octopus58's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Get Ready]

Interesting use of only three colors for a whole piece. I love how you used each color to draw a picture with quite a considerable amount of detail! The perspective work on this is also very nice, with the main focus being the person in the middle. Keep going at it!

GreenyGray responds:

Thanks man!! I really appreciate the feedback!

[Blue Eye]

The reflection on the iris is insane! I really think it's amazing how you captured a light source and drew shadows on it at the same time, that's awesome. The eyelashes and eyebrow are very well drawn too. Can't wait to see more :D

ArtTriad responds:

Thank you very much again. Im truly glad

[Ganondorf]

This looks very powerful, but also amazing for pixelart! I love how Ganon in the back is more shadowed, and it is very obvious compared to the foreground where you drew a very menacing Ganondorf. The detail on this is astonishing, and very accurate to original design. I overall really enjoyed this, keep it up!

Xlyphon responds:

I'm very glad you liked it! I really appreciate this kind of feedback. I wanted to reach this felling of beast ganon when you fight him in the original N64 version, this shadowed being, with the only thing that you can see clearly being his glowing eyes.

[friend]

Ooh this is spooky, but I love the color schemes you got here. I love the different shades of blue with light variation like pink/green in some areas. The background looks very staticy which helps with the weird/creepy atmosphere. I also can't get over the texture you used through the whole piece, it really looks like it was painted with a paintbrush! Great stylistic choices you got here, keep it up :)

deadrealitys responds:

wow this is the most detailed thing anyone has said about my art ever! thank you so much <3

[Lo-Fi Hip Hop]

I accidentally clicked on the image and I didn't realize how big the canvas actually is, I love the tiny canvas like texture you use! The character looks very well drawn, and so do the props around her room, but I think my favorite part is the background. Super cool and relaxing. Great job once again, keep it up :)

Lexissketches responds:

Thank you!! What a kind response :)

[Hedgehog Day]

Way past cool! I love this very popping, vibrant style you got here, it looks so smooth. The lighting on it is sick as well, I love how you used yellow for the blue. The background is also very nice to contrast the focus. Great work, keep it coming!

KAMiQuasi responds:

Thanks dude, much appreciated!

[You Know The Rules!]

Oh wow I didn't know it was his birthday lol, but anyways this is really great work! You made Rick look very young but I think that's pretty cool, and I absolutely love the shading you gave his hair. The glasses have a very interesting texture too. The most impressive thing I find though is the shadows you put behind the fence, it's probably very hard to do that kind of lighting! Great work, keep it up :)

glassydiatom responds:

Aye the more you know haha, thanks so much for the review! This was based off of a screenshot from the music video so yeah he's young in here. I'm super proud of the highlights and shading on the hair so I'm super hyped that you noted about that!!! The background was kinda easy tbh but it's just super simplified. Thank you again!!!

[He Sit]

I love this picture so much, you managed to give the caterpillar such a fuzzy look in a cartoony style. The texture of the brush was definitely made good use of for the fuzziness! I also love the big eyes it just looks very cute and curious. Keep up the nice work :)

Lexissketches responds:

Thank you so much! Your comment made my day :)

[Mukgar +]

That Gengar looks very creepy, I love it! The smoothness on this picture was very well done, I like how the light hits the top of his head but is more "rippled" on his ears and arms. The texture is also very cool, as it really gives off the slimy look. The background is also a nice touch with the black splatters and gradient. Nice work :)

BallerKiD responds:

omg thank you very much ;-;

[snow day!]

What a cozy looking picture! I love how the colors, texture and style you used create a very cozy atmosphere. One of my favorite small things about this art is how the snowman has different sizes and shapes for each button, smile piece and eyes. It really shows how much effort you put in to the artwork. Great job, keep drawing!

thank you so much!!!!
