My Live Journal Community: For anyone interested in my art.

**STUFF & THINGS**I'm just kind of curious, what is it folks like about my squid image,

and do you feel the recent octopus image,

lacks that?
I dunno, I guess I am just really curious as to what makes an image popular or not when they are fairly similar.
Also, do you think I should remove the stumpy little hands from either/both of them? They are kind of arbitrary and on the squid one I get comments like, "Why does it have boobs?". XD
So, I am considering removing the hands on the squid and doing something different with the octopus so he doesnt have those random other hands.
Finally, are there any other animals, you'd like to see me do in that sort of cute style? ^^
I'd really like lots of imput here, it will help a lot.

That's why I think the Octopus is much more success full the then squid. He just looks so happy and adorable you just want to hug him. The squid just looks sad, like he's heart broken instead of in love. (I'm assuming they both are in love because of the hearts in the drawings, so my apologies if I'm assuming wrong).
One the note of the chibi hands I don't have a problem with them I think it adds to their cuteness. I also noticed there is a different picture when you click on the link for the original octopus, did you decide to change him? If so the new on is very cute but I like the detailed original best, it matches the squid more.
just my 2cents ^.^
but yes i totally see where you are coming from.
And yeah i had changed it octo on the same day i think.. im not sure why the thumb doesnt update
Thanks for the input!
