ULTIMA-INFINITY's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Remember Forever]

Exquisite.

With your talent, my mind can rest easy.
The bright blueish hue of the whole thing calms my nerves easily and caringly, which makes this piece a true wonder of curiosity.

It is very rennaisance, which I find to be very ecstatic. Your use of your ability ceases not to amaze me.

The shades of the pale blue water are very design, and should not go unnoticed. You did a fine job with that water, and I know for a fact that drawing water in anime style is hard for most, but you make it seem like it is but simple to do. The shading is very effective, and that counts. Detail is incredible.

The flawless design of the structure in the back is amazing as well, for I can see everything that is intensely, yet calmingly thrust into my eyes, and the way you did it is highly respected by me. Though the castle may be blue, there is a pure-white meaning about it. The spires are expertly thought out, and the birds are beautiful. The only thing I request is that you add a swan next the young, gorgeous girl, and that brings me to my next critiquing.

The flow of the character is astonishing - absolutely no flaws. I will admit, the stars in her eyes are a bit much, but that's okay. Her hair waves out to me like a ripple in a pond, and getting that kind of result must be difficult. The skin tone is masterfully marked, which makes her even more beautiful, and that gives a bonus, because this kind thing puts a smile on my face ^_^.

The dress is really well though out. It's design could be seen in actual life, but for now, I admire the work you put into it. The way it contours and molds to her body is somewhat arousing, but hey, a little excitement goes a long way sometimes. Keep in mind, though, that this is not always the case, though it's an exception here. The color/s that you decided on for her garment is nothing short of fantastic, and it contrasts to the rest of the pick very effectively.

Last, but not least, the necklace. Pure rarity, and such a masterful design. That necklace is a sign of beauty, and marks a girl with fashion know-how. The crescent moon shape of the center piece of that pendent is remarkable and also deserves bonus points.

Extraordinary job. I await even greater things from you.

Gachi cool.

Very sexy. Nuff said.

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about.

Fire. Passion. Elegance. Ferocity.
The style of clarity is, above all, interesting to look at. The way the colors flow throught the vastness of infinity is striking to the mind.
I can understand where you were coming from about the exams, but you did manage to find the time in this artwork that you have pulled out. I've got to say, you are one dazzling artist. It's almost like you've spent centuries perfecting your techniques.
The aspects are spectacular. I'm pretty sure it would tough to make lava in manga/anime style, but you have, once again, blown my mind with your superior ability. The colors of the fire are amazingly beautiful and dangerously hot at the same time. I know that sounds weird, but that's I believe.
The detail one the chains is awesome to boot. Now, normally, they don't whip around like that by themselves, but this is manga art we're talking about here, and in manga, anything is possible.
The clothes, on the other hand, look like they're about to catch fire due to the intense heat inside that magma field. But, this being anime, the fact that they haven't suggest that he's just high up enough for that NOT to happen, and that makes me revel in his presence. Also, the detail of the stalagmites blows me away.
That's about all I can say for this one. Nice job. I am eager, excited, and breathless with anticipation for your next submission.

Truth be told, if there's something nice about posting my art on Newgrounds, is you! XD I love your deep comments, they really make worth the time spent drawing my art.
Thank you very much for your words, I truly appreciate it :)

Wonderful.

Once again, I am impressed and amazed with your work, and it seems to me that you love doing this kind of stuff, and I have to say, it is fantastic.
The details are, once more, refined and mastered to perfection, especially wit the personality that you've got going on here. She may look sweet and innocent, but those looks don't fool me one bit, because even from a reality standpoint, I can tell that she is one girl you don't want to mess with, and it's that fiery passion that gets me going for the intense battle action that I crave.
The backdrop is brilliantly stunning and is just 100% percent perfect for the mood that I know that you're trying to bring out in this piece. My favorite part of the bg has to be the moon, though, because without the moon, there is no mood, and besides, what could be better than that? It's a magnificent blue-ish hue that would calm even the most enraged mind, and that is saying something. Also, the stars are just beautiful. No question about that.
Being a full-time anime freak, I know just what to look for when it comes to style and personality; I have definately found that here. What strikes me as amazing is that her eyes are different colors, which, to me, says that she was born a half-breed, and I'm pretty sure it must be hard to pull that off, although it's quite impossible in this life (irrelevant - I know.)
When it comes to detail, this piece has got it and much, much more. The style of her wardrobe looks totally renaissance, which is highly appropriate for the game. But not only is it picturesque, the fluidity of it is outstandingly admirable, the that it hugs her and compliments her, regardless of the fact that she's petite.
And let's not forget about the hair: The way it glows like a sapphire in bright sunlight brings me almost to tears, and that's no joke. It could look better longer, but then again, the length is complimentary.
Moving right along to the cape. I got to hand it to you - it must be hard to get that kind of "flapping-in-the-wind" effect without totally killing the whole thing, and the shading on it is marvelous, and it's that kind of effort that I tend to look for. But who am I to be judging? It's not like I could do this since I've never done it in the first place.
But I digress. The trick with the flowers was really well played out, as it should be. And really, the blurring effect that you put on them really does direct the eyes to the more important parts of the pic. And honestly, I kind of like looking at pictures like this. Keeps the nightmares away, so bonus points for that.
Last, but not least, you did an incredible amount of work on the dress, as well as the accessories that come/go with it. Not sure if the chain was optional or not, but it's a nice touch. The skirt is very stylish and looks like one of today's minis. But my favorite part of the whole garment has to be the emerald-studded ribbon. I mean, it is just gorgeous. Just look at it: How could anyone NOT be drawn to it? It's like a moth to a lamp. And a jewel that size and that rare would easily be worth at least $85,000. Maybe even more. Also, the ring on her hand is brandingly out of this world.
Long review short, great work. Can't wait to see what's next.

Ohhh THAAANK YOUUU VERY MUCH!!!
You're comments are so dedicated, I love them!
It really makes worth the time spent in doing my works ^^!

[Anne's wardrobe malfunction]

Amazingly Awesome!

This is one hell of a sexy piece of work you got going here. I especially love the choice of color that you used for the swimsuits. The eyes are very well done. The anatomy is right - everything is just perfect. I love it.
A couple of tips: Try working on making the lines in some areas a little more prominent, like the hands of the taller girl. All in all, great work.

[Charity]

Awesome

Once again, you have blown my mind with your superior artistic skills, and half of the rest of your work doesn't even compare to this.
Just kidding. ALL of your work is awesome, but this - I've been waiting a while, but hey, those who wait are rewarded.
I especially love the unique party-timish style of it, and the fact that it blends together without flaw is just incredible. I will admit, though, the colors are a bit bright. But hey, it works.
One excellent piece of work. I absolutely adore it. (On a personal note: 20 more years have been added to my life. Thanks)
Please keep making this kind of art. I love it.
