[Costume Jam 2024 Banner Artwork]

This is really creative, love it! What tools or software do you use for your art?

EmsDeLaRoZ responds:

I used medibang for this artwork, but sometimes I use Photoshop, that's mostly it

[Steel]

Good use of black and white. Your piece has such great energy! What’s the most challenging project you’ve undertaken from a process perspective?

TomaFokio responds:

To my surprise, it's not that difficult. The only thing that infuriated me the most was these wires with white contours

[Cassandra Black and Orange]

Thank you so much! your design is great, and the way you did the background and added details to the hair was an excellent decision.

@DioShiba, what is your opinion on style?

DioShiba responds:

Glad you love the work. Trying to think of the best way to express my opinion on artistic style to give the best answer possible.

Here's the thing: You can study many different styles of art that has been done in any medium but ultimately, you can't just force creating your own style right off the bat until you hit a certain mastery in your craft.

Part of the reason why I say this is because going into the basic foundations of art you can do whatever you wish with traditional or digital art. Hell even pixel art still has those basic foundations. Realistically the more you practice the more your own style will come into fruition naturally and you can always experiment with what works and what doesn't by learning from your own previous works. There's a method to one's madness in developing a style.

I'm not sure if that makes much sense but I can try to elaborate further if it's not 100% clear.

[Pico Black and Orange Collab]

You are absolutely right; Pico really helped bring together all generations of NewGrounds users. The way you have that gun spinning is super cool!

[Madness Day 2024]

The team looks awesome! Happy Madness Day!

[Madness Spoilerification]

Awesome, he is literally so mad!

[Mexican Independence Day Collab Wimmelblider]

Great art! Awesome collab! Wish all a happy Mexican Independence Day!

[Boris]

I think your art is really nice, and your color choices are great. The shading and lighting look good as well.

[Happy Birthday Team Fortress!]

Absolutely amazing scene! It’s great to see how Team Fortress 2 has brought so much joy and wonderful inspiration for creativity. It is an excellent game, and your art is super awesome!

@TomaFokio, what is your favourite advice on creating art?

@TomaFokio, what do you think about Team Fortress 2?

TomaFokio responds:

Thankuuu!
1. You can try to look up to the artists you like (who really draw well). And don't give up your work on art halfway through, because you'll regret it later
2. The game itself is great! The community is also quite creative and inspiring! (despite the MANY disputes within the community)

[Mecha Mayhem Collab]

Wow, wow, wow—outstanding Collab! The silhouettes burst with character and attitude. You are all very skilled artists with unique personalities, and you communicate them so well.

@fish-flop, @GuyWhoCanDraw, @IWillEndYou, @Wyat-ttt, what habits as artists are you proud to have developed?

fish-flop responds:

Thanks for the kind words! Haha, most of my art habits are bad ones that make me less efficient, overall. However, I do really enjoy my process for inks/linework. Clip Studio has a lot of cool options for vector linework that I find really helpful, since I like to keep my lines crisp and sharp.
