Thetageist's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zooble]

Hi Nebulate! Not bad for a fully lined style that you haven’t attempted in a bit. The one thing I’d recommend practicing is keeping curvy tubes you draw a uniform width, and drawing with longer strokes to make your sketchy line art look smoother. Otherwise it’s pretty good!

Nebulate responds:

Thanks. Yeah, i know im not the best with curved tubes. I am drawing with outlines for the month of Oktober so i definitly coud use some guide of how to have a better understanding. But still thanks for the tips.

Good render.

If you’re looking for someone to scout you, there’s an NSFW Artist Hangout Thread in the Art Forum!

Edit: Asking someone to scout you is discouraged, but by showing up and talking, you'd likely eventually find someone who likes you enough to scout you.

SuperSlogger responds:

Oh really? Would I just leave a response asking for someone to scout me?

[Pomni the perfomer]

Really nice rendering - you seem to have improved a lot even since the last artwork you posted! Keep it up!

Theinkguy responds:

Appreciated man.

[Pixel Dolls | Forest Lords | Voidwalker]

I saw your post about not getting much feedback, and I agree that your work is very niche, but digital paper dolls are exactly my niche and I’m glad I came up check it out.

Well done overall, you rendered the details well with this style. My one point of confusion is why you posted screenshots of your own work - did the originals come out too small or similar? If so, I can help you figure out how to upscale your drawings in Piskel, that’s what I use for pixel art myself!

Maybe one way to get yourself some attention would be to team up with a programmer and make an entry for my Costume Jam, which is a game jam focused on dress-up games and virtual paper dolls like these. It ends on the 31st, so you’ll have time, there’s no judging stage, and I’ll be posting about all the entries that are made once the jam ends!

shadowfals responds:

Thank you for your feedback on this!

With too many things breaking around me, I don't think I can contribute to the Costume Jam. But that seems really fun! I'm looking forward to seeing what dress-up game creators share this month.

In answer to your question about the screenshots—I can't access the project files, currently. I was removing the posts from the Mastodon instance, so I put those up as placeholders until I can pull up the original images again.

Update on Oct 24, 2023: I've replaced the first screenshot. The rest is staying for my convenience... with the assumption it's not bothersome for others.

Update on May 4, 2023: No more screenshots!

Feels like it could be a comic cover, honestly! The ladder was a bit hard to tell in the cracked mirror version, but I can definitely imagine that something like that is hard to figure out.

Guileness responds:

Thanks! And yea, that ladder was a bit tricky. Probs should've added some steps to the front after all.

[Inktober XII: Pumpkin Spice Girl II [2K23]]

Looks like she could be a Purge character, perhaps, or something else slasher-related. Really cool design and style!

CobaltRogueX responds:

Thanks!

[Sayu with massive baboogas]

The artwork looks a little bit lopsided, I think it’s her face, but the colored lines were a really good choice! Keep going!

ProfessorEcto responds:

Thanks for the critique man, I woke up and made edits since I went to bed immediately after finishing, and decided I wanted to make some changes to make it look more like what I envisioned in my head.

Looks pretty good! Welcome to Newgrounds!
I feel like the background is a bit distracting with all the details, but I’m not sure how to render a spiderweb with dew on it in a better way, so I don’t have a good idea of how to guide you on that.

The other thing I’d recommend is starting with cel shading and then blurring it, rather than using an airbrush tool. It creates a smoother look overall for soft shading. Good work on the spider body, though, your line art looks mostly smooth!

lordgeniejulius responds:

Yeah. I'm pretty much new on Newgrounds.
Also. Thank you for you liking my special drawing on Serafina ^-^ but yeah... I appreciate you give my some feed back about my type artwork. calm and patiances... I will do think these issues in the future!

[Seattle]

I like this impressionist-looking take on it with the stylized waves!

mich-spich responds:

Thank you so much!

[Tomie with a toad]

The designs go well together!

dogmuth-behedog responds:

Toad magic. :D
