GnomeZome's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[drunkdog]

Drunk dogs wag no tails.
I feel like I have run into this energy at parties.
I really appreciate the kind of lack ainside.
way of taking off their shoes coming inside.
The pallet has some solid summer tones it, and the simpler sketches have a pink elephants on parade vibe to it.
Thank you for making this.

[Noriko]

Hmmm, dragging up VHS memories for me, are you?
In any case I think you did well with the character, keeping the balance of recognizable but skiing into your own style.
But yeah Gunbuster was wild, and I love the scene where she marches out in a bounce, poses and yells at some bullies in robots.
It makes sense with Hideaki and the rough edges he puts into his characters.
But anyways, if you like tights and muscles I recommend history s strongest disciple manga.
Any ways keep up the great work, the things you make alwatlys have a great tone.
Thank you for making this.

[Nerds Unzipped! 18+ (comic pages 1-10)]

Hey this looks fun!
Be sure to update your NG profile with a link to this.
It seems pretty flirty and cool and I appreciate the struggle of "being a nerd but not that nerd" as a struggle.
It can be hard to know how to wear those kinda labels, and what they mean to us.
I am looking forward to more, and bookmarked the comic as well.
Thank you for making this.

TrishaPickle responds:

thank you so much! I wanted to make something that was flirty and fun! there will be more coming! I have about 22 more pages planed for this story but they take me a bit to draw! ill be posting it here and on my website as well!

[Twin Horns]

Oooooh this is fun!
I would like to think with the two smaller characters being off balance in nature has lead them to learn a spinning motion way o moving that optomises their heavy side swining to move their weight.
Heck you already made one of each of their legs a fine top, and because the have martial air to their design, i can really imagine them doing 360 swing haymakers and such.
It would be if in the separate forms they also had semi distinct fighting styles that work well when fused.
So like if Sable did Capoeira, which works well with their cocky smile, and Ivory specialized in using their opponent's weight against them like Judo or Bagua which works well with their more withdrawn countenance.
figuring out how to balance the two styles could be a really solid character arch, and possibly good fodder for physical comedy, but in any case, i really like it, and I appreciate the monochrome vibes of blue.
Thank you for making this.

Corromon responds:

Yknow I recently learned what Capoeira is so that would be pretty fun to draw em doing sometime.

But in all serious nice work.
It's a strong mix of cartoonish sensibility and solid musculature and figure.
I also like the rough pop of of the neon lime against the pink yellow red of Erica.
Thank you for making this.

[Shadows]

Some nice Lady Nyx vibes.
I like the wavy quality of the penumbral edges, especially with how you managed to angle the pose so that her upper bust shoulder and pale face make for a moon like circle.
It's a very strong way to focus the piece, and really show of the effort you put into the eye shadow.
Speaking of which, did you make the eye shadow that lovely to match with shadowy aestheic, and if so that makes me smile a bit.
Thank you for making this.

[Abandoned code]

Oh that is really funky!
It's extremely atmospheric and has an odd sense natural/artificial corruption, like a digital fungus.
Visuals like this remind me of a really odd mixed media film called "we are the strange", and with your inspirations I think you would really like it

and the movie is available from the creator on youtube;

excited to heat more about your film!
Thank you for making this.

[performing artist plague doctor]

I am tentatively calling that this outfit will be a Halloween hit this year.
I like this alot, and find it to quite endearing in it's dark humor.
I would be interested to see how a mask with a very long hook to the snout might temporarily obscure a set of juggled objects behind it, as they circle behind it, hand to hand.
I suppose another doctor juggling morning stars, or maybe pestles (mortar and pestle), and a doctor with a kendama style stethoscope?
In any case I really appreciate your use of lower count animation to make the motion seem mechanical and practiced, it is a hard needle to thread.
Thank you for making this.

4thNoah responds:

thank you.
the vision would be similar to a old gas mask biside of the pointy end get in the way of object you tryint to catch if you turn you head to look at it.

[untitled stuff]

Skulking.
This feels like a really atmospheric traditional scene, where the figure is escaping an ambush or some such.
There is too much tension, and haste for it to be simple scouting, not with that gleam of fear in the quick glances.
This might actually make a great loading screen between levels of platformer, with the bounciness.
Thank you for making this.

[Strawberry Cutie]

Oh this is so snappy!
It is really cool how you laid out the ensemble like that.
I also like how candid the model for this piece seems to be, as it such a focused look her looking so relaxed really helps sell it.
I appreciate you work on the fabrics and textures as well, as you put a lot of thought into how they hang and rumple here and there.
Thank you for making this.

MellonSnow responds:

That means a lot! Thank you!!
So glad you mentioned the folds in the fabrics cause i've been wanting to improve on that haha <3
Thank you so much for your kind words.
