Description
"You know I need so much moreMore than I gave before
When metal replaces bone
The future is now, it is what you own
Not enough to save yourself
Better think of something else
And it's not exactly what I've become
But we know it's nothing that you have done
Backfire
Shut your mouth, you've got nothing to say
Backfire
You can break your back, get fucked up, feel the heat
Can't stomp me out
I'm throwing daggers from my mouth
I don't get tired
You can't tie me up or slow me down
You can't stop me now
I am a machine"

LOOK A PRESENT!
Here's a gift for my lovely friend ~Tylerzim . :3 I HOPE YOU LIKE IT, GIRLY!
Ever since I heard the song, I started thinking of her awesome OC Jack, and so I told her, and it helped me come up with an idea for her to use in her Bloodsport entry. :3 (AND GOOD LUCK TO YOU THIS ROUND, GIRL!!!). Thus the idea for this picture was spawned.
So have this kickin' awesome pic of Jack kicking some ass like a psychopath.
I did this mainly to get out of a major art slump I've been stuck in. I'm still not fully out of it, but this really helped me, and it was especially nice going back to my Invader Zim roots
And this came out better than I hoped, so I'm happy 'bout that. And for the first time, I'm gonna try out critique Any and all constructive critiques are appreciated!Jack (c) ~Tylerzim

Beautiful! I love how you colored it and did the lighting! Although i would like to comment on the scratch marks on the metal, the skin and the cracked eye. Maybe you should have added a 3D effect by showing how thick the metal is by a view of the inside, and showing what it would look on the inside of the metal shell. For example a few wires on the inside, or maybe a motherboard plating showing on the inside would look very cool (or just color it blue and pretend its the inside XD). Maybe add a few wires sticking out from the inside to show that it is frayed and cut? On the skin, you could have added blotches to show the character had been cut recently to add greater impact to the overall scene. And the last thing i could suggest is for the eye. The only thing is just a pure suggestion, maybe show it is missing a small piece in the glass?
Overall however I love the art with how its drawn and colored. Good job. I really love your art work and how it was done. You are a great artist and hopeful these tips will help you in the future. e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/sā¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="

HEY! I saw this when I was over last time! xD Again since I don't know this fandom too well I can't comment on it perfectly... but I can say a few things in general. *derp*
I love the metal wires/ropes/ whatever they happen to be. The detailing on them is awesome. The red circuitborad background is fantastic, really adds to the 'I am a machine' effect you were going for. I do agree with the critique that there could have been a few frayed wires, or rust/damage to Jack's machine/wires/etc to add to the intensity of this piece.
But whatever, it looks boss.

Did you? I guess I never moved it XD
And that's all good XD I rarely know the sources of your fanarts so it's all good X3
Thank you! The circuitboard was exactly what I was going for, but I'm uncertain if I like it or not. It could have been better, but it's at least better than it was X3
And yeah, in hindsight I should have tried adding more frayed wires or something. But whatever.
THANKS AGAIN GIRL.

Yes, yes I did. I just didn't say anything. xD
That's true, I like such obscure stuff. xD
You're very welcome! It looks just fine.
Hindsight is always 20-20 ya know? But whatever, it's beautiful anyway. xD
YOU'RE WELCOME AGAIN, GIRL~

I'M SO HAPPY YOU LIKE IT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR A WEEK AND IT'S BEEN SITTING UNFINISHED FOR DAYS BECAUSE I WAS TOO WORKED UP AND FEELING BAD TO DO ANYTHING. But now it's done!!
And I'm glad you like the background! I had to redo it a few times, and I kept toying with all the stupid layer filters and stuff to get the right effect. I'm FINALLY happy with how it looks.
THANK YOU!!
I hope you love it
