Otto's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Surreal Beauty]

Try challenging yourself and using just the hard, round brush when painting. It'll make you think properly about creating shapes. For instance the shading on her face and elbows is very very lazy and it shows I'm afraid. She'll definitely fall over soon - imagine this was actually real, it wouldn't work. That's the best way to achieve good painting, is to make it believable!

It's hard to say if you're improving at all though

KiwiSundae responds:

I mostly JUST use the hard round brush. However, I also blend my colors with the smudge tool. Anyway, I will try to work on my shading as well. Thank you for your feedback!

Tubby funland was the first bit of Newgrounds I ever found, all of 6 years ago now. God damn I was too young for the internet.

deathink responds:

Like a pedo, newgrounds is known for touching kids in special places.

Stick to your guns.

Stick to how you've done this, don't let these fanboys tell you how to paint. Brilliant use of water colours, worthy of a definate 9, at least. What you've done here sets an atmosphere and needs no background or 'glowing Navi' to 'fix' that.

thanks otto you're the man!

Good anatomy.

Good anatomy, and if you just worked on that toning, shading etc. you could get this over a 3.40 that it's in right now, but now as it is, it's really nice. A new touch on a classic character.

dommi-fresh responds:

i wanted to keep it bold like the classics for once
