Syrupmasterz's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Decaying Sammy]

Knowing the terrors Sammy has to sometimes go through, my guess is that this Sammy is actually real and will one day bump into normal Sammy on the street somewhere. :P

[Robo-Scallus | Commission]

Wanted Dead Or Alive for 15 different counts of 'Foot on the coffee table'.

[lovely couple commission no.2]

D'awww. :)

[BIOHAZARD]

Leon is keeping his cool a lot better than I would be during this situation. :P

Lots of characters and lots of details! Great planning and execution all around!

Ruedefaux responds:

HAHA he's Leon! He has to keep his cool in such a situation XD
Thank you~

[Dagoth Ur]

Despite all his evil schemes, you gotta hand it to the guy...he makes a guest feel welcomed in his lair. :P

ACID-YORU responds:

Yeah dude. He was so polite. He even let me make the first strike after a nice conversation

[Wooper on the Docks]

Magikarp is telling Wooper where he can find and catch Ho-oh. :)

[Frankenstein's monster]

Whenever I see a rendition of Frankenstein('s Monster), I always wonder if the bodies Doctor Frankenstein had dug up were that ridiculously ripped, or if some extra bits were added to make him that tough.

Super cool rendition though! Good use of thin lines and smudge to add some cool texture and half-shadows to him. :D

[Melvin Akira Bike Slide]

This reminds me of the many times I've shredded my kneecaps on asphalt. :P

[Fodder Enemy]

A trick I saw for getting lots of variation for the little fodder grunt enemies is to have several different outfit colours, and a few different heads or distinct features. That way, when the outfits and heads are mixed and matched, you have over 30+ different combinations. Way more bang for your buck while still trying to keep things minimal to a single enemy type. :)

[Loki | God of Mischief]

Working in black and white is a tricky medium, but of course, a trick to learn is that dark hair can be very shiny depending on the direction of the light source. Some highlights and then of course the absence of highlights can get a bit more extra depth in your pieces.

Plus, that Loki and Thor on the bottom left are really well done too!
Keep it up!

TheDyingSun responds:

"that Loki and Thor on the bottom..."
- I KNEW IT!!! My friend initially told me to draw Bucky, but in the end I looked at it and said it looks like Ragnarok Thor.

Otherwise, yeah, I didn't intend to do complete black and white, but it is rather tricky. My second attempt was a lot cleaner, paying attention to the lighting. Working with a water acrylic mix for shades is difficult fun :)
