jthrash's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[dr andonuts and saturn stack]

The claymation-inspired character designs combined with the photorealistic backgrounds remind me of the Japanese Pikmin 2 commercial.

vxcl responds:

thank u ! i love those commercials and all the promo art made for pikmin !

gatekid3 responds:

Exactly

[🔮Bridal Hex Maniac🔮]

The more I see the Hex Maniac, Hilda, or Nessa in particular, the more I realize I "quit" the Pokémon games too early. There were no characters like this in Pokémon Gold!

rtil responds:

the fanart is far more generous to hex maniac tits than the game just fyi

[Those Fan Arts]

I would NEVER feel comfortable drawing NSFW art of anyone real or even their OCs. Nonetheless, considering how tempting it would be to partake in the “second-oldest profession” and draw porn for quick and easy money (as opposed to actually “git gud” at drawing SFW things to get a more traditional artist’s job—made harder by fake-woke algorithms in the likes of Twitter and DeviantArt drowning out your pleasant drawings with obese anime girls, anyway) reminders like this are very welcome.

illwillpress responds:

I have nothing against lewds, lewd fan art or anything. I'm no prude, and my older stuff is all sorts of NSFW, but some artists just delve into some... dark crap... so.... that's kinda the thing here. A lot of lewd artists have an incredible amount of talent, and should make money off their work. Just worry about the ones that take those "questionable" commissions that even Newgrounds wouldn't want on their platform. :(

[Hurry Up!]

This is an unusually detailed piece from you and you couldn’t have picked a better character for this style. Very good, gave me a good chortle.

Chalecus responds:

Thank you so much! Since I've been drawing him for years, it has become a comfort character to experiment styles and details with.

[the great chili dog massacre]

But that’s a mustard dog…

DummyPhantom responds:

le sigh i know i'm sorry

[Commission-Goblin-Bright and early]

I would name her…uhhh…Goblina…? Maybe take someone else’s name idea, I got nothin’.

FuShark responds:

That's a really good one. Not on the nose at all. Brilliant.

Nah but she's not mind to name. She belongs to the client.

[Off-Duty]

Gorgeous, but the camera dust effect is a bit distracting. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel these post-processing effects are only necessary when deliberately emulating old, cheap video cameras or Kodak cameras. Most expensive cameras these days try their best to avoid even having minor film grain, let alone vignettes, bloom, motion blur, etc.

CuteNikeChan responds:

thanks for the feedback! i'll be sure to keep this in mind! <3

[Modem Art]

What is it about lighting in Cinema 4D specifically that looks SO GOOD for simple, stylized art??

devilsgarage responds:

Good point and you got a good eye for details. I had spent more time lighting this simple model than actually modeling this art. Texturing it to get that sheen was another tricky element.
If you play around with other applications like blenders you should try their rendering engine ‘Cycles’, it’s as powerful as V-Ray 5 + C4D

[billy and mandy x metal slug]

Is the lady cosplaying as Fio actually from Evil Con Carne?

iWander responds:

yep!
