Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Christmas evil]

lmao, what A Christmassy artwork. :D Love the symmetry in this, that evil glow, the skull design is awesome, the shading is nice, the sketchy style looks good. There's really no flaw except that contrast between green and purple. Keep it going!

DIWAKAR responds:

Thanx

[Tatto]

Woo, that dragon looks awesome! The flames in the background look cool too, but they're not the perfect fit IMO, it's like it's too widely spread compared to the character, maybe if it covered the entire canvas? Or how about just surrounding the dragon? Silhouette is definitely the best part. Keep it going!

DIWAKAR responds:

Thank you

[Emotion]

This is a pretty cool image, not sure that centered tear drop really fits in /white outlines maybe? or no outlines?) but the character's great, nice shading and form, and the shift in color's nice, conveys the emotion somehow. As for image quality, maybe export as better quality? Especially around the text the pixels are real blurred.

DIWAKAR responds:

Thanks for the advise LOL

[AilieTheWolf]

This turned out awesome! So many different styles and details within the image, like the painting (very realistic interpretation of the Sanji poster), the partially shaded Oh-Sama credit, the keyboard (which is so detailed I'm almost wondering if you used a template for that?) and best of all that fiery background picture. The flames are surely from Google, but how about the tree? If you made that too it's incredibly slick for something drawn in Flash.

I like the way the background merges with the rest of the picture, with subtle glow and a fence as a border, Sanji looks great, that laser crotch lmao... with the painting blocking the tail a bit it's not entirely clear that it's Allie getting rid of 'annoying people' until you've read the description. Nice work on smooth forms and on shadows, though the shadow on the glass seems to fall in the wrong direction considering the shadow of her arm. Nice work!

Oh-Sama responds:

Thank you so much for your detailed review and sorry for my disappointing reply, I'm still a novice btw so I didn't draw everything:

-The sketchy looking picture on the screen was taken from Ailie's art
-Sanji's portrait was traced in Flash from his original bounty portrait
-The keyboard is a real keyboard picture I found on google. I applied the free transform tool on it and tried my best to give it a 3D look but finally I think it's always flat
-The background fire and the tree are alike, but I wasted lots of time finding the best blending mode to be used :(
-The tree was the final detail I added. I was going to draw one but I found that I have spent lots of time on this picture, you know placing objects within the stage until a final satisfaction takes lots of time for a novice such as me, so I used a template instead... pretty disappointing :(

Apart from those "tiny details :P" everything else was made by me:
--The smartass school boy, or dumbass I don't know which is correct...
-AilieTheWolf: Most of the time spent on this piece was devoted to this character. It's the first thing I have detailed from the sketch. The ring, the horns are supposed to express the good/evil duality, the smile to make her more friendly, the pose to add a bit of disregard to the left side and the superman mark as symbol of strength. Yet I found it wasn't sufficient to express powerfulness so I placed muscles on her belly too :)
-The computer, the desk and the painting board: It was my first real attempt using a one point perspective. Also I placed that cup on the desk as a symbol of immortality. It's not any cup, it's the Holy Grail, the design was from a Yu-Gi-Oh spell. Now that you mention, it's true the shadow is falling on the wrong side, I thought the object would be receiving light from the flames on the back...
-The concept of the whole thing: Placing objects here and there and then doing it over and over again...

So looking at all of this and the experience I've earned making this piece, after all I think it was pretty much worth it :)

[Salad finger & friends]

That's a pretty awesome clayfigure! Wonder how big it is? He doesn't look that big, so by the looks of it those tiny puppet characters must've been pretty difficult to make. Great form, smooth and detailed, and good photo quality too. Keep it up!

Princess1upz responds:

Thanks! He is about the size of a pointer finger :)

[nyan domo]

lmao, looks like an idea for a game! :) Simple; neat drawing. Keep it going!

InsertName42 responds:

lol yeah, my (note: OLDER) sister drew this based om a fridge magnet we have :P

[lonely island on stormy seas]

Best piece of yours I've seen so far! The two white dots to the lower right look a bit out of place, but apart from that it's all great, both dimensional and with the right lifgting. I like how you see both the water surface and the formations below it, and all in such simple detail. Keep it going!

-cd-

InsertName42 responds:

thanks!

This is a nice work! The octagonal pixels are a real giveaway as to what was used to draw it, but the form is good, background texture, character and all. No face though? Keep it going!

-cd-

InsertName42 responds:

thanks! you can see i tried some shadow in the bottom left, but it just tuned out like an ugly stain on the ground. i've tried the face but i personally looks better without. i think i'll upload that as well as some more characters in the near future.

[Giroffolo]

Haha, interesting critter! The form isn't as strange as the textures, it looks like the head of a bison, neck of a giraffe, foot of a human, body of a zebra, tail like a scorpion and eh... and then... and I have no idea what that last part is? Nice work!

-cd-

InsertName42 responds:

It's the pinky toe of a " IHaveNoIdeaSaurus"

oh yeah that does look like a scorpion lol i was going for snake
