instantbenz's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cribal Battle]

all of the breasts seem to be moving the right way for their support, i guess i'm looking at the background more for this one, you've proven you understand the figure well in this one along with your other ills on here, but the back seems flat. I know you've put effort into the figures in the back and maybe it's their positioning that could save you from too much background work ... maybe they are higher in some way. well done though shiny women fighting to the death aintnothingwrongwiththat

[Parasoul skirt shot]

I'm getting two angles on the face, but other than that the hands are great rest of the anatomy is pretty solid

[A Wolf Without Clothes]

well done on the butt, just enough attention, plus the stroke around the main subject draws attention to the right place, i could use either a bit more or a bit less of the wolf head as a framing element on the right, either cover the hair or move it more as it's tangenty also the eye might be bigger that close, but good work, i'm going to remember that form of triangle you've used on the spine base for future ills

[Trash Mammal Concept 2]

creative, graffitiesk, good consistent style

[Conquistas!]

i could be missing something about your whole story here, but if you isolate the head and foreshortened arm of the foreground character , you will know that it is a man's face and hand. the hair breasts and pant style are about all that tell me it's a woman. it's really well done aside from physical male/female differences. movement, shading, colors and texture are all solid

MikeLuckas responds:

A man's hand. Yup. Sure.

[A Perfect Exchange]

amazing consistency and imaginative way to tell the story of this mythological character. great elements being placed all around. love it

Mahjix responds:

Thank you!! :}

[Lilith Aensland]

great use of lighting to set the scene and of course work in repetition the hand is a little tough to convince me, but next to datass, who can complain? the goopy thing is starting to be pretty 'in' right now and i don't really get why. also as stated before the neck is too bold in shading and the shape is really harsh in comparison the curvy bum

Mahjix responds:

Yeah, for whatever reason, I'm afraid of drawing thinner necks...

[School Shock]

good detail and decisions on where to draw the eye, however your figure and background are nearly the same value. the figure would pop with a slightly different value than her stockings. hue combinations are solid solid as is form. bravo

[Camera Selfportrait]

Hands

you can charcoal them. feel privileged, this is my first 10 for non-flash work on this site. :D

I'm big on hands ... the mark of a true artist. I still hate feet though.

MikeS responds:

Thanks for the 10 and review! Yeah the grid really helps with blowing things up for me. Let's me get a sketch down quicker and allows me to focus on the shading/form. Really pleased with how the hands turned out. Never thought about drawing feet though.. lol

[arctic war beast]

Sounds like an interesting contest

The point of view is pretty meh. The atmospheric prospective is pulled off well.
