Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pluto]

One of the few long-running anime shows I'll probably never get into, for *some* reason. :) But it's a nice drawing! Slick line work and smooth shading, and I do like that method of adding glow via white lines, always makes the character stand out more IMO. Nice work.

[Koi Pond]

Hmm first impression was he was running, but there do seem to be a few fishes swimming about his head, and bubbles, and algae. It has all the elements of a pond, and yet not the pond itself - or maybe it's just his pose that doesn't feel like an obviously underwater one? Drawing itself looks great though.

NessaHolm responds:

thank you for the feedback! Maybe an underwater reference will help me in the future :)

[Squidhat]

What a happy picture. Warm colors too! When you're feeling down, if there are nae squid hats around, just have a look at this. ;) Nice work.

[JoJovember 2 - King Nothing]

That's some pretty impressive detail on all those puzzle pieces man, on this puzzlepieceman! Nice.

Thanks!

[fargikarp]

Pretty cool. :)

[Naruto and Hinata]

A pretty feelgood piece. :) One of those moments we keep waiting on in the anime too... wonder if it'll ever become a reality, or always be up to the viewer. Good thing there's fan art like this. ;) Nice work.

[Durotan]

An impressive portrait! Really amazing sketches you're making here detailed and powerful in their somber tones.

[PokeMashupChallenge]

Looking at your other art before this it somehow seems really basi, but still not a bad card! Character texture/gradient is probably the one part that could use more polish. Line work's good, and I like the background in particular, both fiery and gray. Good contrasts.

[Kitty]

Beautiful work! Looks amazingly realistic. And cute. Detail on the head is a level apart from the rest of the body, though it seems to add a sense of distance/focus too. Very nice.

[My Alex progress 2014-2016]

She really has evolved through the years! Interesting process to see, and you've really improved on drawing body parts, and natural shading. Style still feels a bit unpolished/sketchy/sometimes disproportionate, but with all this progress in such a short time I'm really looking forward to seeing how she'll evolve in just another year! :D In a way, it's like she's growing up through your artworks as well, she looks a lot more grown-up and sensual in the later pieces. Nice work!

TheEarGuy responds:

Thank you! I always feel like I've started doing art way too late. I've spent my whole teen years believing it's not even worth trying to draw and it wasn't until the college started that I started doodling... on my tablet, in gimp, with my very fingers
If it wasn't for Alex and other OCs of mine, I probably would have given up, but visualising characters for my little writing was the thing that kept me going.

Thanks for your imput again, this piece is really important to me and a couple words of advice and encouragment is all I really ever needed. Cheers!
