Jazza's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Derived from Abstraction]

I've looked through this and some of your other pieces. It's very clear you have talent. You have a style that is VERY visible, and holds molds my attention with ease. Its refined looking, solid and full of character! I'd love to see you do some kind of scene, like a few characters interacting in some way, or something other than a concept looking art piece. Your concept art is so strong and well done it makes me hunger to see the concept come to life! Keep up the great work!

PeterNicholsonArt responds:

Wow thanks Jazza! I really appreciate the feedback! You've made my day :-)

[Tyrion]

This is a really solid attempt at digital painting! The colors haven't been mixed to a refining stage, so the picture looks somewhat unfinished, but the overall composition, colors, and character representation are very well done, so you definitely have skills. I look forward to seeing what else you can do! Keep it up

[Concept Character]

The dark picture and framing look solid, and your golden corner sparks interest quickly. The execution lacks refinement though, his form doesn't look very solid or tangible and could use work. Also his right leg seems missing? Otherwise, good job, keep up your effort!

JayKay259 responds:

I failed at making the cape look as if it was wrapping around his leg. Thank you, I appreciate it so much.

[Running From the Cleaver]

This is really well done! You should be very proud of this one, you've got a lot of character and concept art, and I see here you've given a really solid slot at creating an environment and story representation, and you've done so very effectively! I'm very fond of how well you executed the figured, the skull, the girls downward running angle, and in particular, the scythe guy. He looks very intimidating, and while not a central focus and not heavily colored or lined, he's extremely well done and impressive. Keep it up!

VincentVyce responds:

Thank you very much. I am rarely happy with my work and always looking for areas to improve, but it means alot to me that other talented artists (like yourself) find something they like about my art and there are a few pieces I can take real pride in.

Heres to many more pieces of art work and even more hours of work

[Head]

Nice! Your facial proportions could be slightly more solid, but its nothing to be worried about at all. In fact your overall framing and linework are great, the picture design is clever and clear. Keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing!

Spotsifier responds:

Thanks so much for finding time to review my work! you are a huge inspiration to me =D, I love what you are doing to promote art to the world =), your tutorials are the best! Thanks again =D.

[Fast Flash]

Great work! Your anatomy looks great, proportions are good in most placed, the bottom left leg looks a little off, and the right arm's elbow feels like its too far back, but that's me being picky, the overall piece is well done! I'd like if the contrast were higher, try retouching the picture before you upload it when you make a traditional artwork. It'll help it stand out more. Keep it up!

Josephmang responds:

Your left and right, or the left and right of the figure? =P just so I know!

[Jazza Fanart]

What references did you use? I'M WORRIED. ARE YOU OUTSIDE MY WINDOW?? Jokes man, I'm very flattered, thank you for your kind words and making this very well done picture! It brought a smile to my face, you have talent too, so you should keep holding on to that pencil and making stuff! Thanks for sharing, keep it up!

[Dota 2: Invoker]

I'm being very honest: this gets a lot of extra love from me because I'm addicted to Dota 2. I've even created an alt account specifically for practicing invoker with haha. So I can kind of relate to this picture on a personal level ;) Overall though, the linework and coloring and comedy of it are well done. I do feel like the eye area could use some work but otherwise, you've done well! Keep it up!

FlappyTheDugong responds:

Thanks so much Jazza! I agree with the eyes: I wanted to give them more of a luminescent glow, but I have difficulty doing glows and shine in general.

[Saddest moment in my life]

This is cool, the framing and position is good, the design is simple and effective. The zoomed in image is too large, you should optimize that to be easier to look at for most monitors. Also your shading linework could be more intentional looking. Otherwise, great job, keep it up!

[Tesla]

Wow this has a lot of potential! The lighting and the greyscale makes it look really spooky and well done! The line work lacks solidity though and since its so small when zoomed out it kind of gets lost. Try making at least the very edge of the characters silhouette darker and stronger. Also the background needs something in it to justify the asymmetry. All over though, great job!

Treby responds:

thanx for tips, i will be more careful next time. Thank you again and keep being awesome.
