Thetageist's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Velyrrin]

Wow, really nice work! I especially like the blue lighting - it gives kind of a magical or moonlit feel to the piece.

imdrunkontea responds:

thank you :)

[Happy New Year]

Haha, does Flowey represent 2020 here? I love how he's just not sure what to do with himself since he's been left behind. I also like the floating lights and the fireworks in the colors of the human souls! The fireworks do look a bit close together, but I do like the little nod to the plot of Undertale! I don't know your AU, so is there a reason why they're sitting in a circle? But overall, I love the atmosphere of this piece and, once again, the colors you used really make it look magical. Nice work! Here's hoping for a great 2021!

LapisTheWolf responds:

Thank you . The circle like place they sit is a cave in my au where the echo flowers are where a crevice you can see the surface . Since Lapis used to be on the surface she found the spot where you can see the sky from the underground . This discovery led her to showing Sans the fireworks every year. Despite being underground they can both enjoy some surface related activities even though they can't quite get there. Flowey on the other hand hates people and the surface. He was invited anyway. But , chooses to linger in the shadows of the fire works.

[animatic thingy]

The initial parts looked a bit stiff - like, to me, it would've been better if the closing eyes, blushing, and extended arms happened at the same time, and it looks especially stiff when Lapis does it. I also would've liked it if you'd had a few frames of them actually hugging, as it jumps from them extending their arms to suddenly being holding each other. In the frames where they're together, Lapis also looks a bit smaller in comparison to Sans than you've drawn her in the past. But you've definitely improved in terms of how you draw her from an anatomy/proportions standpoint, and the frames where she moves in to kiss Sans especially look pretty good. Glad to see you continuing to try out animatics!

LapisTheWolf responds:

tysm!

[Happy New Year 2.0]

Alright, who's the math teacher at this party?

Jokes aside, I love the humor in this comic and the way it's drawn. (After so many great funny comics from you, I'm running out of sophisticated-sounding ways to say "I like your comic", haha!) Nice work! Happy New Year! Here's hoping for a great 2021!

ZeTrystan responds:

Hahaha, well it's always appreciated!
And happy new year to you as well!

[Double Minded - LapisTheWolf]

The tears look a little cartoonish (I think it's the really bright blue), but I love what you did for the rest of the drawing. I especially like how Flowey's side of it looks much more chaotic and almost shaky than Asriel's side - it definitely illustrates their personalities, as well as the atmosphere of the player's encounters with them, very well. :)

Note - I'm not sure if it's necessary to put your username in the title of the piece, since Newgrounds's layout always puts the artist's username somewhere visible and close to the title (in that little box with the artist info, in the name of the browser tab, beneath the title where it shows up on the Art Portal.)

LapisTheWolf responds:

Tysm and I post these on twitter too which is why I put my name on each and every drawing just in case someone tries to pretend it's theirs(Which hasn't happened thankfully ) But , just in case XD

[Ivlis]

Congrats on the feature! Wow, I image searched Ivlis to look at his design, and you did such a great job taking a character who is normally drawn in a simple anime style and drawing him really realistically! And yes, you did owe this to yourself, after working hard and doing an awesome job on those Jojos!

PkBlitz responds:

Thank you sooooo much! And thank you for all the support as always!

[Firbolg Nap Time]

AAAAA IT'S SO ADORABLE

I love the designs of the little forest spirits! I want to hug all of them and Noah too! The lighting and colors also make this piece look very magical. Perfectly captures the feeling of lying down on a grassy hill in the afternoon sun.

ZeTrystan responds:

Well thank you!
Most of them are inspired by the real design of leshies, but I added my little twist to those, so happy you like them!

And it's perfect if it's the feeling you get. I managed to do it!

[omega floweeeyy]

Great job drawing Omega Flowey, and I like what you did with the human souls! (I'll give you a break from the critiques again, I know I've been sending them a lot haha)

LapisTheWolf responds:

tysm! honestly I've never had someone be so nice about drawing so consistently !

[Meet you in 2021!]

It's good to see you back! I hope you're doing well too. I love this animated pixel art, it's beautiful and atmospheric, and so smooth! Your skills never cease to impress me! Here's hoping for a great 2021 on Newgrounds!

Ioruko responds:

Thanks so much! I'm glad my art makes you think so! Hope 2021 will be good to you!

[Glory to arstotzka]

The syncing seems a bit weird, I'm not sure how it's supposed to look, can you clarify? Otherwise, this is an awesome tribute to a fun game!

Sorapoi responds:

It was supposed to have a smooth flow from the top to bottom, but I didn't realize/see the issues until long after I've finished the piece. And thanks!
