RandomPirate's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[November 2017 COTM entry]

Yes. Good. This just feels so... solid? Like everything about it is cohesive. Everything about it just feels clean and finished. Also, it reminds me a bit of "Don't Starve" so thumbs up for that.

iSkyquin responds:

Thank you so much! I love the game Don't starve, so that is a massive compliment! Sorry for the late reply, haven't been on new grounds recently, but thanks!

Beautiful use of lighting. Making me jealous, dude.

[UNDERTHESURFACE [COTM 2018] - Dancin' with the Stars]

I really like this concept. I also really like that the other figures are subtle enough that I didn't notice them at first. Thumbs up :)

CandySweetssJr responds:

Thank you :D. Happy that you liked it. Those other figures were hard to draw, since I've only recently gotten into figure drawing.

[A CHILL down the wooden SPINE]

Honestly one of my favorite things about this piece is that the girl doesn't actually have visible eyes.
I realize this was probably just due to the natural lack of detail due to distance, but there's just something particularly about the concept of a girl without eyes walking through a forest full of them.
If I were to give any suggestion for improvement, the main thing that I noticed was that the roots are kind of small, and they point straight down. In normal trees the roots fork and spread out underground almost as much as their branches do. But other than that, looks awesome. Keeping perspective, and making a whole scene work together as a whole is something that I personally struggle with. So I tip my hat to you, sir.

AtharvaPande responds:

@randompirate thank you for the valuable suggestion about the roots ,with a goal in mind to represent the idea I dominated the realism part , BUT no artist is perfect but still we can achieve at least 90% of it through such discussions. Please stay in touch. ....thanks again
