Filling up my backlog.

Posted by Zilof - October 29th, 2018


Got a backlog of art from the year, so will be uploading some older work from earlier this year.

Tendonitis has kinda knocked my arm out for most of the year but its been slowling coming back, and I hope to have more new work to show soon.

EDIT:
That being said after making myself familiar with the wiki and guidelines, I will make sure to only submit works I feel to be very polished to the Art Portal ( should I be scouted ).
Sketches and reference sheets will be placed appropriately.

Some solid work so far, gonna check out; leave a few reviews... great to hear you're adhering to rules and all too. :D This is usually the first thing I link to if users ask about that: https://ornery.newgrounds.com/news/post/388624

Sorry bout that Tendonitis too, hope that gets better!

Thanks! I hope so too. My output has been very low due to it, and there's a lot I want to try out and work on. But it is what it is y'know?

I'm really happy to see the rules are strict too! Gave it a good read the other day and its very concise and straightforward. I only worry about the scouting thing ( not in what it is or how its carried out of course ) due to not wanting to let folks down somehow y'know? Heaven forbid I ruin it for someone somehow.

I'm reading the reviews now! Thank you so much ( I'll get back to them individually )!
NG already has been such a more constructive and positive experience.

Thanks for the visit too, hope the day's treating you well!

For sure, can't do much about the much you can't do much about...

If only all artists actually paid attention to them. :) Or were half as self-conscious about their artistry! Honestly I'm surprised how critical you are about what you've submitted, since it holds such good quality compared to the most part! Now that you're scouted you can see what I'm talking about here: https://www.newgrounds.com/art/unscouted

Though there's definitely a great deal of amazingly talented artists too... too much to take in all of it. In the beginning you'd recognize names but now it's becoming like DA. Such a flood. Too many to keep track of.

Anyway I don't think you need to worry about the scouting thing... for your own art at least. If you're not sure about something: just don't click that 'for the portal' checkbox It's fine to upload general sketches and WIPs too if they're profile-only, and so far all your work's definitely portal quality. Definitely best to think about who you scout though, so they're not someone prone to break rules or scout others who do.

Hey thanks for the in-depth responses too! :D To respond to the responses (since you can't do so on reviews): Tall Knight's definitely portal quality too. :) It's not as common a style, but with that amount of detail there's no doubt about it. Regarding Voxel hmm, maybe just less material fire? I feel it feels solid the way the edges are formed... or a level of transparency/fade. Could do some experiments there! I'm no master of the craft but sure, feel free to ask about anything if you think I might have an answer. :)

Glad to hear you're getting pretty good first impressions of this place! You too!
