I very much love this!

linda-mota responds:

of course you do.

[Different eyes]

Congratulations on the front page Linda, you've made me proud, though I still think that blue baby print you did is your best piece :)

Simple but unique, I'm really happy your getting some recognition!
With love,
- Celx

linda-mota responds:

I'm really surprised this made frontpage! This was a quick test inkwash based on some stuff. This is a nice surprise.

Oh Serene,

You're work is erotic while being classy, even though I'm not a fan of pepperoni nipples, I still think this kaleidoscope inspired piece is pure boss.

I love the line work on the hair, and it's nice to see some Bermuda triangles, I thought porn had destroyed the concept of pubic hair, so your work is a nostalgic, and quixotic reminder of things long since past.

Your poses, continue to become more "organic", and "natural" and that's a good thing. I think once an artist has mastered facial features, they tend to forget about the other parts of the body that evoke emotion, like the hands, and feet.

The way you present a persons hands is wonderful, and I feel adds a lot to your work on a subliminal level.

My favourite artist for this reason is Masami Teraoka, if you look at his piece "Sarah and the octopus (Aids series)", or "Today's Special (31 flavours invading Japan)" they display pure ecstasy because he's mastered the little human mannerisms that other artists neglect.

You're a fantastic artist, and I hope you continue to grow and progress as an artist, I look forward to how your work will evolve, if your current body of work can be used a prognostication of things to come I'm sure I wont be disappointed.

Sincerely,
- Celx

Thanks so much celx for that amazing review about how i can make the bush look appealing. Perhaps its my bisexuality coming out in my drawings as i do love to look at the lovely ladies with their upturn skirts in the summer wind or just an overall desire to be enjoy the many beautiful breasts and beavers the world has to offer, with my face buried in it, who knows? love the artist recommendation and the support that you have given. it really does mean a lot :)

serenekitchen responds:

Ho Ho Ha Ha He He OHHHH!!!

Is this the cat-man?
Nice detailing, the curly hair, and toenails are really fugly details, I wish I could purge from my memory.

Seriously though you have a distinctive style, and I'm always excited to see how you continue to progress, just stay away from "fat cats".

linda-mota responds:

Really this was no one until my sister looked at it and scooted about fifteen feet away and said it looked like my ex. I have a hard time looking at it now is nasty and reminds me of some nasty stuff he did.

As long as everyone is grossed out about it I'm okay.

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...
Sincerely,
- Celx

linda-mota responds:

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.

Sincerely,
- Celx

XxThumbsuckerxX responds:

Thank you very much for the fair & honest review.

[EBF4 : Flowers]

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?

Sincerely,
- Celx

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...

[Furbyhead]

Ha Ha...

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

Yeah, he does love his furbies!
