Ioplop's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Impromptu]

Super fun! Makes me wanna print it and put it on one of my notebooks so I get inspired to write something or at least take some notes in class :D

HeelsforEels responds:

You can if you want, I'm fine with that!

['The-Un-Frog.gif']

I love it!
I feel like for a n00b like me, there is much to learn in this gif.
The color palettes are great. I love how each scene has its own palette, all halloween themed.
I also really like how you handle the outlines. The light outlines over dark outlines in dark backgrounds really look nice c:

Very creating piece, love it, 10/10 ^.^

Butzbo responds:

Aahh thanks for you comment! (:
I'm still testing out stuff in pixel art and the outline effects is easily among my favourite tricks so far haha

[The Legend of Quintavius | World Map]

Very nice map. I love the folded paper appearance :D
All the symbols are easy and intuitive to read. Maaaybe could use a little bit of variation on the forest trees, but on the other hand, old videogames did use tilemaps like that where every tree is the same.

Very creative and asthetic way to draw the compass rose...
North is to the right???? (Not complaining though)

What about adding a little bit of texture to the water? Like some sort of waves or something?

ImmanentDeath responds:

Yeah the snowflake points north. Snow melts further south, so that direction has a water droplet.

I'm really glad it's easy to read, I wanted it to be somewhat simplistic for that reason. Waves would've been a great idea that I just didn't think of, but I also think it's good empty space there.

[The Lunar Lighthouse]

Beautiful and inspiring. I like the way you draw the stars in this "+" shape :3
The color usage is amazing and the way everything is dark but the water and sky looks really beautiful ^.^

ImmanentDeath responds:

Thank you so much, I've been trying to perfect this kind of style with the stars and colors.

[Evening street]

Beautiful! Did you use any reference picture?
I really love everything about this one <3

In all my works I always use some kind of photography as a basis.
