Horseleaf's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[It Flies Yet]

This is probably the coolest piece of pro-trans art I've seen. Love the message, love the art itself.

[Yoko]

Gurren Lagann will always be up there as one of my favorites.
Super cute rendition of Yoko, by the by

[bounded]

I'll always love the look of a face or mask being partially shrouded in shadow. That, and the look of wispy shadows. Awesome spooky vibe

[Waiting For The End]

Can't help but think of the lyrics for Architect's Memento Mori--
"It's a promise that you cannot break; was your life worth dying for?"

That said, love how this has the sort of angsty vibe that would've perfectly fit an early 2000s album cover. I'm kind of a sucker for that style

[#18: OMGWTFBBQBM]

I like a lot of forms of metal, even some forms of black metal--but yeah... I'm definitely with the dark-haired bloke on this one.

handofdog responds:

Yeah, I can be picky but as long as it sounds good, I don't really care. A lot of subgenres calling themselves black metal are really stretching it, though.

[heart not real]

Good god, the composition here is stunning.

[Maggie and the Ferocious Beast]

Now here's a show I haven't thought about in decades. I probably would've continued to forget about it--but that old patch of neurons in my head immediately fired up as soon as I saw your rendition of the Ferocious Beast. Hot damn

SolidSnakeOnAPlane responds:

Thanks for your kind words

[Ruins]

I would love to explore a level like this.
I'm guessing that's lava--or blood---but the glowing crimson is an aesthetic that I love for environments. Kinda makes me think of the Sanguine Sea (and the adjacent level, Castle Le Fanu) from Lunacid.

[Hamas]

Yeah, this pretty on the nose. Well done, mate.
Obviously Hamas has committed their own crimes---especially with the Oct. 7th attack.
But Netanyahu has proven to be a goddamned psychopath with the overuse of force against not only Palestine--but also Lebanon and Iran.
Even with my distaste for Iran's goverment---this shit has gone too far.
Netanyahu and his cohorts are just as bad as Vladimir Putin, in my eyes. They need to be fucking stopped, and I hate how the USA is complicit with Israel's war crimes.
