This is a completely original and new idea, I've never seen artwork of Caterpie (or much of Pokémon in general, but that's just me) and I never anticipated to see something such as this. It surprises me in a way that I never expected a cute cartoon bug to appear quite as 'forocious' (is that correct terminology there?) as it does here, it has one think whether it's quite frightening in the world of Pokémon.
Despite the small defects with the legs (to be honest, I hadn't noticed this until reading previous critique this work has received, so it really can't be all that bad), I'd say that this artwork was created exceptionally. The colours are realistic and yet they still coincide with the original design somewhat - the patterns on Caterpie's back, the green colouring - and the background colour clashes with the pokémon depiction, but not in a bad way. It brings out the portrayal further, making it stand out against the purple. And like another critique covers - I particularly like the tail pincers.
I'm not particularly brilliant at writing critiques analysing imagery (hence why I don't do this often), but I do hope I managed to portray my observations a little here.
Five stars, this is brilliant.
This is my first critique, so I'm not going to go too in-depth here, but I think this is a very interesting approach to Caterpie. Throw in the fact that you see almost no good Caterpie art, and you come out with an amazingly unique piece.
I love how you added the pincers on the back of its tail; it definitely adds to the freaky feel. The only things I can pick at, well, at all are the feelers on top of its head and its "arms" (sorry, don't know the correct term here). The right (Caterpie's right) feeler is a bit askew and shorter than the other, even if Caterpie's turned to the right. With its "limbs," the left ones seem to be a bit askew as well. Really, though, I'm just nitpicking; these little things only add to its disturbing feel.
This is an amazing piece, and the fact that you were able to turn a simple Caterpie into a monstrosity makes the piece all the more stunning.
