GnomeZome's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Damn Hexside Delinquents...]

Fight-o!
I was thinking that one of them could have the bleach blonde you see in some Yankees, but it made me realize that a huge part of their character designs are their hairshape/color and what clothes they consistently wear, and it would be practical to only change one to keep the character's clear.
Great work on the shoes, especially luz's doc marten's, and you really had fun with the Yankee style.
I would say willow looks really tall in her frame, but her build does look like one that has alot of room for growth, and lends it self to jokes like "willow popped up like a beanstalk" which makes sense as all the character look maybe 2-3 older, still kids, just now definitely "teenagers with attitude".
Thank you for making this

[bar bun e]

This has odd vibe to it.
With on side being blues and purples and the other more red and oranges it reminds me a little bit of the "did you drop the gold ax or the silver ax" proverb.
In any case your work on the lighting is great, both in the details of how you cast the shadows and the over all tone of the piece.
Thank you for making this
(Edit, oh it spooky, but I felt that was not needing comment)

thank u, i was going for a spookier vibe tbh

[Dark Magician Girl [RETRO]]

Interesting
It's fun seeing some Cutie Hunny/Salior Moon style on Dark Magician Girl.
I have been enjoying seeing you play around with the CRT style in a few pieces, and like the way you captured the head on poise she takes here, and as always you know how to make the eyes do a lot of work in a piece.
Thank you for making this

[Rework - Domino]

I really love the background work on this!
it reminds me of a painting technique where you use a sponge to stamp paint on a wall, and I think cutting the sponge to be in the shape of a domino could be really cool.
As for your render of Domino the person I am very enamored with the sense of motion you convey with the dynamic poise, and the gun trail made by the fire arch of the pistol.
I think the way you connected the muzzles flares was very meat, and works really well with how you made her own sight line so obvious and well framed under the fire arch.
Thank you for making this.

[PINK]

Awesome
I like the monochromatic focus of this compilation piece, it's a nice way to present a theme to gathering of diverse character and styles.
Also the way that you intergrated pinks into pallet is very clever, having all the skin tones be a bit peachy, and for example, alot of the white in zelda's clothing is a warm purple.
Finnally alot of the character's have a sparkle effect, and I noted how you made sure each of those effects is styled to match them or their setting, so neat.
Thank you for making this.

[Man...]

amazing mood,
It's an interesting contrast to have the more abstract beach, sea and sky, then motion blurred, with fox unobscured.
It's feels like a moment of deep thought, about to be broken.
I can't tell if this is early morning light, or deep evening, but I like the light level choice.
Thank you for making this.

Toonar-XII responds:

i'm very flattered.

[Reminiscing]

Hmmmmm.
I like the way you use your work to muddle the boundaries of wholesome humanity and body horror.
It's interesting seeing what might seem monstrous find it's own slice of normal, in the tans and browns.
The cross hatching also work well as a filler because of the implied darkness/dirtiness they place.
Thank you for making this.

ScribbltyHibblty responds:

Thank you! Whenever I make a creature I try to add some touch of humanity to it, and it fills me with joy whenever people pick up on it :)

[Corgis]

Corgi!
They certainly have a fae touched aspect to them.
It looks you did a very soft initial pallet then put a very nice watercolor like shade filter with some floral patterns, and it all quite neat.
Thank you for making this.

DantonSlip responds:

Hi! I don't put a watercolor filter on it. I just setted up a brush to have approvimatively the same feeling. :) Thanks for your feedback!

[BB Pokémon concepts]

1 to 151
I am a big fan of Bulbasaur, and the very steampunk pokeball nature of his containder, but the mew us quite eyecatching, in a "carried by Norman Redus through the apocalypse" kinda way.
The hoses and air bubbles are a nice touch.
Thank you for making this.

[lighthouse]

lighthouse keepers have gone mad for less.
There was actually a lighthouse near where i grew up that looked a bit like this.
I like the design, and the color choice reminds me a fond way of MS clip art.
Thank you for making this.
