MrPastoolio's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[{BT} Reflexion]

Nice

Probably one of my favorites. Not totally sure why, but I think the marble texture is part of it. Calm and abstract.

BenTibbetts responds:

Thank you. I appreciate your continued attentions.

[{BT} Change]

Hmmm

Its always neat to see how you render things with something special each time. Makes them unique and interesting. Is that where Irfanview comes into play?

BenTibbetts responds:

I discovered Irfanview some years ago when I was looking for a program which could easily convert BMP's to JPG's, and eventually realized the usefulness of its many effects plugins. However in this case I actually morphed the images together in a program called Game Maker, using its built-in sprite editing system. Basically I use a wide spectrum of free programs to do the jobs that could be handled by expensive software such as Adobe Photoshop.

[{BT} Island 1]

Nice

The fog and water give it a nice fantasy feel. Looks pretty great overall.

BenTibbetts responds:

Thanks. I appreciate your continued interest in my work!

[Hi, THERE!]

Woo

You made him! :D Thank ya. I don't like the lines in his specular though. Makes it look strange.

JoSilver responds:

I tryed to give it the look of brushed metal...

[Your Head...]

Nice

Great improvement from the other model. Hair looks a lot smoother. Great show btw. One of my favorites. Great job, hope ya make Gir.

JoSilver responds:

Maybe I will make Gir...

[{BT} Quiet]

Nice

Like the silhouettes of the mountains in the background. Very calm.

BenTibbetts responds:

Thank you

[Ibanez AR 250]

Wow

I viewed full size to try to find any nasty lines. There weren't any that I could see. I'd have to see an actual one to even nitpick. Great great job.

[{BT} Divine Intervention]

O.o

Terribly simple. I don't use Bryce... Is the glow/smoke hard to make? It just seems really simple.

BenTibbetts responds:

It is simple; maybe I should add more to this. Atmospheric effects in Bryce are easy to set up but take many hours to render and don't always come out the way they're supposed to. Thanks for the comment.

[Chill Out 01]

Tis needo

But I'm not sure if it'd be 3D art. If you mean the lines making a 3D effect, I suppose. But it's still a lil sketchy. :S Neat regardless.
