Deviation Actions
ProjectComment is a Group that provides Guaranteed & Constructive comments for the deviantART community.
In order to support those efforts, we encourage dedicated users to give comments too. For those who are critics, artists, or just helpful in the community, we now offer something in return for all that you do - be it helping the participants of ProjectComment, or the group itself!
This article focuses on awesome deviants, who have given fantastic comments, through excerpts of those comments, artwork by the deviants themselves, and much more! Your support in the article would be much appreciated.
Each month, ProjectComment will select one member from within the group to be our Spotlight, based on the comments we have seen in our gallery submissions! We choose this member based on the quality, and reliability of their comments and their dedication to the community.

Commented on Svearicus the faerie by TossarN.
"Nice work! The wings have a beautifully translucent texture, and the blue looks great!
However, I feel as if the torso is a bit awkward. The angle of the head suggests a 3/4 view, but the torso is drawn head-on, which creates a rather strange pose. I'd suggest making the right (his left) shoulder obscure the chest slightly, since it wold be closer to the 'camera' than the other. Personally, I'd make the shoulders a touch smaller as well, but that's just my opinion.
Also, I'd recommend making the left (his right) eye a bit smaller, as his head is turned slightly. Like his shoulder, the left eye is farther away from the 'camera' than the other, so it would be a bit smaller.
That was a bit long...let me know if I can clarify anything! [...]

"This is very nice shot. I really like the golden light. To me it's very peaceful I also like the combination of soft light and that thorny plant. The tree log next to the plant also adds to the picture. Everything is nice here. I only have some suggestions:
Try to crop one third of the picture from the left hand side. I think the plant itself is perfectly enough to say the story of this image. On the left hand side it's empty and nothing interesting.[...]"

Q. How often do you comment?
Lucky Draw Selection
I Am a TreeI am a deciduous tree
Growin from my roots individual-ly.
From the stump
Up from the trunk
And out sproutin' branches
Weavin'
Reason for each season
Spring's in.
I blossom,
Shower me in flowers
Because I feel damn awesome.
Squirrels cuddle me-
Synonymous to girls lovin' me-
No need to get the mud off me-
Livin off of the puddle Be-
Cause, I got chlorophyll
On the forest hill
And any inch of growth
Is more than a chore I killed.
Fall's around the corner, and I can still breathe,
But it hurts because all my leaves...leave.
Weather's ranging, colors changing.
Like an abstract painting.
Picture framing
Leaves to the floor
The wind and rakes score.
I have no eyes but I can feel a departure,
Then winter hits the door, I become a skeleton
Any signs of life, I am repellin' it..
My branches broke 'cause they're delicate
My birds flyin' with seagulls, pelicans.
And it's so cold that my bark is sub-degree
Carry extra layers if you wanna come with me.
Dare me to sleep past February.
Spring's back

AwakeningOn the first day, the day that I woke, all I could see was light.
It was a gradual thing, the awakening. Slowly I became aware of being, of existing, and the humming in my mind rose to a maximum. I lay there for a while, letting thoughts drift over my body, moving my fingers one by one. Then my eyes fluttered open and I could see nothing but whiteness. The gauzy blur faded and I was able to make out shapes: a door, a clock. I turned my head fractionally to the side to see a table, washed in white like everything else. No windows. There was a movement in the corner of my eye and then I felt a cool touch on my arm. I exhaled, then blacked out.
When I came to, I was greeted with a face. I drew in a sharp breath and it disappeared from my line of vision as I pushed away the layers of starched fabric pinning me down. I sat up. There was a figure standing by the door, facing away from me as if in thought. As it turned, I saw again that same face that had startled me, so full of hatred and co
A Matter of Time
A Matter of Time
You think Sandy's got vengeance in its eyes?
You see vengeance everywhere don’t you?
In the fast, wet winds churning around your Queens apartment
In the lightning flashes on Ocean Parkway where we walked once like a
Couple of refugees.
The waves will be taller than you, they’re saying
But I imagine you sitting on a grey dock somewhere
Oblivious of official warnings
Your dark wavy hair sticking to your forehead of scattered lies
And losses,
Your hard, careless body framed in endless brine.
I might not be allowed to love you anymore
But the rules of capturing, consuming and catenating happen to be
As fluid as that road where water now rushes in the direction of
Gaping news cameras.
If you think Sandy’s got vengeance in its eyes
Why don’t you stop hiding behind words and walls and webs
And have a staring contest with me?

Magic Week - Reverse Caption
The power flowed into him, filling his lungs, spreading out in his blood like oxygen, and settling into the marrow of his bones. He felt himself smile in a way that he hadn't since he was a boy learning to cast his first spell. He had devoted decades to the study of magic, but now, now he was magic. A glow lit the trees around him. He couldn't be sure if it was the setting sun, or if the glow came from his own skin. A beetle crawled on the ground nearby, seemingly unconcerned with what it had just witnessed, but yet its movements were in time with his heartbeat. A bird in the sky flapped its wings to the same rhythm. A breeze plucked at his hair and clothes. He began to dance, slowly at first; he followed the wind, and the wind followed him. He moved faster, twirling and leaping, until even the fallen leaves were dancing around him. When he stopped, all was still. He smiled again, and raised his arms to the sky. The first stars were visible. He watched them for a long
