Aalasteir's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Happy Pico Day]

happy pico day! yep I know it's Halloween, I like all the different colors you have

Cyberdevil responds:

With the purple maybe there's a certain Halloween flare here too at least. XD

Happy Belated Pico Day Aalasteir! Cheers!

[Qteku]

Terrific colors! Your 3D commission work for Qteku is of superb quality, and I enjoy how the background complements the character. It's not just a blank background; it adds great richness to your presentation.

@Blutonium, what is your approach to communicating with clients to understand their needs? What advice do you have for creating a good commission environment for both artists and clients?

Blutonium responds:

Hmm, I'd have to say updating them consistently is very important. It allowed me to let them know that I'm making progress and allowed for them to give input on each individual aspect of the project WHILE I was working on it which would've taken longer to fix in retrospect.

[METAL SLUG]

There is a very strong balance of darks and lights. I wish that the Metal Slug text was curved to the side at a 3D angle, as that would make it look more dynamic. Additionally, I think the screen could be a bit wider because the tank feels almost claustrophobic in the scene and doesn't have enough space to breathe.

Perhaps it would be better if the tank were moved more to the middle because I feel that the negative space between the foreground and background creates a sharp edge on the side, which contrasts poorly with the roundness of the tank.

Additionally, the clear distinction between the background and foreground is also a strong suit of the piece.

@ENGINEER24, you are incredibly skilled, and your ability to create very vivid textures is impressive. You have an amazing technique when it comes to shading and lighting. What is your educational background?

@ENGINEER24, how did you become so passionate about art? You have very well-established habits for creating it, and your skill is very impressive.

ENGINEER24 responds:

First of all, I apologize for the awkward English because I used a translator.

#1 - I learned on my own until I got basic training several month a few years ago. I mainly practiced by drawing from movies or photos or observing factories, machine near my residence.

#2 - Because I enjoy drawing:)
And also I always have a desire to draw better than I do now.


Thank you for your question and have a nice day! ;)

[O.C.tober Entry Day 21: Aiko Mori]

Excellent design, the way you've done the clothing is really good.

KyleKirenn17 responds:

Awww thank you! I could have done a little better though. I may have done screwed up on some parts. But again, glad you love the design!

Great colors and shapes.

Thank you! :D

[on a quest]

I like how clean and sharp the lines are; the line work and shading are very nice and consistent, complementing each other well.

ShnozGoblins responds:

I'm pretty happy with the result myself. I wanted to try something new and I think this style will stay :)

[Super Shoga]

Very clear foreground, middleground and background.

BioBeetle responds:

thank you! I honestly spend a really long time adjusting my line-weights for this reason! so it's a big compliment!

[Deourple your Ourple.]
