NeoD-ray's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Fanart: Meme Gear Rising Repentance]

Wait, what tf is the one in the bottom left corner?

EDIT: Oooh...
Sorry, but when I think about the Metal Gear RAY I think about MGS2, not MGRR. That's probably why my superior brain couldn't assign the big "Rules of Nature" robot in this specific semantic field.

WVDB responds:

Metal Gear RAY. Considering your name you probably should know about it.

[Screw the mortals!]

Raktineous used to kill humans who prayed him, which is... reasonable(?).
But why would Ganesh be so hostile against humans now, what did they do?

WVDB responds:

Beats me. Maybe they did nothing at all and Ganesh simply lost his patience.

[Christmas with the Rayzer!]

A Biggo Smokko hanno palesemente regalato un panino fatto con una baguette.

EDIT: Il mio intelletto è raffinato, la mia esperienza ancora di più.

NicoNarra responds:

Come fai a saperlo?!

[Icon 2022]

Comrade, you lost yer nose.
In 2023 you'll lose your ears. And in 2024 you'll look like me.

MrShmoods responds:

You make a good point. I think it's time we abolish noses.

[The Cesspit [EP.7] "The Blue-ish Blur"]

Pros

- Wendoe explained NFT ""art"" better than 87.3% of the population of the Internet. I'm very thankful, I was too uninterested for looking it up by myself
- MetalSonic655's insight on the Sonic Fandom was interesting, as I never dug too much into it

Cons

- I know it's a podcast, but I can't get over the fact that I don't see Wendoe doing stupid shit in an actual drawing
- Wendoe mentioned anime, preventing me from eating for the next two hours

EDIT: Yeah I had my doubts on the fact that Wendoe actually did these. The speech is way more professional and... consistent.

WVDB responds:

Wendoe ain't the one doing these. He's on a... time-out.

[MAKE-UP]

Is like watching a car crash, comrade.
It's terrible, but you can't stop looking.

WVDB responds:

"Newspapers, getcher newspapers! D-Ray gets cancelled for hating the queer, read all about it!"

[Gunko Corps. (feat. ’Sona Strikers!’)]

Should we spam these things until we either get banned or paid?

As the kids these days say: "We do a little bit of trolling."

[Brothers King]

I rarely review things on the frontpage, but this one is a nice piece.
On the tecnique used, I gotta say that there is basically almost nothing that bothers me, except those little triangles plates on their shoulder. The one in shadow looks bigger than the other one in light, in both poses. The colors are greatly balanced, but I would make the cyan of the "crown" less bright (just a little), but even like this is great.

On the creativity used, I gotta say you nailed it. I mean, esthetically it doesn't seem something special, but the concept behind it (brothers and heir) is awesome!
I would have liked it even more if you gave them something that express more this idea, because at first look it just looks like a three headed undead. Giving them some emotions would be great, but I guess is not easy when you are using a skeleton.

By the way, it is a very very nice drawing, and for once I'm happy of what I found in the frontpage.
Outstanding!

jouste responds:

really appreciate the thorough comment and review.
I'm happy you enjoyed it so much. I'll try and keep it all up!

[Armstrong]

Curious way to draw it, but let's dig better into this:

On the tecnique used, I think that everything looks fine, more than average for sure. The color's are very well balanced even tho the blue of Armstrong (I used this as a placeholder name for him/her) seems conflicting with the rest of the colors (but really slightly) even tho I guess it was a way to underline better the character in the drawing, in this case is fine.
Another thing is are some drums, which look abit too sketched (the first three), I mean they don't look geometrically correct.

On the crativity used, I gotta say that the design of Armstrong is low average. The high number of eyes looks random to me and abit mediocre alongside the fact that is supposed to be a drummer. Nothing special if you ask me, except that weird but interesting crest of hair that he/she has.

In the end I think that is an "ok" drawing, very simple in style and colour.
The only thing particular is the way you coloured it, with acrylics, something uncommon here.
Hope the review didn't bother you, and if you want more informations, or want to correct me, please do not esistate and write me a private message.

Not bad.

GrimJimmy responds:

Yeah, I won't lie, I really rushed this one compared to the last three. Thanks!

[Mamma's little baby got busted]

On the tecnique you use I have very little to say, since it's really well made; maybe I would have prefered abit more of shading on some parts.
Just pay attention at his legs; they don't seem well proportioned with the rest of the body, and their position doesn't match the pose. But it's really light and hard to spot.

On the creative side, I would say that you did a great character. The headpiece that he has, adding the two horns coming out, is an fairly original touch.
I would just suggest you to remove the skull on his left shoulder since there is already one on his belt and it's abit out of context compared to the other shoulder.
This could make the character look less "pushed" and more balanced (but this is your choice, mine is just a suggestion).
Also, the thing on his right shoulder looks damn cool and interesting, but what is it? Is it a weapon? Or just a piece of armor? If you can, explain it to me.

In the end I also liked the little information task you added. Not too much informations, and the one you added are good enough to make him look interesting. I just don't get why he is a guitarist tho. It's like seeing a future lawyer becoming a farmer... meh!

In the end, this is a great piece of original character!
Nice freaking job.

EmpireZombie responds:

Yeah I am not doing any of that, all that sounds super bordering. This for a thing am I doing later on. Don't over think this dumb drawing I did.
