ShadenLines's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Inktober XXIX: Christopher Lee [2K24]]

Pretty d**ned good. You could also title this "Sleep-Deprived Dracula". (Do you look like that once you're past a certain level of exhaustion?...I do)

CobaltRogueX responds:

Thank you, and yes I do.

[Booba]

I want to hire this girl for my next birthday. Hotcha!

Froggy8648 responds:

Not really a friend's character for dnd and she's fucked up, his last character tried to piss on god. I was angry then but couldn't help but laugh. UwU

[Don't cry]

I don't know your intentions here, but this piece does well as a portrayal of mental illness. I get feelings of depression from it...terrible inner torment...utter hopelessness. If that's what you were going for, you hit the mark.

AZ0RZER0 responds:

Thanks. This was made just a few hours after the Labyrinth episode from I Can't Sleep was released. I thought the sheer concept of a vast but short heighted labyrinth did represent the idea that it looks easy to get through from an outside perspective, when it's much harder for some of those dealing with it at the moment.

[Rafaela Nun]

*lol* Even when you're drawing a nun, it comes through...you & your big tits fixation...Sure, it's a good cartoon & all, but you ain't hidin' nothin' here! >|-D

TheMiamiDeSantos responds:

well, this time i tried, her hands like that in front of them was supposed to hide a bit lol

[Up to No Good]

Political issues, of course!

Nabella responds:

She might just be posting opinions considered controversial in different fandoms, as well.

[Plight 2: ROBOT TAKEOVER]

Along with the AI-related problems for us artists, your first panel gave examples of what current 21st-century techno-culture generates: fat porn.

Who knows, maybe it's an improvement...in the late 1990's, the highest effort was monkey porn...

Nabella responds:

There are LORA models online that can generate all kinds of weird p0rnz.

It's my belief that if there are people utilizing LORA models to generate the gnarliest and most distasteful smut imaginable then there are likely people who will utilize it to make sincere and beautiful art.

I'm not a fan of Stable Diffusion and how it operates in order to work but situations like this make me believe it unfortunately has staying power.

[It's Called a Bowsprit]

He must be the captain of the great two-masted ship "FREUDIAN GLORY".

Nabella responds:

That's a good title. I will save that for later.

[ink22 #22 doodle (pump kin)]

If I was seriously into cycling instead of a not-often-enough rider, I'd consider having this tattooed on one of my shins...the pump, that is.

Cyberdevil responds:

That'd be awesome. XD If you ever do plan to do through such a procedure though I'm sure I could doodle up something a bit more polished; something it took more than a day to make!

'ppreciate it!

[Inktober XXI: Chainsaw the Children [2K24]]

This too would be risky to "fave". Anyone who can consistently make a viewer feel that way has the horror shtick down pat.

It's funny you should draw this, as I'm in the market for a chainsaw right now....

Edit: The hell with it. I'm faveing this piece anyway.

CobaltRogueX responds:

Lol thanks!

What a funny coincidence indeed...

[ink22 #30 doodle (deerman)]

Not much I can add that others haven't already commented on... It reminds me of that old English engraving of Molech, the Canaanite tribal god they sacrificed children to (according to the story).

Cyberdevil responds:

Ooh I don't think I'd heard of Molech before, fascinating origins... depictions differ it seems, but in the maybe most traditional he looks more like a cow to me. Unholy cow... wonder if he could be a visual origin of how Satan tends to be portrayed and all too, though there are probably plenty of similar horn-clad horrors with older tribes, ought read up, South American tribes had similar ones at least a few thousand years BC, though not sure they were depicted with horns or no, I think it was more wings/fangs then...

Thanks for the review and lore Shaden, cool to know about!
