Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[WIP crazylove (sketch)]

Interesting to see how this thing started out. Looks like the image was flipped entirely for the final version? Wonder why? Looks good.

alternativeartist responds:

Yes It was flipped and the reason why is that I used the wrong ink to do the line work SO when I went to watercolour it , it smudged really badly . So I decided to use my light box to reline it on the back of the peice instead of starting all over!

A truthful re-interpretation of a classic stage! I've never heard of this specific game before, but looks like something I'd like. All things 1989 are of special significance too. Really detailed piece this one, and water color's a difficult art for detail. Nice work!

alternativeartist responds:

Thanks so much!

[Monday mermaid]

Hmm... are mermaids on Monday's the traditional thing? Looks good!

[Love in an asylum]

Is that... Deadpool out there in the hallway? Interesting how differently you could perceive the context here: if she's imagining the character outside the door, or imagining someone else entirely (looking the other way), and the character at the door is the real one. Who's she thinking of; who's the character at the door; how long can she maintain that effortless backbend without arms? Plenty to wonder about here! Nice piece.

alternativeartist responds:

Haha yes the twisted mind has many possibilities . Thanks!

[Nibelheim [close up]]

Another pretty mysterious piece. Looks good, and it feels like the fuzzy tone is all that hints at incompletion. Smooth form; vibrant color.

Kaolinn responds:

Thank you so much for your opinion, I appreciate it immensely. And thank you for pointing out the fuzziness, I somehow persuaded myself it's not a big deal, now I'm sure I have to clean it out. Thank you so much.

[Hello World]

Nice idea with that brush like a wand; swift strokes of magical artistry trailing the air, almost as if there's a canvas of glass; the artist on the other side. Both bright and somber, and the darkness is like a layer of mystery and metaphorical magic. Is it a personal portrait btw? Wonder what the full text on that T-shirt says? Moderately flashy, fluent; intricate introduction! Nice work.

-cd-

Kaolinn responds:

Again, thank you so much, I am surprised at the things you picked up from a simple ID I tried to create. Yes, it was supposed to be an accurate self portrait for a study, but it became much too stylized in the process and the wand/brush is a nod to my childhood favourite Sailor Moon - she had all these magic scepters and the brush (or stylus pen) is as close as I can get to real-life magic.

The shirt is what I was wearing at the time, I got it at Metal Camp festival.

Thank you again for your wonderful opinion.

Pretty smooth character art! All that's missing now is color. :) Nice work.

VividThought responds:

Thanks!

[bunny girl]

Hmm... what strikes me as odd here is that the glasses are two different types entirely, seems like usually you'd have a tray with the same types. :P Also, might be more natural if they were slightly see-through? The Bunny Girl looks great though!

[catgirl relaxing]

Them techniques are looking pretty good so far! Sooth; styleful character art. Line work's a bit sketchy on parts, but with soft outlines it doesn't seem to matter much. Nice work.

[The world is yours]

The statue looks pretty nice, good shading especially, though the bright red text is a bit of a sharp contrast. Also somewhat odd background texture, feels like it steals away from the focus a bit, maybe more natural scenery, or a plain color could fit better? Keep it going!
