Hallucinogen2's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mermaid]

this is such a wonderful series thank you so much for making it <3<3 genuinely brilliant in every way and i love all your characters (the good ones, you know)

handofdog responds:

Thank you very much, seriously. Some days it's easy to get lost, focusing on error, questioning your own creations, hard to see outside itself. But today, right now, I see such a message and it feels really good.

I'll never take for granted anyone that has interest in my work, with how much other stuff is out there. So thank you, to everyone, from bottom of my heart. :) (Sorry to be a bit sappy, it just really hit me)

i love these characters theyre so cute :)

handofdog responds:

Thank you! They make me happy.

[eric blasko things]

can you elaborate on "thought he had a foot fetish onec" plz o_O

handofdog responds:

From watching Quentin Tarantino's movies, who has a lot of shots focused on women's feet.

[Hairstyle Meme! [Bonus Text #2]]

in my opinion its refreshing to see your characters in a lighter situation. at-tan and doctor are cute :^3 (probably not the other guy though (probably)) also doctor with forehead cover looks like this picture of young aphex twin https://i.imgur.com/EjqyFph.jpeg

handofdog responds:

Oh, okay. I just can't stand constant torture porn. I really liked the joke/dog ending in Silent Hill 2 (where my username is from) but that ending had a criticism of being tone deaf.

Micah would be cute, too, if he wasn't racist or had anger issues I'd say. And I like that photo, it's been fun looking for alt fashion for men. ^_^

[At-tan vs At-tan]

you have a real talent animating your characters... they really truly feel alive. a highlight for me were the last 2 panels on page 2. fantastic storytelling as well! im not a professional comment reader so maybe im wrong but i havent seen any mentions of your storytelling ability. ive grown attached to at-tan and to doctor. i want to see her prosper and be genuinely happy, and i hope thats how the story ends, whenever—if :P—it ends. until then... god bless you and god bless at-tan and doctor :]

handofdog responds:

Thank you! I like to watch how people move/act irl, it's a tip I see cartoonists mention. I've gotten messages about my writing abilities before. It always takes me by surprise but also very pleasant to speak to people this way. I'm a complete amateur when it comes to art/writing/comic paneling. "Amateur" not meaning "bad", just that I have to teach myself.

The people who just go for it regardless of their current skill or professional status give me inspiration cause I like their stuff and would be sad if they never put their creations out there.

At-tan still a work-in-progress, but I'm getting there. God bless you, too. Thank you for the comment. :)

[Lobo suelto]

i love it.......... such fly ass shit and a bithcin departure from your usual style :^D good work!

batfick responds:

thank you so much dude!

[At-tan Funnies #3]

i never took it as political, nor, frankly, as uninteresting. its something that's not often acknowledged, especially by men, and its exciting to me to see someone (you) speaking about it unabridged and thankfuckinggod not super self-indulgent like a lot of fuckin artists tend to be. to be making this point on newgrounds no less; it fuckin rocks. good shit :]
have a good break brother. i await your return :]

handofdog responds:

It's hard to tell how people will take things. You see something cool from the past or get an idea for a character and then you're treated like YOU are every character. It's something I'd get in trouble for, but not everything created is autobiographical.

Anyway, thank you very much.

[Junk Cover 25]

beyond gorgeous, your penchant for detail is outstanding. + big respex 4 black and white!

McLovinZer responds:

Thanks !

[Mickey Mouse morph]

it's so smooth :D were you inspired by vince collins in any regard?

HeelsforEels responds:

Maybe, but not in a conscious way if that's the case. I have seen some Vince Collins things, sure, Life is Flashing Before Your Eyes is beautiful! Thanks!

[Affectionate]

bloody (and) adorable <3

Nabella responds:

You can't spell "cute" without "cut"!!
