Syrupmasterz's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nejire Hado]

Dayum son! Your lineart skills are getting crazy good!
You still using Flash to get those nice clean lines, or are you using Photoshop? :)

bocodamondo responds:

yeah this is done in flash,
glad you like it ^^

[Superverse - Starzan]

Haha, this style is just like the kind of art you see on the sides of arcade machines and pinball cases. :P

Good detail on the muscles and your lineart really made the colours pop out.
Keep it up!

CrockerComics responds:

Thanks. The client wanted it to feel like an animated superhero cartoon.

[Khori 2018]

The hands are a tiny bit janked at the wrist, and the pinkies are a little bit too thick towards the finger tip. You did a great job with the pointing fingers though, they have good flow and good articulation.

The colours all seem to mesh well with one another and the face is very expressive. In terms of shadow and lighting I'd say you did an overall good job, but the shading around her neck is a little bit smudged.

You're gradually getting everything dialed in, so keep up the practice and you'll get closer to mastering the semi-realistic style!

Shishizurui responds:

thanks,with each picture I get closer and closer. i feel like one day i'll just get it all to pop and work at some point hands have always been tricky for me for years they've looked like mangled sausages but they're getting better

I apriciate your criticism and kind words its been an absolute trip getting to this spot i'm currently at and admittedly i know i'm just at the tip of the iceburg

thanks again~

[Planet YixHund]

Could use something going on in the foreground maybe, but on the other hand having the background just being those mountains shows the depth.

What's all gonna happen on YixHund?

BlackArabi responds:

YixHund is a Alien Member of my future comic called Crazy Universe, so, you can see what happen on Yix Hund there

[A Rocket In The Room]

Hmm...I think a cool style would be that every time you walk into a new room, the camera centres in on the new room and the other one fades to white. In such a way that each room is centered in the middle of the screen like this.

Regardless, this isn't half bad a just a sample to what you might be cooking up, whatever it might be. :P

Keep it up!

Mikethehunter16 responds:

You are totally read my mind(a wonderful thing) lol, that's sort of what I was thinking too :3
Thank you so much :)

[Deene and Mojo]

Seems like they'd fit in just fine into the Parappa The Rappa world, and that is very much a compliment. :P

DeDeur responds:

Thank you!! I actually took a lot of inspiration from parappa when I designed these two!

[I'm not familiar with traditional art and that makes me uncomfortable so I tried it out send help]

When you someone tells you to read 'a book' and you take their advice as literally as you can. :P

Not bad, not bad at all. I kinda dig the muted colour look and how your character is reading a book with just one hand. I'd mention that the legs are too short for the torso, but I'm pretty sure that was a stylistic choice rather than anything else.

Nice simple drawing and there's nothing wrong with that.
Keep up the practice and pencil crayons will never make you uncomfortable again. haha

Take 'er easy.

Oddlem responds:

Hey, "a book" is a scholarly and educational work of literature. lel
Thank you! And shoot, someone else pointed that out too. I really need to work on my proportions since I did not realize there was anything wrong with the legs until now. x: Definitely wasn't on purpose, since he's supposed to be a bit tall with long legs and a short torso. Whoops.

But yeah! I'll keep practising for sure, I do love working with pens (though it gets a bit annoying when half of my pens have a bunch of air bubbles lol).

[The Midnight Wandering]

DAAAAAAAAAAYUM!
Each character could be it's own image, but then you went and put 20+ into this badass rendition. Those clouds bordering the Mothership are also super well done and must have taken FOREVER to get right.

Metal Slug 3 has lots of charm, and so does this! :D
Great job mang!

funymony responds:

Those clouds were a pain! I put a lot of detail into the background only to have it covered up by a lot of stuff in the foreground. :D Your response makes it all worth it! THANK YOU!

[Pharmtasm and Injectoplasm]

Cool style you got goin' on here. :P

One question I gotta ask though is, how do you get such controlled and clean lineart?
Do you do it all in one go, don't use pressure sensitivity, or do you draw it all in small sections and then smooth it out?

Inquiring minds would like to know! (If it's not too much trouble, of course. haha)

Shenaniganza responds:

A lot of ctrl+z.

[Zombie Girl mubi]

Very rarely will you find a zombie that not only respects personal space, but wants it itself. :P

Not bad friend, not bad. :P

Pinkskadink responds:

Haha thanks friend :]
