Are you hungry?

This really turned out well, reminds me of the work of Francis Bacon, especially his so called "joker" piece...

If you ever get the chance you should check out the film Jacob's Ladder, the creatures in that film were directly inspired by Bacon's work, specifically his "meat" series of oil paintings.

Anyway a deduction of points because it could be slightly more refined, and the effect was achieved using the magic of photoshop.

Fuck I'm hungry now...

You're making me hungry and I have no food, quit it.
It was actually a VERY hard choice to use a photoshop effect or just keep the regular version since they both turned out to be neat doodles. I mostly used this for an illustrations for the poem on another site but hell.

I'm going to be studying some of Bacon's work more later this year so I'll definitely stumble on that piece. Thanks for the drawing tip. Now hopefully I have a few bucks for lunch....

People and their shitty reviews...

I like this, you did a fantastic job on the colouring.
The drawing itself is well done, although her arm seems slightly off proportion.

Another thing I feel you could have done to make this better, is added an actual background. Backgrounds add so much class to a piece, and if it's relevant they can also add some much needed context.

On that note I have no fucking idea what this is about, is it just some random drawing you did while feeling capricious?

Anyway good job, I'll take a look at your other submissions as well.

Please disregard that retarded comment below from that queer and know that it's not representative of the entire newgrounds community.

XxThumbsuckerxX responds:

Thank you very much for the fair & honest review.

Don't we all?

I always like the pencil crayon aesthetic of your work, and you make a good use of colour too.

On the flip side the lines are a little sloppy, and compared to some of your other pieces it's a little "simple".

Regardless it's a nice little doodle about a "she-bitch".

Sincerely,
- Celx

I admire your use of colour and shading...

The detail on the woman's face is solid too, and those nice little "deformities" add to the comedic value of the piece. I do wish you would have added some sort of background though.

I don't really have understand the context of why you drew this so I'm assuming it's an inside joke or something.

Even so it's a cool submission, well done!
Sincerely,

Pretty concept art...

You have a good amount of imagination, those are wonderful characters.
I think I like "twolip" the best, I think that flower is the most creative, solid job on the shading too.

Was this done in flash, or corel painter or something?
Hmmmmm?

RicePirate responds:

Quickly thrown together in Flash :D Thanks for the kind words <3

Oh boy another Hiryugouki masterpiece!

I can't wait to review this pathetic piece of shit, but first I'll tear apart that list you left on my user page.

"About the censorship: They're trying to broaden their audience, and yes, while artistic nudes and things like that are allowed, no pornographic material is allowed. DeviantART is more awesome than Newgrounds for several reasons:
1) Colleges sometimes go there, and see potential students to recruit.
2) The community is friendlier and more open to criticism.
3) The art quality is more diverse than on Newgrounds.
4) They still allow flash movies and flash games.
5) There are not as many flamers.
6) It's open to all skill levels, ages, etc.
7) Newgrounds IS full of flamers, trolls, etc.
Overall, DA beats Newgrounds by a ton. So, suck on that for a while and come back to me with how Newgrounds could POTENTIALLY beat DA."

1). What the fuck you spouting boy? Colleges don't matter only pretentious cads think an education in art is required to be a good artist. You know what is important to good artists?

Jobs, "nitrome", "fox entertainment", as well as other serious companies have scouted and hired people from newgrounds to work on their projects, why the fuck do you think cartoon network pays someone to run a newgrounds account?

2). That's a fucking joke especially coming from you, since you deleted all the criticism you received on your deviant art page, and deleted the comment I left on your user page like a flaming faggot.

3). Again what the hell are you talking about? Newgrounds has very limited censorship so artist idea's are able to be expressed more freely, as well as an audio portal.

Not to mention the upcoming literature, video portal, and unity support, so we have way more artistic mediums covered than deviantart.

4). ? moot point.

5). The community deletes all criticism, so that too is a moot point, since constructive criticism and non constructive criticism are both deleted in tandem regardless of merit by some asshurt queers.

6). Newgrounds is open to all skill levels too, we just have a judgment system to filter out shit that noone wants to see (obviously it doesn't work very well since your here).

Regarding age restrictions, while newgounds does have restrictions on how old you need to be to participate in the community (which is a minimum age of 13). Deviant art is worse on this front, in fact here is the text verbatim from Deviantarts "terms of service":

"Section II: Additional Terms

13. Registration
To register as a member of the Service or purchase products, you must be 18 years or lawfully permitted to enter into and form contracts under applicable law. In no event may minors submit Content to the Service."

You fucking retard.

7). Or it could be Deviantart is full of people who can't take criticism?

Anyway I'm gonna review that god awful abomination you drew above now.

The proportions are wrong, the pose is lame, I have no idea what's going with the background. Furthermore you claim to have wanted to create a narcissistic character so you would have "freedom with their expressions", then why does she have the same fucking spastic expression you give to each one of your characters?

I fail to see how this is a departure from the rest of that weeboo anime shit you've put up here.

Whatever don't worry I wont review your shit anymore, it's not doing you any good, and it's obvious you would prefer a circle jerk from other "ass to mouth" butt pirates.

I voted this piece fairly, I gave it a 3 despite you're arrogance, audacity, and ego.
If I were to allow your personality to influence your score, I would have given this a zero, and transcended the laws of space and time to travel through my computer screen to yours in order to give you a good hard backhand slap.

Good god I hope you aren't really twenty, if you are get off the basement computer cause you owe your mom rent money...

With love :)

DragonPunch responds:

Yes, I realize I am an arrogant pig sometimes, and thanks for your review. Still, I'm not posting anymore art here for a while. I'm taking a break...

Ha Ha...

You've been hanging out with W-P-S too much...

SpamClamberton responds:

Yeah, he does love his furbies!

Reality Slap...

It is shocking how your art seems to be getting worse with each progressive submission.

You sent this to me a while back via p.m "Sorry, pal...But you're not telling which art style to switch to", the thing is it's not your style it's a poor bastardization of manga.

There isn't any aesthetic aspect that would make me look at your work and say that's a "hiryu gouki piece", aside from the hideous proportions, and grotesque anatomy.

In this piece for example, what the fuck is up with her legs and upper body? The proportions are all wrong, and the wink she's giving is creepy and makes her seem like a pants on head retard. Lastly you couldn't even take two minutes to do a drop shadow properly, that's just lazy.

Uhhhhh fuck you had some of the best artists on newgrounds giving your work criticism and you haven't taken any of their advice to heart, that's sad man.

- Celx

DragonPunch responds:

Actually, I have been trying to take it to heart. I just haven't found my niche yet, but thanks for being an A-hole. Yes, I do acknowledge there are things wrong with this picture, and I intend to do better next time. However, someone like me needs encouragement to do so, not useless bullcrap about calling me names, or saying my stuff is "fucked up" and stuff like that. I need you guys to make better critiques and make it seem like you're not total butt holes.

Thanks.

What the fuck is his name?

You have a similar style to this artist who does really intricate surrealistic portraits of people.

Type "Charles Mason: Superstar Poster" into a search engine, if you wanna see what I mean.

It's quite upsetting I can't remember his name, I'm going to look it up right now...
Fuck!

Anyway really cool picture man, I love the grimy "texture" it has, and the wonderful detail.

Sincerely,
- Celx

jake-jeckel responds:

Maybe you are thinking of the French artist Auguste Rodin who mad the Gates Of Hell ...or damn I can't seem to remember the name of a painting I saw in art history.

Very cool...

I like this, I don't know why the reviewer below felt the lines were off, within the context of the proportions the lines fit quite nicely.

You make a good use of space as well, and the salient bit of red you use on the tongue is well executed and cool.

While it's not quite as nice as the madness picture you did it's still a good picture deserving of something other than a 6...

Sincerely,
- Celx

linda-mota responds:

I guess the madness drawing has set a bar for my work eh? (lol)

This is more of a figure study of one of my characters. It does get very discouraging when people say the way i ink is crappy.

Any way, thank you for rating!

My vices are also my virtues...
