Projects-Dev's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ovina's Character Sheet (2021)]

critique is that it's bizarre to have an "underwater" as a Like. I expected swimming, scuba diving, sea wildlife, but not "underwater" which is pretty vague

also the shade could be more interesting, it's a bit too close to the original color imo

[Dissolving]

I don't mean to be a downer, but sketches and B&W in general tend to look better than quickly-done colored artworks

JimmyBiscuit responds:

Well the color took longer than the b&w

[SARVENTE]

some of the lines are a bit jagged, but not bad!

[Tem Shop <3]

that's adorable! though the cardboard box isn't equivalently sizes on both sizes, even with the justification of perspective and depth

considering how random and silly she is and her items are, I expected the most ludicrous of items to be properly rendered and shaded in the back to "pop out" much like Tem

devoidgazer responds:

I haven't realized how off the perspective was until you told me, thank you! Yeah, looking at it now, if I were to redraw it I would have definitely fixed the perspective and the item placement. I appreciate the critique I'm glad

[#13 - Red Mage]

more confident lines and shade could be in-place

[Sam & Max: Freelance Funkers]

Max's eye color is just black though, but you might be onto something by making it orangish

Sam doesn't feel like he's putting his hands under his pocket, as much as under his shirt which also doesn't make much sense

there's a lot of lines and shades that could use sharpening by using an eraser on the tips

Sam's tie doesn't emmit any shade aside from the bottom, which give us the idea that the lighting is coming from the ceiling. However, that's contradicted by Max's head and ears which say bottom. Max's foot also say the lighting is coming from the top however. There's a ton of contradiction and confusion on where the light is coming from

NeilLad responds:

I know I was referencing some piece of artwork with Max's eye color but I'll be damned if I can find it again.

I'll keep that in mind for Sam's arm, I was referencing the model sheet when I positioned it like that, but I got the overlap with the coat and the positioning completely wrong.

I agree, Max's ears and ear insides were giving me a good deal of grief, I could stand to touch them up a bit.

Ill look up more shading references in the future in order to get it down pat. There are a lot of logistics to making shading look good so tackling that subject is a beast I am not looking forward to confronting. Thank you for all your feedback mate, it is ALWAYS appreciated and feel free to comment on my other stuff if you'd like.

["Are you afraid of the dark?"]

that's pretty neat

[Lady Dimitrescu]

the flower, hands, and hat fall short. But, you put the work and time into the parts that matter. The personality. She has a wonderful one. Good job.

[G E O]

very well done, though the ear should be rotated slightly to stand up, and she's showing too much forehead in that one spot. Though honestly, this was tough to critique. Keep up the good work!

[monster mal concept]

love the design, though the overall rendering felt rushed. You can cheese-out on things far in the background, but you shouldn't for things close to the camera. Example; those 2-3 eggs on the sides

Potato-Turtle-Art responds:

Thanks my dude! I totally see what you mean I feel like I should definitely rework it alot
