MegaGold's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mk-2]

Good use of shading. I quite enjoy the gloomy atmosphere and pathetic fallacy happening in this. You can feel the emotions that this robot is going through. I also like the little details like the cracks on his eye. Having a worn out feeling which can also come off as a metaphor for how the robot is feeling. Something like this also opens up your imagination and makes you think just how this picture came too be. Well done.

[Magmar]

What a tricky thumbnail used. I had to press it to see what was going on here. Why was it rated E, and now I know why. Very detailed with how Magmar looks. I don't recall if he did have a beak or not, but like I said, the details do stand out really making me take a closer look. The choices of color are quite nice as well!

[Genshin Impact]

I have 0 knowledge of Genshin, but this picture is seriously captivating and the thumbnail really caught my eye. There's so much going on here. The contrast with the night and light has a picture in a picture vibe. The shadows really hit too. Even with the smallest details like the stars in the night. Beautiful piece of work you got here.

Thank you very much !
Genshin menu is very simple, it's just a calm music and the background and before you load the world it made an animation with a door that construct itself and then send you to the loading screen, and depending on the hour of the day the background change and goes from day to sunset to night

[Halloween Something]

Festive and 8bit! Makes me wanna play some old-school games just looking at it.

May that man rest in paradise.

Pretty cool design given for this picture. It definitely resembles the late Robin Williams. I like the color palette that was chosen for this, really gives it an early 90's feel to it. The shading and contrast was also very well done. The detailing on the hair must have taken quite a while. The quality is also to notch. Overall it's a pretty impressive drawing. Great job.

[The Silent Saint]

Pretty decent.

It has the David Firth kind of feel to it. I like the way the outlining and shading is used in this pic. The way the facial hair is drawn looks pretty cool. The glare without seeing the pupils is a tad scary, but it works. It feels like a little more could have been added to this pic, like a body, but it's good for what it is. Good work.

[Steeeeven]

That's some pretty intense street art.

I had to look twice to realize I was looking at street art. The binding of isaac guys were well designed and are very well detailed. The eyes off the smaller one is flat out amazing. A huge variety of colors used as well. You even added lighting and shading which I imagine can't be easy with a spray paint can. Overall it's a piece of art... on a wall. Good job.

My deepest thanks for your feedback, this is amazing to read. :)

[Roberto]

Good stuff.

Pretty decent sprite. Looks exactly like the robot devil from futurama. It's also animated which is a nice touch. It's one of the bigger picture sprites I've seen, and even though the pixelation is blown up a bit, you can't really tell. You got his facial emotions down. His stance doesn't seem to be the same as the show, but I haven't seen the show for a while. He's holding has classic knife as well. Good job on this sprite.

[Inner Darkness]

Beautiful piece of art.

The amount of detail put in this whole picture is quite amazing. The way the lighting is done on the pants compared to the armor is marvelous. The facial expressions on the detailed face are of sorrow. The foggyness of the clouds look amazing. The type of outlining done has a very professional feel to it. The extreme uses of different shades of blue, red, etc have been done perfectly and just make this picture stand out completely. Beautiful work of art.

[Mr Potato - Painting]

A newgrounds classic.

After five years, it still stands the test of time and looks as amazing as I remember first seeing it. The size comparison of the root compared to the person always looked amazing. The outline of the characters also has such a cool look to it. The tree itself has so much detail. This drawing must have taken forever to make. The cloudy skies also just look absolutely beautiful. I'm not too sure if there's symbolism in the picture, but the point of view chosen for this picture was greatly thought out. Overall this drawing still looks great even to this day. Fantastic job.
