kernalphage's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[OatlandTrial EP#2 Sleepy]

preloader plz!!

the site does have them available for download.

and animate it?
it's kinda boring...

hunter2009 responds:

yeah, i forgot to put on in, ill go do that and update it. thanks.

[Tank Epic]

very nice...

i've really never gotten anything done in 3ds Max... yours was epic!

not to be the failed magician, revealing all the tricks to the audience, but i gotta ask.... how did you do the explosions? well, i know they're particles, but how did you texture them?
ink 'n'paint works really nice on the tanks :D

can't wait to see more!

thelonelyduck responds:

The explosions were done, like you said, with a particle system (parray) and the texture for them was an Ink and Paint (2 tone) with a falloff shader based on distance from the explosion origin. For the fiery look, I placed a bunch of lights at high intensity (~5) around the base of the explosion and turned down the intensity as the explosion died.

Sorry it that was a little confusing.

CG

[End Bear Dead Bear]

reminds me of "there she is"?

nice. lagged horribly on my computer tho...

and to S-K, the movie looks like it was imported into a program like After-effects or something, to turn it into a bitmap, and you can use imported graphics in flash, it doesn't all have to be vector.

krazykartoons responds:

Thank you for your review.
I'm not animating in Flash anymore...
that's the reason for HUGE SIZE movies, I did use many softwares for the edit and final composite, so what you see isn't vectors. :)

[A Beautiful Life]

crazy good.

tons of great effects...
intresting workflow, but i'd work in the other direction...
(import bones to photoshop, shade, export as .png's and tween 'till done.)

good stuff....

fourchinnigan responds:

I went from Flash into After Effects, not Photoshop.
That would just be crazy 0_0

[Portal : Still Alive]

overused already?

can't really beat the the one by Scott. (of vgcats fame)

nice song choice tho.

Oggy-cheese responds:

I wasn't attempting to beat the one by Scott, as I made this before him, or any of the other 'Still Alive' Flashes, look at the date submitted.

[Ultimate: Mario Vs Sonic]

meh.

the reason it lags is because of all the filter rape...

comedy's not that bad tho.

Wampo responds:

i used filter only in the preloader... i thought it was a bit heavy, too^^

[MS Paint 3D]

utopian as an actual program, i'm afraid..

nice concept, but to get anything beyond a doodle (hence paint i suppose) you'd need some sorta top/side/front 3 drawings for 3d.

(didn't magic pengel do that?)

Monkeycraft responds:

never played Magic Pengel but I've seen the X-play review and it does have a similar idea. thanks for the review
