Syrupmasterz's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Specific genre of Asian woman]

Sometimes stars for restaurants are often given based on the service itself, not just the food.
So if they warn ya that it's going to be a long wait, the 3.2/5 star food might not be worth it you're absolutely on the verge of starvation. :P

But hey. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

Otherwise! Delightful character design. Reminds me of a few of my friends, except they don't have pink hair at the moment. lol

The comic panels are fun, but except for some photos and the specific genre of Asian woman known as Daisy Wu, the rest of the characters are mostly uncoloured.

'Course that's probably to keep focus on Daisy since this comic seems like it was made to introduce, which I understand.
I'm sure next time we see her the rest of the world around her will be fully coloured and fleshed out. Best of luck with all of your future projects. :)

[Ice cream papapa]

"Gotta tell ya PJ, we're both outta luck.
Sun's really shining and it's hot as (OOPS!)"

[Lethal Door]

The Good News: The door is locked.
The Bad News: The return trip is probably just as awful. :P

flashh908 responds:

Even worse news: monsters can open locked doors

[pizza]

Not saying it's the only thing I'd use telekinesis for, but I'd definitely be doing stuff like that to keep my psychic powers trained up. :P

[Skeleton Army - Month 2]

Snake Legs McCraig on the bottom left definitely has a story to tell about how he wound up as a snake monster before he died and was re-risen as a Skeleton. That goofy smile he's got is telling me he's still proud about how he pulled it off. :P

Otherwise, another cool batch!
Probably a tie this week between Skull Shield Skeleton and the Floating Dual Daggers Skeleton.
Diggin' the teal colour you use for their metal armour, and the pale blues for when magical properties are implied with your floatin' warriors.

At 56 skeletons in as many days, your Necromancer either has the makings of a small town, is looking to take over the next town over, or is so paranoid that a Paladin is going to bonk him on the head with a hammer that the vast majority of his skeletons are still combat orientated. haha

Best of luck with your continuing skeleton journey!

WURMxFUD responds:

Skull shield is definitely my personal fav out of this last week's~

haha It's definitely a very conquest-oriented batch of guys at the moment, we'll see how long the trend keeps up :')

[Wanted! Collab Pals]

Heavy's expression just reminds me of Photo Day's when the photographer takes a photo of one of my friends before they were ready to smile, so in the yearbook they looked overly serious. :P

Good assortment! Clear to see that you did your pixel shading research, because you've got some nice colour transitions from the dark/well lit zones.

[toggle evolved]

A dragon of sorts! Not bad. :)

I like the addition of the scales around the edges of his limbs and head to add the extra detailing, but the piece of a whole remains cartoony with minimal details within the centers and away from the edges.

Perhaps the top part of his lizard frill could have a line or two like the middle of the frill to keep it consistent, but otherwise that's just a bit of a nit-pick.

Other than that, I like the colour scheme of the dark scales and much lighter lizardy sails.
Keep up the practice and I'm sure you'll get where you want to go. :)

Best of luck!

ToggleDragon responds:

thanks for the review. i love mashing realistic and cartoony together, so that probably explains the inconsistency, considering they are opposites

[Skeleton Army - Week 7]

Before these skeletons had plausible deniability that they were wielding weapons for self-defense as this ambitious young Necromancer was finding a place in this world for themself, but with Suspicious Helmet McMurder Glaive holding his victim's head, I'm beginning to suspect this Necromancer is perhaps not as friendly as I had previously been giving them credit. lol

UNLESS THAT IS, this is the first instance of a skeleton breaking away from the strict 'no murder' rules, and will subsequently be punished and imprisoned by the soon to be risen 'Skeleton Jailor'. Time will tell.

Otherwise, Red Armour Skeleton is the 2nd favorite, and Bomb Barrel is the best this week. :P

WURMxFUD responds:

I can safely say Bomb Barrel has been a HUGE favorite everywhere, born of my laziness and lack of desire to spend time rendering anything complex~

[Hidden Cats: Snow Biome]

The camel is doing a lot better figuring out this strange new environment than the shark is. :P

Holly and jolly, and the beaten paths and faint shading has helped prevent the snow level from being a single tone blob of white. Nice and diverse while still lookin' cold.

[Skeleton Army - Week 6]

Here we go, the necromancers are doing some experiments to see if covering their skeletons in gold makes them any stronger.
Seems to be helping a little bit, and it has the side effect of making them religious instead of magical. :P

Another fun batch, and the hulking mace wielder is definitely the scariest of the bunch.
But I gotta point out the hunched over skeleton. Poor guy can't even stand up straight, and the magic ritual making his bones turn blue and float is clearly far from being complete.
Once he's a floating candle looking monster he should look far less distressed. lol
