CiviLies's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[SuperCrown - Booette]

Between the mocking laughter and sudden shift to staunch embarrassment, I believe this is what is referred to as a tsundere...?

Either way, this is wonderfully pulled off. Great job.

[Study 01]

The choice of colors here just flow so seemlessly with each other, they's beautiful. From her hair and bandanna through all her clothing and right to the drown, I love the coloring. The drawing is so simple in appearance, but her facial expression and the way her hair and clothes appear to be flowing in a breeze really adds a layer of depth to it, I think. Though how much her hair is being blown back usually indicates a stronger wind, so her clothes should have an appearance of also being caught in such a wind. Also, the angle her hand is holding her drumstick at appears a little awkward to me.

Overall I'm really proud of you for this though :D Great job!

[Train Ride in the Rain]

FAKE NEWS! I DON'T SEE ANY BLUE IN THIS PICTURE! SAD!

But really though, I like this a lot. The monotone shading and penciling really add to the somber mood Buck seems to be feeling. However, the reflection of his eye in the window seems to tell a different story. The angry look that is being reflected back at him implies that maybe he's angry at himself, and perhaps that is related to his sadness. A deep depression that is causing him to just go through the motions without ever really actively moving...much like him sitting on a moving train.

Also you're still gay. Great work, tails!

TailsPrower responds:

Wow thanks for the thoughtful review, Civi! It didn't occur to me that the reflection could be that of anger, that's an interesting spin on it now that I think about it. I did try to put meaning and symbolism with the window. Looks like there's more to it than even I had anticipated.

Also no u.

[Lost]

This is a really clever piece. Everything just blends in together so smoothly.

YakovlevArt responds:

Thanks! That was definitely what I was practicing while keeping it minimal and emotional.

[Street concept]

Npt bad, I really like the cop car. The junk is a nice touch, too.

Overall, I think you've done a great job with trying to portray a filthy, grimy atmosphere of urban scenery. Looks like a setting from some impoverished part of downtown. Could maybe use a few more details like a bit of litter and/or maybe even a security cam. But a great job nonetheless.

[Tree Tapping]

aybby id lyk 2 tap ur wood ;)))

Nice use of shading.

TailsPrower responds:

Ayyy plenty of wood to go around.

Thanks for checking out my art <3

[Sayyy]

This is hilarious.

[Birds of Prey]

This is an excellent tribute to both creatures. The monochromes, colors, shading, and lighting in this picture give them a stunningly realistic appearance. The detailing especially holds it all together, though I wish the orange on the lammergeier was slightly brighter along the top of his head, sort of like the orange along the side of his head is.

[Mermaid Tail.]

Reminds me of this one time in kindergarten i tried to draw an actual pyramid and failed miserably. So I just scribble-scrabbled.

Kiwi responds:

Are you insulting me? Did I fail miserably?
