GnomeZome's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Skeleton Hands]

A desperation of cloying darkness.
I enjoy how frenetic and unnerving each line is, while still adding to a visual balance.
Thank you for making this.

[[FUTILE EFFORT]]

adorably cursed
I like the action empahsis on the hip swivel being to far, as it help convey the point well.
The chain arm is brutal, and I like that it is semi obscured making it more of a lurking terror, maybe some motion lines to imply it is twitching(?) but I think the pooling blood is quite good.
the color pallet is incredible dark in it's yellow and reds and the consistency of it helps build the tunnel vision effect of the boarders encroaching darkness.
Thank you for making this.

ToastieTV responds:

Thanks! you should definitely check out the original creator of the character @MeltdownAstral

[Blade]

I like the converse like shoes in this piece.
in previous renditions you have opted for bulkier modern nike like sneakers and more traditional sandals but I think trying the red converse coming back from "Rooster Jump" just looks very slick.
I think it pairs well with the red of the undershirts and the dull red of the scabbard, giving a small but potent hint of intensity in the calmer green and black of the design.
Not that this piece is subtle in intensity, and I really enjoy the compliment of her eyes wide and the leer of her aura.
Thank you for making this.

[Opposites wolves]

Romulus and Remus, perhaps?
I like the contrast you went for in this piece, the gap between the tiles is an interesting choice for framing.
Thank you for making this

FTerracciano responds:

Thank you for your words,no,the two wolves are not Romulus and Remus but the balance and opposites of the good and e il,night and day,White or black and female and male.

[Kermit Armor Concept 1 (daily drawing #4)]

Herr Kermit the frog.
Very fun, I really like the way you use the green in this makes me wonder if it's a bronze kind of armor or the copper elements rusted in such a way to stylistically be green.
Thank you for making this

ElCatrinLCD responds:

im really glad you like it, as i said, i have another 2 "improved" desigs that i will redraw later on.
As for the question....i have no idea, in not very well versen in coloring armor aside from gold gilded one (the quicksilver thing with gold) so it may just be decorative paint that does comes from copper patina.

[Nyx into Dreams...]

Hah!
This piece definitely tops the cross overs I didn't know I needed list.
You put an appreciable effort into blending the design elements of the two sources, which the similar color pallet does help, but I think your choices within the blending of the clothing designs and proportions is thoughtful.
Also I like the darker pallet you went with, as little things like the "white" right glove is actually a light lavender helps lay the shadows.
Thank you for making this.

[art trade]

Hmmm, fun!
I like the visual contrast of the poofy pants/loose suspenders against halter top/thin torso, along with the color contrast of the pink vs black top and hair and gray eyes.
The slight shadow about the feet is an interesting way of using light and shadow to build a sense of background space/depth.
Thank you for making this.

[Wolfdog]

Fun.
I really appreciate your wolf motif in your pieces.
In any case, I really like how the woodgrain works as hair pattern, and how you used the outer pencil finish to distinguish outline and musculature.
Also for a piece where you only have so much control of the medium I appreciate your dedication to perspective/scale.
Thank you for making this.

FTerracciano responds:

I sincerely thank you for your words, in fact these compositions made with the peels of tempered mattes that I also use to make collages and drawings require a lot of attention and precision to ensure that the work appears as you see it now.

[Siren Head]

oph! intense!
The gum line and teeth are aptly offputting, as well as the distended musculature and 6 fingered hand.
The Lofi/bi-lighting background is an interesting touch, it adds a sense of unreality, especially in the fleeting twilight.
Thank you for making this.

[In focus]

Uh oh Ohio.
I appreciate how cereal this piece is.
Thank you for making this.
