FGIJonC's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sarah's Picture]

I like it a lot, the only issue I somewhat have is that the hair looks a bit too flat, not much depth or shape to it. Also, to me, the ears look a bit weird, but maybe I'm just a goof and don't know what I'm looking at.

I like the shading on the skin though pretty cool and makes me think of how the tone of our skin isn't always uniform, lighting or not.

Keep it up!

Pyranivation responds:

Thank you! I appreciate your opinion. I like to go for more 'cartoon-y' looks, which would be why everything looks flat or exaggerated.

[A First]

That's pretty good for using MS Paint, regardless if its Sanic or not. At least its not some wacky sonic OC do-not-steal kind of thing, haha.

Needs more chili dog though

Christian-AC responds:

Thanks!

[Bed Bugs]

This made me laugh aloud, I wasn't expecting that! Good joke! I also liked the artwork as well! You should have made Bugs' eyes more oval like (as they are) and maybe put his pupils being red instead of black. But aside from that, great job!

Oh and I guess, on the last panel, the bed seems to be nonexistent making it looks like Bugs and the blanket he's under is just floating against the background.

Looks pretty good. I say keep practicing at it, you can only get better!

Also,
its a little
annoying
when you have unnecessary line
breaks :P

Keep it up!

[A difference in shaders]

For me I like elements from both versions. I like the more flat black of the outfit on the left side, though I think it could a little shading, but I like the shirt on the right version better. I like the hair on the right better than the left but I like the mouth on the left better than the one on the right?

Maybe somehow do a combination of both if possible?

karismaticprik responds:

Thanks. The mouth on the right doesn't have any lighting applied to it so it appears black. Combining them would take some work, but I'll keep that in mind for the future.

Hey, maybe try to recreate this digitally at one point, using color and shading and whatnot. Might be nice to see.

Keep practicing!

[Flower]

The drawing isn't great, but don't let that discourage you! Keep practicing drawing digitally and traditionally. You can get better, I'm proof of this (long story behind that), it just takes practice and determination. If you want to keep doing digital art, try to invest in a drawing tablet at some point, it'll make things a bit easier. Also, look into getting software made for drawing, such as Adobe software or Manga Studios, etc. If you don't have the money, I think PaintTool SAI is free and its a pretty good program.

Keep it up and maybe one day recreate what you were going for with this piece!

Thank you so much because I have only been doing art for 1 year. Damn I've been drawing stickmen my entire life. Also when I first posted this I thought there would be a long line of hate comments so that is why I reminded people that it was my first experience for electronically drawing!!

That's pretty much how I consume my soda.

[Balloon of Lies]

That description sounds about right.

ThePsychoSheep responds:

I really didn't try thinking of something witty
