Thetageist's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Merry Christmas!]

The falling snow, sleeping, and snowflake hologram animations are done pretty well. Only tiny thing I noticed is I initially thought Maria was looking at (dear lord I forgot his name) when she did the happy eyes, it was a tiny bit hard to tell. But that's just a tiny nitpick. Nice!

Ioruko responds:

Thank you! Yes, it's sometimes hard to make a facial expression look as you intend in such a small place of just a few pixels, but it's interesting to see how just one pixel can tell so much information about the subject in this medium

[Radiant Christmas and a Fissile New Year]

The fact that Gas Mask Girl is painting the spike green with toxic waste to supposedly be a tree really takes the cake. I love it.

pInkmoth responds:

Thaaaaank you!!

[MORE LIKE MOON UM UM DRIP LMAO]

*old Southern man voice* Five Nights at Freddy’s ain’t what it used to be. Back in my day, you only got one room, you never saw your character, the animatronics didn’t talk to ya and there weren’t no friendly ones!

Jokes aside, this is really cool. I like how you did the (presumably) glow in the dark stars and the glowing eyes up against the dark shading.

ty,, the skrunkly

[Ideac 2021]

Maybe it'd be good to take notes on the brushes you used for your artworks so you can come back to them later?

Either way, I love the details in this one like the sweater texture and the patterns in the background!

IDeactive responds:

i did that actually, recently i reinstalled ibis paint so this is why i was confused at first
but now my brushes should be normal now

[Basil Wildwink - Magic Cowboy]

Fantasy worlds need more cowboys. I love the gun arm and the magic effects around the sombrero! Everything has a really cool design. Also love the desert background with the crystals.

ZeTrystan responds:

Thanks!
Can't wait to start playing as him, that's for sure!

[Christmas thing haha]

I'd say the left pose looks more weird than the right, but either way I see a number of things that went well - the shading and folds on Ideac's costume look good, and I like the shading on the eyes and hair.

IDeactive responds:

yeah i really love the shading of that one, but yeah the problems are just the pose, i shouldve redone the sketch since i made it in early november and i wasnt as good as i'm now

['Gappy']

I like the bubbles on this one - including the one around the "o", the effect in his eyes, and the couple by his collar that have the little stars in them. Fabric physics looks good too!

PkBlitz responds:

Thank you! :)

[malice jammin!]

Of course she's headbanging. I could see her being into music that's supposedly hardcore but mainly just popular among edgy kids. I'll let everyone else fill in the blanks there.

Very fluid movement. Nice!

pInkmoth responds:

thank you :)

[Kwampus]

I love him. Where’d you get the plant motif, out of curiosity? I think it works!

ZeTrystan responds:

Wasn't on purpose, just changed the colors until I found something that clicked for me! :D

[Demon]

You're right, I do see the Krampus vibes. I mean, you are in the right time of year. I like the animalistic design and color scheme, it's really cool.

ArtDeepMind responds:

Thank you, I switch the styles all the time, Id like to stick to one for a while. I enjoy this painterly stuff.
