Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Wind]

The background wind stays the same... but the character art seems all new with this one. I like the gloss and simplicity, and though it looks all but forced it's a boulder-shattering meeting it seems... symbolic. Bugs me a little she's not in the middle of the frame, though.

BoMToons responds:

I agree about the centering thing, but I really wanted to include the full length of the scarves on the "wind." Definitely symbolism going on... ties into my thoughts about a fresh take on the Red Riding Hood story with the crow antagonist (that is also maybe friendly/redeemable at times?)

[Consider]

Pretty cool the way the color shines through. Another nice one!

BoMToons responds:

That intersecting of colors was a happy accident I embraced. You should check out the process vid on my Twitter or Instagram.

[Cradled]

Smooth work on the hands, and the bird... if this is a saga it seems this is where it all begins. Nice.

BoMToons responds:

This is probably my favorite of the series. The PoV on the bird from above is unique, and the semi-complementary color scheme really pops graphically for me.

[Red Hooded Crystal]

Not the same effectuate viciousness as with the crows but... I do like the style. Energy flowing free.

BoMToons responds:

I was toying with the idea of a mystical take on the Red Riding Hood story, and making the Crow-Wolf the antagonist.

[Crowseph]

Another really nice crow piece! Curious about the story with this recurring theme? Great color and a special style. These would really work well as paintings (on a wall-like).

BoMToons responds:

There's definitely some unity going on between pieces with the threads/wind stuff + lots of birds... I've really gotten into drawing birds since Inktober in 2017... I like visualizing the wind that elevates them and also sort of imbuing them with mystical personality as mediums that are connected to the fabric of the cosmos that unites everything...

[Big Bad Crow]

I really like the contrast with this one! And the detail on the fathers (though it's almost more fur than feather). The rid line and blazing frame... looks awesome. So dark, strong and vicious.

BoMToons responds:

Yeah, this is one of my faves. You should look at my Instagram to see the process video I posted for it. A few people have contacted me about making it into a t-shirt.

[Caw!]

Is that a... caw or a squawk? Aren't those two entirely different bird species sounds? :P Nice drawing though! Pattern, colors... it's an interesting mesh.

BoMToons responds:

Ha ha, I'm no onomatopoeia expert! Thanks for the note :-)

[Big Good]

It's like Mr. Universe, sculpting the sun. Or like Mr. Earth, shielding us from its radiant rays. Or like a mere human, believing he is so much bigger than he is, gazing into the light and dreaming of greatness... or like anything not related to this particular cosmic entity, but to an orb of light, and balls. A little boy imagining himself off into another world... I like how much this can mean the more you look at it. Nicely drawn too. The force of that shine really comes across too.

-cd-

BoMToons responds:

Thank you sir! I like that it can go in a lot of directions too... I kind of see this "being" as the weaver/origin of all the threads running through the related pieces, but I don't want to shoehorn interpretation!

[Reading YouTube Comments part 1]

It's a wonder you're still living and able to draw these comics after all this time; close encounters like this. XD YouTube definitely has some entertaining writers...

Comick responds:

So true!! Lmao I think my demon panic room helps while I slumber XB

[Sonic]

Didn't know there was a Sonic show going on, but this was a smooth GIF! Super fluent, speedy and a perfect loop to boot. Nice one.

gatekid3 responds:

Not really a show, a series of sonic mania animated shorts
