status + look at the system;

A+, B- Reviews. [CLOSED]

 

how it all 
works.

 

          All-in-all, I do not/ will not give out number scores, or letter scores in any way, shape or form. Personally, I find those kind of scores discouraging to the designer (this is from personal experience from when I first started submitting my own designs in for reviews, lol. If this is not you, then... okay, lol).

 

          So what will I do? Basically, I tell you what I think is good, and what is not. What things I think should be taken into consideration and improved. Again, these are my personal opinions, and that's all that they are. You can disregard them if you wish, I will hold no grudges and I have no problem with that. 

 

          I realize that because I don't give out scores, some (maybe many) people will find this type of review ineffective. That's totally fine, that is your personal thoughts about this system I have chosen. However, my main goal/ my main reason for setting up a review shop is to help designers improve. And I find that giving out scores can discourage a designer. So if you are someone who view this system of reviewing as ineffective, this is not the review shop for you. 

 

as always, if you have any questions, please feel free to drop them down below, I am more than happy to answer them to the best of my abilities. 

 

* remember that you are requesting at your own risk. I am a very honest person, and if my critism comes off as "rude" I apologize in advance. I, in no way, shape or form intend to be rude, or cocky.

Will close the shop soon (probably) not feeling the reviews anymore. Maybe I'll transform it into something else....

Anything Else? I've always had a problem with my posters being either too busy or too simplistic... Is this one too busy? And is the fontwork legible?

Chapter 8: Thank you for the review! It's really helpful, and it will definitely help me improve my works. I really like the way you give the review, because it's so detailed and you didn't give only critics but also tips on how to make it better. Again, thanks a lot and happy new year! (It's the 2nd of January but meh close enough)

Chapter 7: thank you for your review!! haha i didnt notice that sehun was that far up that it looks weird until now, and the right side being darker etc etc

thanks for pointing it out! will take note in the future~~

and also, thank you for giving such a long detailed review! went to other review shops for this poster before and all they gave was
" font _/5, color _/5, notes: nothing much blah blah blah" like the review was only 5 lines :/

so yeah thanks for the detailed review!! *w*

notes: I've been dabbling on blending posters a little bit, so can you comment on my blending? typography is also my weak point, so i'd be happy if you can comment on that, too.

Chapter 9: First, I would like to apologise profusely for the late response, I wasn't really active in AFF graphic designing ever since the start of the year, so I have to apologise for not checking story updates. I'm 6 months late? I'm so sorry >_<

I have a lot of things to say regarding the review. Overall, I find it very detailed, knowledgeable and resourceful; I seriously learnt a lot. I guess after reading your review, I have this strong will to start graphic designing again with all these wonderful tips that I can try to improve on. I totally love the way you gave me some examples, I will take more notice on the light that is at Chanyeol's nose. After you picked that out, I found that very awkward. In future, I will try not to erase any necessary images for the characters as it did look very weird.

Thank you so much for the advices, I will take the advices into hard and I do hope I can get to request again in the near future. I have to apologise once again for this late reply, sorry and thank you!:)

Chapter 10: Wow... I'm really thankful for this detailed and precise review.I must admit that I had placed the pictures randomly. I didn't really care about how the coffee looks at the back (oops) but now that you mentioned, it does look like a plate ._."
I will definitely change the canvas size now that you mentioned and I guess I'm still not quite use to psd yet.
I will work harder on the typography part and maybe find some time to redo this poster.
I feel so embarrassed about the oc without arms... It's more like the requester's request to use the oc. I should have changed it.
Last but not least, thank you for the advices!! I will try them out^^
Thank you♥
