Properganda's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[new and old]

!

Knew this was your's before even moving my mouse over it.
Obviously that means you have your very own style.
This style I happen to enjoy.
I like that you put the original by it's side so I can play "I spy" to see what's different :-)
The tattoo, bracelet, and eye all seem like they belong, very natural and fluent.
The helemet and sythe(sp) however seem awkward to me for some reason.
Always like your work.

Cute little image.
Text goes a long way in this once hehe.
I just wish you did something different with it, maybe a more bubbly, or halloween related text. It's kinda silly just seeing hte speech bubble, makes me not like it as more just because theres all that white near the top. Maybe just make the white a little more transparent.

You drew this ontop of a photograph layer backround correct?
I'd be even more impressed if you made that backround haha.
This looks like your average family pyro, he's kinda cute haha.
Maybe if you had shown more of his hands, you could have encorporated that he was holding something flammable, possibly even a lighter.
It might have added to the scene a little. As of right now it's simply up to interpritation that the kid standing here has caused a fire, but it's still unkown, he might have just liked the sight!

A female character?
The white is used graciously well, truely gives the monster a more bold look.
The pumpkins just look a little too "copy and paste" to me however.
Maybe not as many pumpkins, I like the red and green bags.
Possibly another color candy rapper in the monsters mouth too - not all candy is green, although it does give that "inside mouth" feel which i'm sure you were going for. All in all a pretty neat looking creature, freindly enough drawn for children even, with a good concept.

[Heaven`s Judge]

Wonderous.
Litterally some of the BEST work i've seen in the art portal.
From the small pictures on the left of the screen from your other art, it seems like you have incredible talent.
How did you do with the illustration competition - if thats happened yet.
If not, you will do well in it :-)

Wenart responds:

I rarely enter the illustration competition because of the job XD whee.. but this one was exceptional XD

[SKITZO!]

!

Death by music.
Haha, love that part.
The backround is amazing, I like how well you masked it.
Even the letters are well done, i've played around with blood drip letters and personally know they arent that easy to make look good.
The graves add that eerie feel as well as the skin color - definattly a zombie.

[Propaganda]

!

Haha, I was about to say "too much white" But then I realized it was ice!
Pretty nice there.
I especially like the 'smoke' Thats definattly the best part.
The hitlir character made me giggle. Especially since; whats going on behind his back.
You're right, I definattly see alot of though in this one.
Love this style.

Angel91 responds:

Thanks man, yeah I thought the same thing with the white but I left it because of that reason.
Yes I also love the smoke I really had to focus on that part.
Oh yeah and here is something for everyone to know about my drawings, I switch styles like crazy to see what one people like and this one is so far the winner, so expect more of this type of work, and another thing to think about is that I draw with no real lights on, except for two black-lights and my tracing lamp if I use that at all, so yeah my style with which I draw if completely out there too. :D

[DRUG TRIP]

!

This peice is much better than some of your other work.
THIS piece actually shows you have some creativity.
I especially like the shrooms in the middle.
Although I hate needles, I think they were a good touch to his arm. Seeing as how someone would be doing "every possible drug"

Angel91 responds:

Hey thanks man.
Yeah I like the shrooms myself, but my other favorite is the gnome throwing up ghosts, and when I tell my friends about the fire breating joint they laugh their asses off.

The Influenza has nothing to do with smoking so i'm confused.
Are you saying people that smoke cigs will be hooked up to oxygen whereas people who choose to smoke different things won't?
Or are you simply saying these people on the left have less care in the world, but will still end up with the influenza anyways.
Whats that hatchet/axe thing for on the right?
The drawing itself isnt even that good, a grade up from bold stick drawings.
You're obviously trying to send a message, or get a point accross but I don't think its working.
I myself smoke both, what good artist hasnt done drugs or gone crazy lol; so am In no way biast, this just does'nt make sence.

Angel91 responds:

OK so Death's scythe is a little small (that is what it lis by the way.
Notice that even the words on the TV are divided into 2, the flu is contagious and is almost impossible to make it go away without medicine, same as ciggs you need nicotine products a\but it will never go away.
See the whole thing with to oxygen tanks is that on tv they make all these commercials just attacking the stereotype pot smoker and saying that this is everyone who smokes pot, so I said everyone who smokes ciggs will end up with an oxygen tank, cuz in school when they scare you as a kid not to smoke they always show those kind of people.
You know what I gotta say to everyone that I am really sorry I thought that this would make sense but I defiantly didn't put in enough time and effort into this, I've just been stressed with college and what not so my mind isn't running very well.
One last thing I also smoke both but I really wish that I never started ciggs because I've tried everything to quit and I can't.

[The Crew]

!

Possibly inspired by your group of freinds?
I really want to see color for some reason, at least in some of the characters.
The front character looks fine without color, but the one to the right of him looks a bit more silly, and looks like he belongs in a more lighthearted catagory, which is hard to acdomplish in black and white.
The lines themselves and the actual drawing is perfect, that was the only flaw I could find and point out so all in all this was a fairly decent work.
