Guidodinho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Peachy Harley]

Woah, this is seriously bad-ass! It took me 3 seconds on this page to hit the favorite button. Also, I think her hand, that's resting on the bowbow-mallet is drawn really well (also, sweet bowser hammer). I think it shows really did some serious practice on the hands. Got me a little bit jelly.

Also, the concept on it's own leaves a lot to the imagination, mostly because of the bowser-styled accesories that turned out really stylish and kewl. I can already imagine the fan fics, of peach going mental in bowsers captivity turning into a psychotic-bad-ass.

The only thing I personally don't agree with, is the expression on her face. It's drawn beautifully, don't get me wrong. And I think you can even see that the eyes are in a state of just starting to tear up, if you look closely, because of the way the bottom of the eyes look a bit shiny/bloodshot, but it could be just me looking way too deep into it XD.
With the rest of her face she really has this creepy classic-doll look, wich works really well on it's own.
Though seeing this , thinking about the whole concept, I would've loved to a mix of Harley's mischiefus/evil smile, mixed with peach's kind of pollite and friendly way of smiling.
It's not critisism though, just personall prefference. Though I'm sure it would've reduced my time by half, to hit the fave button. ';p

[Mega Magica]

Awesome that Audino gets the spot in front!
It's like, my favorite mega to use in double/tripple battles, with the roleplay+entrainment to make a big weird mess of everyone's abilities. It's like the audio engine of the most freaky ability based teams I can think of. Also called her Wintersound and sometimes use her to give the contrary ability to Hotdog (my trusty vetaran of an Arcanine). And if they survive long enough, the overheats will be glorious XD

Anyways, Audino aint getting enough props & respect & shit, for being the absolute bauws who controlls the situation. So kudos for doing it some justice. And just for making this bad-ass piece in generall.

[Qrow Branwen - RWBY Action Shot]

That comicbook perspective trick you did there, with the blade out of the frame with the transparant background worked out really sweet. Nice way of posting just a cool action-shot polished up without too much extra shit around it.

HenLP responds:

Exactly my thought-process, it eases the creation of these quick action shots. If you're like me and you struggle with simplicity, then making a character without a background just fucks with your work formula while providing volumes and shit.

[Commission - Ava_X_Yuta]

Imma see if I can give a helpfull tip on poses and stuff with a vague metaphor here.

But if you consider this like a photo, taken of both the girls walking towards the right. I think it would've been beter to wait juuuust a little bit before shooting the picture.
Meaning I think it's would've looked more appealing if her right leg were to be straight up. And the leg with the stocking, in the middle of making the step, with just the knee raised. and her foot ready to kinda kick forward, if you know what I mean.

Cuz I'd think that'd be the slightly better choice for picking a pose, like, out of a walking cycle, for a still picture.

I DONT CAAAREEEE

[Henri Halfbottom Full Body Portrait]

Love the idea and concept of this guy. Mainly cause it beats the dwarf steriotype by not being the standard bearded axe wielding powerhouse guy, but more of the sharpshooting wise guy. (the dwarves deserve some variation too).

Also, did you call him halfbottom because he can be considered as a half-assed dwarf, because of the lack of beard and axe?

DieterTheuns responds:

Yes, that's pretty much why he's named like that.

The character was a dwarf, born into noble family which had lost all of its fortune. He never accepted this reality, however, and shaved his facial hair as a fashion statement. He's a ranger due to many years of noble animal hunting. No pet though, he's not particularly fond of animals.

[another progress gif that i forgot to upload]

Quite the informative gif. I'm quite okay at making pixel art stuff, but dramatically suck at making backgrounds. But looking at this make me feel like it aint that hard, if you take the right steps to build it up, quite motivating actually.
All in all, nice shit to look at.

[i don't even know what title to put in]

My story would go like: a guy was making a drawing, the guy was drawing a guy. Was going strong, liked what he was making. He was in 'the zone' so to speak. He finished the body but couldn't quite put the cherry on the cake (cherry being a human head and cake being a body). So the guy went like: 'I aint breaking my flow for no man-head. fuck it, here a hyena-head!'.
Then the guy went on to sell stickers. And then, stickers became T-shirts, shirts became mugs, mugs became posters. And the guy became fucking rich.

So rich, he bought a village and built it up to a city. He also paid the best surgeons around the world to become the very thing that helped made him rich, a guy with a hyena-head. But little did he know, that after the surgery, he'd lose al human rights and citisenship, because of the fact that the guy had also legaly become a hyena (he did't pay the best lawyers to cover his back).
So he armed himself with a baseball bat, fighting for his live, trying not to end up in a zoo, wich he had just set on fire in the picture.

[magfest people]

If you invite those guys to a party, It's a good party. Even if they're just a bunch of chubby/pasty-ass geeks, they still look proffoundly hilarious.
Damn, I should start joining them conventions.,

[Zero Suit Samus Pinup Commission]

Could you tell me what you mean with 'traditionally'. Actually done "traditionally on paper' or taking more traditional steps of drawing and editing digitally? (not to be snide or nuthin, could've fooled me with scetchy/painty looking photoshop brushes, can't tell for sure)
Cause if it's 'paper/canvas traditional' i'd really like to know what you used to color it. And how many solid shades of blue you used on the suit. Cuz it looks about as roughly done to not make it too complicated to do, but still smooth and convincing too stay true to whatever material that suit is supposed to be.

Sabtastic responds:

It's all markers!
I used mostly copics for colour and steadtler pigment liner pens for the inks. The paper is just a thick card stock. I find smooth paper with no texture lends itself much better for blending and doesn't soak up ink quickly. Gives you time to push around pigment and blend hues together.

To answer your question, I used at least 6 different blues (including the purple looking highlights).

Thanks for the questions!

[The Bus Stop]

After having looked at your one that hit the frontpage: you should have totaly animated the raindrops XD

BryanV responds:

I actually did make an animated version of this. Dunno why I never put it on newgrounds. I put it on my tumblr
