Brushtale's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Maintenance]

Incredible! I love the vibrant colors and vast distance. The dark foreground receding into lighter, almost misty landscapes, where one UFO seems to be tractor beaming something up? It feels like it tells a story. The tilt of the closest UFO blending into the tilt of the clouds is an extra nice touch, too. The eye flows so well along this piece, and there's so much to look at. Awesome job!

So impressed with this piece! The breathe-in / breathe-out animation is unbelievably smooth and natural. I could watch the pixels along the fingers ebb and flow for hours. So much mastery and attention to detail here, and so much going on at once! Incredible job!

[[Ratchet and Clank] Rivet]

So cute! I love the thick ink lines, and the color looks so consistent? You followed Rivet's art style really well, too! Super impressed with this traditional piece!

ClmPaper responds:

Thanks! The colour looking consistent is one of the properties of alcohol markers, i.e. copics, winsor&newtons promarkers, ohuhu etc.

It's such a simple little piece, but I'm really digging it! The face is so mischievous but so calm, and the eyes are beautifully drawn. The hair has a great loft to it, and the locks all part at natural points. What bits I can see of the neck and shoulders (and that hand) look perfect, too! Highkey want to boop the snoot, even though I'm sure its inadvisable. Awesome job here!

Anonimatto responds:

im very glad you like it! Thank you very much!
I wouldn't recommend bopping him, you probably get bitten haha

[Nal and Elric]

Phenomenal piece! The characters are beautifully drawn and they feel totally natural and in motion. The trees, sky, and snow, all have some masterful brushstrokes and soft textures. The pines especially look so simple up close, but they trick the eye perfectly. Lastly, I adore the color palette. The sky has that perfect pre-dawn or late evening hue that adds just enough warmth to the piece, before it gets sandwiched out by cool-gray trees and clouds. Everywhere I look, there's more to love here. Incredible job!

HornyOni responds:

Omg, thank you so much for such feedback!! I'm happy to hear that~

[The Wilderness]

Ooh, nice! I'm loving those scrubby grass textures? The paint strokes work so well for the greenery, and they contrast great with the smoother dirt and stone. In fact, I love the textures you used so much that I'd love to see more texture added to the clouds? The hard shading stands out a bit on them, and I feel like some of the softer brush strokes in the picture would look phenomenal there! Overall, great job!

Queenhomestuck34 responds:

Ah, thank you! :D

[Malon and Marin]

Holy smokes, I love this piece! The poses feel so natural and weighted, especially in the arms? The outfits sit and crinkle perfectly. That skirt waft to the side adds so much motion. Hair? Eyes? even the little posterboard background? Everything feels so complete and well-done. Honestly, I think you have a great art style, and it shines so bright in this piece. Awesome job!

[Yuki]

Maximum floof! The outfit looks super cute too! I love the colors and the playful pose, and the simple background works really well. Kudos!

[At your service~]

Wow! The pose? The crinkle of the clothes? Especially the posing of the hands? There's a lot to love here! Great job!

[Moxie Burger 🍔]

The birthday candle on the burger is such a nice touch! I also love the detail on the food and the too-relatable way that it's all trying to escape out the other side of the bun at the first bite. The expression is adorable, too! You have truly created the perfect nom. Awesome job!
