LauraBR's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Larry Robertson]

This is a well-rendered sketch, but the nose is slightly off. If you want to improve, I'd recommend sitting down and drawing a bunch of different realistic noses in different poses... copying Bargue plates from online really helped me out.

AlecsHere responds:

Thank you very much :)

[practice]

Tbh, I think it's perfect like this. The soft glow and cloud-like feel is extremely appealing, and the simple composition is very powerful.

saninakreid responds:

Thank you!!! Such a lovely comment. :)

[skoo77]

I love his expression! "Looking in the mirror like"
The missing tooth is a particularly nice touch, and the scratchy lines make me happy.

PegasuTV responds:

Thanks! eh nois

[Dominator]

I love the dynamism of this! The lighting is also great, it's just so delightfully goopy.

[Myla ( version 2 ) and Happy Inktober!]

This is absolutely incredible. Your inking is so crisp and clear and strong!

[Tree in Front Yard]

This is so beautiful I kind of want to cry. I'd say you definitely learned lighting and color. <3

kittenbombs1 responds:

Wow, thank you Laura, that is so heart warming.

[Arena - 01 - Fight]

This is like candy for my eyes. The composition is great and I love the color scheme especially.

YariGrafight responds:

Glad that you like it :)

[Quiet and DD]

This isn't too bad, but it could use some tweaking. DD's tail and paws are cut off abruptly, and his short snout makes him look more like a cat than a husky. Quiet's hips are too narrow in proportion to her shoulders and I would have cheated her head more towards a profile in order to match her stance.
All that being said, I like how you don't shy away from a pose slightly more complicated and dynamic than a straight-up profile or head-on view, and your porportions are fundamentally sound. Keep up the good work!

SwordArtLagoon responds:

Thanks! :D I'll take this into account ^_^

[World War 3]

There's something very solid about your art style, very thick and heavy: I feel like wor works've been carved out of stone, not drawn. I like it a lot!

jungmeister responds:

MY ART STYLE IS VERY THICK AND HEAVY U SAY. YOU MEAN JUST THIS PIECE U FEEL HEAVY AND THICK AND CARVED OUT OF STONE?? IS IT BECAUSE THERE ARE LOTS OF CEMENT AND STONED IN THIS ARTWORK PERHAPS???

[what i do everyday]

The single most upsetting thing about this is that this is exactly what I did while I read it.
