Roasting Your Art (Gently) – Viewer Illustration Critiques!

Video Description

In this video, I asked you all to send in your illustrations—and wow, you delivered. I went through a mountain of amazing, weird, hilarious, and occasionally horrifying submissions and gave my honest feedback (and a few silly tweaks). From Pop-Tart Furbies to sad ice cream cones to Fist Chickens™—this was a wild ride. I also showed how small edits can make a big difference in composition, visual hierarchy, and lettering without losing your unique voice. This was so fun to make, I’m already thinking of doing another one. Wanna be part of the next one?
