Projects-Dev's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bunny Armor]

Lovely design, though lacking shade though it is stylistic without one. I'm curious how her ears fold within the helmet however. It also feels like her head would need to shrink to fit too

Local-FH responds:

The lineart on her without the helmet was more of an exercise on my quality of lineart, I see what u mean tho

[Hat Kid & Niko ft Bow Kid]

It's two of my favorite characters! higher ratings if you included more bold shading.

Also Nico's hat doesn't sit too properly on her head, it's being flown upwards which doesn't make sense considering her ears are still intact just fine

thattechnique responds:

ooh good point =v = thanks !

[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

[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

[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.

[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

[megaphone]

very cute character, however the rendering on the phone and booth in general could've used 5 more minutes of slight smoothening

the phone doesn't hang too naturally either

NueSB responds:

noted, appreciate the critique

[Waiting for something to happen?]

That's pretty cool, I had a very similar type of character/enemy in mind but you did it way better. Kudos for your creativity

1LetterFromHell responds:

Thanks! I bet you would have done a great job too haha

[Go Pico!!]

The blast shading on the left-side gun is behind the gun, and you seemed very confused on whether you wanted a simple dark line-art, or colored as I see the hand on the right having both which defies the rest of the piece. The shading and lighting such as the finger lines and neck could be sharpened with an eraser.

If all of those were present, it would've been a 4 to 4.5 stars from me

jaxinabox responds:

thank you very much for the feedback!!

yea, i'll take that in mind with my next drawings.

[Domino Reference Sheet]

feels a bit rushed on the shade, but a very lovely character concept sheet. Way more welcoming with the custom fonts, background, and icons than I see in other concepts (The items on the right such as the football seem very rushed however.)

AtomicHamzter responds:

thanks for the feedback!! and yeah, i never really drew a soccer ball before, so i just scribbled the pentagons lol
