SimCorder's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Merry Christmas or Xmas Eve ⛄️]

The resemblance to the old school official artwork is indistinguishable to me. The Presentation is wholesome and in the spirit of Christmas, and I love every bit of it.

[Spoiler]

Spoiler was the character that made me aware of Zeurel's work when he debuted on NG years ago. Been a fan of his ever since, while his OCT days seem to be over, its nice to see people still remember/draw him.

As for the work itself, its flawless as far as my amateur eyes tell. For some reason the way you drew spoilers head/face feels more... "right/correct" when compared to Zeurel. I can't put my finger on why though.

Thanks so much. I tried to use a mix of his character sheet and I watched the old flash animations to kinda get a feel of both styles and then try and mix em up together

The amount of malicious menace in that face, I love it.

[Air Man (PSX Style)]

Waiting for that day when you go through enough of the robot masters that some programmers gonna approach you asking to use your models in a fan game. This is really good recreation.

Whenever I look at Lucy, I can't stop thinking about the character designs from the game Don't Starve. Although there are some stark differences (namely in terms of realism and stretchy-ness) the aesthetics have a similar flavor, if that makes any sense.

I like how this turned out in your style, especially the eyes, deviating from the traditional angular/anime eyes gives your version some novelty. However, I'm not sure why tho, but Shantaes hip in the right pose bugs me.. I can't explain it, weither the hip is too thick or positioned just slightly odd, I can't put my finger on it.

Pretty good overall

[Poor Lewis]

Feels a bit more insane asylum from what I remember, but aside from that, nails all the familiar vibes.

[Bejabbers]

You recaptured the style of the original art and the charm of the cast perfectly. I love it

When I look at this, I notice there are some similarities to Mogy64's artwork, most notably in the paint-like coloring style and the fine tuned/realisitc details in anatomy. While it might just be a coincidence and/or a sign of expert level artistic skills, I'm curious if there was any inspiration taken in regards to Mogy's work.

As for the picture itself, its really well done. What I think makes this unique is the attention to detail and objects in the back & foreground, especially with the robot in the reflection of the mirror.

cashumeru responds:

thanks Sim! i like little details and fleshing them out is the best part! mogys a good friend of mine, tho im curious how painted backgrounds and anatomy details could be a staple of someone specific, but im just assuming youre used to seeing artists/pieces within a newgrounds frontpage basis mostly so i understand why youd make the association
