post-intellectual's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[An abstract world]

very nicely done! i don't even think this needs more variation in the textures. you sure know how to play with gradients!

[Abstract]

you sure want to get somewhere with this. you could try running some filters on ot to really mess it up. i use gimp with g'mic as a plugin for that. you could also try adding some things within the boxes.

[Abstract Geometry]

well that was a good try! nice rough feel. not entirely sure if that was what you wanted but if so, then you did really good, especially with the stripes and hatching here and there. i would've specifically included some subject matters which people commonly think of as 'rough' like industrial landscapes. you can find some public domain stuff to work with from pexels and then use a local contrast filter or some other detail enhancement thing to make it all grimy like you did here.

[shit post # i dunno]

"father, do you believe in me like you said you did years ago?"

[Dog Days of Summer]

masterful. great use of perspective and filled with little details, even the lights all the way in the distance.

i know it gets up to 50 degrees Celsius over there, but i wouldn't even survive 35...

[The Invaders]

hauntingly dark. was originally sceptical due to it but it actually makes it a lot more austere and oppressive. i think it would fit some psx doom style ambient music rather than trance.

[2d homology]

i see another mb3d user in action! thanks for reminding me about it, i haven't been doing that for ages. i might try again, i hope they added some stuff to it.

good and haunting red lights. nice contrast with the dull grey. looks like a bony chamber for two luminous and sensitive fleshy things that no-one should touch. if they do, they'll release some very annoying and deadly creatures.

[Melting Madness]

'madness' tends to get boring after a while, though a strong fellow might be able to find difference and strength even in what nietzsche called the 'eternal recurrence of the same'. might be a theme for you to explore. but nope that's apparently 'stupid nonsense' according to tough guy tom

[White Rabbit]

an unusual and inventive take on the world of alice in wonderland; i'm saying that with just this image to go by. the somehow dull-yet-bold face caught my attention a lot; i had to give it a second look!

Hyptosis responds:

Thank you! :D

[Brainglitch]

i could definitely stare at this for hours; i hope for your sake that it didn't take so long to make! perfect for an album cover too.

LexRodent responds:

Glad you enjoy it.
It took a while to make, but wasn't too much to burn my eyes.
