SMJ's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Popocatepetl e Iztaccihuatl]

Thanks for explaining the concept behind it, makes more sense when you know the little story. I really like the sky and clouds, makes a nice contrast to the cartoon style of the rest of the picture.

gusana responds:

Thank you! And no problem, art or design well-founded has a very different perspective n_n

[Love Inebriated Antilope]

Agree with everyone else, it's a pretty awsome piece and I can't really fault it. Like the detail you've got in on the skull and eye and also how you've used bit's of the drawing for the background, makes a nice composition.

PegasuTV responds:

Yeah, you can call my lazyness composition skills or something like that...
Thank you for saying that my little piece is gud.

Definitely a bit different but in a really good way. I'm curious though, but how did you create this? I especially like the different shades of orange and yellow, works really well.

Ghost21b responds:

I draw on paper then take a pic on my phone then I edit using contrast and warmth settings

[Study]

The face looks great with the highlights in like the eyes and on the tip of the nose. The teeth look a little flat, maybe just a touch of shine on them as im pretty sure even dirty teeth would have a glint on them fro saliva, but im being picky. I think if the main body had had a bit more time on it then it would finish it off nicely - unless of course it was deliberately kept simpler to keep more focus on the face. On the whole though it's a nice piece, good job!

Yeah, I have a lot of trouble with teeth, mainly because I don't really practice it enough, making them fit into the gums and making it look like they're little bumps is so hard D: I left the rest of the body less detailed to draw attention to the face but perhaps I should of worked into it more. Thanks for the great review!
