Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[hand drawn test]

This is a GIF that... stops?! I didn't know you could do that. The character here looks almost somewhat like Minus hmmm... guess this project never happened btw?

Also for some reason really feel like using ask.com right now, had forgotten about that place completely. Inspiring GIF.

[STEEP]

Standing soloatop amountain... pretty impressive! The jagged landscape in the background doesn't look all that realistic, but stylish, and the colors blend together nicely. Bit of a strange wavery overlay though, when you look closer... wonder where that's from? Seems almost like dunes of sand? Overall nice piece.

YakovlevArt responds:

Thanks man! It's inspired by that game Steep about skiing and snowboarding. Looks like fun. I think that effect is from a textured brush I used and then stretched that layer.

[Memories - Concept Speedpaint]

Compared to the last one this feels a bit more unnatural, both in the fuzzy forms and the color (bit too orange?), but it's a dreamy scene too. Hazy like from a memory. I really like the element of nature in these too. Of vivid and natural forms, no too straight lines, no traces of civilization except the 'representatives' of it... that give a bit of a link to ourselves. Life. Relatability. Very nice.

[A brighter day - Concept Speedpaint]

For forty five minutes this is impressively detailed! The strokes are broad, sure, but the motive still comes across so wholesome... I love how the light falls in through the clouds, and the contrast with the harsh weather/land. Like the cliff the parade of humans weather the weather, and look towards the light....

hey're so small, too. Great perspective.

Alexandrowic responds:

Wow, thanks!!!

[Oogie Boogie dance]

A smooth and strongly-green-looking monster! :D Love the style.

[51 Black Panther and Shuri]

Really crisp character work! Though the dos on Shuri's face... maybe too much? Not sure if that's how it is with the actual character (I assume it is), but in pixel/smaller form maybe fewer/smaller would come across better. Black Panther looks flawless otherwise, and I love the style of the tiles/lightning. Background logo fits in nicely too.

ScepterDPinoy responds:

Thank you. I was expecting some criticism because I am very concern how this diorama turns out to be a bit decent but not that great.

The background logo needs some modification in the future so the characters will be visible in the front layer to prevent distraction from the logo.

[Cat Naps]

he/she looks so happy. :) Blissful rest like only a can might accomplish... the fuzzy watercolor-like tone works well with the motive too... can't really tell if it's digital or no? Almost like it could be... graphite? Nice work.

YakovlevArt responds:

Oh that's really cool! You're right about the watercolor tone. It's digital, but Now that you mention it you're right.

[Somewhere Other Chapter 20-20]

And an even more vicious foe approaches, it seems. XD Or friend...

[Caterpie]

Caterpie looking like someone outta DBZ in this one! :D Awesome hybrid. Lighting, color and everything: just perfect.
