Kinsei's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tile]

Well to Be Honest

I see very little merit in this.
I mean, all 3d programs have pump map settings.
Admitting this does look nice, but it seems more like a non public piece. Perhaps if you used the mapping to work up a design it would be better suited.

Darcshadow7 responds:

I kinda thought so too, but i just said "What the heck, ill put it in public.." But maybe i should put it in non-private...

Thanks!

[Cleavage]

it's ok...

It seems too flat.
As for anatomical flaws, even if this is suppose to be in perspective, the shoulders are far too wide in relation to the hips.
The legs seem too stiff and out of place as well. you should feel free to give some softness and mass to a females legs.
The face is not that memorable either

What is with all the blotchy marks on the paper around her, were you testing a new pen or something? it really is bothersome.

So in recap, things to fix
Pose,
Anatomy,
technique,
Clean up.

Good points: You seem to have have some practice under your belt, but you need more.

aba1 responds:

she is leaning forward thats why her sholders are bigger her pose is meant to be awkward almost as if her lags could give out i kinda wanted umm a orta half sideways loook i no it sounds like im beating round the crit but i accually did n the face well not big enough for alotta detail to look good on paper it was smaller

[Castle Crashing the Apple]

Dude, Awesome Sauce!

Honestly, I'm surprised your not in to carving of some sort.

Funny

... damn I want a apple now,,,,

bigjonny13 responds:

Lol, well I wanted to carve something for halloween, and I found an apple. It's not the easiest material to work with, but I managed alright for the first time.

[Bobby Lee Jones]

Well I said I would

And true to my word, I will.

it seems like you used a a brush with the opactiy turned to about 75%. This gets mostly noticeable the arms where you seemed to go over the same place twice.
For the head it seems like one pass.

Perhaps some underlying sketching on another layer before laying down solid lines would be a best course of action for this

I feel hat there should also be more to the picture, perhaps some more character with actual clothing and a setting, just to tell us more about Mr Bobby Lee here.

I have seen much much worse here on NG and other places on the net.

With Bobby's expression I think you should have went ahead with Angry Fac, even if only to relate to the Angry Fac inside joke, but thats a personal opinion, not a professional one

SuparEFG responds:

Angreh faic might have been better.

[Mew mew]

Tell me

Where did you make this from?

Lunarfirekitty responds:

is made in photoshop CS3

[My Pokemans - Team Tastic]

yum

Looks like Golduck got him some breakfast.
lol great picture
makes me wish my game boy and pokemon games weren't stolen so I can play some more.
Good job, great color choices, solid composition.
very nice.
5/5
10/10
Faved

Sabtastic responds:

Hey, thanks! :)
lol I used to own a bunch of the games way back (which is why I picked mostly original pokemon) but I have no clue where they ended up! :C

[illustrated fulp is my hostage]

pull the trigger!

Do it do it do it do it.
lol j/k
please don't kill tom.....
lol I like this, it's simple and funny at the same time. I hope it does get FP, this is the kind of good solid humor that Newgrounds was meant for.
Perhaps a follow up pick is needed after this gets FP or now, lol

dommi-fresh responds:

i was gunna do one with stamper and tom doing a pulp fiction ref. with me dead on the floor so i might do it if this goes down well.
i would be suprised if it did get FP

[Under Junction]

I'm Liking This

. The model seems solid and the maps are good, but the lighting is what gets me. I know that the atmosphere of this thing is suppose to be dark, and it feels like it should be dark. But it's almost too dark.
Adjust your lighting. What good is nice 3D models and maps if you cannot see them.
You can still have the scene retain the creepy feeling and at the same time make it where every one can see it.

your specular on the map came out real nice. What program did you use?
5/5
9/10

SkillZombie responds:

I used 3ds max to create the general landscape, but I use photoshop to touch it up afterwards.

[The Forbidden Kiss]

Very Nicely Done

I bet a lot of time did go in to this, the detail alone is worth noting.
Although very inuyasha-ish I can live with that.
a few more of these and you'll have no problems getting in to the art portal
for this alone, I will recommend you, and give a 10/10.
I would five a 5/5 but what can you do, right?

Nanashi-Hikaru responds:

Thank you vary much for the recommendation.
I'm Glad you enjoy this, it's not likely I'll do something of this detail for some time.

(Sorry I took so long to reply, I was just waiting to be scouted first)

[My sketch]

Well...

I give a 3 for effort, but you really need to improve on anatomy and composition.
perhaps some color would be nice as well

Yamem responds:

Thanks for the advice I wasn't expecting much anyways cause it's a pencil sketch, thanks anway though.
