J-Nelson's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Grime Wine Part three]

Interesting cartoon

I'm liking the facial expressions.

JWBalsley responds:

Thanks a lot, he's a fun character!

Cheers!

[H.U.N.K.2]

Nice work

The text looks like you just slapped it on, though. Try to make it more interesting.

GabrieleB responds:

Tx i agree , totally

[Fishman]

Cool

A neat, creative design. Maybe you could add some scales to it or something.

Owenn responds:

Yeah, I'm still fleshing it out. I'll probably add to it in the future

[Grey loves Fry]

Great

I like your use of highlights. The creature could use some darker shades on it.

TreasurePlanet responds:

i agree!
thank you very much for your review

[The Consumer]

Background and character should interact

You should add some green to that creature because the light passing through the green clouds should be green.

GoddaM responds:

aye! that IS what is missing : } I'll need to update it (was also thinking of adding some noxious sort of vapor rising from the "lake" waddaya think?

[Dated C0rupt3d Statue]

Nice

The dirt under the grass could use some detail.

coruptedGames responds:

Does already have detail but ill add some more thanks (:

[PSIDOG]

Improve shading

nice. Try getting darker shading for more high-contrast. The eye could use some extra detail (eyelashes, etc.).

Franckrodri responds:

Ok , thanks !

[mace incoming]

Great

Very nice. But I feel you could define the left leg a little more, show where the knee is and such.

kmau responds:

I agree, however the few swift lines of the leg make the movement appear more fluent if you know what I mean.

[Romantic Cruise Comic]

Clean it up some

Take out those hatching lines. They are quite messy and don't mesh well with the coloring style you've chosen. The moving wine in the glasses is a nice touch to suggest movement, but I think you could take the idea further with some motion lines and such.

Eric-McTrainshit responds:

Thanks for the review. I've implemented some of your advice and removed most of the thatching lines and changed the color of the motion lines.

It should be mentioned that this drawing was originally drawn with pencils and scanned improperly on a poor scanner. It was penciled lightly and the were many erasure marks and shading everywhere. It was a bit of a challenge to clean up, took nearly 11 hours of constant work to clean it and color it. Mainly because it was hard to differentiate the extra marks/smudges and missing lines. It would have been faster to trace it, but that would completely defeat the purpose I was aiming for.
