Thetageist's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Antique]

Love this design and artwork - the composition especially! I wonder how it’d look if you tried for a more dramatic atmosphere, with deeper shadows, darker backgrounds, and maybe a dark filter over the whole thing?

[Ballin' n' Blastin']

You should totally make this into a color palette or art style challenge. More hype for Antonblast!

Better line work here too as well! I feel like you could work a bit on drawing arms, as well as making the glasses frames consistent in size, but overall it’s improving!

M-kirbs responds:

Thanks a bunch! I know some people already made Blastsonas too, so I wanted to join in on that train, it's actually fun to do when you get a grasp of the Blast artstyle!

[New sona]

It’s interesting that you switched from a realistic drawing of yourself to a more fantasy version, because I think I’m about to do that too. Can you tell me how you came up with your sona as a way of presenting yourself online?

Love your style, by the way.

Edit: That’s actually kinda beautiful that you made characters for different parts of yourself. Maybe I should try that a little as well - I also find it hard to describe myself in one aesthetic or characterization.

Tysm! 😊 edit : I say ‘to’ way too many times, idk how to English XD or explain properly….

At first, I just doodled myself at random of random things that pop up in my mind or experience but ever since I became a mom, I transformed my sona every time and slowly. from a four armed galaxy sona to semi human semi demon to orni to triplets XD. I’m not good at describing things as u can see 🤣 but later on I split the many versions of my sona to their separate characters with abilities etc…I kinda made a sona army of different parts of ‘me’ without realizing it XD

Juubi, Helena/Bunexa, Rosalia and Elizabeth are all old/present sonas that are different parts of me, tho Elizabeth is the most closest to real me (which I should draw her more of lol)

[Artist vs Sona]

Your art style is frickin’ cool and I love that spacey character design! Can you tell me how you came up with your sona as a way of presenting yourself online?

[krita drawing]

I love the grunged-up look and the dark atmosphere!

[Crystal island]

I love the subtle physics you added in the animation! You could upload that as a looping gif too if you want. The colors are beautiful as well.

ravensoulsp responds:

thanks a lot!

[TMSM Sailor Venus]

Excellent gif, very dynamic! And you did a great adaptation of what was originally such a janky art style, hehe. If anyone were to reboot a show like that and make it great, it'd be you.

Honestly, I researched the adaptation and there's a lot of good and bad points. I do like the characters being more... visually distinct, shall we say, though pink lipstick doesn't look good at all on the American version of Sailor Jupiter, for various reasons. I also actually kinda prefer this orange and yellow scheme for Sailor Venus, though in the anime version, yellow details would definitely get lost up against that long blonde hair.

[Gingersid]

Pretty good shading and color overall (though I’d practice it with the hair). I’d also recommend using some references for both face proportions and overall body anatomy in this anime style - I feel like a lot of the body parts here have weird size differences.

Otherwise, this looks really good! You’ve got a good sense of color and light.

[sketch commission: missapples]

I love her design, and I love how you complimented it with the pose and the butterfly-shaped explosion in the background!

pluckyshroom responds:

thank you so much! doin the wing graffiti was a lot of fun ^^

[glass rainbow ~ Sleeve Artwork]

It’s beautiful. I love how you incorporated the pride flag colors into the stained glass, it all feels like it blends together somehow. And the fire looks great too!

I want to give you a virtual hug. I hope you’re finding a lot of support on here, and can somehow find more places to be supported in real life as well.
