Djoresh's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[mathilda (leon)]

Great job on the shading, I love the contrast between light and dark. This painted realistic style is one of my favorites.

(in my opinion, It's great to see you make something else then erotic girls/boys).

nitrile responds:

i don't want to be recognized as a hentai artist. i just want to be recognized as a good artist in general.

[soul breaker ch1 pg 1]

Really nice, I like the concept.
Good job on the futuristic look of a big crowded city, the outfits look great.

Just something I wondered, if the cube gets absorbed if anyone touches it, how come nobody else has absorbed it before?

Keep thinking of how the viewer reads, try to guide the viewer trough the page. I started reading with: 'As valued citizen... others want' instead of the first panel. My view was forced up to the page to drop down again. Imagine the first panel in the upper left corner, it creates a more pleasant view.

For action scenes, this set up would be really good, like if some attacker stands above the protagonist from above, for example.

Looks great, looking forward to the next one.

cziczak responds:

ofcourse - anyone can't absorb a cube. only certain people can.

and thank u for all suggests (:

[Zillah vs Absimiliard]

I like the story, I realized Molag'Bal and the creation of vampires in the Elder Scrolls looks allot like this one.

The characters look great, I especially like the bloodied scar around Absimiliard eye.
I agree with MysticTrinket. The train feels off in this picture.

How did Zillah come back to life? Since Absimiliard is already hideously deformed, it must be after she got killed.

Galejro responds:

Yes, Zillah is practically dead and fries in hell according VTM lore. This is a cover picture for my cookbook where I "add" new story based on VTM lore. The lady on the left and the proper owner of the body is not Zillah, her name is Lacene Riderguerre, in my story Caine turns her into a vampire and possesses her with a ghost that he brainwashed to think, feel, and behave like Zillah according to the fullest of Caine's knowledge of her. Technically she is like Gollum, a split personality where one soul can claim control at a time. Caine did that out of sentiment for Zillah, he never got the chance to bury her, so when he found Lacene (who looks almost like Zillah) he decided to make both a powerful servant as well as a living tombstone. So yes, you are excused if you say she's just a cheap knock-off rather than a resurrected original.

[Light study 2]

I don't often give 5 full stars, but this sure deserves them. Extremely realistic, I love that you can still see it has been drawn. Not just an exact photo like illustration (that kinda kills the point of painting it in my opinion). Well done

renevatia responds:

Yeah, having exact copies defeats the purpose

[The Siren's Prize]

Another great illustration. It's easy to come up with some stories with this drawing.

I like how you did the sunlight reflecting trough the water on the objects underwater.

gavinvalentine responds:

Thanks EmeraldPhoenix. =)

[Rimworld Fantasy Forest]

A beautiful fantasy world, I love it

BushidoArts responds:

Thank you so much! :)

[Color commission - Archangel]

Great comic style! I love the gold and blue armor. It took me a moment to figure out his front and back. It's pretty twisted

JBoston responds:

Yeah. Its a bit confusing. But I've colored this guy's lineart quite a few times. I think I've just gotten used to it.

[Dad's Home]

This drawing gave me a little smile and a warm feeling, I love it when a drawing does that. The lighting and shading looks great and I like the character design.

I am very curious to the next ones in this series and how they grow. Will they be happy, will they be fighting, will they be separated? Looking forward to them!

AlexPartridge responds:

Glad you like it. Yeah, I didn't want to go overboard on the emotional side of things, so warm and fuzzy is definitely more what I was aiming for!

I've got some ideas floating around for the next few pieces but nothing is concrete as of yet. And, as you've pointed out, some will be happy some will be sad, so do stay tuned! :)

[Bloody Techno Imp]

Doctor: ''What colour mushroom did you eat''?
me: ''About every colour''

I like this one, especially with the little challenge you put in there, challenge accepted!
I found the Mushroom, Illuminati symbol and some flower looking star, the acronym I guess is the letter M? I couldn't find anything else, so I guess that should be it.

If that's not it, please tell me what I should have been =)

coltybah responds:

Good job! Thank you for taking the time to find them, the flower is a pot leaf ;D and the acronym is DMT an extremely psychedelic drug. If there's anything you want me to draw for you PM me or whatever :)

[OaSd Background 1]

It looks good, though I believe you forgot the reflection of the water on the ocean.
The further something is from the viewer the more blurred and lighter the colours become, you do this very well, but you seem to have forgotten the horizon, it is a very sharp change from water to sky.

I like the rays of sunlight breaking trough the leaves of the trees and the clouds look really good.

Where is the light coming from though, it is confusing me a little. The rocks and some trees indicate the sun comes from the top right. But 1 tree has light coming in from the top left.

(sorry to nag about these details, I feel like a jerk. Though I hope it helps you a little in future works)

Extellus responds:

I'm not exactly striving to make it as realistic as possible although I do see your point. =) I guess I'm just looking for the best way to convey a certain feel of the atmosphere and I think that such hard realism might hinder that. =/
