"Amazing BUT"

submission: Waterlollies

I think this was absolutely fascinating. The art style is the best I have ever seen on New grounds. I never write reviews on here but I really think this deserved one. Your imagination and attention to detail is easily professional standard. The visual quality and character concepts are fantastic!

You are very imaginative when it comes to your visual designs, you obviously have a lot of talent in that respect. Now I don't think I am the only one who thinks it but your story development is pretty lacking. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the randomness of it. This is not a complaint, more of a suggestion, but I do think you should apply your amazing artistic talent on something which has a consistent storyline. I mean, develop an overall plot to flow through a series of animations. Write a story from begging to end which has a continues plot. I mean, you are extremely well known, therefore people WILL jump at the chance of voice acting for you.

Just to let you know, I wouldn't be saying this if I didn't see the potential in your imagination. Like I said before your character designs are fantastic, which tells me that you do HAVE a great sense of imagination.

Look at anime for a good idea of what I mean, not the style but the story development. Elfen Lied, Apple Seed etc...If I had your skills in art and animation I wouldn't waste it on random animated shorts such as this, I would work on something more epic and cinematic.

I hope you take my ideas into consideration.

Castle III part D

submission: Castle III part D
date: May 22, 2007

Only watched a little of part A and im sure i'll like the rest...The reason I havn't watched it all yet is because I wondered if you have released a downloadable version of the whole thing, in a video format so we can watch it all together rather than in 4 parts. If it's 30 minutes long then Id like to sit back and watch it all kinda like a movie, never done that with a flash before. Thanks man.

Hey mate is was pretty short and like some other people pointed out, theres not much animation in there. The men look like they were traced from pics of either Call of Duty or Day of Defeat, some kind of WW2 fps game anyway. If this is true then I would suggest working on some of your own art rather than tracing, as any person with a mouse can trace. Anyway good luck with the movie and this was only 'constructive criticism' btw.

Author's Response:

I didnt trace 'em in bitmap. I drew someway DoD picture over. And then I deleted the picture under the drewed object. Hope you like the whole movie. Thanks still man!
