ShadenLines's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[CityScapeAgain]

Not bad, not bad... You could've pushed the cool colors (sky & water) a bit further, but it works. I like how you did the ground...it looks kinda like sod or fallen straw.

DevilRat responds:

I think you are right when it comes to that as... This place has became my last platform to post on aside from Baraag. Well I wanted to lean towards cools, but not too worm, but it does remind me of old rendering as old photography or 4chan's photography section often inspires me sometimes. Due to how the camera renders, not the cleaniness of today.

[Up & Away in a hot air balloon!]

This is the first pixel art piece I've seen that I actually like. (Hey, taste is subjective!...)

Haven't played the game yet but I probably will one of these days. Stress relievers are always good.

Have you ever ridden in a hot air balloon? It's fun!...just be sure to enjoy it instead of taking repetitive snapshots the whole time.

Creeperforce24 responds:

No I haven’t! But when I do, I sure will! :D

[Another Madness Day in Nevada [2K24]]

...so Hank prefers an M-60? It gets the job done, for sure... M-60s are old tech, though. If Hank just needs to mow down lots of human enemies, he should go with an M-249 SAW. Those are lighter...more portable; if you're committed to a weight limit you can carry a bit more ammo with an M-249. It's also got plenty of effective range.

CobaltRogueX responds:

You are indeed correct, but I just like the visual retro aesthetic of the M60 more LOL.

[BEATRIX #2]

Where are the chains? I see one going around her right hip but that's all...do the others only appear when Beatrix attacks an enemy? She has an interesting backstory, for sure.

KhaosKitsune617 responds:

the chains extend themselves. and the other chain is hidden due to perspective and that she is covering it

[Ultra Fine Point Profiles #004 [2K24]]

Good technique, there.

So you use felt-tip markers, too?...but you go with a fine-point one, it looks like. If she shows up in the next stage of disrobing, I'm here for it.

CobaltRogueX responds:

Lol I only used the ultra fine point. It's essentially like any other permanent marker aside from that.

I might make the attempt at a follow-up, lol...

EDIT: I haven't slept in 16 hours; I misinterpreted your question LOL. I'll use whatever markers I can get my hands on. Felt-tip, gel, ballpoint, etc. If it's fun to use and looks nice, I'll use it. c:

[Russel]

...Crowe.

(I had to)

ShangXian responds:

Lol, nice one!

Never thought about it XD

[Whiteboard Pizza Party]

You've seen Lupo, haven't you?

WASP02 responds:

I’m afraid I have not.

[Insurgent Bread]

Not "insurgent naan"?...

Askapy responds:

May the baker be praised

[H&K MP5SD]

First I'd quickly check the surroundings for cameras, drones, fishing line attached to the piece, or anything else suspicious. Secondly, if the nearby environment is clean I would look it over without touching it (could be bugged or boobytrapped). If _that_ didn't show anything, then I'd pick it up & take it somewhere...not home, at least not right away.

But seriously, it's good but the background is too bright. If it were blurred a bit more & darkened, the gun would stand out more. I like it, though.

Askapy responds:

What a great comment!

Okay, thank you very much for pointing out the bright background. It’s always good to receive feedback that helps you improve in future drawings.

I’ve noted the advice for the next weapon I draw. Thanks!
