VikingWalker's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shani]

Woah, I think this looks unlike anything you have ever made! Your level in photoshop drawing has rocketed since the last art using that (you probably spent more time on this, but still :3 )! Great shading, pallette and blending(?)!
I have not met this character myself yet, but I look forward to it now! (no spoilers ;P )

NyanaCreation responds:

aahww thank you. it took a bit more time because of the coloring but i really enjoyed making this myself. i am glad i have improved so much it does wonders going to art classes.
also mabey you'll find the character in the witcher i hope so she is pretty cool ^^

[Floating in Space]

Really cool piece! ^_^
The space background looks awesome, like it's inside a nebula! (google it for some amazing pictures :D) The body is shaped well, with convincing human anatomy, but with enough uniqueness to see it as alien :) The segmented discs and string around the body is interesting as well ^_^ I have no constructive criticism to give :P

NyanaCreation responds:

aahw your so sweet thank you. this is honeslty one of the things i am really proud of to be honest. especially because i was figuring out the space background and it turned out good. thanks for all the positivity it brightens my mood alot right now and i needed that.

[3D model potion bottle]

Hm. It kinda does look like a spaceship ray gun ;P (even though it's a potion bottle)
But, it would work as a bottle as well, though easy to knock over due to the slim bottom ^_^
Definitely luxurious!
(question: what are the "arms" on the side of the bottle?)

NyanaCreation responds:

haha it could work like that but nah XD it's a potion bottle. and they kinda had to be attached to the bottle at first but didn't work out haha XD but thanks for the compliment.

[First pixel art]

Oooh, this type of art was unexpected from you, Nyana! ^_^
A welcome surprise :) (is that an Oreo on their head? xD )
I like the gradient hair color you managed to get.
I would like a simplistic face on them, though :)

A tips from me would be to use the height of the area fully, as there is still space left above their head, so starting higher would allow for them to have a bit longer body (shoes, perhaps?), as the character looks a bit short now.

NyanaCreation responds:

haha yah never thought i would do pixel art but you know here i go. but yha it's kind of a candy themed person. i am not so pink and pastel kind of person but it was the only idea i had that i got from one of my friends in class who was playing with photoshop.

anyway i only had 64 by 64 pixels and i wanted to make the character smaal and cute thats why she isn't longer as well as i didn't want to give her feet or a face because one she is wearing a dress and usually you don't see the feet and two i didn't feel like giving her a face XD but thanks for the feedback mabey in my future work some will get a face.

[Escape Room]

Oh! This is really cool! Was making miniature furniture and props out of paper challenging?
What was the most difficult in the whole process? (I really like the couch and suitcase btw)
How large is the set in diameter? Did you only use A4 sheets, or cardboard as well?
I would love it if this was colored sometime ^_^

(And "Ascape", as in getting out, is written with an E - "Escape" ;)

NyanaCreation responds:

i made the smallest things like the book but yah it was chalanging because it is a pain in the ass to hold it still. had to redo it twice XD same paper but still. and the most difficult part was nothing really. i kinda asked/pointed things and tasks towards people in what they where best at but because i am good with my hands most of the stuff is easy. and no caboard and A4 thats what we used. all the cardboard walls except for 2 i cut myself. aand i am not going to color it in just saying :p

(sorry lenguage is still not the greatest :p )

[First Drawing with Alchohol Markers.]

For a first attempt, this is amazing! :3
Good job on the eyes, again :P (like how you hide the edges with hair, but still allow the eyes to show through) The skin color you used looks well :)

Hey, I don''t think it sounds weird to "give new life to drawings", I think it sounds logical; I totally get what you mean... I would do the same if I were in your shoes ;3
I really look forward to the alco-pen drawing(s) you will post next ^^

NyanaCreation responds:

the eyes where not something i was proud of because there is no debt but i want to work on that. but for the first attempt i thought also wow and was so excitted. and the skin turned out so amezing i was so happy with that. and thanks mabey i'll make some more colorfull drawings in the future ;)

[Silent Mind]

Great job on this!
Lots of great little details! (even on the ears! ^^) I really like the eyes.
This is definitely a style you can draw more of, as it looks really good! :D

NyanaCreation responds:

yah i love this drawing alot and i am planning to do more but i have to have a good drawing day to do that but i will try to make more art like this ^^ but thank you.

[Subnautica fan drawing <3]

Cool, detailed drawing. Good grasp of perspective :)
The logo, and... thing... below looks really awesome ^^

NyanaCreation responds:

Thank you ^_^ i love this drawing especially because i had a super bad drawing day before. it's a leviathan btw :p it are some creators from the game. glad you like it though

[Trouble Maker]

Hmm, this seems familiar to me ;)
This drawing is really, really good! ^^
The technique in separate part of the face is excellent, the hair, the eyes, even the mouth with the adorable little fang ^^ ...the shading is great! Finger-rubbing or eraser?

When I look at this, I see all the patience, practicing, and skill combined to make this, and I <3 the result! :D
(what's the story about the nose bandage?
I've seen some sporty manga/animé characters wear them ;) )

NyanaCreation responds:

I am not sure what you see that is formiliar but that is great ^_^ i am so happy someone sees i used different techinques for the drawing as well. (and yah the fang is adorable :D ) and i used for the shading just pen and than wiped it with my finger to get is more smuchy. first put stripes down and than just wiped over it ^_^ and i am so happy you see the work i put into this it took me a little while and than had to figure out how to draw it :D (that makes my day)

and the story for her basecally is: she is energetic and gets in trouble for that. she usually tries to do the right thing and it comes from a sweet heart but somethimes she shows it the wrong way or people see it the wrong way. that is the reason she is a trouble maker as well as she is kinda clumpsy :p so that is the bandage (just like me XD )

[UNDERTHESURFACE Eviction Day.]

Heh ^^
Nice joke!
(after a while, however, this made me think about premature birth. Probably not your intention. Or?)
(And the only "real famous baby" I can think of is the baby from Nirvana's album "Nevermind" ;) )

To evaluate technically:
I like the varied colour palette, as well as the subtle shading :)
The fact that you chose to include the expanded navel is a good thing, shows an honesty and will to portray things as they truly are, and not a "romanticized" version of it.
Using the umbilical cord as censoring was clever.

Things to criticize:
A little more detailed background, and well as some more details in it would have improved the picture. I know you're capable (Haji 01 and 02), so is the simplicity here because of the timeframe, event rules, or just that you could not be bothered? :P

Lexi-doodles responds:

Hey thanks for the comment.
It was more meant to be, due date = eviction day. Plus all the days after the due date where the mother just want the baby out already. Haha.
And thank you, I had a feeling it was nirvana but I uploaded this before leaving the house so I didn't have to to re look it up. I'll change the info as soon as I get the chance :)
And thank you, I knew I had to cover the baby up in some way and I thought using the cord was a cheeky way to do so :)
I know it is pretty simplified, the timeframe has a lot to do with it, most of the other work I've done, I was still living at home with no job and on break from uni. Now it's the complete opposite and I'm finding it hard to do all the 'adult' things as well as putting a lot of time into my artwork. Hopeful over the next few cotm's I find a good balance.
