[Nerd VS Ryu]

The nerd!

It seems like it's been awhile since I have seen stuff featuring the Angry Video Game Nerd. What's really impressive about this art piece is that it's so well drawn. This looks just like what the Nerd would look like if he was in the Street Fighter game. The effects done are downright awesome and look so CGI! It would have been nice to see them fighting but still a very well done art piece. I think it's funny how his attack is the "F Bomb".

I can just imagine him using that power while fighting Ryu. He just looks so dignified with that clean haircut. It reminds me of the haircut I just got today, too bad I don't have a power glove like that. Everything is so authentic to the original style of the real game it makes me think you would be great at game designing here.

The real Slenderman!

This is a much better picture because we get to see the actual Slenderman! It is here that your effect for drawing long claws is really used well. The best part is probably how the Slenderman himself seems to have all these arms popping out of his body. The blackness of his clothes (or is that part of his skin?) is a great dark touch. He actually reminds me of the Internet group Anonymous. They too are a faceless entity that wears a suit.

His lack of expression allows him to be really terrifying because his actions tell what he's thinking. I think it's cool that the other character is named Masky. The background is great too and gives off all these cool effects. It shows how good you are for making authentic stuff on regular paper. It really shows off your skills as an artist.

My introduction

I was introduced in the Slender Man simply because he was a popular character on the Internet. I will have to say this may be the least of the drawings you have made. I guess it doesn't help that I know nothing about this character. In fact, in terms of the Slenderman Mythos, I really don't know anyone except the title character. This still had its good points especially with how good the shading turned out to be. Is this person supposed to be a monster like the Slenderman?

I guess it's probably just makeup. What I wanted to see in this was some tension being built up. It just seems like too much of a mundane picture from a person like you. It seems like it would have been better to maybe put in the Slenderman in the background or have the character go into some dark corridor. At least you're consistent with those claw hands.

Just fantastic!

Dude, you are simply one of those people who can never do wrong with an art piece! This is absolutely fantastic because there is so much detail put into everything. You seriously must have the most messed up dreams to come up with stuff like this. I think the thing that makes this so effective is how the faces are black and white. It's almost as if they are crying out to be surrounded by the color around them. Some of the faces are similar and they are all yelling out in pain.

It's like this colorless mounds of flesh are just melting everywhere. Even the rainbow colors in the background have a dark overtune to them. Everything is just twisting around into this mad world of color and lack of. If Bill Hicks was a painter, he would probably come up with dark stuff like this. The faces seem to even be draining down to the bottom.

Dark and interesting

This was an extremely elaborate piece because it was just so frightening. I guess it was supposed to be a metaphor for how men are different from women. Both of their brains seem to be missing to show how foolish they have been. The man's face is particularly well done because he still keeps his tongue and neck bones even though he misses his lower jaw. I love the blood stain the woman gives him to show how he has been tainted. Whatever the metaphor, this was nice to look at.

There are just so many features in this. The best is probably the little red dots that are hard to see at first, but appear more obvious later. I also liked the colors and shadings produced by the blue parts that appear to be drops of water on the canvas. Every part of their bodies that does exist is drawn realistically. Let us not make this nightmare a reality.

DeadOnStudios responds:

brainless indeed :P.... Thanks for the comment, I like how you noticed that they both were missing the tops of their heads, it is a metaphor inside a metaphor :)

Four hours?!

Well, I have no idea how this got its name but what I do know is that this art piece is absolutely fantastic! The most awesome thing was how there was just so much detail put into everything! It might have used some color, but that's pretty much it in terms of flaws. I just had so much fun trying to make out every single design that was in this! This is the kind of thing where you can look at it over and over and find new things. There is so much detail put into everything.

The main attraction seems to be a skull with something popping out of its brain. There are also these little happy faces that appear to be on the bottom of that. I think there's some dancing black woman thing on the skull's brain. There's also some weird laughing pig thing with a chef's hat on. Thank you so much for making this masterpiece!
