Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dawn of San Pescado]

Sooo much detail in those skies! Impressive. The hillside's paved with layers, the grass in different shades, the light so strong it almost cuts rock, the bridge in the distance, the flock of birds again (becoming like a trademark thing), and cityscape towering in the distance.

I love the angle and color, though maybe the shrubbery is a bit too green, especially in front of the city, and the rounded blocks of the city don't really give a concrete (as in the material) impression, but the detail level overall is just insane.

Three characters standing at the edge there too. Inspiring.

Hey Cyberdevil,

Thanks a lot for the comment, as always!
Yeah, good point on the grass and the building problem. It's actually my first time drawing grass into a concept art, and I still need to study more on it. The building was sort of intended though, to look as much as simple as possible. But I think it also looks too squishy haha.

Oh, the flock of birds! Yeah, I enjoy adding those into my artwork, and I guess I *do* need to make it as a trademark haha — since I love birds (except pigeons and some other domestic birds, eww).

Anyways, I'm glad you liked the drawing! I struggled a lot — especially with lighting and the sky — on this one, and I'm glad it worked well!

[Tribute to Stephen Hillenburg]

I have no idea who Stephen Hillenburg is, but considering the character selection I guess he's these guys creator huh. May be RIP! Had some good times with these guys over the years.

[Incredible Helen]

Bit odd form with the torso twist there, and proportions overall (isn't her head a bit small?), but you do give focus to that most important body part here! Looking good. A fiery/cosmic background too.

Newtypemo responds:

Yeah. I was trying to go for a perspective view on her butt to give it more focus. It looks kinda off but still good.

[Bird Album]

These birds! :D So cute. So colorful. So detailed, too. The feathers come across maybe a bit softer than they are feathery, but otherwise the detail seems on point. The pink border really stands out too, wonder if that's good or no... it doesn't look bad per say but seems like maybe the birds should be the main focus. Anyway: love the color. The orange wisdom in particular.

silenceartwork responds:

yea I went a little to soft with my painting technique on portions of the feather, and the pink border is a really good comment, Ill keep that in mind for next time, thanks!

[Always]

Seems like a dark kind of love story. :) Don't recognize the characters, but it's an intriguing scene... a grotesque kind of longing, a bizarre kind of embrace, a good show that: nothing else really matters, only love.

silenceartwork responds:

thank you! the skull bird is actually just a personal character of mine!

[Undyne in undies]

And Undyne looking good! Smooth form and solid shading, and in great shape no less.

[Lum]

Love the colorful style with this, outlines in different shades, bright and euphoric and uplifting. Really nice!

[Game On]

Looks like something great's about to commence here! :D Nice work, and seen from the best angle too. She's got that glow.

The pink and light green contrasts are a bit... contrasting, but still she does manage to steal my focus somehow...

[Postapocalyptic helments concepts.]

Pretty gritty set of helmets here! Some entertaining motives, some really truthful ones, and all with realistic-looking texture, rust etc. Curious what this is for? Some game?

Also: centering would've been nice. Small details...

-cd-

DoktorNo responds:

I had a series of character concepts in post-apo setting, but it become shelved for later... I definitely return to this project soon!

[Juri Han from Street Fighter]

Juri Han looking pretty good! Smooth work. Good shading. The angle of her one arm/hand looks a bit strange, and the outlines are almost too noticeable around some details, like her toes nails, but overall looking good.

-cd-

DoktorNo responds:

These outlines... I think I should do it more in comic book style... or abandon outlines and do it as painting. :) Thank you for your comment.
