larrynachos's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[MVP Dinner]

Wow, this is really great! What don't you like about it? The only thing I could even attempt to criticize is that the way the grease is dripping off the meat isn't doing a fantastic job of describing the motion of the meat. Is she rushing it to her face to avoid the grease dripping on her or the table, or is she holding it above her triumphantly before taking a bite? Maybe the grease could have been blurred or styled in a way that better communicates the speed and direction, but I'm not even capable of drawing stick figures so it feels mean or nitpicky for me to point something out. This is a fantastic piece with great colors!

ramalooke responds:

honestly I'm quite happy with how I drew the scene. with all modesty i think lineart was really solid on this one. I fucked up the colors and values though. image is a bit to muddy and colors are dull. this is thing i'm still trying to improve. and thank you for nice comment and your feedback, i really appreciate it! <3

[Just some heads]

Those are some pretty intense hairstyles! You've done a great job at giving them depth :D

[Cyber(She)Devil]

I like your style, keep it up!

[good boy]

I've seen this on facebook a couple times and it always hits me in my feels. Didn't know you were on Newgrounds though!

[CGI Bowl and Cloth]

Very good work! I've yet to succeed with a good looking cloth simulation :/

Bertn1991 responds:

Thank you Larry. I definitely had to watch a few tutorials on cloth physics myself. It's a little tricky ^_^'

[Hush the Puppies]

Used to get these all the time at long john silvers.

Very well done! I thought these were 3d at first!

Bertn1991 responds:

Thanks ^.^

Also, you have fine taste.

[Oney Plays: 8-bit]

Very nice, I like the staggered shading on the character!

Have you experimented with animating pixel art, for videos or maybe to use as game assets?

IrisOfTheRepliforce responds:

Thank you very much ^_^

I have before, and have been offered by friends and others to work on their projects as well, however I did not accept. I have ideas for my own MMX fan game for myself, however I do not intend to ever finish or publish it fully ^.^ Thank you for visiting my page

[a bunch of crystal objects]

These are stunning! How do you manage this level of artistry in POWERPOINT o.o

Troisnyx responds:

I'm happy to share the trade tricks if it means anyone can try it too:

1) You need a tablet plugged in BEFORE opening the program first and foremost, in order to activate the Draw function.

2) Ink colours are selected in a similar manner to Paint, RGB rather than Hue / Sat / Lum.

3) Same deal with any other software, I start with a structure, export that as PNG, copy it, reduce opacity, draw over it, remove structure, save outlines as PNG, colour layers, lasso select, save each layer as PNG, reduce opacity again, send certain layers to back, and rinse and repeat as much as needed until we get this result.

I'll admit that it's a bit of a roundabout way to do this, and there's no colour blending tool, but it works fine otherwise.
