LegolaSS's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[New Hair]

liking the details...

4 hours?... seems about right... loving the shades and simple details in this piece... the bold outline seems to be popular at the moment if a few artists... minor issues like the earings need to be smoother as they seem a bit crumpled / joined up... unless they arnt full rings... (i dont know about these things)... overall a really nice piece... the simple bold cartoon feel mixxed with the deep colours and shading is a really nice piece... might want to think about making the glove a bit thiner and her arm longer so it doesnt seem as false... but thats just my views... i really love it... keep it up :3

[Game Preview]

cant wait to play it

yes it looks cool and all.. but its rather basic to be putting it in the art portal dont you think?... screen shot of a game?... rather basic colours and shading... nicely done and all but i would have kept this to your userpage ;)

JKAmovies responds:

I guess. . . But I just wanted to show some of the art from the game because it had taken ages to do and thought people would appreciate some game shots :3

Thanks for the review mate.

[Ladies on the Beach]

very nicely done...

lovely colours... bright and bold... yet fitting perfectly with the beach theme... the coulds are simple and effective... as well as the lush background... the water has the fantasty feel to it.. its not perefect but its still great... simple background with maxium effect... i also love how you made this piece longer... its a really nice touch...
nice wet/driping water and flawless shine effects, the glass bowl and reflection from the leg... the amazing use of lighting and shading, possibly requires some attention on the blue girls right arm *the one holding the goggles* with shading issues... apart from that im finding it hard to pick out flaws in this wonderfully done piece... the amount of knowledge and effects used is outstanding... well done!

[Tablet Practice]

good lines...

but i would have kept this to yourself.... yeah its a nice piece of work and the manga quality is top notch... but as the title sugests this is just a practice peice... not a finish product... i have seen what else you are capable of and this just seems half hearted... just take the "background" its not very clean compaired to the rest of the picture... and the hair doesnt look finished or as clean as the face...

MangArtist responds:

Yeah, it kinda was half-hearted to tell the truth. I spent most of my time on the eyes and ran out of ideas for the rest of it. (I also suck at digitally drawing hair) I also just wanted to call it done cause I had other projects I needed to work on. I'm currently working on another picture with my tablet and I plan on putting more effort into it.
Really, I posted this mostly just for critiques and tips.

Thanks, though! :D

i was waiting for this picture...

the thing i love most... is how you manage to keep the quality of the artwork up in all of your flashes... this isnt the greatest artwork in the world however... i feel that this picture will be overated highly beacuse of the subject rather then the artwork... yes... the artwork is really good... alot of details and true shading... i love how you have kept it so simple without it looking basic and boring... another picture / flash well done... im sure to se more pictures and flashes from you in the future... keep it up :3

[Paladin]

looks a little spazzy...

line work is clean and very nicely done... the colouring is rathery bold and the shading rather dim most places... increase the depth of the shading in some areas... for example her cloak could use with some darker shades where her foot touches it... the metal areas really need some shine on them to make it look more realistic other then a concept idea... the best area is the torso... where the shading is strongest and there is fine shading to sugest areas which are not created via the line art... now... the pose looks rather like a kids doll after an hour of hard adventuring.. its nice that the body is twisted... but her overall pose looks really strange... im not sure if its even phyicly posible... something to keep in mind for future artworks... not bad... but needs alot of improvement...

Sentrix responds:

Love the feedback. Keep it coming, itâEUTMll only help me improve^_^

[Yoshi The Dinosaur]

oh look.. its yoshi...

simple but effective 4 tone shading, i feel that the spikes on the back are different base colours... or just shaded wrongly... also try to keep the light source in the same place.. as most of the shading shows its top right... but there are areas *like the tail* which say bottom right... just a point... very animation styled... not bad... but just need to keep the areas of your shading in mind...
