lairlair's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Raven's Revenge]

Great! If I may suggest something : I think the snow is "too white". It would probably benefit some darker areas. I know snow is supposed to be white, but I feel like such a contrast catches the attention a little too much. The hair of the character on the other hand is hard to see because it's so dark. Maybe a light outline would help? Like what's explained in this tutorial : https://youtu.be/XVo5IcY9Mbo
But again, I think this is really good work :)

TheAfroDude responds:

Thanks a lot for the advice, really appreciated!

[Party Fowl]

I love the concept (well to be fair I love penguins to begin with). But the texturing is very well executed and I really like the coloured outlines. Really good job

KillerPinkArt responds:

Thanks!!

[Ronin (Artwork Remake)]

Really great style! I'm fond of the lighting and the general "watery look", if that makes any sense. The focus on the face is also very well done

M00nrise responds:

Thank you very much. The style of the original artwork differs quite a bit. normally it looks more realistic.
But in my style, I try to maintain focus on the parts that are more important. In this case, indeed, the face. The eye especially.
On the other hand you can see that the background is less important due to the lack of detail.

Thank you for your comment ^^

[Airplane - Level Concept Art]

Well done! I really like the general vibe. I think it's pretty obvious that the cactus were replicated though

MonsterStudio responds:

Thanks! Glad you liked it.
The Cactus are displayed more as to represent the general idea of how the the level should be, as well as to complement the scenery.
There will be more diversity regarding this matter.

[Sonic Cycle Test Animation]

Hey well done! Just a little comment, the first few frames it feels like sonic is shrinking in size in a bit of a weird manner. I don't know if it's intentional but I feel like the cycle would be better off without it. But this is totally cool for a first try, keep up the good work!

SparksChannel6 responds:

Thank you for the respond!! And yeah the shrinking part was intentional. I don't know happened but again I'm new to 2D animation. But thanks again for your feedback !!:)

[Cleansing Cavern - Inktober 10/03/2016]

Neat! Good pose and I like the water texturing.
I feel like the perspective is a little dodgy though, like the character and the background have different perspective applied to them.

Pariswinkle responds:

Thank you so much! And I appreciate your honesty; I do feel that I need to work on my perspective more, and I think that will be the next thing that I practice. Again, thank you for the review!
