    For da Noibat



    Form/Detail
    This image doesn't have too much to clutter or unbalance it, but neither is is truly populated or detailed.

    Color, Texture, and Shading
    The best use of color in this image is the bright contrast between the purple and yellow, it makes the pokemon more apparent in comparison to the background. Color variation on the pokemon gives the different parts their own importance. Besides that, the lack of much else to the image makes it very flat and lifeless. There is no shading in the image, which makes the forms lacking and gives no source of light in the image. As for textures, the background does have something light to make it more interesting than a flat plane, which is a start. But thats about it.

    Pokemon Anatomy
    Hm… Well. It does have the general appearance of a Noibat once you know what the image is depicting. Some of the base colors are correct, minus the darker central body. Thats the most positive I can be there. There is a foot missing, and all the black body fur is absent, making the dark purple body look naked and odd in comparison to any similar images of Noibat. The eyes are misshaped, needing to be ovular instead of circles. The pupil also seems absent. Definitely work on refining the forms to make the pokemon more accurate and recognizable.

    Environment/Perspective
    Very simple environment. Very, very simple. Noibat seems to be living in a world of yellow planes. This environment has global illumination, making any shape and form hard to see. AKA theres no shading or shadows to give Niobat and his home any shapes or forms. The perspective is very straightforward and gives us a direct look at the main element of the image, but its also a very plain and boring point of view, offing no action or drama.

    Creativity/Effort
    Seems like this was done in a rush without a whole lot of planning, so I cant give too many points here. Planning ahead is always a good idea and will allow greater skill and detail to show in your images.

    Improvements
    Read up on the previous areas, as every section needs some work. I won't point out one over the others as they all require equal work.

    Score
    15/100

    Nope, no capture here.
