Kilcra's art Reviews on Newgrounds

Great work with this mean girl! You made the spikes on her sleeves and wrist bands really bulky and solid, and I like that effect. The thick outline isn't working here, and I think its because its too dark. I understand the effect you were going for here, but I think it would work better if you had a thin dark outline and another thick outline outside that one thats medium/ light purple. I think the lighter purple outline would make her really pop here against that teal backdrop. Solid work with the anatomy and expression, and I'm really liking this graphic style!

I love your lines and color, it looks very natural! The spindly vines in the foreground look great too. The airbrushing in the background is a little distracting and I feel like it would have worked better as solid objects. Since its the only airbrushed thing in the the picture, it doesn't look far away, it looks out of place. The colors are perfect tho, and the lack of detail in the background works very well. Great work! The style makes me immediately interested in the characters, and its awesome.

Dronema responds:

Hello!! Thank you so so much for your critique! Now that you point it out I absolutely agree about the airbrushing things in the background, they are mostly distracting and a solid color would've worked just fine as you've pointed out! I will keep that in mind in future drawings!

And thank yo so much to for the compliments! I'm glad other aspects like the lines and colors actually hit the mark!
[The characters are from the webcomic Homestuck, btw!]

Once again, thank you so much!!!

[Creepy]

Love those crazy eyes, and the claws remind me of sloth claws. Great stuff

I think this is a really successful color experiment, and it looks really cool. The black is the only thing that's taking away from this, and I think it would look more confident if that saturated blue was your darkest color. The tones in the face and eyes are beautiful tho, he looks like he's made of sunsets :D

[Zoopin the Third]

Damn dude! You made the cars look so alive and dynamic, and the whole scene jumps out the screen! It's so easy to make cars and machines look dead and stiff, and you completely destroyed that tendency here. Awesome stuff!

JFrancisFright responds:

Thanks buddy! I always try to make vehicles feel like characters too ^_^

[Wise Sage]

He's so fascinated with her story, its adorable! Also, damn, the textures and details in her hands and skin are hypnotizing.

JFrancisFright responds:

Thanks buddy! I had fun drawing those textures XD

[Eagle Eye]

Awesome job with the solid shapes and color! I love the red tones in the shading, it helps to bring it to life.
Aside from making the background purple, like spyronos suggested, I'd also make that tree a color that's closer to the sky color. It's definitely taking the focus away from your beautiful bird boy and hurting the composition since its so stark and white.
Really awesome work on this, you have a really interesting style!

ribbitdoodle responds:

Ooh, I see what you mean about the tree competing for attention too much. Solid advice, thanks!!

[Evening thunder]

Beautiful color! The depth in the background really makes the character stand out, and the light reflecting on his face from the glasses is magnificent. Love this!

[Plz No Steppy]

Those patterns are gorgeous, and the I love how pronounced the tendons are un her hands.

ToxxyKiss responds:

It's a him ;3 But that doesn't detract from how sweet your comment was so thank you very much!

[Worm thing.]

I love that his eyes are smaller than his nostrils and his lips are bigger than the rest of his head. Makes him so freaky to look at!
