JoshSummana's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Bond...]

Not bad dude. Try to work on face proportions and colours - there are so many different blues/greys in the face which make the difference between something rubbery and something life like. Another thing is the brush. Try not to make everything soft or it can again add to the rubbery look. A tip would be to add mono chromatic noise at 400, add spatter filter, blur it a little, set it to overlay and then reduce the opacity. It will add some grain to your image to add texture. Overall not a bad attempt :)

Rhunyc responds:

Dude, thanks so much for the great help! I'll definitely be re-checking this comment out for reference in the near future... thank you. :)

[Narghot's Ascent]

Cool. I was just wondering why his right arm is twisted?

Qikalain responds:

because thats how giant demon roll

[Clown]

Hey its pretty cool :) Id just be careful because clowns have been done to death lol :P

Cope2K responds:

Yeah thanks! This was from a description but yeah clowns are really overdone :/ Thanks for the comment though!

[Modular Optical Enhancer]

cool syle

The only thing I dont understand is the lighting on the fingers. The light is coming from her right on the middle finger, but on the rest of the fingers its the other side. But again cool style :)

DeliciousOrange responds:

I don't really see that, but keep in mind that there is more than one light source in the picture.

[Hand 7]

good!

Good study :) although instead of having contours of colour - try blending them instead, natural skin (which I assuming you are trying to achieve by doing a study) is smooth and soft. So shadows dont have hard edges etc.

HybridMind responds:

Totally good point. I guess I'm just working with this study in a stylistic way. I'm drawing this in Flash so I don't have much easy blending capability since it is all vector.

[State of Decay]

cool

Not bad dude. You have done a pretty good job in creating movement in the piece. The only thing I would say is, the background is pretty blurred and stuff which is fine because its behind the subject, however you should try sharpening/detailing the subject where you want the eyes to look. its pretty hard to see where the light source is though. Other than that its cool

Rhunyc responds:

Thanks man, I appreciate it. :)

[Kisses]

Keep it up!! :)

Not bad dude. I would recommend using a a randomised scatter brush with white to get those hot spots on the alien head to get that shiny look they have :)

Nice one :)

darthnebula responds:

True, I was having a tough time making the bastard shiny lol

[Mappo Runt]

heya

Nice style man :) loose, but not at the same time :)

Artofinca responds:

Thanks!

[firefly study]

Pretty good

Hey dude.... from the bottom of the nose up seems fine.... but I cant help but see something rong with the shape of her jaw.. and something funny with the teeth. But other than that the skin tones are well painted and the eyes are well painted! :D

theWesley responds:

thanks for the review :) you are spot on with what you said too, the entire shape of the head was giving me nightmares and the teeth are too flat, i didnt arch the jawline nearly enough :P but thats why we study, gotta learn somehow

[Redhead]

Pretty cool

Not bad dude..... only thing I would critique is that the head is ever so slightly too big for the body but other than that its cool

poxpower responds:

alright I shrunk it a little, does look better
