TheReviewTrickster's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dedmos]

I really like the style and the way the textures look. The chains look great, very strong but also just really cool. Dedmos looks great too, and I like what you did with his hands, it shows us his emotions even though he doesn't have a face. What a fantastic piece!

[Mischief Sketch]

Wow, I didn't even know Interface had fanart. From a fellow fan, you captured Mischief's character pretty well. This almost seems like a pose he would actually strike in the show. I like how, even with the gray tone, the mouth and facial features still stick out so much. I also like how spaghetti-ed up he is and the way he's dangling his legs high up in the air. The lighting is so ominous, which is fitting, though his attitude remains unchanged. The rough style is also reminiscent of the series, and the static-like background is too. Good job on this, it's a great piece of fanart!

Gaussamer-BTD responds:

Hey thanks! I'm glad you liked it! I love Interface so much, and I had a blast drawing this one. I was interested to see how it would turn out with my greyscale, sketchy style, and I was pleased with how well it turned out. You should really check out U M A M I's discord group. There are a lot of great artists there who have made fanart, as well as their own projects (among the usual discussions and memeing of course). In fact, through that discord, Umami will occasionally hold competitions. The most recent one was to make a piece of art mashing up Interface with pop culture. It's a blast.

[Slashy slaher slashington.]

The whole thing is classic horror movie stuff. The expression, the framing, the aesthetic, pose, her makeup, it's all such a slasher scene. I love how exaggerated her boobs are as well. The killer's pose is also great, everything about this is a pure slasher tribute, so much detail, and it all works towards making it both an homage and a parody. Even the setting seems to be some generic house, and the girl is in the kitchen. I like how the knife even has a silly reflection of her. Keep this up, it's fantastic!

[engineer & android]

Your artstyle is very pleasant and this is a cool piece. I wish there was more of a background, but there is still a nice amount of detail. The story is clear, and so are the attitudes of the characters. I like how they seem to be blushing, it's cute. I also like the silly outfit worn by the engineer and the bolts and stuff flying everywhere, it's really fun. The engineer's leg that's further back looks a bit weird since the shoe looks a bit too thin, and there's no clear line where the pants end so it looks like she has a weird lumpy foot. The android's foot also looks kinda weird, though that might be okay. A nice cute piece overall.

[Speciella]

That is super weird! The texture looks great and I really like the minimalistic design, it really emphasises the emptiness. The huge eye and disproportionately tiny mouth are really great and add a bit of fun to the piece as well. It's cool how you can see a tiny dot of light in the eye, I'm guessing it's supposed to be a sort of pupil. Colors and background are also awesome, and I really like the creature's position in the frame. The tiny strands of hair on the top if its head are a nice touch. Great job, you have a great sense of character design!

[Signal]

That's a very cool style and an interesting concept. I don't know what it's supposed to represent though. I suppose a sea of information flooding the world, and the tree is the only untouched thing-maybe it represents nature, and the only way to avoid the sea is to go under it. That's just a guess though. Maybe you could have made the mountain and tree stand out a bit more, the cloud things are very strong in comparison, though maybe that was the point. I do quite like the light at the top, and the clouds or whatever are pretty cool too. The lower part of the picture is definitely my favorite.

Username047 responds:

Thank you for your feedback :)

Just like we expand and dominate nature, so does nature try to expand and dominate us. It just seems like a pointless struggle in which humans refuse to live in symbiosis and nature suffers at our modern comfort expense.

You were spot on almost, you supposed extremely well.

[Katara Water Bends]

I've actually not seen The Last Airbender, though this art is pretty good regardless. The blurring is pretty strong, and the pose and framing is cool and actiony. The streams of water behind her seem a little too much like cloth or something, though they look great in the front. The water drops look a bit out of place, too, specifically the ones on the left half of the picture. There's that one tiny wave that looks a bit too simple. Still a pretty cool piece overall with a nice sense of action.

[Frog Painting]

Aww, this is nice! It's very soft and cute. The colors are really nice and I like the spots on the frog's stomach. I feel like this is the frog pope, or it's trying to take over the world. Like a genius frog! The composition is pretty nice and the painting can be divided into thirds. One thing I don't really like is that the branch poking through the leaf feels much sharper and cleaner than the rest of the painting. It might be due to the colors. It just makes it stick out. Also, I don't get why that leaf is floating above the stump. Is the frog trying to press it down (like a genius frog)? That's cool. There's also a finger on the foot pressed down on the leaf that seems to be a bit too far away from the others, and the fingers themselves and the leg seem very short compared to the others. The eye-snails are pretty nice. Overall it's a pretty nice fun piece with some flaws.

EvanScale responds:

Great feedback once again! :)
I agree with your notes. There are a lot t work on, but I will be uploading more stuff in the future, hopefully better as we go. I have lots of studies and practices planned!

[OWL STATUE]

This is a really cool style. I quite like the perspective and the idea is pretty fun as well. The clouds, while cool, don't fit in with the perspective. Maybe that's what you were unhappy with? Still though, you've got a cool style, so keep it up.

hexic54 responds:

That could be it perhaps, I see now how it looks out of place with everything being in a difference perspective! Thank you, I appreciate your feedback! :-)

[Harbor]

Very detailed. I like the color scheme a lot, it's quiet yet cool. Makes me feel like an epic pixel battle is about to go down between some fighting game characters. Seriously, there's an unbelievable amount of detail, even the sky in the background is lit up by the city lights. The boat just seemed a little off to me for some reason. Maybe it doesn't look as perfect as I'm expecting, or the lines are too curved or something. Still a cool boat though. Just my first impression was that the picture had weird curvy lines. Then I looked at it a bit longer and realized I was completely wrong.
