Actionsquid's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Floating Stairs]

I likes!

I've always loved paranormal sorts of places, an the mood you set here works really well. Great work!

[Smoke2]

Not bad

But you're missing the lighter skin tones (peach), and the wall is green... Otherwise you did a really good job. Perhaps you could make those adjustments for a better appearence?

Sangasan responds:

Yeah I fixed the background, but I'm not gonna overhaul the whole picture blue... I checked yours and yes, you have a 65% blue kaalik while mine is 100% purple

[Ching Chongin]

Who's that pokemon?

It's Pikachu!
Pikachu: "Pika pika!"

Great fan art! depth control is better than most peoples.

TheShadling responds:

Thanks man, I didnt spend much time on it so dont expect anything to be correct :D

[Blanka]

Probably your best so far.

I don't know Blanka, so I don't know how accurate this is, or if it was traced (not that I'm accusing you of anything). At any rate it looks good.

bigjonny13 responds:

Lol, well, it was done using a reference. Was just trying out some quick sketches during the summer.

[Isometric Pixel Gaming Room]

Not bad

For it's goal, you made it pretty well. One thing I notice is that the lettering in the poster is off. The letters should remain straight up and down with their vertical lines, but the horizontal lines should slant. The antenna seems a bit funny, too. The last of my criticism goes to the outlet. Doesn't the plug for the TV go in that empty socket? At any rate, I think you did well.

bigjonny13 responds:

Yeah, I know the letters are off, but at that point I couldn't handle spending any more hours in MS paint creating it. I know that's not a great excuse, but it's the best I have.
Yeah, the antenna seem a bit off to me as well.
As for the outlet, I wanted to leave an open socket just for the look. Maybe the TV is plugged into an outlet on it's left which we just can't see.

[Mortal Kombat Pumpkin]

You definitely have skill as a pumpkin carver

Nuff said

bigjonny13 responds:

Sounds good.

[Alien Collage]

This I like

Perhaps if it was n more of a composition, rather than a list, I'd like it more, but I doubt that was your intent.

bigjonny13 responds:

Yeah, probably. Again, it's just a collage of the characters I made using a pre-made template from the colour-an-alien thread.

[Doubles 6 Comic]

I'm not really sure what to say...

I guess I'd find it funnier if I knew what it was, where the reference comes from.

bigjonny13 responds:

It was created with response to the whole Twilight obsession that's occurred.

[Bullet Bill]

Interesting

The only thing I would change is to add more than just the cigar, perhaps a tattoo or a hat. I like the shading and how conforms to the overall 'lumpy' appearance. The only error is that the junction between the main body and the rear is not shaded lie the rest.

bigjonny13 responds:

I was debating adding a tattoo on his arm. I decided not to add one just because of the time constraint for the collab. I referenced an actual bullet bill for the shading, and the reason why the junction is shaded darker is due to it being smaller in diameter than the body, thus getting shadowed by it.

[Quarter Face Goblin]

Let's see...

It LOOKS like MS Paint, but the fire effect says otherwise. For a slightly nicer composition, I would move the house off the horizon line, use deeper colors, and throw some dimensional recognition, either through form or value, though preferably both.

bigjonny13 responds:

It was done in photoshop, but yeah, I know what you mean. It was created a few months ago, so hopefully I've improved since then.
