ArtistGamerGal's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Steven's Angels]

The colors in this are wonderful and you did a great job imitating the background style in SU too. I was very drawn to this thumbnail!

However, I do have a few things to say beyond that after reading your description. The worst thing you can do to yourself is compare yourself to other people. The reality is, there will always be people better than you at anything no matter what you do. The important thing is to focus on continuing to improve YOURSELF. Which you said you think you have. That is the important thing. I know so many artists and animators that focus way too much on popularity and politics and not enough on just getting better and end up becoming stagnant and give up. Don't give up. Just because someone's art is more popular never means it is better. Remember that <3

It is nicely drawn but I don't feel you captured Pearl's personality or her body type very well. The neck is so thick that it looks manish to me along with the wide shoulders and chest. Pearl is very dainty and has a more triangular nose.

Ferdafs responds:

Yeah, I did add a bit too much "plot"! Haha. I think drawing a more triangular nose would make it look ridiculous though. Anyway, thanks for the comment!

[Crystal Gem Mugshots]

Love it! You really captured their personalities with these poses! Great job!

Although when doing a GIF you should always make sure there is something on the first frame (even for just 1 frame) so that there is something to show in the preview.

Cogmoses responds:

Thank you! I appreciate the comment!

And yeah, I'll have to keep that in mind the next time I submit a gif here.

[Everywhere!]

Wonderful colors! Cute characters! Love it.

The boob...

Seems flat. Some anatomy issues overall in the positioning of the arms and legs. Should probabley use more real life or photo reference next time.

Other then that- Awesome. Like the watercolor painting style A LOT.

mugyamugya responds:

thanks. i am practicing in drawing humanoids. seems difficult without reference though

[El Aurige]

Stunning

This is gorgeous. It has a very interesting narrative to it as well. I love how you used only a few colors to create such depth and beauty. Quite inspiring! You are a wonderful digital painter :)

[the bots]

Love it!

Great work. I love the controled color palette with the dashes of bright blue, yellow, and green. The characters are unique yet uniformed under one universal style. Great work here. I really love this and your art style overall!

thankyou!

[Alice of Wonderland]

MS paint? damn!

That must have been quite a challenge in paint! I'm impressed!

My biggest problem with this piece is that there is no weight in the pose. Typically if either leg was in the current pose the oppisite leg would need to be firmly planted on the ground to hold the body weight. It might be more clear if there was a suggestion of a ground plane instead of just a solid black background.

Rooshie responds:

Ya i did that at first, but shes pissed and shes holding a gun, she wont be walking like shes taking a stroll, she'd be walking like shes motherfucking Rambo, shes gonna menstruate all over her foes ass, that's how pissed she is. And about the firmly planting the leg, don't worry, never be firm on the ground, be as loose as possible ( teehee) life would have no meaning if you were firm to the ground. And art generally depicts your mood in life, i was feeling meretricious at the time, sort of in the porn mood, but didn't want to go through finding a good porno and waiting for it to buffer, et cetera, et cetera. Thanks for the feedback and criticism, I did take it lightly. :D Jks, nah i took it like it was pregnancy.
