XwaynecoltX's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Borderlands]

I like it

Well this is ok i thought, it did have some color but not much, you did have the color in the right spots to focus on, the color itself seemed abit on the light side so maybe a suggestion would be to deepen the colors abit, also some shades could be set up in the distance so the art piece doesnt seem so bland

My suggestion to improve on this one would be to add some deeper colors and also some shades in the distance just behind the character

magicswordz responds:

Fair review

I don't exactly have many colored pens, so thought to emphasize the key points of the art
scanner didn't exactly do the best job~ but yeah~ darker shading would have been better

And I guess some sort of background, maybe a pattern would be good~ thanks for the idea

thanks for the critique

[I'm Venom, rawr.]

Lol interesting

Heh well this was interesting it was also kinda funny and amusing. i thought you could have made it on a more "LARGER" scale and such, and i wouldnt mind seeing some more color and all, but what you have here, is pretty neat just needs more and maybe more visual clarity

How to improve? well make the canvas larger have a bigger print of what you are presenting, and a touch of color would also be nice

TheFishyOne responds:

The thing is that I've made in on a smaaall corner on the back of my art block. As you can see the "background" is carton.

And I repeat : it was made on a small corner.

And what colour could I add? Venom's black afterall, right?

[PRIMATES! (7/7)]

This was notbad

Its really good actually you kinda made it how it really is i think, i love the mixture of all the differant poses and such, it was kinda neat and it gave it abit more reality there, and you did well on the element of where they live aswell, all and all a nice piece i thought, keep up the good work

Now this could be improved i suppose, maybe some more plants and flowers to reflect the envirment abit more, anyways nice job

Lundsfryd responds:

Thanks for your kind words. I will take into account next time around :)

[Annie Mays]

strange but i like it

Now this was strange but I like it. You have an eye for detail like the enlarged eye. Good detail there. But not just that you gave it some humor with your wacky design so awesome job and good luck on your next stuff

Make more wacky characters in the distance

Chickenlump responds:

Do you sign all of your posts like a pretentious faggot?

[SpiralCore]

wow

Wow this is so awesome. Not just because my face color is purple and all but because this is awesome in its own right. The design itself is wicked. I think it needs more lighting effects though. Like the lighted points could be brighter.

Improve on this with more lighting effects on the already lighted points

tdwkiller responds:

Hey, ye i tried to make it that way, but i can't do much about it, if i try to change it the rest of the colours will change to much aswell, and i'm not that good photoshop or gimp.

But thx for ur review ;)

[fart]

hmmm interesting

Hey now that was interesting and did give me a laugh or two. I like how you had it in a sorta comic strip. I would have liked to see it more in a comic book form. But this was still amusing. It was confusing at first. But like I said still funny

To improve you could make it more like comic book style and more dialog text would help

peixeaquatico responds:

yep :>

[Inxdemia]

Notbad

~~REVIEW~~
Hmm well you really do have something to draw about when bored and thats not a bad thing, and with pen theres lots of differant little drawings here, while you only did have a pen it would have been neat if somehow you came across a red pen aswell then you could add a touch of color, but what you do have is some creativeness and it shows, some of the stuff you have here could be touched up and cleaned up to really bringout that artistic feel, but for the most part it was alright

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
why not add a red pen in there somewhere maybe a few details or even outlines on some stuff

~X~

MonoFlauta responds:

haha thanks nice idea of the red pen or i can use green or others colors,
thanks a lot for the idea :p

nice review :p thanks for reviewing!

[Copic Sketch - Francesca]

I think its cute

~~REVIEW~~
Hehe well i think this lil art piece of yours is pretty cute its kinda like some sorta "AD POSTER" and because it does look like that im thinking you should add some "BORDERS/FRAMES" on the edges, its an idea to go with though

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
like above add some borders and or frames on the edges to give it that more poster feel

~X~

DeliciousOrange responds:

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by it looking like an "Ad Poster", but I have to say that personally I enjoy the broken, zig-zag background against the full-body character. Utilization and activation of the space is very important though, so I will certainly be careful in positioning my subject in the future.

[Pixel Tank]

Cute tank

~~REVIEW~~
this is a cute tank, and even the little tankman hehe thats a neat newgrounds related tank thing here, the backround "GRID" is too bland unless thats how it has to be , but regardless i thought it was pretty neat, you should color the tank abit

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Color the tank with some newground colors and the backround grid

~X~

J-qb responds:

thanks for the review! The grid was just there to help me with the perspective; not really supposed to add a whole lot to the pic. I thought about different colors but decided against it since black would be difficult to shade; and orange would be a bit weird for a tank dont you think?
