DannyP's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[1 Day]

Ambiguous

I rather like the one that has "welcome home" on the door and the one to the right of it. The one all the way right in the same line looks off to me, though. The eyes look rather out of line. The one above it also looks a little weird to me; I'd think part of the jaw or something would be visible. Perhaps the right ear, too.

The colouring and the way you do the hair is awesome.

[turtleco cutout]

Neat

I like seeing art that's more than just art... though I suppose the amount of details and such as art aren't too amazing.

turtleco responds:

I guess you are right, it isn't a very complex or detailed drawing, but its a cute little cut-out for fun.

[Portal Bot Posse]

Inspirational

I don't know who all these robots are, but they sure look awesome. I immediately regretted not being a part of Robot Day when I saw this in the side banners.

[Monsieur Toilet]

Amusing in a weird way

Your dithering is quite impressive. Some parts of the picture seem a bit plain. Other parts just seem sorta rough/rushed, but I think it adds to the creepiness.

[happy]

Very nice

Very well done. I just sorta don't like that white on the lower lip. Doesn't quite look like shine/glossiness to me if that's what it's meant to be.

Nice stuff

Indeed, the colours and crazy stuff are pretty interesting. However, even without strict rules, those stars are bothering me with their imperfect shapes. They're close, and it's fine to bend and twist them a bit, but methinks their lines need to line up. You could draw a typical lazy star shape in one stroke and then erase the inside lines after or trace it.
The green shirt could maybe use some fold(s), maybe not. Nice stuff, makes me wanna try it out.

OnionsXD responds:

I agree with you on teh stars I drew one spike and copied it five times and treied to make a star out of it. I didn't think of using the line tool which would've worked better. The green shirt coulda used some more detail including a fold or two. Thanks for the review! They always make me feel so giggly inside! :D

[Arch]

Cool

He looks cool. The sword's design is quite sweet. The shine on the armour seems well done. Other than the lack of background, there are two things about this picture that bother me, though.
The first is his foot that's angled towards us. It just sorta looks to me like the little toe side is bigger than the big toe side, though I'm pretty sure they're the same size. I would maybe try to have the big toe's side planted more firmly rather than curved up a bit like that at the sole. It also seems that foot's heel goes farther back than the other heel, which might be kinda awkward/perhaps impossible since that leg is closer to us everywhere else.
The second is that I think his crotch might be a little low, but maybe that's just compared to my style... I personally try to have the wrist in line with the bottom of the crotch.

WildArch responds:

Yeaa! Big reviews, been a while.
But you're probably right about the feet , I thought it was okay if the heels were both at the same level of height.
You could say it's in my style too since , the proportions i'm using comes mostly from preferences while keeping tabs on what they are supposed to look like.

[Cross Yo Eyes!]

Awesome

Getting my eyes crossed properly was pretty tricky, but well worth it.

Tip to anyone having troubles: Hold your index finger downwards in front of you. Align it with the top of this guy's hat. Bring your index finger around 4 inches from your face. Look at your index finger and only your index finger; if your index finger is "doubling", you're not looking at it enough. Keep staring at your index finger until the blurry figure in the background looks like they're sorta glowing, then try to look at his eyes. You'll know if you did it right. If not, try again!

brettamatowski responds:

Chicka yeah! So glad a select few people can actually get it to work without a Stereoscopic Viewer to help. I guess I trained myself as a kid in order to do it easily. I suggest NOT painting while cross-eyed. Ouch.

[Art Portal Bot]

It's pretty good

I don't really like how the robot is all the way to the left rather than centered or something. My eyes go to the center immediately and just see the background lines as the main focus, which is perhaps also due to the contrast caused by the white that's mostly only around there. I somehow didn't notice the title at all and I was about to say "It's cool how it's some sort of art robot", haha. It doesn't have that Mega Man style the other bots have.
This probably doesn't matter at all, but I just gotta point it out. Isn't this a cyborg instead of a robot?

amyrenee responds:

Thanks, and i guess he is a cyborg but he is still part robot

[Professional Meanbot Smasher]

Good

Your pixel art has quite nice technique.
