Dalenbourg's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Rooster]

True grit

I saw it, and will vouch for its awesominity.

I like your use of space in this portrait, it really depicts the man as the force he was. Although, perhaps he could have been in his pajamas...

StickDinosaur responds:

Haha he rocked that onesie

[The Barbarian]

A success!

I recognized this from the thumbnail, that crazy conan...

The colouring's good, but you need to recreate the human figure that is in the picture rather than copy it, because that leads to an uncanny valley sort of thing.

[Morshu]

An wondrous display of proper worship!

I'm sorry link, i can't give you credit...

The only way that this could be improved is if you made the background more detailed to be Morshu's shop or something.

Good work!

[Urban Sniper sketch]

A foundation!

You seem to know what you are going for the most part, looks like the proportions are sound, the guy has a GBA(good shit)

what you need to do now is darken your shadows and clean up scratchlines. Youve got this, yo

thanks. I try on my free time

[Cleric]

Looks strong!

I can imagine she's efficient in purging the unholy...
Nice backstory, and the armor looks really classy and believable.

Overall this checks out, but there are a few problem areas.
the fabric doesnt flow as properly around her crotch as it does everywhere else. I cant sense much mass.
Im not to sure on the armor texture, but that could just be the shading. the shadows would make the character stand out much more and look much better if they were implemented fully.
i'd check the left arm too, the foreshortening looks a little off.

good stuff yo.

Sentrix responds:

I can see what you're saying. Thanks for the feedback ^_^

[Desert Ogre]

wikkid!

this is an impressive character draw, i especially like the axe (good perspective!), and the clouds in the distance... good colour, too!

It looks like you need a little more practice with hands, hand grips, and armor research (the wristguards are a little low).

My closing comment is that the pants, for them belonging to a violent desert orc, look quite clean and plain. if they were pants made by barbaric people they would have a rougher thread to them; if they were stolen, they would definitely be more elaborate than just straight "pants".

looks good, bro.

[Chow 44 - Star Colossus+Kid]

Wicked effects.

The colour is amazing looking and such, but dont forget to get anatomical proportions correct and all... I looked too deep into the orange and blue contrast and saw a multitude of errors and such, especially with the kid.

The coloring itself is sort of unfinished it appears, but still far better than anything i've ever coloured in my life... the obscuration of forms due to it is the only problem i have about it...

Don't get too engrossed in your newfound adoring mass, you still have far to improve...

Kamikaye responds:

I know. Anatomy is my big weakness.
I started to make studies of people in real life in my sketchbook some time ago. It already improved my anatomy (I started at zero basicly).
