GnomeZome's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Muzzle]

She's so neat!
Love the pun of the name, and shifting mode arm canon is really cool.
I think it's smart design to have the red gun gauntlet (prosthetic?) be a distinct color from her brown fur and green and black clothes.
With the art fight shenanigans, I am not sure if this is your OC or your fan art of an OC, but in any case, I think you did great.
Thanks for making this.

DonCroco responds:

You don't draw your ocs in Art Fight, you draw other people's. This is SodaVampyr's oc.
I get why ppl from outside can find the whole thing a bit confusing though.
I think she would have appreciated the feedback :]

[Kezia]

Awesome!
What a super dynamic pose, and I can really get a sens of momentum from the trailing energy and fragmentation.
I kinda think the peach-ish color is an odd choice of background, as a green might make it pop a little more, but the pallet of the subject is really good in it's yellows' and blues.
Also notable is the the shadow work that ques up nicely with the "casting" and the over all sense of motion.
I think most of all the intensity of the eyes, ever so wide, looking over the sweeping arm, is something I will remember for how cool it is.
Thank you for making this.

[Yet more Ocean]

What a solemn moment.
The ocean feels like a place where things start, and a place where things meet there end, and I feel you capture that here.
You also did great work with using the dyncamics of light and shadow with the moon as the source to frame her quite will, especially the defiant tuft of red in the gray blues/greens.
Thanks you for making this.

[[Crossover || Kill La Spider]]

Oh this is hilarious.
Remind me a little of the art project of posing hawk-eye in female superhero poses.
I think you choose two great characters that have a similar contrast across the two stories, especially with Ohara's dramatics and Brown's frenetic energy.
I can see you where putting some highlights around Brown's Scissor, kinda like his instrument in the movie, but I think you could push that further and still maintain the reference to both.
Final thoughts, love the reference to the Ohara's elevator pose, and the accurate call that Brown would maintain a happy trail.
Thank you for making this.

[Shiva]

Nice Flow
I really like the interplay of contrasts in your pallet, with the framing of the bright white, and the subtle definition of the darker colors all helping to make reds glow like coals in a hearth.
I also really like the general sense of motion, with the dutch angel like perspective, and the flow of the white around her. but still centered her with her hair suffusing into the background colors.
Her features seem a little over emphasized, but not in a way that doesn't work for the piece, and would be pretty standard in a fashion magazine, and works to give her a bit of enthralling fey vibe.
Thank you for making this!

[pencil]

The good will gold frame really sells it.
I love the intensity you can get from pencil and the obvious energy of all the lines working together, becoming a forest of intention.
I appreciate the depth you put into the piece, really makes it feel like I could fall into the eye sockets and never be seen again.
Thank you for making this.

[Pearl]

I really like how angular you went here!
Even the shadow work, the back ground, and her pupils all have a similarly directed angle, which really give a sense of poise.
I also like the very simple pallet you went with, along with the perpendicular sparkles.
It all works very well, because after all, for a pearl, she sure is a square.
heh.
Thank you for making this.

[relationship chart]

Hmmm, neat
These could certainly make some neat pin or buttons I bet.
I like the way you gave each of them a unique pallet that balances the rest.
I think seeing them as mock up trading cards with stats, and abilities like "Hyper" "Boastful" "Cunning" & "Watchful" would been neat in your design sensibilities.
Thank you for making this.

[Gardevoir & Aegislash fusion]

Really neat design!
I like the way you integrated the colors, and made the usual start white more of a steel grey, along with the intensity of the purple in the eyes.
Also the changing of the head crest to resemble a helm, the pointed shoulder pads, and the hewing of the chest blade to a wicked sharpness all really works to set a distinct martial appearance,
Thank you for making this.

[painting practice]

Fierce!
I like what you did to render a sense of depth,along with the intensity of the musculature.
Also I really enjoy the way you helped build a lack of focus to build depth by using shading and a shift in the pallet.
It's also very neat how you where able to set up a line of sight we can't even see from her eyes and over her hand she is using to aim.
Thank you for making this.
