Jazza's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Samus Aran]

For a beginner you're doing really well, keep doing what you're doing and keep yourself motivated and you'll see improvement comes quite quickly! The background you've got here is simple, but appropriate, and much better than excluding a background all together like many other pieces I see seem to do. It's clear to me that you really challenged yourself with this piece, you're trying various advanced techniques which are really hard to get right, and while some areas aren't perfect, the ambition and care taken bring it to a level of which you should be proud. Overall, great work, great colors and image balance, overall, very impressive, keep it up and thanks for sharing :)

Thanks a whole lot (: Nice to hear positive feedback from someone who is so artistically talented. I always have trouble keeping myself motivated and getting ideas so I always seem to slack off and lose my edge.

VERY impressive! Not only is the composition of this piece appropriate, it's also stunningly clever and well thought out! The eye is led exactly as you want it to be, and visual interest is strong throughout, with a good balance of perspective and detail. the painting style is somewhat cloudy and lacking in solidity but that aside the overall balance of the image is great, keep it up and tanks for sharing :)

RimKeLLo responds:

Thanks you for critique. I really appreciate it.

[The Card Wizard]

For a beginner you're doing really well, keep doing what you're doing and keep yourself motivated and you'll see improvement comes quite quickly! Keep up your effort, your composition is clever and fairly well executed, though I'd recommend working with a slightly more pink tone with skin. That aside, great work, thanks for sharing :)

SergeantLarge responds:

Thank you so much for your feedback, Jazza! Please forgive me, it has been a busy few weeks. I appreciate your taking time to look at these works and promoting the up-and-comers.

[Gandalf The Grey :)]

VERY impressive. Not only is the composition of this piece appropriate, it's also stunningly clever and well thought out! The eye is led exactly as you want it to be, and visual interest is strong throughout, with a good balance of perspective and detail. Your shading style is clean and very well done, overall, astounding work, keep it up and thanks for sharing :)

Iceey23 responds:

Thank you so much :D
I wish you would commented on the beard, because I don't like it for some reason :D

[River Valley]

Your understanding of how to portray an environment, along with a solid aesthetic, is just astounding! I've added you to my favorites, you've got some great skill. Your painting quality/style is really great, smooth and visually appealing. You have a good grasp of your technique and know how to make your work stand out with it. Thanks for sharing your work with me, keep it up!

SkyrisDesign responds:

Wow this is such a great motivation boost! Thanks for the fav! I will surely be posting more. I will not disappoint

[Ghost Rider]

First digital illustration? What ambition! It's clear to me that you really challenged yourself with this piece, you're trying various advanced techniques which are really hard to get right, and while some areas aren't perfect, the ambition and care taken bring it to a level of which you should be proud. Overall there's plenty of room for improvement but your leap into the artwork is great, I love your use of foreshortening and composition. great job, thanks for sharing, keep it up!

[Captain Marvel / Shazam]

A simplistic piece, really well executed and slick. I love the blocky style, reminiscent of samurai jack to me, well pulled off! I like your linework and overall you should be very happy with the result here! Keep up the great work

kian-newgrounds responds:

Hey,thanks,it means a lot coming from you who I admire and learn from...I'll keep practicing

[My first digital work]

For a beginner you're doing really well, keep doing what you're doing and keep yourself motivated and you'll see improvement comes quite quickly! For a first painting you should be very proud. There is however a significant lack of use of the space within this image, and areas of the painting are a bit cloudy. That aside what a great start! Keep it up and thanks for sharing :)

M-app responds:

Thank you very much for your input! By watching all your you tube videos i know you have a lot of things going on, so it´s really awesome that you take time to review my work and give some good advice. Thank you!

[Turning Japanese]

This is a lovely piece with soft coloring, I suspect it's a traditional artwork, and if it is, I applaud both your amazing coloring work and astounding optimization and presentation. If it's digital, then you've somehow pulled off a really great medium style here and it's fantastic. There is a lack of environment, but in the case of this image it doesn't remove any of the visual interest or appeal. This piece is decent, it effectively conveys what you are trying to go for, so good work. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!

LovelyKouga responds:

Awww thanks so much! It's fully traditional (I said 'markers' in the artist comments)

[Fatty Windrunner]

The image tone is nice, though overall a bit simple and unambitious. Your image could be improved with more work on the environment, there isn't much happening here to compliment the piece. You might not need to add too much, but something simple to help balance the colors and lighting would significantly compliment your piece. The color balance works well and the character design is cute, also you do get extra points for it being Dota related. Thanks for sharing, keep it up!
