Big-Boss's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Wayne Static]

Great speedpaint tribute, man. I was shocked when I found out that he died. I'll never forget his legendary hair and of course, Static X.

R.I.P Wayne.

NullBoss responds:

Cheers dude, gone but never forgotten!

[Kurt Cobain]

The detail here is fantastic, especially his hair. It almost looks realistic.

The shading is great, too, for the most part. The only problem with the shading is his left eye. It's just pure blackness. The shading should be much lighter, so his left eye can actually be seen.

[Kurt Cobain]

As a huge Nirvana fan, you can probably imagine that I really like and appreciate this, haha.

To me, the oil paints give this painting kind of a dark touch to it, like some of Nirvana's music. Good choice of materials.

The only thing I don't like is how you painted some of his hair. I can tell you were making some of it look blue because of the lighting, but it just didn't turn out well at all. It looks more like some of his hair is actually blue, not just the lighting.

[Golbat sure was weird]

The drawing style is pretty good and Golbat almost looks perfect. However, I'm not sure if the spots on its body and the white on its legs are supposed to be shading or what, but it doesn't look right. If that's what that stuff is supposed to be, then you did a poor job of shading. The shading on the wings look great, though.

Also, as critique and from being a Pokemon fan for a long time (haha) I know that Golbat's body is more long than round.

This is definitely a cute little drawing, but it has it's issues.

MegatonSlater responds:

thanks i was drawing it from its original sprite from red and blue so the random colors is how it looked so i put them around if i was to shade it in my own way it would of looked very different i tried to stay close to the sprites color though ha

[Choose wisely]

Very adorable drawing! As a Pokemon fan, I love this. I just wish you would've drawn Squirtle's and Charmander's eyes like how they are in the games and Anime.

The best drawn Pokemon here is Bulbasaur. You drew everything spot on, I'm impressed. Both Squirtle and Charmander need improvements on the eyes and tails. Maybe just pay a little more attention to detail next time.

MegatonSlater responds:

i tried to make them kinda different from the originals but the same if you know what i mean like my own spin on them i definitely do feel like charmanders tail though is awkward it looks awkward to me now that i look at it but i am working on something based on this and ill take take your criticism and put it into it! :)

[an undertale]

I love how you depicted the results of both the Genocide and Pacifist playthroughs in one drawing. I also really like how you did it by splitting the drawing into two.

Your drawing skill and detail is terrific. I would love to see this make frontpage.

[Venom]

Very cool and impressive Venom artwork! This has some pretty amazing detail, especially the teeth. It's also one of the most spot on Venom drawings I've seen.

A couple of issues I'd like to bring to light are that the eyes need to be more symmetrical. Also, the huge glob saliva on the bottom of his tongue looks more like ice than drool. The shape just isn't right and it's a bit too thick.

justinlack1 responds:

Thank you for your kind words, and constructive feedback, I will change that bottom saliva/ drool because I do agree with you, and I will make a few changes to the eyes, but out of personal taste I quite like the asymmetry, but I will add a little more symmetry and may update the post if/when I get around to it. Thanks again :D

[Patrick star - the drunk karate master]

Haha, funny concept! I like how you made him look muscular compared to just old, tubby Patrick. The design kind of reminds me of Bo Rai Cho from Mortal Kombat.

[SPIDER KILLER]

This is insanely cool and original! Spider Man's head being impaled on a dagger is what makes this drawing.

I can't believe all of the shading that was done. It's pretty incredible how many different shades of grey are in this drawing.

Also, the detail is breathtaking and there could not be a more perfect background.

You deserve frontpage for this.

jungmeister responds:

WOW THANX FOR INCREDIBLE COMPLIMENT. THE KINFE THING AND THE BACKGROUND JUST CAME TO MY HEAD AS I DREW IT ,BUT I GUESS SOMETIMES GOOD IDEAS JUST COMES IN AN INSTANT

[Christ's Flesh]

Very creepy and nightmarish looking, I love it! It actually kind of reminds me of a Regenerator from Resident Evil 4. What was your inspiration for this?

buriedantenna responds:

Thanks, I'm glad you like it. It was a commission piece, so really it was based on what the client was looking for. He wanted something that looked Giger inspired but had this 'Christ's Flesh' name in mind, so when I combined those two things, this is what came out.
