Aalasteir's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[blue skies]

Your result is of superb quality. I didn’t know that acrylics on cardboard could produce such rich results. I have a sense of adventure through your piece.

@drachenmagier, how did you decide to paint with acrylics on cardboard?

drachenmagier responds:

Well, the acrylics are there. The cardboard is there. It seems logical to put those together. d: Aside from that, acrylics are really versatile and you can imitate a lot of effects done mostly known from digital media. :) Or I should probably say, digital media can imitate acrylics. :D

And thank you!

[Pixel Art from 2023]

I'm incredibly impressed by the richness and depth in your pieces. Your palettes are a sight to behold—truly excellent. My favorite is the one with the castle. The blue is so powerful, and the way the mountains recede into the background perspective is great. It’s a superb composition with great detail and sophisticated shape language.

@SlowPumpkins, why do you feel the need to draw more someday? Is there a specific reason you think you aren’t drawing as much as you would like?

@SlowPumpkins, you are a very skilled artist. Were there any points where you struggled with learning art concepts? How did you eventually overcome those challenges?

SlowPumpkins responds:

thank you so much! and about the castle artwork I only give my vision since it's based on a album cover, the original painting was done by a famous metal cover artist named kristian wahlin, he is a master!

and about the questions, I don't want to overwork anymore but I always have this feeling that I didn't do enough for the day. If I didn't have to worry about money I'll probably draw more

[Landsknecht, i am]

CasperTheRamKnight responds:

Absolutely amazing shading! The way you incorporate a gif in your comic is also funny. Keeping the text the same as in the game was a good decision, and the comic is very funny.

I hope it comes with a one-year warranty!

Ralsei, do you think bacon is epic?

ICantSeeHelp responds:

[FNF vs Aalasteir]

Thank you! It's awesome that you'd like to create your art.

AnassAnimationPro responds:

No problem and yes I do like ;)

[Thanos sketch card]

Congratulations on being hired! I like how you made the characters look really menacing. You have a great ability to use strong colours that complement each other, and the way you vary the thickness of the lines gives good dimension to your work.

@RobDemersArt how did you become interested in creating art?

RobDemersArt responds:

Thanks so much! I have a bunch more cards ready to post.

My mother was a watercolor artist and I guess she instilled a love of creating art in me. From there, I took art seriously after high school and went the self-taught route. Sketch cards got my attention after seeing an artist named Katie Cook sell these mini illustrations at a convention and I got interested making my own.

[20 Rusty Years]

The rich colors, strong texture, and the stylization and energy that you present in your art is good.

@J-Bar004 how did you first discover Salad Fingers?

J-Bar004 responds:

How I discovered the top-tap lover might have been just been when it came up on my feed back in the day then fell in love with the atmosphere and writing. Thank you so much for the review btw today is the first time I got frontpaged!

[Arras]

Thank you so much! Skilled! You are awesome!

SkilledFella responds:

No problem, pal. :)

[Art Trade - Chloe]

Excellent color scheme! The way you have the abstract shapes in the background complementing Chloe is a great composition choice. I haven't heard of the art program Intuos!

@Nebulate, what is it like to use Intuos, and how did you discover it?¨

-- -- -- --
EDIT. Thank you @Nebulate now I understand, I made a mistake! Intuos - Hardware - Tablet

Nebulate responds:

Noice to know you find the coulors cool. Also Intuos is not a softwate but a tablet made by Wacom. Its a good and cheep beguinner buget tablet.

[KinitoPET]

Your Kinito has good composition, and the way you draw the gloves is nice. The background is atmospheric with the pop-ups!

Nebulate responds:

Thank you. I am quite happy about the drawing myself with the backround and pop-ups.
