DrClay's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Clown Surprise]

A nice little short, nice art and animation style. Most people would probably have a problem with tweening, but I'm not someone like that. Nice job. The only thing I would say, and this is nitpicking really, is that the outlines are a little thick.

MisterHerbal responds:

Thanks for your feedback buddy. I appreciate it.

[Rise Of The Gunslinger]

Very nice

The art could use some work, but you really make up for it by all the different angles and music alone. Its also pretty neat how you didn't use any voices for the characters. We don't hear them speak, but we get an impact from them.
I also liked how your character development is.
You have my personal thumbs up. Keep it up.

savage011 responds:

thanks! im glad you enjoyed it

[Snowarfare]

It could of been improved a bit

Don't get me wrong, this was fucking awesome.
You have a really great Anime like skill, and are excellent at FBF.
But there is a slight lack of sound. The music is nice, but it lacks sound effects.
The flash itself was kinda short. I mean, the cartoon was funny. But I was expecting a huge fight scene in the ending.
I still would rate this a 4.5
but with the amount of effort put into this flash and your previous works (like your madness stuff), it is a little fair to expect a little more.

Nevertheless, another great piece.

Hulalaoo responds:

I preferred not to sounds, to relax

["...is Done" ROBOTDAY2010]

Are those backgrounds from Garry's Mod?

I was actually expecting the toast part, but then I thought "Naaa, that is just silly" but then it happened.
The animation for the dancing was good, but it got a little repetitive. However, once it got to the part about the toast, you managed to have a whole bunch of different animations, instead of dance loops. Which is a good thing by the way.

Could someone please tell me what just happened though :P

[The Duders: Ep. 3 Part 1]

neat

You got some good set of cast and art here and there, though it appears that you make new drawings for each pose, which is really cool. But it just looks a little odd that they jump to that pose right away, maybe make a middle drawing of them moving towards that pose.
You know, before raising arm then raising arm, it might improve it more.
Whatever works.
Nice voices too.

TheCriminalDuder responds:

Yeah ya caught me. I cut corners a try to animate stuff within 3 or 4 frames or poses. I'll up the effort and add more in the next episode.
Thanks for the review.

[Sketchy Friends Dance 2]

so simple and yet so awesome

I absolutely love it. Great FBF skills and very funny style. I enjoyed the way each thing moved with the song, especially the frog XD

TheBoogley responds:

Hey! You're only the second person with the frog as their favourite, you are almost unique, actually you would be if you killed that other guy :)

[Super Paper Robot]

Kind of a sudden ending...

Your animation and all was pretty good, and I liked your style. But it almost seems like it is unfinished. I mean he just flies away for no reason. I thought he was going to follow the planes and do another thing. You had a good idea, but it seems like you didn't give enough, effort maybe. You had good effort in style, but it really it wasn't much in story. You could of done better man, I hope you get back to yourself again.

M4KBOT responds:

The robot realised that it had made a mistake by throwing the man at the helicopter so he decided to leave the city.

[Sonic Chaos]

>:(

I want to know why THIS WAS OVERLOOKED. This was very funny and I could watch it any time any day. The choice of music was great!
Very funny opening with Tails by the way.
I Hope to see more funny stuff from you.

golfinho responds:

okay drclay!

[Paper's edge]

Very Nice

Very awesome job man, I mean wow. I enjoyed the blur effect you gave him as he moved. At first I thought that was because of the video quality, cuz you know some videos in flash don't want to stay high quality. Never the less, I soon saw that you in fact blurred him away.
My only problem is the angles, sometimes the camera seems to far away or to much on an... angle with the paper. I get the idea of you wanting to show it was on paper and all, but maybe make your drawings larger next time, if you continue this.

Good Job

stickbob123 responds:

thanks...i had a good camera, but its zoom quality was :( and >:p so you know how that goes. i recently had that camera stolen :( so i got the newer model which is frikkin amazing and seems like it was made, specifically, for paper's edge 2. (still working on the title...might just leave like that.)

[LARRY episode 1]

Awesome man

Great Job, I haven't seen this creativity since Tarboy. I see you went the extra mile, and having your own music man helps provide your originality A LOT!
I am looking forward to the next episode.
You also had good voice actors as well.
But what I really adored was the motion tweens. Usually motion tweens look unreal or lazy, but with this it looked as good as frame by frame. Besides to me you drew enough for it to be frame by frame. Good Job.
Please let this be a series that will be finished, so many series I've seen always get cut off and the author leaves.

One thing I saw was your image quality with the backgrounds, maybe play around with that. But that isn't really a big deal (I'm referring to the blurred images you used to lower the chances of lag by the way)

What do you use to draw, a regular tablet or an actual one with its own screen?

Oh yeah, and I loved how you had that effect in the credits. 10/10
You are officially my favorite author

Jazza responds:

dont compare this crap to tarboy. no comparisson. thanks tho.
i promise it wont be cut off though. i intend very much to keep this going.

i use a tablet with a screen. it pays off in the end.

thanks man
