I think this might be my favorite one, along with all your drawings of Robin. This drawing is so beautiful, especially his expression!

I love how much emotion is in this though! I agree with the people below and see a lot to love in this--
i don't see any flaws but then again I'm only a hobbyist xDΒ
Either way, ace's death was so heart wrenching and devastating and I feel like you portrayed it beautifully c:
(dat smoke tho--)

Hey this is amazing, there's something really symbolic and deep about this.. Especially the more I look at this. I love the flames running down his shoulders, and the way he's looking skyward. Don't hate it, it might not be your best or you might not think you've done your best here, but it's still a really beautiful piece of art

I'm glad that you can still enjoy it despite it's flaws. I was originally going to draw the fist going through his chest, so I'm also happy that you like just the symbolism. I think I was just feeling a little discouraged when I posted this for some reason, thank you for your supportive comment. <3

No need to apologize, I think this is incredibly beautiful. We're are all our own worst critics. I think your work is amazing and I hope you never give up. Try not to feel too pressured, as it can actually stop you from doing well. Just have fun with your art and do what you like with it, when you can. ^^ Real life and other obligations often get in the way, but I think you're doing a great job of keeping up with everything. I can't speak for everyone, all I can say is that I am certainly not disappointed. I hope someday you're able to see the beauty in all of your work.

Thank you very much my friend, I suppose I've just been a bit disheartened lately. After all, our flaws make us work harder and eventually I will probably be able to find a quality or style that I'm happy with. I'm very happy to hear that you like it though, that's what really matters to me. <3

As a fan of your work, I have to disagree that you haven't posted anything good in a while. Especially if you're including this in that "not good" category. I really like this! The composition is nice, the way the flames contrast against that dark grey sky. In my eyes, this picture captures the moment when Ace realized that he's not going to make it. The shock of the initial injury is still present, like part of him is unable to keep up with the events. But in his expression, I can see that realization that it's over. The falling beads, the freckles and the teeth are all nice details that helps bring this to life. The shading and colouring is smooth and realistic as always. I think you did great with this, and don't see any reason to hate it. We are our own worst critic, and as a fan I'm here to say: you don't need to be so critical! ^^

I feel like all of my work is pointless until someone like you comes along and gives it a story. You help me to see the value in what I do, even when at times I'm not as prolific. I suppose I was being over dramatic, I just hope that some day I'll be able to be proud of my art, right now everything feels half-assed. I'm afraid I'll loose motivation, because my creativity comes in short bursts, and so I try and finish my paintings as soon as I can so it ends up rushed and messy. For example, here, I'm very unhappy with the fire. I tried using a blur tool around the edges to make it look like it was giving off heat, like a mirage sort of thing. The image as a whole isn't saturated enough, I wanted the fire to really contrast with the rest of the image, including Ace himself. The beads look like they're from a totally different image, and they don't tie in very well. His muscle build isn't accurate to his character as well, he looks weak and soft. I suppose that could work in my favor though, because it isn't the focus of the picture, maybe making his muscles more defined would have distracted from the emotional pull of the thing- I don't know. Thank you very much for your kind words and support, my friend. <3
