Thetageist's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[gay ppl]

The artwork's a little bit busy in the center, but I can feel your energy and excitement coming from every part of it! Really fun artwork! Happy Pride Month!

[NieR Replicant]

Dude, that's so awesome - both the art and the fact that you were commissioned this artwork by the actual voice actor! (How cool is that?!)

I love the lighting angles on the artwork combined with the wind physics and the background, it gives it kind of a dreamy feel. Great execution on the painting itself as always.

PkBlitz responds:

Mah man! Thank you so so much!! I'm glad you liked it :D

I want to pet the soft fur, but it looks a bit muddy. I think I'll wash this critter off first.

Once again, excellent and adorable design! Very unique-looking, too!

ZeTrystan responds:

Gonna need a lot of soap, ahahah.

[MUSCLE ELF]

That looks absolutely terrifying. I love it.

Great job with the stylized muscles on this Gaston elf.

Really cool, smooth animation! How the heck did you make all those spikes move like that? Was it point by point, or did you use some kind of Blender physics?

modifier magic

Really late review, but I love this! How did you do the sparkly effect on the dress, and how long did it take? Cool background too with the colored light sources in the back - almost a neon vibe, like a club.

pInkmoth responds:

Sparkly effect was a procedural normal map! And thank you :)

Dang, I love that dynamic pose and those effects, and the design is really cool! The whole thing conveys a kind of raw, wild power, which I think might be the case about this character, given the one side of their face that's more damaged and has a more wild/inhuman look to it. Really nice work!

Ooh, I like the grass/steel combo! I definitely see where you're using the steel aspect of it by including that hard shell - it wasn't as obvious of foreshadowing as the white and brown bits on Inferal and Kapycub, respectively, but I do get where that was going. And I love the square grass blades/leaves, they're really cool and simultaneously look techy and like plant life. Noice!

ZeTrystan responds:

Based on leaves on some other pokemons, but was trying to include it! :D
This one have to be the most subtle double typing design wise of the three, I think!

Very cute! I love the subtle details, like the lighting effects on the line art. The background's also cool, gives it a very dreamy feel.

[Master Fruit Farmer, Oren]

I have a question - how do you achieve painterly scenery like that in your backgrounds? I've always admired the backgrounds you create in your screenshot-style pictures, they really further the beauty of those artworks. Are there any tips you can give on backgrounds and scenery? Thanks!

Also, I love the picture as a whole. It's really beautiful, with the bright colors, great lighting, and sparkle effects, and I also laughed at the big orange and the humorous subtitle. Nice work!
