ShadenLines's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[no bitter]

I'm just happy to see someone else working in traditional media on here... Until a few weeks ago, I thought I was the only one. The piece is a bit cluttered, but perhaps that's the point? Or part of the message? Anyway it's still good.

[3am rubber cement fume]

Not bad but it could use a bit more contrast, maybe in the areas you consider most important. I like it overall, though...most unusual. You are the first printmaker I've run into on NG, & in a few days I will have been here for one year!

[Lust]

We don't see too much homoerotic stuff on here, so this is a change of pace.

The piece ain't bad overall but the darkness obscures a lot of it. I understand why you did it...fits in with the theme & all. But widening the overhead spotlight just a little bit would help this illo a great deal.

Folbeer responds:

This is a personal style, most of the works, if you look at the art tape, made in a similar style

[Twin Koi]

The heads could be a bit more fishlike...the scales & fins are great. The piece certainly looks worthy of inking onto some triad member's back.

7darkriders responds:

thank you for the feedback

[BATHHOUSE]

I thought it was 1/3rd camel, 1/3rd giraffe & 1/3rd mosque...

[HUNTER QUEEN VEENA]

Is it Hunter Queen Veena, or Harlem Pimp Veena?...but seriously, she looks dangerous enough.

Most of the colors are on the warm side. Maybe put in some cooler hues in the shadowed areas for balance next time?...just a thought.

vonschloss responds:

You're meant to think she's just some entitled rich lady, but then you realize you're fucked when you find her sitting in the throne of the guild.

[A Freznid Couple in a Field]

This seems like one possible outcome if the dominant species on Earth had evolved from some kind of sea-dwelling worm, instead of from a proto-hominid one. Given their anatomy, I don't understand how they would put those tattoos on each other, let alone make the bricks in the foreground...still, it's interesting.

[Graphite Mushroom IX]

a.k.a. the "Salt Shaker Mushroom"...

[Graphite Mushroom X]

It looks more like "Junior Graphite Mushroom X".

I gave an extra star for the cuteness. The girls will love this piece.

DonaldLPatten responds:

They love them ;)

[jack skellington fanart]

You caught Skellington's spirit, for sure.

It would be interesting to know what tools/media you used in making this piece.

thanks!, I used old pens, colors and markers I found
