AAARRR-F!

The Brief (From Facebook contest winner Kelsey Quiring): A pirate puppy on a pirate ship. And he caught a colorful fish in the ocean. And there's lots of blood.
The Critique (From TAD as usual): Well I was wondering, why did he catch a butterfly fish? Why didn't he catch a goldfish? You should draw it like: blood streaming down the butterfly fish.  Where's the blood? I want there to be a bit more blood. I want there to be like blood streaming down and dripping.

Artist's Request: Please keep your feet off the painting.
Additional Comments: How's the pirate going to get that alligator off the ship? Probably stick his hook right through his heart.  I hope the puppy wins.  Can you draw some more blood streaming down? Please?

The Keep

The Brief: A Bad Dragon



The Critique: What's he going to do to that castle? I think he's going to eat the princess. Is he mean? I think he should be mean. I think the princess is stuck in there for her whole life and then the dragon family came and went swimming in the lake and got eaten by crocodiles.

A Crocodile Swimming to Shore

The Brief: A Crocodile Swimming to Shore

The Critique: That’s not a crocodile, that’s a caiman! I like the noses - they’re called nostrils. How do you like mine? Do you like yours? I hate yours. Job Status: Rejected Comments on her own piece (right): That’s a caiman, that’s an American alligator, that’s an alligator and that’s a crocodile. They’re all kinds of reptiles. They’re all a family of crocodiles but that one is looking for his babies.
