octopus58's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Worldbuilding: Galarantes]

This looks like a very nice, peaceful setting :)
I love how lush and soft you made everything look, the greenery was perfectly done without colliding with itself too much. The house and structures in general look very cleanly lined, colored and detailed. And just as a little thing, the blur in the background is a great touch to emphasize depth. Great work, keep it coming!

BMBrice responds:

Thank you! If I remember right, it actually did take a long time to get all the lineart done and it drove me nuts lol.

[Commission - Pepsiman Riders]

Another really nice picture from you, I love your style! The linework for this one is very detailed and really shows how chiseled Pepsiman is. I also love the pose, it has a lot of depth to it. The background is also a nice little touch. Great work, and keep it coming :D

[Commission - Garnet Riders]

You gave this picture a very interesting shading style, I like it! I really like the comic like feel of it (if that makes sense), I don't see it very often. The actual linework is also very clean, and the non single color shading is also very nicely done. I like the posing you gave her too, it has some personality to it. Great work, keep it up!

JT0907 responds:

Thanks for the critique, I really appreciate it!
Tho I have to point out, the shading style in all my posts named "(something) Riders" is a replication of the style used in the official artworks of the first Sonic Riders game.
The drawing itself was completely done from scratch by me, just gotta give credits where credits are due.

[Sly Cooper]

I never played any sly cooper games, but I really like how you drew this. The pose is very dynamic and interesting, the shading with the light sources is done perfectly and gives good depth, and the background is simple yet fits perfectly to the style. Just great work in general, keep it up!

GameWarsStudios responds:

Thank you very much

[Aether Man]

This is really cool! It looks like it fits perfectly within the Megaman style, and has a very interesting design. I love the color scheme used, and the posing is great as well. Feels like a powerful villain type. The effects on the head and the chest parts are also great! Keep up the awesome work :)

[metal sonic]

Awesome drawing of an awesome character! I first off gotta point out I love how you drew Stardust Speedway in the background. It's very fitting but also just looks very stylized and nice. As for Metal himself, I love how you drew him! The linework is perfect, the shading is amazing, and the posing fits him very well. I especially love the subtle shading on the eyes, and the shading on his core. Great work, keep it up!

[DR. Livesey]

Growing up watching Cherkassky's cartoons, it's really nice to see fan art of his work :)
I love how you pretty much drew it perfectly in style, especially the head shape, jaw, nose and teeth. The expression is also perfectly suiting of his character, so that was a nice touch! Great job on this in general, keep it up :D

[ONE OF THESE DAYS]

I love that array of Sunflowers! They look really nicely drawn, and have great shading on them. You also drew the two people and their clothing items really well, I love the line work and shading on them very much. And the sun poking through between the two is just such a nice touch! Great work on this, keep it up :)

Pommisc responds:

Thank you so much!! I tried to spend a lot more time on this one and I think it paid off :) thank you for your kind review!

[Xurkitree]

That's an awesome depiction of Xurkitree, almost as if it was real! I love how you drew the head the most probably, but the hands and complicated body wiring are awesome in this too. And the background you made is perfectly fitting for the Pokemon. Awesome job, keep it coming :D

[Chilling]

kyogur hungy...

but for real this is awesome lol. I love the expression you gave Pikachu, and the perfect posing you did between the two Pokemon. The water is drawn really well, and the red outlines on Kyogre are sick. Just generally the whole picture is awesome, keep up the great work!
