Jazza's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pokémon Collage]

Great work! Well composed and colored, I can tell you put a lot of effort into making this as good as you can, which is awesome. The background is completely sparse though, and not in a way that compliments the piece, there are ways to have minimal backgrounds without having a basic texture that makes it lose depth. Overall you've done really well though, good work, keep it up!

[Mechanical Expression]

Nice work, I like your shading and your willingness to try new things and challenge yourself. The piece is interesting and well composed, with clear solidity. Some of the shading feels a little cloudy, but that aside you've done very well as always, keep it up!

[the shield]

Nice design visually, and the colors work well together and are solid. The technique is not very refined, and though it seems the style you're going for is more sketchy/concept based, there is a difficult line to balance between that, and sloppy. Keep working on it though, I like the silver-metallic area and how it reminds me of a skull. Good job!

[Caveman]

For your first digital painting you should be VERY proud, great work! Very clean and rich use of colors, good drawing itself too, solid character design and proportions, everything is clean and solid. Very good. Keep up the great work!

[Just a girl]

Not bad, you're off to a good start! The background color is a bad pick though since it appears too flat with the brown of her hair, which isn't shaded in an extreme way to separate it from the brown of the background. Otherwise this is fairly good, decent brushwork on the skin and the eyes are especially good. Keep up the good work!

[Hope and Chester]

Not bad for your first digital painting! Decent image composition, cute character design. The painting is a bit soft and unrefined but that's to be expected when trying a new medium so don't worry, just give it time and practice! Keep up the good work :)

[Windrunner!]

Windrunner? Very nice, your colors work well and the image has a strong well framed composition. The linework, though you were going for a sketchy feel, seems a little too unrefined and more sporadic than you may have intended. That aside, the form and pose are simple and strong, colors work well, and the image overall is nice to look at! Good job, keep it up :)

[Last Man Standing]

A fair effort! The atmosphere established is good, nice and dark, and your image compsition and framing is really great. Your characters could improve their figures since the proportions are somewhat unbalances, and the shading could be cleaner, but overall you've created a nice rich piece here so keep up the great work!

Snakebreath responds:

Thanks! With summer beginning I've made my schedule include at least an hour of figure drawing everyday, hopefully I'll improve my figures :D

[That's Bubu!]

Good effort, the character has a fun style to him, though lacks solidity and strong form, though that will develop and improve with time and practice, so keep it up!

[Origins.]

Nice work, a clever and well executed mixing of styles. Your linework could use some work, but your use of color and shading, though simple, works very well. Also the piece is visually interesting and unique. Great work! Keep it up :)
