Artist's Comments

My fellow devianTARTlets! I come to you today because... well, because this picture is driving me insane. I've been working on it for days, and I'm afraid that it's too difficult to understand or something. I dont know! I cant be objective on it anymore. So any nice feedback will be cool before I send it for reviewing.

Some info on the story, which if possible shouldnt be necessary, but I'm afraid that it will be: that's a T-rex. He lives in the city. The first part of the story is just him being uncomfortable in unfit places. He has a little dog.

EDIT: thank you all for the great feedback. This is a second version of the picture. Things I changed: The roof - the wall/roof on the left - highlight on the dino's face - colour of the markings

looks great.
but i think for him just lying there, there´s to much lines leading to the background. this and all the falling pieces give me the impression he´s kinda falling into some elevatorshaft...
nevertheless. nice style!

gotta look at it pretty hard... i thought he was in a box first, perspective made it look like you're looking down on him... once i gleaned just what's going on though, it's wonderful.

It is sorta the idea that his appartment feels like a box, but it wasnt the idea that you're looking down on him. And you being the second person to mention it, I should take it into consideration. Thank you!

I love his pose! It's so endearingly cute!

At first I thought it was a sort of horror/gory pic, but I think that's only because I was stupid enough to think his markings were blood...

Great title too btw.

Can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad?
Trying hard not to smile, though I feel bad
You're the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean? Well, you soon will

Very good picture, only problem I see is that blanket (?) in the left upper corner look more like a tongue. An his feet looke like a rolled matress. I would bring up (maybe some fater line) the head and the arm so the "morning yawning" would by more readable.

I don't know, maybe it's just my retarded obsession with things gory

Still, awesome work as always dude. Hope to see more soon!
