ArkKay's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[hoods]

This is absolutely unbelievably fantastic. I took off half a star because of the glaring blue border of the bottom of the hood. I understand why it has to be that way, but I feel that the color is too glaring and distracts from the face. In my opinion a few shades darker should still be light enough to be visible without being so bright.

spacefader responds:

You are probably right, I kind of chose the colours in an arbitrary fashion.

[T-45d Power Armor]

This is great. But please do one of T-51B; I always thought that enclave armor looked hideous by comparison.

deathink responds:

WHAT! I love the fallout 2 enclave armor, but yeah in fallout 3 the T-51b looked much better.

[Politically Correct Artwork]

I agree with the sentiment of this, and also your post in that thread. Frankly, it was a mistake on Tom's part to claim all that bleeding heart sympathy for loved ones stuff. Its patently untrue. Tom just realized his website was going to be viciously attacked in the media unless he did X. He should have just said that, and we could all move on.

Cyberdevil responds:

Whichever the reason behind his decision was, if it was out of sympathy, or out of fear for the media, it still feels like the wrong decision. It'd still spark this debate (probably even more so if he mentioned it was all due to media pressure - there's no sympathy in that), because this is an important stance for the site. I'm still hoping the debate will, if not change this case, at least make it clear for the future what's important to the users! Would be a real shame if this is the future. Thanks for the comment.

[guns and girls]

Each piece on its own is good. The most glaring problem I have us that the pixel size of the rifle and the character are different. Because of that I consider this to be an illustration, not pixel art.

Also where is her right arm or left arm? And does the gun stand on its own buttstock?

Even so, the parts are individually well done.

HiZtory responds:

they're behind her back and yee sure i didn't put that much thought into it so whatever works.

[Abandoned]

This is fantastic. The light from the window and the brickwork really caught my eye.
