Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Insanity]

Seems like multiple layers of the same image, with various filters; parts cut out? Technically it seems this'd be a photoshop, but I do like the style. Only thing that cuts in a bit is the linear shadow on the floor/border. Rest is... really abstract. Strange vibe...

Orphanlast responds:

Photoshop has the ability of taking a crap load of pictures and compiling them into a panoramic. After it did that, I started slapping some of the original, none compiled, images it. I forgot what else I did with it. But yeah. It was fun. But working on this one image convinced me, I wouldn't be making this comic strip with my buddy.

[Sexy Angel]

NG crops the image, not just the thumbnail? When you posted this one in the thread I was thinking the face looked a bit masculine somehow - I still get that impression, and how the thigh's a bit bubble on both sides/form not as aesthetic as possible there... but overall form is great. The hair flows, the wings... a bit small for flight, but angels are magical beings I guess. :) Nice work.

Orphanlast responds:

Oh hey, I guess it didn't crop it.

I thought she'd look more adorable with small wings.

[Failed Font]

What happened after the D? Even if the other letters aren't that great it'd be interesting to see the rest of them, however far they went. Up to this point it really does look really appealing!

-cd-

Orphanlast responds:

Well it went all the way to Z. And they all looked nice. And I took tons of pictures from different angles, trying to find a way to include most or all of the letters. But it just looked like a piece of paper with Letters on it.

This one makes you want more. So this is the one I kept.

[President Obama]

Oh man what a distortion. XD The quality's a bit fuzzy, and the glow around the hair a bit choppy, but the form itself is just perfect! Cool piece.

-cd-

Orphanlast responds:

Yeah -- I wasn't working with the highest resolution images. This is what happens when you phtoshop what you can find on Google Images.

[Panoramic Background]

Looks almost like this was modeled in 3D...? That panorama/fish eye effect really is pretty cool, even if the colors/textures aren't all that natural. Not sure what gives that effect since certain textures do look pretty spot-on... maybe it's the windows, and how shadows don't seem to affect the walls. Feels like a great start, but not fully finished. Interesting perspective!

-cd-

Orphanlast responds:

Nah man, I have an entire video series showing me make this start to finish. No 3D models.

I did have problems trying to make the windows look right.

Maybe I just need to up the contrast. Because I did put the shadows on the walls.

[58 Celeste diorama]

Nice style! The rising background energy/shapes seem spread out in a natural way, and the art/winged strawberry look great. The platform seems so square in comparison but... it's clearly game art that way. :) As for being antisocial hmm... live streams maybe? No idea about the original art style though, seems you maybe do!

-cd-

ScepterDPinoy responds:

I'll see some live streams in the future.

[Romantic Apocalypse -Draw with Jazza]

Now this one turned out pretty cool! Nice work with the coloring, and textures too, especially the one on the metal, and character. The woman... she looks a bit gray, rather than ethereal as I'd picture her, and the sky hazy but... not like a mist, or rain, or cloud, but almost like Northern lights. I feel the background and woman are the parts that could look better the most, but otherwise very thorough work!

-cd-

OatmealPecheneg responds:

Weak light and sad clouds, even colors are not so soft. This colors carry not a thought but emotions.This coloring was inspired by cold dark plase wich I wisited before.

[Oh Hai Mark]

Probably yeah! Really nice colors in this one, and the texture by the sand in particular. The sky looks watercolored, but waves... seemed like they were something else. Nice piece.

-cd-

DrSevenSeizeMD responds:

It's all watercolor, even the waves. :-) I used the watercolor that comes in tubes and you add water. (because it was given to me for free lol) so where you see white, I kinda caked it on and did not add water.

[Flying Giraffe]

Such a fun banner! :D The star sparkling in the background, the carnivorous birds giving chase, the cybernetic giraffe soaring effortlessly through the blue... imagination runs astray! Great play.

-cd-

funymony responds:

Haha, yeah. The fact it has no wings makes it funny to me. Just some table-legged animal soaring through the air.
