HipnikDragomir's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Coagulated Whirl Pool]

Here's why

I get that it's made digitally and is probably a wonder to make through that, it just looks like a bunch of mud swashed around. That and it's really simple. It does look nice when viewed in actual size, but that's it. It doesn't really seem "artistic". Plus, almost all Newgrounds users want instant appeal, not something that you have to appreciate.

penguin100 responds:

Art is a matter of perspective. I mean if a bunch of blurry blocks or splattered paint can be considered fine art and people will spend bags of money to get their hands on it just because a particular artist made it then why would you consider this not to be artistic. Simplicity can be a fantastic tool when making art and should not be underestimated. I understand that most newgrounds users want instant appeal, but looking at it at first glance without really "looking" at it then just tossing a one or less at it isn't really fair unless they can at least justify the fact.

[The Joker]

Good idea...

...but too simple. Having main man clown be disguised as a milk man is pretty devious, but it's just lacking. You should have coloured this and put in a background; specifically a scene, such as someone that was killed by the "milk", something, y'know?

RickAlabama responds:

Thanks, and I totally get what you're saying. I may color it in and add to the background one of these days; good suggestion by the way!

Zing

Great twist on the old song.
Stay classy.

ToonHole responds:

Remember to tip your waitresses and bartenders. Goodnight.

Fancy

Here's what would help:

-Work on the handle (the part you hold, I dunno what it's called), the trigger, and the little thing that loads the next bullet.
-Sharpen the lines of the gun.
-Give the bullets outlines
-The design on the "handle" is poorly done

Apart from that, it's pretty, especially the barrel and spinny clickitty thing.

soulsapper responds:

Thanks for the reponse man :) I haven't been on...for a long long while :P but reading this i'll upload it again finished :D

I've had too much on my mind and things to do.

[Alone]

Peaceful

It's a dandy little painting with very pretty greens and yellows. The trees look are very well made and the grass is not too shabby. The fence, though, has its problems. It's generally very muddy looking, especially on the left, and on the right the top stick is too bent.

Joshsouza responds:

Thanks for the criticism, I really appreciate it. Yeah, I noticed that I completely failed on the fences. But thanks again :D

[Dwight Schrute]

That neck

I recall how towering it is; along with the forehead. Good job on exaggerating the stand-out features. It's exactly like one of those "professional" cartoon of celebrity caricatures. Colouring is nice and so is the shading.

judio90 responds:

Thanks!!! I work a lot to exagerate well.

PD: Sorry for my english.

[Leaving]

Better

Like Little Leather Lady minus the inconsistencies I listed. Another good filter and very styled hair. The shirt is very well drawn, too, with the ripples and shading and all; it looks very realistic, though the left arm's sleeve end is lacking. The left hand is also odd-looking; you need to work on the fingers wrapping around the strap. The necklace (?) being chewn up is a little weird, though. If she had it between her teeth, showing, it would have looked better. Proportions are also a bit odd: very thin arms with a sizable torso looks unbalanced. Maybe it's the art style, in which case is excusable. Good job.

JusticeBustedUs responds:

Oh, that iss sorta my style. I like to go for a slightly improportional yet still easy to look at kind of girl. See, im actually an abstract artist, but i know almost nothing about photoshop so you cant really tell. Plus i dont have a scanner, so that also takes away its values (shading, line depth, etc. Thats also why its got a bit of a shadow on it) but one of these days, i hope to prove to people like you, im not as bad as i seem, hahah. And by people like you, i mean people who want artists to improve. You've been so helpful :D thank you so much

[Little Leather Lady]

Cool

Good figure and proportions. I also like the filter/colour scheme. Y'know. That red/orangey effect. Btw, you might want to fix the face; everything but the eyebrows are way out there and ridiculous.

JusticeBustedUs responds:

Hahah, yes. I hv to agree.. i didnt notice until i started messing with it on photoshop. Ill be sure to work on it though :D thank youu

[Leviticus]

LAWLZ

This is hilarious. It's always fun to see parodies of this image. Good job on not making it half-assed, along with making it accurate. Although, some proportions are odd, like Adam's tiny head and thick thighs.

Theo-art responds:

Shhh.. no one was supposed to know about those mistakes. I kid, you can only salvage so much when you make a mistake in colored pencil; I just told myself it was a parody and I could tell everyone I meant for it to be that way.

That line never seems to work.

I appreciate the review, thank you!
