Fro's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Star Fairy]

.. I love your stuff..

Simply amazing. You just take my reviews from four or five sections of suggestions to just a couple of sections all full of praise. I can't even start to imagine the work and effort put into your work. By far the best stuff I have seen on the site from any artist. I might not have visited too many pieces of art yet, but still great.

Maybe the only complaint I could even think about would be too many stars put together. Perhaps seems a bit congested there. Other than that, very relaxing, calming piece of art that deserves a lot of recognition. Keep up the good work.

When I did this originally, it was a lot bigger then this - the stars did look a lot better then, honest! lol. Also, this was only the second or third image I did of stars, way back. I would post my more recent stuff but some of that is unfinished and the rest are paintings and I need to re-install the scanner before I can put them on.

Thanks for the review. :)

[Save us 222]

Really had no clue what was going on..

I tried to just look at it as much as I could, but still couldn't really understand your painting here. I then read the other reviews and read what they were beginning to see, but to be completely honest I still couldn't see or even imagine something form this picture.

I really don't know what Code Save us 222 is so perhaps you could explain a little in the author comments about it? Also, example is how you spell that. ;)

Looks to me like it just needs to be completely redone. I couldn't see anything in it whatsoever. To me, even though it's still stretching it a bit, it just looks like some sort of cross with fire or something similar in the background.

I would suggest maybe using a smaller brush and slowing down on this a little bit. I'm no artist myself, but I do have some paintings from elementary school that I can say are a bit better than this.

Don't be discouraged though and keep trying/working.

[Good ol' hank]

Only a couple of things I can think about..

First off decent picture of Hank all around, better than the one that you had with little to no background. I think there are a couple of small things that could have been done to improve it though.

The goggles look very rough. Kind of sloppy, and lines aren't as clean as the other ones you did. The inside and outside circles that you used for the goggles weren't done very well. Perhaps you could have used some sort of tool to make them a little smoother, but if you wanted just free hand I recommend simply doing them very lightly and trying to perfect the circle as best as you can.

The background could have been a little bit more detailed, but I like the fact that you had one. Perhaps you could also use a little more shading/shadowing even though you did use a little bit.

[Hank MC 6]

I don't like this one as much as your Tricky one.

Let me say first off that Hank himself looks great. Again, almost looks traced to a point that's how good it looks. It does seem that you missed the feet in this picture.

I think that the top of his hand held melee weapon was a little sloppy. Perhaps the whole weapon seemed a bit sloppy. The gun itself has a few angles that just don't look the best on the front.

The pencil markings on the words in the lower right hand corner should have been darker in a couple of places and perhaps on the M you should have erased the inside lines where you crossed the bottom.

I think the coolest thing you could have done to this is add a background. Perhaps you didn't want to just in case of running across the problem of messing the picture up, but I still think it would have looked pretty good with a background.

[First flight]

WOAH

I've been so surprised with the art portal so far. Amazing stuff so far and I have to say that this has to be one of the best pieces of art that I have seen so far. The amount of detail that was put into not only the dragons, but just everything in itself. The grass, tree, rocks, sky, etc..

Great colors and everything is just good about this. I really can't think of anyway to critique it. Good job all around!

Wow, thanks!

[Fireman]

That's hot

It's great how you used vivid coloring to give this fireman some flame. The fire hair makes a great touch too, especially in the style you put it in. I kinda was expecting a different kind of fireman, but this guy's just as good = P Does he put out fires for a living?
Hey, also great work on the background, I especially love the blend of red, white, and black, it goes great with his expression.

[mia]

Nice work man

You've managed to tell a story with just a part of a mia. I got to say, I'm disappointed, I really thought she was purple until I read the rest of your comment. Oh, and I like how you made the border fade to white, it makes your work look romantic, but her eyes look away from you, almost as if she is looking at someone else. Great job, you got a lot going on and I can tell you worked hard on this.
10/10

[Tricky the clown]

Art review number 4.

I always liked this picture.

Don't forgot the letter r in Tricky. Unless you wanted to name him Ticky on purpose. Anyway, I really like the pencil to paper style that you have here. Very simple, but I wouldn't mind seeing a version in which you added color.

I would recommend making a completely new picture if you were to add color just so you don't ruin this one of course. Very good picture though. It almost seems traced that's how good it is.

Keep up the good work idiot-buster.

idiot-buster responds:

I'm very glad you like it. Well I don't like to add color to most of these because of the fact that after speding over a hour in this That if i try to color it in i might mess it up. I can draw, but by no means can i color between the lines. I would like to make one with color, but i don't know what to colors to use on "tricky" maby alot of grays or tanish colors would due.

Thanks for the review man.

[TehSlapHappy Movie]

Art review 3.

Oh no, pigment. >.<

I love the very simple cartoon style you have here. Seems like something that I could make so perhaps I'll try my hand in submitting some art in the future. (Probably not)

Anyway, very cartoonish style that would look great in any flash submission. Keep up the good work TehSlapHappy. I know you will.

tehslaphappy responds:

LOL, thanks brah.

Art review 2

Wow, this is really good. How and what did you make this with?

Very realistic picture. Something that I could see in a comic book or a very good flash submission. Ha, you would make amazing flashes with artwork like this. Even if you aren't good with flash you could find an animator. It really looks that good.

Just taking a quick look at your other art I think this one is the best from the ones that I see. Very detailed and it looks great.

About how long did this take you to make?

KittyKat87 responds:

Thank you for the review! I'm glad you like it. ^_^

I used Photoshop, and took references from another picture. Um... I'm going to estimate about 3-4 hours all together to make. I'm not sure exactly.

I've thought about making flash cartoons, but I probably wouldn't use this style of art since it just takes so long. XD But, I do have a comic book/graphic novel or whatever in the works. Not with this guy, but yeah.

Anyway, thanks again!
