Mightydein's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shantae half genie hero FanArt]

Your drawings have really evolved a lot.

Your characters are starting to have chins and Jawlines.

A lot of old drawings used circles for heads but now you have improved significantly .

Your new work seems to have an increasing understanding of human anatomy.

This has to be the most professional looking of your work so far.

I look forward to seeing what your new art looks like in 2017.

I will be reviewing your new work according to higher standards because of your impressive improvements.

You got more talent than I expected.

Keep drawing and stay motivated.

Wriizzy responds:

Thanks dude that really means a lot, I appreciate the kind words and support.

[Sentry Knight: Tactics - Official Promotional Art]

The drawing looks very cool.

I love the lively cartoony like characters for this drawing.

The Knight is my favorite character out of the whole bunch.

I like the contrasting color schemes.

The environment has an effect on how each character is colored.

You used two light sources in the overall picture.

That is difficult to do.

You did a great job on this fun drawing.

I love it.

[Jedi Leonardo]

I love Ninja turtles.

The picture has lots of shadows, lighting and details.

The light saber has an effect on the lights and shadows.

The lighting and shadows have clear direction.

The picture of Leonardo can be improved by drawing him in a more dynamic action poses.

Detailed characters are a bit more difficult to pose but it can be done.

Use an invisible line of action to help create a direction of your poses.

Create the skeleton of your drawing to assist yourself with creating a three dimensional drawing.

Your doing awesome work so far.

I look forward to seeing your new stuff.

Keep up the good work.

[Loh-Om-Em-Tu]

This picture looks really cool.

I love all the shading, cross hatching, hatching and different textures created from black ink.

I can tell that you love using lots of detail in your pictures.

[Watercolor Clouds]

You did a excellent job at painting your cloud with such vivid colors.

Did you look at actual clouds while painting this picture?

I love all the textures within the clouds in your picture.

The birds in the sky was a nice touch too.

This picture is awesome.

artbycaiti responds:

Thank you very much! And yes I like to have a few references to look back on to get the feel for the clouds. I enjoy taking pictures of really awesome sunsets and cloudy days keep on hand.

[Commission: rawrawraw]

The guy in the picture looks really evil.

I love how the objects with depth cast their own shadows.

The folds in the shirt was a nice touch.

I love how you give the guy an obvious collar bone.

I noticed some shadows within shadows in some places.

The brush strokes are very clean for a quick sketch.

The overall picture was enjoyable for me.

I hope more people hire you to do comissions.

[struggle's not over]

This picture is very beautiful.

I enjoy the contrast of dark colors with light colors.

The lighting effects work well together with your characters.

The characters fit in with the environment created in the picture.

The characters not only blend but you use brighter colors for them.

The characters are more colorful than background itself.

The characters really pop in this picture.

I would be interested in seeing how your future characters will evolve away from anime style.

The overall picture is a very strong piece.

Keep up the good work.

[Calm Before the Storm]

The house on each side makes an excellent framing boarder for the overall picture.

Tracing the houses and ground as one outline will show the overall shape of the picture.

The shapes within shapes work together in harmony.

You have more talent than you give yourself credit for.

That's an awfully kind review. Thank you so much! I just pretended like I knew what I was doing with this one. Andways, thanks again :D

[Tömgarten]

This room appears to be based entirely on an actual room.

The coloring is tastefully done and has a few subtle textures along with some subtle contrast in the darker parts of this room.

This is a very warm and inviting background.

Bertn1991 responds:

It actually is a real room. I did a master copy of a photograph, though, I tried to make the colors more pronounce and exaggerated. And of course I also added the paintings in the background and little things like that.

Thanks so much for writing such a kind review. I'm genuinely happy you liked it :^)

* Oh, and Tömgarten means library.

[Custard The Christmas Dragon.]

This picture has a lot of obvious influence from dragonall.

The background reminds me of king kai's planet.

The dragon looks a bit impatient and is waiting for the red headed girl, ball of yarn and floating monster to make their wish.

The shadows on the ground in the shapes of it's object is an interesting subtle detail.

The two planets in the sky and cloud formations appear to have the most detail.

A good solid drawing but a bit more extra polish in the shading, lighting and shadows would have been perfect.

Keep making those brand new drawings and slow down if needed.

Bertn1991 responds:

Thanks, Mighty!

I didn't realize you were a Dragon Ball fan, then again who isn't these days? I've seen every episode of Dragon Ball, DBZ, and even GT. This doesn't really pertain to anything, but I'm pretty big on Dragon Ball, so I'll take a Toriyama comparison any day.

I wasn't going for a King Kai's planet look, but now that you mention it, it is shockingly similar.

I love the observation you make about the girl making her wish and the dragon being impatient. I honestly hadn't even thought about that. I just kinda drew my mind without putting much thought into what was actually going on. I guess doing things that way, the story is whatever you make of it.

This doesn't have anything to do with anything, but the planet is Earth, but in my own fictional universe in which all of my drawings and animations take place. The two bodies in the sky are two of Earth's three moons.

Thank you for a thoughtful review. I fully agree with everything you mentioned. This was the first time that the bulk of the drawing wasn't done in MS paint, so much of it was me experimenting with new things like shadows. And this again has nothing to do with anything - I don't know if you clicked on the full sized image, but this drawing is ENORMOUS.

Anyways, thank you very much. I'll keep on trying my very best, if even just for my few, but very awesome fans :-)
