ZJ's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Beach bums]

Your effective use of subtle motion and lighting that seems realistic alongside explicitly bright cartoony characters is really fun. It's like watching a master work in wacky mediums. Always makes me smile.

You are a genius with pixel art and maybe one of the finest to ever do it. Kudos.

[Flavia]

Lookin' good! Fun perspective shift and clean line work.

[Mike]

Phenomenal.

For a black and white sketch, you perfectly captured the wrinkly "tired of your shit" aesthetic that Mike had as a character. Great shit my man.

"Wal-tuh."

[Friday Night Funeral]

Adore this. You have incredible talents in drawing and simple comedy.

[GBAmong Us]

This looks like it could actually run on the actual hardware and would play fairly well. I love pixel artwork that manages to pull that off. Great stuff.

SuperPhil64 responds:

Thanks! I sticked to actual GBA screen resolution and tried to keep the AmongUs visual look and feel while thinking about what things might be different if it was played on a GBA, like having a battery indicator or having player numbers instead of names.

[P-Bot Picollage2020]

This is a really nice meshing of your signature style with a classic NG character. Honesty, I wouldn't mind seeing your artistic take on some other Newgrounds icons.

Bravo!

[Portal Defenders Picollage Piece]

Great piece. Faithful to the original game and a charming crowd piece on its own.

I hope Luis and Bom make the sequel soon. I want to be able to decapitate you and PhantomArcade as Tom Fulp!

[Blast from the Past]

Very cool! Got a very "Joe & Mac" vibe from this! Was that intentional?

[Never Give Up]

Now that's a tasty animated gif!

This is one of the best that you've ever done. I'm constantly in awe of your ability to create tiny bite-sized chunks of fun with these sprites. "Darnell Break Dancing" is such a simple concept, but you really squeezed all of the creative juice you could out of it. I hope you never stop!

Happy Pixel Day.

Luis responds:

It’s weird responding to your reviews because I feel like can just do it in person or next time I talk to you but I can’t sleep so.

I am tempted to eventually update this with him nailing the routine after 4 or 5 loops and not telling anyone I updated it. Hmmm. I probably won’t. Once I sign a gif I can no longer touch it.

You have a cute belly button in this one. Good job.
