octopus58's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Apple]

Love how you did the shading and lighting in this! Also love the vibrant green you chose for the apple. Great work, keep it up!

[THE STARS ARE CALLING HIM...(Super Mario 64)]

This is really nice! I love the segmented lighting you gave on Mario for that kind of "old school" rendering feel, and the way you did the light pillar is very cool too (kind of in blurred chunks, its a cool touch). The pose is also nice, and I like how you kept the model close to how he actually looks like in m64. Great stuff, keep it up :D

zEt-Rk responds:

Thanks you ! I appreciate it! I really wanted this to feel like the og game !

[The Path Up]

This is really neat, I love the style you did here! It's pretty cool how well you drew the different phases of breakage, especially the last one that kind of looks like a landslide-ish. The shading is really nice, and the way the main picture kinda fades into the bg is also cool. Great work, keep it up!

Lihallerix responds:

Thank you! I learned a lot back when I made this one. Trying a lot of new things for the fade around the edges or methods to quickly redraw while also using layers to ensure the customer could easily switch between the three variations in the PSD files.

They wanted a full landslide at first, but also did not want to pay the extra for that big of a change so I gave them enough of a landslide for a compromise.

[Lovely Day For a Picnic - Animal Crossing]

This is so cute! I love how you chose watercolor for this, it gives the feeling a much lighter/happier mood I feel, and that matches up a lot to the relaxed mood of the whole animal crossing franchise. The setting is also really nice, and the way you drew the characters is perfect. Very beautiful, keep it up :D

[ink drawing of an eagle owl]

This is so nice! For some reason reminds me of illustrations I'd see as a kid in some older books. I really like this style, and also really appreciate the accurate depiction of the owl. The bow tie is also a really cute addition :)

Great work, keep it up!

STearleArt responds:

Thank you! I am definitely inspired by old school illustrations

[Kewtian Thunder God]

this reminds me of super sonic. Super sonic is yellow and this boy has yellow hair.

WRONG

[SP Superstar: Aniper's Revenge]

it's like a reference because one is bad and the other one is nt bad but he actually isn't bad either so it is very interesting such sad story

[SP Heroes]

I like the part where guppy flies by twisting his legs!11

[Toads in The Mansion]

They are not scared because they have an abnormal adrenal response due to brain damage in the hypothalamus (they were diagnosed with brain cancer on house)

FelixBlobDev responds:

Extremely uncanon. Go to the shameful SPeature corner and think about what you've done.

[Loveful Barakon]
