What's an unpleasant dream for a space monster like?

Surely they don't have uneasy dreams (I don't think space monsters have *nightmares*) about monsters and such, maybe they dream about their tax returns?

Maybe they have unpleasant dreams of purple jellybeans with faces? Dancing in a meadow with ice cream clouds?



Let me know what you think!! THANKS!!

cool

tho i think you should review some details as bed's legs and some traces like those on the little clouds (i'd delete them)



anyway those jellybeans are AWESOME you should use them alone for a design =D

Man, this is a sweet design you've got here, and an awesome design. I've only noticed a few things that could be improved much. The perspective of the bed and sheet in comparison doesn't really match, and not in a good way. Also, I think the jelly bean's legs would look better bendya little bit and their shoes would look cool with a little highlight on em. Also, If you could find someway to incorprate the purple into the rest of the design, maybe on the monster, it would look a lot more unified. Also, the edges of the bedroom could be refined a little. Sweet though!



Crit mine?

Ha ha! I'm with u on what they dream. Why don't u enlarge the dream bubble and delete at least 2 of the ones that doesn't have anything, and some expressions of terror in the monster face also sweat drops. it's that a glass of water on the drawer? if it is try placing it broken on the floor, well but that's just me. Oh! and the room work it a little bit.



Thanx for ur critique.

Dream bubble needs to be bigger.

the dream bubble didn't make sense to me til I read your description.

I agree with SpunkyDesigns. I thought that they might have been kidneys or something.



The dream bubble does need to be a bit bigger and closer, with fewer dream clouds between, and you should fix the way the sheet looks as it drapes across his many legs.



Really cool idea, though!

i would fix the far right bed post or put the drawer in front of it.

Well I added some modifications based on the v1 critiques, such as the bedpost, blanket, improvements to the ray-gun, changes to the dream bubble/jellybeans, etc.



As always, thanks for your critiques!!

I think that you need to add more relief (bumps) on the bed showing the form of the monster lying underneath.



The legs of the bed need to be thicker as they need more dimension.



Why does he have 2 pillows, is there a mrs monster somewhere?



His legs need to be a different colour to the floor so they don't look see thru.



The raygun needs more definition in the front.



Good Luck.

hehe made me laugh, I would work more on the tentacles a bit more chubby or something those look a bit 'chew', also take off the dream cloud stroke and make it fluffier like the small ones! (also not sure about the white stroke on the blanket)



Crit mine? ty :)

This is so random, yet strangely amusing. I agree with the suggestions that Mountain Gnome offered. The thin bed legs are what bother me most...it looks like a cheap IKEA bed that will surely fall apart soon.

First thing i noticed was that the 'left' and 'right' bed legs are missing the uhh "width" part that makes them look 3D and the dream bubble looks a little bit rough as there usualy sort of cloud like, i think its a good idea but just needs some smoothing over, good luck with it.

yeah u can hav the alien bigger than the bed and more defined to make him more prominent? u can add sweat too hehe... i agree with the bed legs comments :) u dont hv to make it ruler perfect tho, uneveness is nice too.. u can also opt to remove the dream outline..



but that's just me :p it's charming as it is, totally your call. My friend also like it as is

that icecream cloud looks like the way most ppl try to draw cute poop. i'd go w/ an actual cloud. kick it up a notch with sunshine and flowers like a musical cartoon. maybe having all of them wearing tinfoil hats. there should be some sort of signifier that the alien is having a nightmare, maybe sweat coming off the brow or lose a couple eyes so his forehead could be wrinkled in distress. good luck!

I like the idea that space monsters would find cutesy things to be terrifying.



I don't know if I would have left the monster in a thought bubble, since he isn't part the dream. But that's just me.

Great idea!

Besides the comments about the bed legs and the ice cream poop, which I agree with, I think you could make the monster a little more uneasy. I don't know, maybe making the tentacles more dynamic, and "anguished" (Is that even a word?), and I suggest putting a tentacle on the opposite side of the bed, as it would make your monster more "complete". Great work!

maybe you could try one with out the monster's room, just the bed and the night stand?

i see you fixed the bed post. it looks better. maybe the unpleasant dream could be more unpleasant for the alien if they were wearing tinfoil hats like chelly suggested

You guys, thanks for all your comments. New version, coming up!

Ok, so I incorporated a lot of critiques into v3, namely :

The Bedposts are now more 3d

I removed the floor as to make the monster pop more

New and improved raygun

The dream cloud is different, bigger

The dream is a lot crazier, more beans, flowers,

Poop clouds gone,

Monster now has sweat beads coming off him.



Thanks again for all your comments!!

Oh, and I changed the placement on the Tee as well, do you think it's better than the previous one?

Man that dream is messed up. I do love it though.

I think this is much better...all of the issues I had have been addressed.

cool concept

cool

I don't think that there's anything left to change, though I liked the mouth on V2 better. He almost looks kinda happy or relived with the open mouth he has now. Maybe have the bottom lip curve upside down instead.

The dream is much more over-the-top cute now too, which I like.

Are you still keeping the second pillow? or is that there to show that he's in a larger bed, normally for two humans?

Not sure on the positioning either, though I do kinda like him at the bottom and his dram going toward the center, but I think keeping the dream close to him like it is the better choice.

Over all this looks very polished and I like it.

Looking good, placement also good. I have one further suggestion: Make him alone in bed with only one pillow and thus he can be centered in the middle of the bed.



Much improved, well done!

i like it. definite improvement from the first couple. not sure about the navy shirt though... maybe it's just me, but i think there's a better color out there for this illo.

Thanks for all your comments, they have been very helpful. As far as the pillows, I tried it with the one, but I guess I liked the 2 pillows better, maybe the space monster has a ms. monster, or maybe he hugs the other pillow with a tentacle when he gets too scared.



I''m thinking of subbing this as is, what do you think?

doooo it!

ahh i love the sweat drops that little detail looks cool and the dream part rocks (and the cloud look much better as well) also the floor looks better like this too

That's cool concept mate. Very cool. I like it very much, don't know what to add :)



Pls score and crit mine:
