Chip-Potato's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[50 Bowser in Different Art Styles]

This is such an impressive demonstration of artistic flexibility. I think my only real gripe is that Undertale-Bowser looks a bit *too* clean and it feels like it has a smidge too much detail. Most of the battle screen's sprites in that game are sort of known for being a bit rough around the edges. That's not to say that it looks bad, though; I could see it being more of what you'd see if there was an official collaboration between Nintendo and Toby Fox that involved Bowser in Undertale, for whatever reason.

Again, though, that's just one sprite of fifty! If I were grading this, the worst I could give it is 98%, which is still an A! Outstanding work, as always.

Izzi8bit responds:

That's a totally fair criticism, I might play with it!

[Persona 5 x Undertale]

This is such a clean meshing of two very different aesthetics, it's actually incredible. Also, big fan of that Jack sprite!

[9 Years of UNDERTALE]

This would make such a badass cover for Undertale's Steam grid or one of the physical editions. It feels so true to the game's style while also enhancing the details. Also love how it calls back to that one Kickstarter image with the silhouettes of all the monsters.

[they don't open up much '']

I absolutely adore your style. Everything feels so chunky in a way that draws your attention, but it's also not overwhelming. Also, I love the square shoes.

[LISA Style Sprites]

I really adore what you did with my character (the guy in the hat on the bottom left). I mean, I love what you did with everyone here, but I just especially love how Sergio was rendered. His hat is fantastic, and his Joy Mutant form is really something else.

Also, Jingles 2 is so Jingles.

[erm... what the cheese?]

You made the poses so dynamic, and you gave the Toppins so much depth. I can practically hear them scampering to catch up with Peppino!

[pizza tower but they're WOMEN (and one guy)]

I've always been a big fan of women!

[Burlesque of Neptune]

This is such an intriguing concept for a monster. Something lurking in the deep with a body part it extends to the surface to find its prey. Like a handpuppet... er, tonguepuppet?

Thank you so much!! I can't remember if I had any particular inspirations with this piece -- I have all of my sketches, info, and creative process for this piece over here: https://beethovenus.myportfolio.com/burlesque-of-neptune

[madness (shit)]

You really did a good job capturing the style and method of character design in the actual series! I notice that most if not all characters will typically be built off of the same base, and then have a handful of distinguishing features given to reflect their personality- this is clearly what you did here!

The hair, bag, glasses and name tag(?) create visual interest, but the detail that really centers the viewer's attention is the missing jaw, as its blood-red and pearly-white color scheme contrasts nicely with the greys of the rest of the design! Even with the bandana in the bottom right, you still have a bit of visible blood spatter, and the design on the front of it has pure white fangs.

All in all, IMO, this is a really cool design that fits really well within the world of Madness Combat!

Beethovenus responds:

Thank you!! This was my first ever time doing Madness Combat art, and it was meant moreso as just shitty doodles than anything else. I think I did the style pretty well, and I'd be interested to see what higher-effort piece I could make.

[WORT WORT WORT]

AUGH, LOHBABA
