retroarcademonkey's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Commission: KawaiiPoyo]

Very nicely done, mate! Though this is a bit too cutesy for me, I love it nonetheless! and it's good to see another thing from you, since it's been a while since I have noticed any activity from you.

Have a lovely day! ~Retro

ZakkVanBurace responds:

Wow thank you so much!
Have a lovely day too :)!

[TMNT - MS Paint]

Eh...I wouldn't be too excited for the next TMNT movie if I were you.

Great drawing of a cool Ninja Turtle. Oh, and seriously dude, the likely-hood of this movie sucking is incredibly high, and after seeing what they did to the Ninja Turtles in that trailer, I don't think you're gonna be too pleased with Michael Bay's final product.

And, well, if you really want your child-hood icons executed on the big screen, go right ahead. Me, I'm just gonna sit back and watch those Rotten Tomatoes rating go down while TMNT fans cry out in disappointment and shame.

Don't be hyped over a Michael Bay film, Sam. It's not healthy.

[Truc]

That's some colourful-ass hair. Y'know, the eyeballs kind of remind me of the old Mickey Mouse cartoons from the 1930s, which I guess makes sense with the whole black & white colour scheme with this art.

And I hope that gal-pal on Dessiné is super happy about you drawing this for her. :)

ZeTrystan responds:

Ha! Wasn'T really what I was thinking about, but it makes sense.

Dunno! She hasn't reacted to it yet. xD Haha.

[Emerald]

I looked at this, thinking that this was just you as an Adventure Time character. But, according to the description, I am fucking wrong.

This is a drawing of you as a character in an animated TV series by the name of Steven's Universe, which was apparently created by someone who I believe currently works on Adventure Time.

I have never heard or seen the show in my life, but it looks quite interesting in a cool Adventure Timey sort of way. I think I'll go check out Steven's Universe when I get the time to do so.

Oh, and you're looking pretty damn fine with that emerald stuck on your hairy eyeball :)

ZeTrystan responds:

Seriously, this show is Adventure Time worth. It's really great and innocent and dumb and fun.

Ha! I'll have to try to stuck an emerald in one of my eyeballs one day!

[Yuri?]

Uhm....where the fuck is her crotch!? Is it just gone!? Why is this on the art page!? And if you tried to make this artwork sexy, you failed at that with the lack of vagina. Why did you even have the woman's front pants undone if you weren't planning on drawing a vagina in the first place?!

WHY!?

[Odile in a square]

As usual - creative, brilliant usage of colour, and I have always loved how you design characters.

And it seems like this lady here has a note clipped to her shirt because...she's gotta take notes??

ZeTrystan responds:

Baaaaah! Not my design, not my design! Can't take credit for that, haha.

Actually, it's not a note, it's a "Carré rouge", or a "Red square". It's something representing a lot of political elements in Quebec. Here, it's pink-yellow because of the colors the original drawing had. 0:

[One Upper]

That's a one-upper for 'ya! But I have one question - how did that man get hold of a pair of underwear that isn't from that man's wife? Did he just lie and steal his wife's underwear to make a point that he's better than someone?

[Lemon Kill Team]

Very nice!

The Lemon Kill Team - their mission: to kill all the lemons in the world.

And I checked out that link you supplied with this art post...while I have practically zero knowledge of the French language so I had no idea what any of the characters were saying, but I did very much enjoy the artwork and I thought it was pretty cool that you did a sort of "art jam" with these fellow artists.

Wonderful work, friend!

ZeTrystan responds:

NOOOOO, we kill FOR THE LEMONS, you murderer!

This forum is like... a marvellous world of art jams. Everyone respond with drawings, it's amazing.

And thanks! /o/

[Portraits of the People]

I'm looking forward to playing the game you're doing the art for! I think this artwork looks amazing for this game, and I wish you good luck on Idle God III.

"Morte Liberare"

"Morte Aeterna"

ZeTrystan responds:

You can actually already play it on some websites. (I'm not that into it since it's not my type of game, but eh!)

Still, it seems to be a good time killer! :)

[Frozen Venice]

Love the art, love the cold.

I love this artwork about as much as I love the cold. This is a beautiful matte painting that captures the frozen city of Venice perfectly.
You have a damn good sense of the cold with this one, and I have to give you kudos for this one, since I have seen quite a fair amount of artists that can't seem to capture the look of the cold very well.

I am the kind of guy who embraces the cold with open arms, and looking at this only makes me miss the winter even more.
