FraserMcNiven's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Firelighter]

You always do the best stuff with light. And great work with hair, I often struggle knowing exactly how much hair to actually define in a stylised piece.

BoyPorcelain responds:

colour and light are probably the most fun parts of doing art for me these days, this whole piece was only made so i could test it out truthfully. Thank you, if i'm honest the hair im a bit uncertain on but it's better to just leave it be than spend my typical 3 years trying to figure it out! :)

[Grinning Nyan]

One of those little animations you can almost hear- but the atmosphere of it.
Great shapes in the design too!

[Robot Monster]

Really great. Colours are right up my street. Would be cool to see a bit more texture on the skin of the body, but I am really nitpicking at this point. Awesome illustration.

[A Walking Arcade]

I love this. I think a little extra bend in the legs would help convey how heavy the fleshy mass must be.

[Pokéderps]

There is no way you need another person mentioning the Golbat. But oh boy the Golbat.

FuShark responds:

No I need more please. These comments sustain me. Thanks!

[Devil lady & Cupid]

Swinging by with a little appreciation for that background. Sometimes drawing that many stones can end up feeling like you are building the place.

I like how it's pushed back with the blue/green hues and contrasts with the character. Definitely going to try that.

[venom]

Crackin' colours.

[Close up shots]

Terrific. Had to swing by and comment as I have posted almost the exact same thing. Same body parts, also intended for a short.

Lots of great stuff here but I particularly like the dramatic lighting on the face.

[Laughing Ouroboros Girl]

Cool as heck. Love the print texture. Gives it a trading card feeling to me.

Pretty obsessed with the whole thing.

Ruedefaux responds:

ah thank you! i like working with that narrow profile composition sometimes. was thinking of making a collection of them XD

[BeetleJUICED]

I dig the colours here! And the horns are really cool.

Looks like you got a little mixed up with the hands though. Looking at the little arms, they both have right hands (the one holding the ghost should have the thumb on the side closest to camera). Similar for the big arms, except these are both left hands. The hand that is a fist shows the thumb on the inside, when it would be on the outside.

Keep it up!

Cruxia responds:

Oh snap, I'm surprised no one pointed that out, I'll fix that in a sec, thanks!
