BottleTopBillFanclub's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[SWMG]

Shadow Wizard Money Gang, we love casting spells! Your art is great, with a good background and well-stylized text.

How did you discover Newgrounds? How did you become interested in art, and what are your opinions on the Certified Funny Wizard Gang?

cok3tak3r responds:

I'll assume they are cool because they are also wizards. the Rich Money Chain Gang are opps tho.

and I've known about Newgrounds forever but I only started a while ago when I got a drawing tablet, I'm surprised my style stuck so well.

[Digimon Fanarts!]

Great work—it's terrific how you use such vibrant and powerful colors that convey so much soul, fun, and adventure.

How did you get interested in creating art?

Btoon12 responds:

Oh well! I personally loved watching cartoons on TV and play video games on my Ds! so I basically wanted to do the same thing xD! Since I was very little, very very little I have been drawing, I like to create stories and ocs, eventually I started doing commissions and selling adoptables and I have fun with that too ! (I don't care that art is no longer a well-paid job, I would live off this all my life )

Also thank you for appreciating my art! You flatter me a lot. 🥹

[Charizard Flying (Animation!)]

Excellent animation! How did you learn to animate so well, and what was your process for creating your Charizard flying?

Araina-art responds:

Thank you!!!!!!!
Can't say I even animate that much, but If you get the timing and frames right you can animate really anything! I looked at how some animes space their frames depending how close and far the object is from the camera.
I also used an official model sheet for Charizard and studied that quite closely!

As for the shading, I did two layers for each shadow and highlight, and used the Gaussian blur effect for that copied layer. it gives it that nice cloudy/glow effect!

[Lírio]

Such a bold and dynamic piece! What advice would you give to someone just starting in art?

PitangaDeJardim responds:

Hey! First of all, thanks so much for your comment—It really makes me happy to know that someone likes my art! As for advice, something I wish I’d known earlier is that you don't have to hide your sketch layer. Those sketchy lines can actually add a cool touch to your artwork sometimes, and it's okay to experiment with them in different art styles too ^^

[scourge]

You have a unique style. What are your creative goals? And why?

whimsical-wife responds:

thank you! I would have to say my creative goals are to make unique and fun creations, as well as provide more content to newgrounds itself. I've always had an eye out for colorful and interesting concepts, even as a child. it's fun to contribute fun and colorful things to the world, and in turn make people happy in the same way I become happy upon looking at similar creations.
as for the newgrounds thing, I just love newgrounds. it's the only website I've felt a true sense of community on and been able to make friends upon. it's great to be able to both give back to the community and meet new artists thru things like my art, the bbs and collabs and I'm always thinking up new ideas to get more involved on here!

[The New Shima]

Good art and funny expressions! Planet Dolan has some genuinely fascinating lore.

What do you think about Planet Dolan?

How did you decide to draw Shima?

AscendBat responds:

i draw puzzles for the viewers to
solve ^_^

[Blinktober Day 8: Hike]

You have sophisticated shape language. How did you develop your style?

ThePavaoProject responds:

Both out of economic character design, and the "more is less" mentality.

I'm glad you enjoy this hiker dude.

[Another Death (Bloodborne)]

The composition is fantastic, and the way you use values and lines is so well done. This is an immensely impressive piece you’ve created, and the blood is a great detail. I’m especially impressed by how controlled the line work is in defining the character. And it must have taken a lot of effort. Very impressive!

How did you learn to draw?

falsefawn responds:

AH! thank you so much, this is like the most detailed compliment I've ever received, I really appreciate it.

I'm actually completely self taught, the obsession to draw overtook me when I was like eight and I drew an entire region's worth of fake pokemon! Just over the last ~11 years doing lots of practice, art studies. Drawing has been more or less my entire life, art was pretty much all I was good at so I just ended up here now lol. Not the most interesting answer, sorry!

[Dr. Vega]

The depth and dimension are amazing!

00Alicard00 responds:

Thank you so much!!!

[Price of champions PG 60]

This has such a fresh and innovative feel. How did you get interested in doing comics?

InkeyBlue responds:

Thank you! In truth I just kinda did it I knew I wanted to make comic this year for a New Year’s resolution and my friend has this oc he has admitted he doesn’t give enough attention to and I fell in love with. As for how I got interested I just kinda always wanted to do it but my perfectionist stopped me so I just said screw it and went ignoring the mistakes I made and pressed on.
