MegaGold's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[#52: Meowth]

Pretty good remake of Meowth. Giving it a more realistic cat look worked out quite well. The colors used for the fur also look good and looks like a lot of effort was put into it. The shading in the legs was also very well done. Pretty good pic for a rough sketch. Keep on making them the way you make them, you do it well.

[Pico vs Larry]

From seeing your older submission on the art portal, I can see your art has improved leaps and bounds. A pretty nice looking pico day picture. Both guys portrayed in this have a badass sociopathic look to them. The fiery edges and background really have a Pico's School feel to it. The shading on both characters are also exceptionally well done. Really liking the artwork on the clothing. Beautiful pic, good job.

[boredom sketch of me]

It definitely looks like it was made on paint, but better than anything I've ever made on paint. The moon looks like a big banana, but the background looks pretty. It looks a lot of effort was made making this picture. You definitely have potential. I recommend getting some type of Photoshop software and seeing how far your artistic mind can go.

It was made on paint and the fact that I actually got some sort of comment is quite a surprise for me. Thanks on seeing my potential and recommendation of art software. I appreciate it.

[apple]

The shading and lighting on the apple and plate are very well done. It looks like a pic that took great efforts, but at the same time was fun to make. The color of the plate and apple compared to the background contrast very well. The apple also looks delicious. The water droplets give it a realistic look, even though we all know its just a painting. Sometimes you don't need to draw a bowl of fruit, sometimes you just need to draw the apple. Good work.

[dots dots dots ...]

It's pretty cool that a bunch of dots could bring out such a wonderful look for a pic. The apathetic look of the character contrasted with the background looks pretty solid, if though there are no solid lines at all in this pic. Quite amazing how a bunch of dots could add so much depth to a pic. Nice on the eyes.

[Funny Bunny]

Very trippy looking 3d art. The thumbnail just looked so bizarre, had to take a closer look. The sky to grass contrast looks pretty cool and authentic. The rabbit also looks cool. I never really seen anything like this before. The way how the grass disappears into nothing gives that feel of isolation. The quality of the pic is amazing. This is an older pictures, but it would be really cool to see something like this animation. Cool picture.

[CLOCK FLAG]

A very simple design, and it looks like not much effort was put into it. Of course this is an older submission, so I do realize peoples drawing have gotten better over the years. There's a lot of pixel breaking in the outer edges of the circle. the lines could have also been straight. This is kind of nitpicking, but the seconds hand seems a bit out of place. Good stuff.

[Shade Effect]

The quality of the pic isn't that good, but attempt of shading was pretty decent. The background kind of hurts my eyes. The face drawing is simple, but the facial expression brought out is still done quite well. The pic is older and hasn't aged too well, but the art portal is improved exponentially. I'm sure your newer art is better, but good first attempt for shading.

FlashStorm responds:

Thanks!
Yes, there was a lot to work on here. I was actually pondering the idea of deleting it but ultimately decided against it, so people can see how much I improve over the years.

[A wild Dukkan appeared!]

Very simple image, but the gameboy palette will always bring out a nostalgic feel to it. Was a little confused what I was looking at, till I read the comments. Could see it quite a bit more after that. It's good that it was blown up a bit, but not too much. I couldn't see an over inflated stretch of this picture looking too pretty. Good stuff.

[NG STAFF GAYPARTY]

A good picture that still looks flawless even years after being made. Each character drawn out has their own unique personality and they are all very accurate. It also has the classic JohnnyUtah feel for it. The background has the classic nostalgic newgrounds feel to it. A bunch of newgrounds elites crammed into one pic. The lighting is also brilliant. Excellent job.
