Kashi's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[C.O.W: Abdominal Snowman]

Welp...

Although the character design is pretty good, the background is lacking terribly. I think you can spend some more time on it and make it just as cool as the creature. Maybe removing the pencil lines behind it (or what looks like them) would be an improvement.
Also, I can't help but think this is more suited for CHoW, AKA Character of the Week. The abominal snowman looks like a man with no head and cut off at the knees, with a lot of fur. You can see the defined biceps nd clear shpe of the torso. As stated in the CoW rules, the creature it not supposed to bear any human resemblance.
Rules aside, the actual creature looks cool. You did a swell job on the fur and the face has a great expression. Keep it up.

Toast-Tony responds:

Thanks kakashi, i know i have a lot to work on when it comes to backgrounds, i might go back to it and improve on it then re submit, i know it's based on a human body, Turkeyonastick let me off with this, i know i was pushing the boat out a bit. Thanks a lot for the advice dude :)

[Water Lady]

That is...

A very nice costume you've got there. However, I find it a little busy on her right arm (our right). The straps aren't really necessary and take away from the wild look she has, in my opinion.
Nevertheless, it is a pretty solid piece. Keep it up Riot! :)

ImpendingRiot responds:

Cheers for the review :)

[Kingfisher]

Wow

I think it was great how you captured the moment of impact when the bird dives to snatch its prey. Great job.
The way you made the splash from the bird and the bubbles escaping its beak and feathers is just awesome :)

J-qb responds:

Thanks!

[Loloctopus]

Tee-hee

This reminds me when I was a baby and would thrash around in the tub :3
Good times...
Anyways, great job Fifty, its looking great.

Fifty-50 responds:

Thank you Kashi! :D

[Deep sea lurker]

Woah...

Holy fish Batman!!!

On a more serious note,
I like the lighting and glow coming from the holes, and the eyes are really cool. I wish the eyes would have the same glowing effect as the holes do, but it works nonetheless.
The fin on its back could use perhaps a bit more definition from the rest of the body. The same-looking skin/scales could look much improved with a little bit of variety.
Still, great job!

Havegum responds:

Yeah, I was at a point where I kinda wanted the eye to glow, but I wanted it to be seen as an eye and not another one of those spots.
Thanks for the review!
Happy friday flood!

[9th and Hennepin]

Meh.

I like the perspective on this one, its really cool.
However, it looks rushed; I would have like to have seen the time and effort that you put into your first attempt. It would have looked so much better.
I don't like the way you smeared her makeup. It looks like she has black eyes instead of runny mascara.

Aigis responds:

Luckily she does have black eyes rather than runny mascara. And not everyone has a week to do every picture. I'm sure you know this.

[Green Flash]

:/

Simply put, it doesn't look like this piece had that much effort put into it.
My favorite part is the writing and footsteps in the sand, but I still have my sore spots about that too. The perspective for them is off.
As for the water, it has a nice shifting effect and is decent, but, given alll of the movement shown in the forefront, the horizon should not be a perfect line.
The clouds definetely need work. The center of the clouds should actually be darkest if the moon is behind them.
Do I see a skull/happy face on the moon? Lol :3

Luwano responds:

It really is a skull face. :)

I agree on most of your points, thanks for pointing them out. Unfortunately my horizon reference had a flat line, but now that I looked at some more, I realized it's definitely an exception and looks better with some movement.

I didn't put mich much effort in it? That hurts Kashi.... ouch....

Just kidding I really appreciate your critique, thanks!

[The Door to Hell]

ha.

dont go around using your age as an excuse. you just make yourself look like a child whos using any excuse they can so people dont pick on them. just because you can throw some lines down in Flash when you are 15 doesnt mean anything.
as for your drawing, your anatomy and perspective are off. work on your fire too.

oldGanon responds:

Thanks for the Review. ^^

[Mr. Glow Flower]

awww

hes so damn adorable :3
i love the way you shaded it
but i think you couldve done something with the wing, its too.... flat

Luxembourg responds:

Oh, thanks, Kakashi!
I agree with you about the wing; it's a habit of mine, I just tack little wings (usually little bat wings) onto creatures I draw. I never really think about whether or not they look accurate or if they have depth. I really should have made it look better.
Thanks for the review! Glad you like it!

[{BT} The Musician]

Expressive...

I can relate to this, being a musician myself, how it sometimes feels when you are about to perform, and how no one else exists. At least that's how I take it. It's simple but very nice, and I really like his one. :) keep up the awesome art

BenTibbetts responds:

Thank you, Kakashi.
