J-Nelson's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cinna fan art]

Love the colors on this!

[Marblegate Chapter 1 Cover]

Looking forward to this! I like the color scheme/texture of this.

Rocktopus64 responds:

Thanks! I'm going to do a completely different art style for every chapter cover. This chapter theme was the Arts and Crafts movement of the 20th century.

[Marblegate Webcomic Teaser]

Lookin' forward to it!

Rocktopus64 responds:

Thanks! It was actually Monster Lands that inspired me a lot to make my own fantasy comic.

[Oh Mercy Me]

Simply beautiful.

[D&D Cleric 1]

I really like the armor on him.

Rocktopus64 responds:

Thanks for saying so!

[A.Case and her Basketball]

Spines don't bend like that!

On the plus side, the bike looks good.

lockebelmont responds:

For sure. I agree after looking at it. Live and learn. :)

[Fools in Love Part II]

I would recommend a background that would be more interesting and less cliche. On the plus side, your anatomy seems right and the poses are interesting.

[ooo a candle!]

The line work is sloppy and unclean. Neaten it up. The facial features are not aligned properly either, so try getting a reference for that. Just keep practicing.

[Harley Quinn]

The pose is rather static and she seems expressionless. Try to make her more lively.

JTmovie responds:

True. Thanks for the tips

[Martin Warp]

You should make different base greys for each thing to add further contrast in terms of the materials that make them up. For example, the tree bark should be much darker, the grass and leaves should be lighter, and the clothes can be various shades of grey. This will make everything stand out more, so that there is more than just your line art differentiating each part from the other.

Impkid responds:

That is a good critique, however my grayscale colouring style is based in the light, not in the colour of the elements. However, I will keep your advice in mind for future references, because it would be useful to separate and individualize each character and the background.
