J-Bar004's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Cree (1-7pg)]

Monty Python reference!
-Also, good art btw. Love the linework! :D

[wolf and her lamb]

Love the use of colour, the shading and the streaky effect. I hope you have a great day and that you keep positive :D

[Afro of Death]

That is such a fascinating concept! I love the shapes you use and your style gives me PsychoNaughts meets Gorillaz vibe.

Also just out of curiosity, could you give me some advice on colouring digital pieces?
And what are your inspiration(s)?

Bundeluxe responds:

Thanks, and those inspirations you listed (Psychonauts and Gorillaz) are already pretty accurate, I guess I'd add One Piece to that list.

As for advice, I'm pretty bad at giving any lol. But I'd recommend looking up a good color palette that really appeals to you, and try to analyze it and figure out how and why it works so well. Back in the day when I was doing a lot more pixel art, I found this one:

And from there, I was kinda able to slowly figure out what I liked to see, and how to make it myself.

For the actual technical skills, that just comes with time as you grow more and more accustomed to your software of choice (I use FireAlpaca) and learn all of its little tricks and features. I hope this helps a little bit

[shrek, stitch and macqueen bank heist]

So, lightning Mcqueen is alive and is a car endowed with sentience. Would that mean he's the get-away driver or does Shrek need to hire someone still even when the car is alive?

Btw, Great art love the expressions and shapes used and have a great Christmas!

[What's his name?]

I believe his name is... Ooh that's a hard guess but I think it's Ben.

P.S Your art is fantastic! :D

[MADNESS DAY 2022]

MadStars The Anime.

This is a fantastic piece of work you've made! Honestly I love the various angles and unique appeal to each character. The colours are well contrasted although I prefer to see Tricky a slightly brighter green but I'm ok with how he looks here.
The use of foreshortening is really effective!

Overall, You should be proud of what you've made and you should always be proud of your work even if they have their faults. Take care and Happy Madness Day!

[Go Alien Hominid!]

Wow! This is very eye catching! It's so bright and colourful and I love your composition, wish I knew how to do that lol.

The poses very dynamic and cartoony. Also, the use of foreshortening is incredible. And the expressions are very true to the style of Dan Paladin.

Overall, you have made a brilliant piece and I love your style and can't wait to see more of your work, have an awesome day! :D

BonumRex responds:

Goddamn thank you! You made my day 💚

[Decades]

Just saw this on the Alien Hominid Art Collab and I think you have an amazing job! The shading is beautiful and the shooting star was a nice touch. Keep doing what you're doing and hope you have an awesome day :D

[KADAVER]

Absolutely Breath-Taking!! The design is powerful and has a striking silhouette. It reminds me of both Mystery Skulls and the face gives me Sam and Max vibes which was a very nice touch. The colour palette is vibrant and is very fitting with this character.

Also, the animation was spot on! The way you use the angels were fun and dynamic. And the cherry on top was the gesture at the end, I love how it conveys the character's attitude without making any facial expression which is brilliant!

You are very talented and you have done a fantastic job on bringing this character to life. I really love your art style and I hope you keep making more of these beautiful creations! :D

jumpbreak96 responds:

thanks for the substantial review. he will be free later this is just the first part of the design.
cant fight physically with the corpse trapped inside so he needs to throw around the coffin with the ghostly hands to actually attack

The colour really pops out. I love the simplicity of the palette. The shapes of the rock are abstract and character's posture is striking and has a interesting expression.
You have done a great job! I hope you have great day. :)
