I don't like Phill, seems dark in color (may be my TV's fault). All of the others would be good insignias tho I think. Simple drawings serve simple things, I don't think you'll win any art contests with these, or any points for originality, but don't stop making more! Art is something you need to stick with and constantly make more of if you are to get better.

Do these have personal meanings behind them? People judge art a lot on idea before actual talent, so it would help if you maybe explain them more. I only ask because of how you named them.
first off, thanks for the honest feedback :D

And yes, i made each of these for a person in my life, like Amanda is my girlfriend, which is why i used pink and purple, her favorite colors, mine is Teal, and so on and so forth, and i tried to make each of them with somthing they like, like Matt's looks kinda like a Wolf, and Corie's has a hand on it sence hes in a medical field and so forth. (Like Ryan's colors too, sence hes a Cowboys fan.)
I was told once, that a man wrote a book, which said: To master anything, one must put forth 10,000 hours to become great at anything.

That being said, keep up the good work!
:) thanks, im working on some evolved mask as we type, so lets hope those turn out well too.

They all look pretty good except for Phill. Phill just looks wrong.

Corie look awesome, the improvements I would suggest for it are; 1. Increase the length of all the fingers and the thumb by just a little
2. Change the lime green to something else.

Aaron is your best one. I love what you did whith his mouth.

It seems not many people like Phill's, and im thinking about doing a side view of this to show that hte fingers wrap around the head.

The Problem with Phill is that the nose is too big and bland. If you put some sort of pattern on the nose and make it a bit thinner it will look better.

I think Phill's seems a little strange because of how narrow the mask is and that big chunk in the middle doesn't add a whole lot to it. Matt's and Brad's, and Ryan's might be the best ones.

Brad: My favorite of the bunch. I like the fact it's not symmetrical. It gives it more character. The eyes remind me of Ichigo, though.

Amanda: I think it's strange that the cat mask doesn't have teeth that resemble a cat. Grimmjow's a panther, and his mask has fangs like a cat. It adds depth and realism to something that kind of needs it, since a hollow mask is in and of itself a fantasy thing. As is, this mask has a lower half that looks like it belongs elsewhere.

Aaron: Just curious, does Aaron have a big skull? Anyway. I don't like the colors. The masks I like the most are ones where you left a bit of white, because that adds the highest degree of value and contrast to the mask. It is, after all, something to represent a skull, so I don't think it should be overly colored. Detailed shape yes, almost completely covered in color, no.

Corie: The color is bad. Try going for something less neon. Darker, richer colors are more dynamic and give a heightened sense of power. If you must use that neon color, use it as a highlight, where it would actually fit its role much better. And I'm curious to see what the mask would look like with anatomically correct wrist bones instead of the flat ones.

Matt: Reminds of a Transformers/Wolverine thing. Not too bad. I don't have too much to say about this one because I have no idea about Matt's personality.

Nick: This is all I have to say about this one. Reminds me of Cthulhu. Just a little.

Phil: The man must have a massive nose. Disregarding that, the colors are horrendous and melt into each other to make a big mess. I might like this one better if I could clearly define the facial structure without having the colors to deal with.

Will: The top of the mask is too narrow, making the horns look like they are incorrectly placed. I don't like the mouth section either. It would probably help to make that area look more defined, meaning, more realistic, because as it is, the teeth look incredibly out of place.

Ryan: ...I generally don't like this one. My personal preference is for something that is not symmetrical (aka Brad), and is Ryan's personality so bland as to warrant this mask? It looks like you just look a couple spikes and colored them. There is extremely little personality in this one, I think.

Reminds me of the hollow masks from Bleach.

I like Amanda best but I'm a sucker for fox(like)masks.

Thanks for all the feedback, and to answere your questions, Yes, Aaron has a massive head, like, watermellon sized, And yes, Ryan is a bland dick, the type of person that is just following the will of one of his body parts if you know what i mean.
