Syrupmasterz's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[[D&D] Hobgoblin Shohnaluurkh]

The takeaway from reading the lore in the description is to never earn the ire of Hobgoblin chieftain just to be safe...or to purchase even larger and scarier falcons. :P

[Summer]

Summer.
When a Slurpee fully melts in 10 minutes and I do as well.

Snazzy designs!
Fun to see the overalls slowly being sacrificed until the battle tested summer fashion of t-shirt and shorts wins out. lol

Keep it up!

[[D&D] TOL: Rat-Catchers]

Based on the description of each of these leaders, I'm not even expecting a large clandestine power move by one of them, I'm expecting a drunken brawl that one of them wins by virtue of being the most sober. :P

Pretty good stuff as it seems like you took extra care in the cross hatching this time around. Drawing tons of tiny lines can be exhausting with big pieces but it always pays off. haha

Only thing I'd maybe would have changed is the floor at the very front. Behind them seems to be darkness, so as it stands it looks like they are hovering above said darkness, even though Tall Hasan is leaning on the pillar behind him. Having a heavily crosshatched dark colour would solve this, but knowing how sharpies are, I know it's a little late at this point. :P

Still, pretty stellar stuff overall. Keep it up!

[Friends]

If birds aren't real...what's actually inside the birdcage at my place!?

Good work converting the sketch into a colored piece!
Only thing standing out is that the speaker the Harpy Girl is sitting on isn't casting a shadow while the characters are. Might've been done for contrast purposes, but otherwise nothing else seems overtly off.

Keep it up! :D

Hongobouski responds:

They are government droness DONT LET THEM DECEIVE U!! lol
Thank you :D
I'm pretty happy with it. I still struggle with shading. I wasn't sure how I would do the shadow for the speaker. Whether it is hid behind the speaker or something like that.

[Gang Beasts Plushes | Commissions]

As long as Gang Beasts aren't near any tall ledges or train tracks, they are actually quite peaceful! They also make great roommates. :P

Really nice work!
Not only did you make a pretty dang close replica, you then made them custom clothes to match the customization options in-game! Further proving that a Build-A-Beast is a viable strategy for a store. haha

Keep it up!

[Better Tiefling Creation Tool for RPGs]

Some of the curse descriptions sound like they come from an incredibly spiteful demon, while others sound like they were cast by a mildly irritated wizard.

"your nails grow twice the average speed, they bleed when cut."

Innocuous enough to not curse one's ancestors, but annoying enough to leave nails unclipped for quite a while. lol

------------------

Certainly an interesting character creator, and I didn't know much about Tieflings before starting to read this.
My guess is that more often or not people making a tiefling for the most part just wanted some cool undercover vaguely cursed character to stroll around with with the rest of the party.
Playing with someone that is a walking omen factory is like turning on hard mode before even starting the game. :P

Good job putting this all together!

[Grummzle Reference Sheet 2021]

The big goofy nose and round glasses instantly make me think of Mr. Dink from Doug. :P

Otherwise, this bug fellow has a pretty nifty and unique design.
Keep it up!

doodlinacornz responds:

youre the 2nd person who's told me he looks like mr dink lol

[Skate Bail Sprites]

How slippery is this floor?! He keeps slippin'! D:

Nice work!

Not sure if it's a deliberate art choice, but the line of Skate Snail seems to get much thinner when he shakes his head rapidly in contrast to the the thicker lines he has normally.

Keepin' line thickness consistent when using pressure sensitivity is always tricky, but overall it's looking pretty snazzy overall.

Keep it up!

chimerschang responds:

Yeah, someone else pointed this out on DeviantArt with regards to his crouching sprite (In that the outlines were noticeably thicker).
I'm trying to keep the sprites well-drawn and consistent, but seeing as how game development is already a huge time investment, ESPECIALLY when you're working alone, I've also been adopting a bit of a "good enough" attitude and moving on to the next thing.

D'awwww. :)

It's da Woops!
