Thetageist's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Y2K]

It moves too fast for me to see the characters clearly, but I love the designs so much, and the colors!

Also love how you worked the pride flags into some of their designs in a really creative way!

[Have you called me?]

Awww! It's so pretty! The bright colors, cute style, and the painting-like background go very well with the setting and general feel. I love the hair. It's not too detailed, but the detail that there is really makes it stand out. Also love the back lighting. Overall a very nice artwork.

lavourse responds:

i appreciate your lovely comment very much~

[Los Angeles Traffic]

Aww! That's such a cute little 3D object/gif thing! Wish it was bigger so I didn't have to strain my eyes to pick up the details, but I love it!

devilsgarage responds:

ah thanks :D
These file sizes get bigger and bigger
here's something, but it does not really help much with the quality

[HoneyWell Garden]

Hi! Thanks for following me! Since I don't have enough to say to warrant a private message, I decided to check out your art and thank you in my review. This looks really cool, very good vector art. Looks like it'll have something to do with gardening and beekeeping, am I correct? I'm excited to know more about this.

BlueCrystalStudio responds:

Yes, exactly. You plant seeds and grow them into Flowers wich you sell with profit. They also produce honey that you can sell or use to upgrade the beehive. For all those money from profits you build and decorate your home, wich % increase EXP you gain, increase % of your production, etc..

[big blast]

Another cool magic/superpower animation! I really love the effects on this one. It was confusing the first few times watching it, because it almost looked like the bunny-creature was being knocked back by the blast, but eventually I figured out that that wasn't the case. You're doing a very good job of this overall.

[focus blast]

I really love how well the effects of the blast are made. I also surprised myself by liking the kind of minimalist art style. I kind of wish that there was a cleaner transition from the end of the animation to the beginning when it looped, but that's alright.

[Starset]

Ohhhhhh that's so cool! OHHHHH THAT'S SO COOL! Okay, now that I've figured out my thoughts on this, I'm expanding my review. This is probably one of the most beautiful pieces of vent art that I've ever seen. Only question is: If this character is truly going to be recurring (as in you'll draw her multiple times), the design seems a bit too complicated to do that easily. Other than that, great work!

[Portrait : new style]

I really love the way this is done! It reminds me of something, but I don't know what. I'll have to think on that. Either something sci-fi dystopia or outfits worn by an 80s band. I'd love to see more art in this style.

Vedanta responds:

I am planning to continue this style :)

[Come n' Get It]

I really love what you did with this. The design is well thought-out and continues the style of the mask. The lighting and shading are very, very well-done. With the background, the general doll-ish-ness of the character, and the creepiness of Phanto in general, it's really creepy and I wouldn't have it any other way. P.S. What were some of the art tricks you learned? I'm curious.

PajamaHam responds:

Thanks, I put a good amount of time working out her design, looked at Mario 2 as a whole to draw inspiration. As for art tricks, this is the first piece I've ever used Gradient Maps on. As well as working in separate layers while working out the shading before a merging, it makes for much cleaner lighting in general. As well as properly practicing my grayscale checks after and during the application of color. Also rim lights... lots of rim lighting. It was a nice learning experience
