Monster8maker's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lovely Daughters]

looks great. I think Mud and your favorite look particularly good.
I think after the update the drawings of the homunculi are a bit more three-dimensional and animated. (It seems that way to me).

my favorite homunculi are the Jiangshi, Flame and tree.
But I can't play this often because I don't always want to sacrifice my favorites:(

Guileness responds:

For real. It hurts my soul to do so 😔

But I agree. The redesigns do make them more lively and dynamic. The fix in the lighting seemed to have done the trick. I especially loved how Flame turned out!

[The ghost knights]

The little girl has the typical necromancer appearance. All that's missing is the line: 'Here are my undead servants! And what do you do now?'

Then the appearance would be perfect.

EmperorBismark responds:

I never thought about it, but I suppose she is technically a necromancer. I have cleared space in my inbox. I apologize for the earlier inconvenience.

[Horror Clown Miku]

I counter that with my demonic (hungry) Miku.

Jokes aside, I find the choice interesting and the design looks great

Hailenvy responds:

Heeheehee Thank you

[I'm Fine Now]

I think it looks great, I find the style interesting and that makes me a little jealous. If I were able to draw so expressively, it would be really great for my literary projects. It would also be really nice for dark/spooky stories

and I have questions. How do you manage to keep the paper from rippling and which brushes do you use? Do you dilute the paint with water or is it just pure acrylic? What was your inspiration?

AntonM responds:

Thanks :))

The paper is cold press, 300gsm so it's pretty thick and only really curls up around the corners.

I use winsor & newton foundation acrylic brushes.

Yeah I use the acrylics more like watercolour paints, the first few layers are very thin and watered-down and I slowly thicken it up as I go along.

For inspiration I don't know, I think there's a bit of Silent Hill 4 in this one and I've been watching a few of nana825763's streams on youtube where he's making a game with this kind of otherworld. These paintings come from a stream of consciousness start and I figure out the story as I work out more of the details so it's hard to say where these ideas really come from. I read, watch movies, play games and listen to a lot of music and it all funnels down into a piece.

[Shantae in dancer garb]

looks great. interesting idea.

EmperorBismark responds:

Thank you. My apologies, I shall amend that.

[Maki]

That's interesting. I don't know the persona (not really) but I see that they also use Krita. Do you use Krita often or is it just for in-between times?

Lost-Psyren responds:

I'm switching from CSP to Krita as my main program. This pic was made only in Krita.
What other person are you talking about?

[Landsknecht, i am]

looks good. I like the sword. that's a mountain of flames, isn't it?

CasperTheRamKnight responds:

perhapz

[Balrog v Gandalf]

You cannot past!....... Sorry, I couldn't resist. The picture is really well painted.
s this drawn with watercolor paint? Or did you use a different technique? Is it drawn digitally or traditionally?

VanthArtworks responds:

I initially used oil, and then edited it digitally.

[warlocks when caught stealing]

the warlock was not successful. Now he is bat food..... could be worse... it could rain.

It could also be that I misunderstood and the guard got punched in the nose by the warlock and then bitten by the bat lady (after he woke up).

the gemstone is very beautifully drawn... then I would also take it

mahogare responds:

yeh the first girl is warlock. now that you say that i can’t unsee her as a mighty guard of gemstone lol

[please read!]

I'm not sure, but maybe it will help if you find a niche that you feel comfortable in (art, technical). I'm sure you have something that you like or that you're a fan of. You have talent. Do you have a game or a series that you like?

PLANTZIFY responds:

hello, i do have multiple games and seriesesses that i like, also thank you for noticing my "talent
" lol. i appreciate every ounce of your support and ty for commenting :D

(sorry for such a late reply)
