ShadenLines's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Arizona]

Very retro, as others have already described... The composition looks slightly unbalanced but in this case maybe it works, given the panicked horse. All in all, great job.

[Mia Lounging, watercolour]

This almost makes me feel bad for flattening that inch-long roach a couple nights ago...

[Looking Up]

It's very good but yes, you are overthinking color values. I can barely tell the difference...am getting the impression you're going more by the RGB numbers instead of by how it looks onscreen.

widemouthink responds:

I don't really follow the color values of the program itself. I tend to check both on my monitor and phone screen to make sure colors are showing up how they're supposed to. More often than not, I keep finding some oddities that I feel need fixing.

Though lately, it's felt like I'm the only one who notices these kind of things. Whether it's a monitor thing or a pet peeve of mine. I'm gonna have to learn to simply ignore it.

[FUNNY VALVE GAMES]

"Jesse, we need to atomize."

[Portrait study]

It could use a little work, particularly the nose & the folds in her shirt around the shoulder. But overall it ain't bad.

Though we don't know each other, I would like to ask you a favor. Namely this: as you do pixel art, would you not drop your oil painting, please? There aren't that many of us working in traditional media anymore. If enough of us did, maybe oils/acrylics/watercolor/etc. would get the attention they deserve.

adameck responds:

Thanks for the feedback! And don't worry, I don't plan to drop my tradicional art, specially the oil painting as I love it very much

[Peppino Spaghetti]

Have you ever heard of Lupo the Butcher?...

[garfield]

Most interesting version of Garfield I've seen in over 20 years.

First comment/rating!

This is the best piece I've seen from you since I started following your account. You have outdone yourself this time. The shading on the robot & dead aliens (at least I think they're aliens), the depth of field...it all works. A bit more blood puddled around the corpses, maybe a splash here & there, would help. But overall it is excellent. Am curious as to what media you used for this piece...or should I say "what program"?

snotrat responds:

thank you, i used procreate for this and nearly all my digital art

[My Eyes Are Up Here [2K24]]

I wish I'd thought of something like this.

[MALFUNCTION//METAMORPHOSIS [2K24]]

"body horror" indeed!...

It's not to my taste but you got those details in, definitely, & it is well done overall. As someone who gets headaches on a semi-regular basis, I can well relate to this piece.
