WizardlyWalrusKing's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lady]

welcome to the world of digital, my dude! c:
It's hard to get used to the hand-eye coordination, but just keep finishing pieces from start to finish on it and you'll get it eventually!

For this piece, I think the first thing I noticed is you appear to have clashing perspectives. for the city you should have been referencing two vanishing points. These two vanishing points would be placed on the horizon of the piece with one towards the right and one towards the left. These vanishing points should be NO LESS than a 90 degree angle apart from the viewer of this picture (not the woman, me, viewing this piece).

Moving onto this woman You really gotta study humans to get them down. They are complex as fuck and I study them everyday and still fail to impress myself with my work.

Things to look into:
3D SHAPES
PERPECTIVE
CONSTRUCTION OF OBJECTS USING 3D SHAPES
PROPORTIONS
GESTURE

I'm drunk atm, if you have any other questions, feel free to DM me.

ClarkTaylor responds:

Hi,

thaks for your constructiv criticism! I've tried to learn and relearn many of the things you pointed out. Maybe I did a better job in my new painting?

so most stuff is looking good here.
hands are pretty decent, good proportions, boobs look like they are bulging due to the clothes and table....

however... your shading style needs work. It looks like it was airbrushed. I would suggest looking into either: cel shading OR blending techniques.

KDuzellz responds:

Thanks for the feedback and I will definitely go look at shading techniques.

[Fembot Palutena]

You should really try different poses.
You'll develop so much better than just doing these forward-facing head-forward poses over and over again. Theres only so much you can do and learn from a pose like this.

SuperTechno324 responds:

Thanks for the advice. Admittedly, I've been wanting to try more poses, but, I can't get them to look right. ;^^

[The butt stool]

I do like the fluidity of the pose but she kind of looks like a cyclops

insanetoons responds:

Thanks, and i understand it may seem that way, i could have made a clearer separation.

I feel like her eyes are a bit lifeless. I have this problem too in some of my pieces, and I don't know why, it just looks like it.

GreendayFox responds:

It might be because of where I put the eyes but I see what you mean. I really appreciate the feedback! :3

[Feelin' Good]

Out of your entire gallery this is your worst. Yet, it is still incredible. Nice work, I love this too!

JesterDK responds:

Intrigue! In some ways, I like this pic more than a lot of stuff I've drawn. And in other ways, less. It's definitely different. And I do feel like it's outside of a lot of peoples' interests in general, too, but it was just a random thing I wanted to make in a different way, so it's fine if it's not AwesomeFlavor. Hahaha

Just out of curiosity, though, do you think this is notably worse because of the style it's done in/it's overall look, or because it doesn't look like the chara maybe? Or something else?
It's fine if you don't have a ready answer or anything, too, if that's the case! I just think it can be interesting to hear what people do and don't prefer in stuff that gets posted sometimes, too.

[Cheelai]

Everything about her looks great. though I feel like she seems a bit cross eyed. just a bit, nice work!

ICKOMAN responds:

Thanks, I kind it noticed too. It's good to know I'm not crazy.

[Bara Claus]

I love your stuff.
You draw dudes incredibly well.
My only real gripe is maybe his wrists, they seem really thin to me.
Not that I would know since I barely study dudes.

oblivionscribe responds:

Hey thanks, the wrist thing is more of a personal style, lol. Sometimes I draw the wrists more narrow and sometimes not - really just depends how I'm feeling when I'm doodling. :D

[Hilda [Pokemon] SFW Solo]

Just so you know.
your patreon link gives me a 404

AleskaArt responds:

Oh thank you so much man, that was because of the ")" in the end. I fixed it now. I wish it was possible to use HTML here

[Small Planetoid]

Not a huge fan of those sun lines and the way the moon's light is coming from seemingly nowhere is also kinda weird.
I do like the effect of this though.

FlumpyTripod responds:

Yeah, I was going for a crayon-drawn kinda vibe, but I don't think I quite went far enough with it.
In terms of the moon's light, I assume you mean there's no source for the light to reflect off of it? I don't know. I just put a moon there without thinking about that.
