Welcome to round 4 of Crit Night on Sammacha.com
I really think that I have learnt quite a bit this time around. Thank you so much to my participants for making this possible.
Please click on the image to read the critique written by our lovely artists.
Pic #1. Roxanne by Sammacha Artist's Statement: Recently I have decided to once again work with digital "painting" while continuing to use my line work. I really feel that I have come a long way with digital art (and art in general) in the past year. I have been focusing more on anatomy and light sources. Of course any suggestions are helpful but my main focus at the moment are those two things.
Pic #2 Celeste by Antumbra Artist Statement: Tried a new shading technique with ambient occlusion while mixing colors in the lights and shadows. Not sure I like where it is at right now, but I definitely want to keep improving! Any critique you are looking for in particular? Definitely the shading and the coloring.
Pic #3: Walk with me by FF-Boy Artist Statement: "This is my best work I have done so far. This time, I wanted to practice background and painting technique. For the critique, I would love to hear anything that you think they need to be improved, such as anatomy, composition, perspective, color scheme, painting techniques, etc. Thank you in advance! ^^"
Hello and thank you for particularizing in crit night!
Crit night is a small event held here on www.sammacha.com’s art blog. Its a event where artist help artists by submitting both an image for critique and a critique for a randomly assigned artist. This allows for everyone to receive input from someone different. It also provide and opportunity for each artist to look at a style they may not be familiar with and offer some advice or opinions while learning themselves as well.
This time around we had a few less participants (5) due to the holiday’s but there is no lack of helpful tips from each of our artists.
If you are an artist or know and artist that may be interested please pass on the link with all the info

Hello, and welcome to the first crit night on Sammacha.com.
As usual the first run is always full of a few bumps but I feel that it went alright. If anyone has any feedback on what can be improved I would be happy to hear it.
I must thank most everyone for submitting their artwork and their critique on time. (Yes since this is the first crit night I have made an exception to the rules)
I hope everyone will be able to benefit from tonight and many more to come, so, on to the artwork.
Everyone was assigned one image to critique and it was optional to critique any other piece you felt like. To read the critique you received just click on your picture. Feel free to leave comments or send me an e-mail and I will forward it to the owner of the picture or the critic.
I look forward to having another crit night in the near future, new participants welcome. Click here for more information on Crit Night

Almost anyone can join. I am open to people of all skill levels submitting their art work for constructive criticism.
*If you would like to receive critique on your work you MUST be willing to critique the work of another person ON TIME!
You Must Read The Rules
to participate, please contact me at SamanthaLim@sammacha.com by the deadline stated on the schedule
If you just want to drop a comment feel free!
This is open to people who draw, sketch or paint digitally or traditionally. All styles are welcome.
This is not for people who do photo-manipulations, photography, sewing, creative writing, crafts or 3D art.
Pictures do not need to be complete. Sometimes it is very valuable to receive critique on a picture before it is finished. this helps you to improve the overall finished project. However it must be clean ( not a ton of messy scribbles) so we can see what you are trying to create. Its no use asking someone to critique a picture if they aren’t sure what you are trying to accomplish. Submit something worth while.
Don’t forget you can request Critique on a certain part of your drawing in particular.
DONT FORGET
Please read the rules before joining crit night.
Rules are subject to change. Previous participants will be notified if a change occurs.
Critique Night is night which will be dedicated to creating a night full of constructive criticism for artists of all skill levels.
This is open to people who draw, sketch or paint digitally or traditionally.
This is not for people who do photo-manipulations, photography, Creative writing, sewing, crafts or 3D art.
What I would like to do is build a community of artist willing to help one another. I and a few of people I know find that critique, real constructive critique on your artwork is extremely hard to find. Most of the time people simply “like” the picture, and sometimes we wonder what it is about that picture it is that they really do like.
Every few months I am hoping that people will submit work which they would like feedback on, in turn they will help provide feedback to other artists about their work. This allows the artist to see how others view their work, what they like, what they don’t like and most importantly how they can improve their skills.
Once all the art is collected each artist will be randomly assigned 1 piece to critique (Of course it would be great if you could do more). This would ensure that everyone gets at least 1 critique on their art work. Your art will only get posted when your critique has also been written.
There will be a deadline for art submissions and I will give a set amount of time for people to write their Critiques ( Im thinking 2 weeks would be enough time to crit just 1 picture)
On Crit Night I will post all the pictures with all the critique they received for everyone to see here on my Blog where people can view them all and post comments.
Of course to contact you I would require your E-mail address (which I will not post or share to others)
the Basic form I am hoping people to fill out is a simple one and will be something along the lines of this:
Red line/examples (optional)
Please rate from 1-3
Originality/creativity:
Color scheme:
Overall Composition :
So,
If you’re an artist looking for some constructive criticism on your artwork and are willing to critique others work then this might be a great opportunity for you.
If your not an artist but are interested in providing some valuable feedback I would also be interested in hearing from you.
