BlueMonday1984's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Blast Off! (Pokémon FanArt)]

Prepare for trouble, and make it double.
I gotta say, you did a good job getting the series' artstyle down. Its not a perfect recreation, but that's just a minor side-effect of your own style shining through.

StitchMiss responds:

I used to love singing through their whole monologue as a kid XD Probably still know it haha
Thank you so much! ^o^ The first few tries were pretty bad so I am glad I am getting closer to the style X3 Will definitely try and do some of my favorite Pokémon next!

[Capri Redraw 2011-2025]

God damn. Its kind of a given you'd have developed a lot as an artist, but it blew me away seeing how far you've come.

Shi-Gu responds:

hahaha I really appreciate it!

[art trade 2!!!!!!!!!]

silly ^o^
Aoi looks fun to be around - her "dead face" sneakers look pretty nice, as does her checkerboard party hat.

You did her justice in this - nicely done.

jazzmatazz responds:

thank you!!!!!!! thats very sweet !!!!!!!!

[art trade numjero 1!!!!]

prune juice :)
Very cute design. Guy looks quite approachable with that simple hoodie and hairdo.

[pandora]

Pandora? As in Pandora's Box? Feels like this is a bit of a hint as to her past.
That old concept art's pretty neat - in retrospect, the cuts you took from Super Mario RPG are pretty obvious.

[New key art for Leo]

This is a definite step up overall - where the 2023 key art felt a bit flat, this has a definite sense of depth to it (especially in the hair).
Leo looks a lot more serious in this - I'd say that fits him pretty well.

(Sidenote: Your link to the old render's broken - mind fixing that?)

EthanDoesaThing responds:

Thank you very much! Also i tried fixing the link but it doesn't seem to wanna work regardless, very sorry

[Weather Report]

If I had to report on weather like that bun over there, I'd be looking done with life too.

This piece overall feels pretty grimy, like its taking place in a run-down studio - a feeling helped by the heavy dithering and the complete lack of characters other than the bun.

(Also noticed one of the PCs had Solitaire open - nice little easter egg.)

AVQ responds:

Love your breakdown, thank you! I am proud of the atmosphere I was able to capture on this, one of the most successful I've done so far =P

[Alien GPS]

As its name implies, this is a deeplly alien and otherworldly-looking piece, helped by the lower-res text clashing with the very high-res, almost gritty-looking image.

This feels like a WinAmp skin from another dimension, if that makes any sense.

[Nier: Automata 2B]

holy shit, its 2b
Goddamn beautiful piece, with a tone as icy as 2B's demeanour. No clue what plant you used for the outline around her, but its pretty.

[ESCAPE!]

BREAKING: Typhlosion Escapes Jail
Nice sense of motion on Emolga and Pikachu, and excellent work on the lighting - gives a strong sense of power to Phlosh's flames.
