Lord Jesus is LORD of all for all time. The one and only, exclusively, permanently, and truthfully for me and all the world forever. All other gods or idols or religions or cultural ideologies but Christ and Christianity are false. Be blessed! He is the One Way, One Truth, One Life ✝️❤️ John 3:16

[@IsraelLlerena]

Aaliyah fixed her portfolio and did what you suggested and it looks so much better!!

[@speakwithanimals]

these breakdowns are always so detailed, and the feedback you give is super dense with info. I feel like I learn a lot every time, and I'm not even animation-adjacent, so great job as usual :)

[@cant_help_myself]

Why is this women more helpful then all my art teachers-_-

[@McPoof]

Are they public school teachers?

[@The-Busy-Beeeee]

Probably because she's actually passionate about the subject and draws a hell of alot

[@viettrung7822]

Wow, the performance and storytelling of that sponsor was astonishing - actually couldn’t skip it lol

[@JackieDroujko]

Lol

[@Sol_Mooney]

I really appreciate these videos esspecially as someone who is just starting to get into the industry.

[@hannahhhbal]

“this isn’t myspace” best sentence ever

[@ChantelleArts]

These review videos are my favourite to watch I love how honest and straight to the point you are, they’re always so helpful! ❤

[@xennnyu8664]

I’m not planning to go to art school nor am I even in senior hs. Yet here I am intrigued by each advice she gives

[@framb0ise_uzumaki]

Мои заметки: 1. Негативное пространство разной формы 2. Упрощать, не нагружать деталями. Если они отсутствуют и нет изменений в персонаже - то правилььно убрал 3. Отражай личность персонажа(злой) в действиях (убббво таракана например) 4. Меньше текста, фона 5. Ростовая сравнительная характеристика 6. Упрощать! Если после удаления деталий ниче не изменилось - они были не нужны 8. Не рассказывай, а покажи 9. Скетч-Вариации как пришел к концепту

[@neptunehallow345]

I just found you today but I've been binging your channel and I absolutely ADORE your fan critique videos. You've done this better than anyone I've ever seen and the way you explain things helps not only the person you're critiquing but also the viewer to fix their own mistakes. Big fan and cant wait for more videos of this fashion!

[@wanderovrponder]

Bro i have that exact spider-man from when i eas a kid! Bro i love what you use for a muc and your content is great!

[@JackieDroujko]

Missing the motorcycle!

[@wanderovrponder]

@@JackieDroujko same!

[@barrington5438]

Awesome feedback. I feel you take into account where each artist is skill wise, and find the best way to help them.

[@alexclairmont]

I love these videos. It's always so interesting for me as well to check out the reviewed portfolios and see how they've changed since the review. First one in this video still hasn't updated a thing since your video upload but the second one definitely took on a lot of your advice and has updated it. Great to see. Your critiques are really detailed and constructive. Awesome series!

[@bananacreampudding]

These are so much fun to watch

[@iisabellpen3485]

Queen ur videos are all gold i no longer count how many times i re-watch some of these

[@jacobtrump9946]

Always love these!

[@opendoortheatre4328]

This is such useful feedback - I’m really loving these videos!

[@PinkPulpito]

Your videos are so good for how direct and effective you communicate everything.

[@MintyMido]

Thank you for such detailed and helpful breakdowns - these are so much help!!

[@Kiara.step-daughter]

OMG that fan art is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

[@kaki8466]

You are one of my biggest inspiration for art

[@mary._.2859]

I love these videos so much

[@martletkay]

Honestly, as great as the artwork is, the first monkey character from the first portfolio reads as evil to me, so if I was reviewing this and it was clear that he's the protagonist, I would think the artist doesn't have the best handle on character or shape language. There are lot of elements to the character that read as wicked, even if they wouldn't necessarily individually; together they create the wrong impression for me. Like the snaggly sharp yellowed teeth, the expressions that seem more mean and scheming than mischievous, dark color palette, yellow jaundiced eyes, 'creepy' body shape etc.... The dark headband and armband, as well as other parts of the costume give me a more 'bad mercenary' or even terrorist vibe. The middle top one in the poses is the only one that gives me the impression of 'silly'.

[@itsmejmoshi464]

Dude that microphone is sick

[@FlamingFox59]

Would it be a good idea to include a little timeline for how my character changes throughout the story? Because most of my characters have some development but I don’t know how to show that or organize that. Just to make it less confusing for their different looks

[@biboball6285]

Is their age changing? Or just outfits based on their arcs

[@okyes2753]

It's good if you orient it to demonstrate how you're able to take a basic design and evolve it. IE: take a basic kid design and put a few of the ideas/aesthetics/motifs you associated with that design and in the next design how you've taken those ideas further. If it's just throwing some eyeliner and a hoodie it might not be the best concept - the next design should be transformative and feel like an evolution that tells its own story. Think square - > cube - > rubik's cube, not triangle - > square - > rectangle. If you're using it for clarification - it's probably not a great idea as the pieces should be visually clear on their own. Pick your most impressive/favourite design and stick with it.

[@art._-_-_894]

[@crash3287]

[@emmahansen7005]

These videos are so cool and interesting, I hope you make more

[@rangshi]

very helpful!!

[@Rat_coz]

For character line-ups, would you recommend to also convey emotions in their face, or focus on their body language?

[@linalele1663]

Awesome video

[@aravindrenmahenthiran6258]

Is the writer's strike in Hollywood making you lose your job (I'm just curious because I heard artist losing their jobs because of the stike)

[@melanymiskatonic8699]

So good

[@cybrneptunez]

definitely some of my favorites videos you’ve done are portfolio reviews they are so helpful plz do more🤧🫶🫶🫶

[@Zombiedino65]

I was wondering if you self teach yourself but you don’t have specific job experience (only as a comic con exhibitor) is it still possible to find work? Also, are applicants discriminated based on age? I don’t know the average age an animator, character designer, or illustrator in terms of entry level

[@Artistjames2330]

i want to make a portfolio myself for my art but i have no idea where to start

[@JMPT]

Very Nice

[@Icecube506]

[@poumybeloved]

[@arleenlasleur]

I prefer to do pin-up fanarts but these seems to be not so suitable for portfolio due to provocative vibe. For example my favorite one is Lina from DotA 2, covering her breasts with two middle fingers. This is definitely not an art which some people want to see on site, but I absolutely love this one and want to place it at the very first page.

[@bellagreco9343]

Woww, I love these portfolio reviews sm🫠 I'm in early stages of putting together my own portfolio (I had to basically start from scratch because most of my art from the past couple years have been fan art🤠), and the review videos and portfolio tips video you made have been SO helpful in getting me started and giving me an idea of what I want.🤌✨ So thank you very very much, Jackie.🫡💗
