Nice job with the shadows.

ChazDude responds:

Sometimes I'm so busy focusing on the characters that I never really think to fill the background (especially over multiple panels), but as you said, more birds isn't a bad idea.

Oh, and also thanks for the compliment on the shadows c:

Btw, I think someone already r34'd Dave:
