Sta.sh
I was actually a little intimidated by having to critique this, considering your talent is so much greater than mine and I don't really know what to say about tutorials regarding media I don't use. I am therefore critiquing this on the grounds of an absolute beginner in digital art, and pretending that I'm using this tutorial to start using such media.
Negatives/Improvements:
> First of all, there are a few mistakes with the writing... //shot ... where you've accidentally put words together and such... And I'm only telling you this because I needed to fill this improvements section somehow
> I also think you could explain a little about that bright highlight in the eye. Did you just draw it in? Did you blur it? Did you do it with certain brushes or...? These details could be added in a few places, perhaps. For example, you didn't really say anything about the shading on the white of the eyeball.
Positives
> This is an extremely useful tutorial. The fact that you've explained everything you're doing, as well as saying why you've done it is really useful and helps the viewers understand fully what you're doing and what's going on. The details you've included from one step to another is just perfect too.
> Following that, showing pictures of what you're doing as you're going along, although this is a necessity when it comes to tutorials, is extremely useful because we can see exactly how things should be looking at each point, and the writing corresponds with this perfectly.
> The font you've used is easy to read as well, and everything stands out brilliantly against the darker background. The way you've highlighted the important bits and used letters to point out certain areas is brilliant as well and helps the viewers know what to focus on.
> Finally, the finished eye looks so beautiful! T_T I really wish I had the capability, talent and software to produce something so stunning.
I hope this is useful for you. This is a fantastic tutorial~~
