Cyberdevil's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[A Normal Day Outside (Pixel Day 2021)]

Like Madness and Pixel Day combined, sort of. :) Feels like the sun and the shade disrupts that pixel feeling a bit, but apart from that: solid pixels. Simple form but looks good!

sackydzNG responds:

Yeah, I probably should work on shading in pixel art.

Also thanks for the criticism! It was really appreciated.

Ah you got some pixel work done too VS! :D Nice scene... I love the background, the rays of light and green... though if the rabbits weren't sitting in a boat I honestly wouldn't have thought there was any water here. XD Looks so green it seems more grass. A clearing in a deep forest, though with the boat you realize the plants are indeed a bit more water-based such...

Boat shape maybe a little simple/edgy compared to everything else, and I feel like the rabbit dad(?)'s face is also just a little overly edgy somehow, eyebrows maybe a little too accentuated considering the girl doesn't have any at all, little odd ears maybe, I get the impression most time went into the background first, and then the characters might've been a little rushed? Or maybe background's just easier to draw? Overall they look great too though.

Feelgood mood motive and I do love nature scenes as such.

VortexSupernova responds:

Aww I told it to myself xD I was thinking if should I put aliasing (soft edges) or not to the main subjects... turned out it didnt go well. Thanks for telling me ;D This looked rushed yeah, but this took me around 1-2 hour (its legthy for me) compared to the original which was 15 mins. Ahh yeah, the dads ears seem too long, but the girl's is correct. Hmmm I should've put bluish green base color for the water so it doesnt seem grass....

[Otter Goes Blep]

Looking good!

UndyingSong responds:

Thank u CD!! ♡

[Car in a snowy yard]

Detail level in this is just straight up amazing. :O All those branches. The glow. The car and snow. It's all so real it's surreal. I didn't even notice the windows until I skimmed back through these reviews, and indeed the way the lights change the color of the falling snow feels like something most might've missed out on whilst making this...

The falling pixels are otherwise maybe the one more unnatural part here, impossibly square as they are scaled up like this, but all the more suitable somehow for that same reason! And they do really enhance the mood.

So atmospheric. Curious how long something like this might take to make? Gotta be a while...

YuushioPixels responds:

Hell ye, gotta keep her looking classy even while going nude

[Pixel Day 2021]

Seems almost unnaturally smooth for a legit pixel piece but: looking really cool!

-cd-

Nana responds:

Thanks. While I was finding pixel pens, I was adjusting the size and trying to make it as pixelated as possible. Which is why it looks smooth from a side view

[Lady alchemist]

Unexpectedly atmospheric! :O Nice.

EdiUzuki responds:

I appreciate it !

[Pixel Swamp Sunset]

Style really reminds me of early computer games back in the day. :D Movement not all fluent, and with only certain pixels that differ, but still so much detail... wasn't expecting to find that particular style so perfectly emulated here!

The seaweed/shrubbery stuff may be moving almost as fire and the loop seems to restart before it finishes but overall: real nice.

Happy Pixel Day Seven!

DrSevenSeizeMD responds:

Thank you! I'm gonna work really hard on animating another one!

[Pixel Day 2021]

Flawless loop. :) Underwater ambiance at its finest, though... is it under ground level? Not sure. The way things wave and float it almost seems to be, but maybe not, maybe this is ground and not deepest sea... or else that flag seems like it should be floating the other way. ;)

Either way: looks great. So soothing. Spirits a moving. Festivities a brewing. Really nice...

maruki responds:

It was meant to be a thicket in which very little sunlight reached because of plant overgrowth (that's why the fungi are so big there), but underwater falls nicely into it as well. Thank you!

[Potato catto]

Unexpected detail level in this one. :O Those eyes in particular... nice.

And actually getting compared to Picasso. :D High praise.

MoeAnguish responds:

Thank you! and yeah, i'm proud lol
