GnomeZome's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[King Godzilla]

I read that as "gravy breath," and now I dearly wish for a gravy boat in the shape of Godzilla's maw.
yeah it will look like the atomic and terrible lizard is puking, but you can not help what the heart wants.
I really love how frenetic this piece is, and it looms magnificently.
While I would adore a little more effort on the scale pattern I am still very impressed.
Thank you for making this.

SpaceDragon14 responds:

Thank you, it's nothing but a merely painted sketch, took like an hour, didn't really put much effort

[Peridot]

"oh Wow, that's really cool." me right now, out loud.
I really love how interesting the contrast you rendered between the subtle hard edges and the overall smooth look this makes it all pop.
Also I am very impressed by the color pallet working so effectively to draw the center of attention to peridot.
The little details like the background and the limb enhancers (great work on those) makes it feel just a little more real, and it very impressive to see that two forefinger make the control panel projection, as evident by the missing digits of the left hand.
Thank you for making this.

Weskgon responds:

I'm glad you like it.

[Evil portrait]

hmmm, interesting monster potential!
Like it could drain years from a character in almost Dorian grey fashion, and if the back side was a mirror that reflected magic back, it could be quite and encounter.
Maybe this fiend more a cursed frame, and it victims become it's portrait?
In any case, clever choice of using the drapery as prehensile limbs, but also making it match the figure in the portrait, which makes also visual good vibes but also give the sense of them reaching out. also conflicting the blur with the stern brassy frame is fine contrast, and quite eye catching.
Thank you for making this.

Gekasso responds:

Thanks! The idea was the ghost is trapped inside the portrait, so the only thing he can do is levitate the portrait and use the curtains as limbs to attack people.
I love to draw monsters concept art in case one day I'll find a way to make my own game.

[Ded Bussines]

hmmm, reminds me of the phrase "they fell into a dead sprint"
I don't exactly know what a dead sprint is, but it defeintely echos of something old, and primal, and quite terrible indeed.
I like the little skeleton pals too, the remind me of Mic and Hun from victor and valentino/Aztec faith.
Thank you for making this.

ambre-e responds:

thankyou for taking your time giving it a look really appreciate when some one enjoys it :D you are right i took a bit of inspiration from them :3

[Bigmail]

certainly putting the "lots" in lots of love.
One of the books from the borrowers series had a wonderful idea of using stamps as framed portraits, or at least some related art did.
I really adore how simple this is, it makes me smile.
Thank you for making this.

ZeTrystan responds:

Someone else told be about the framed stamps! I do think it's the wonderful idea. :D

[Ptriple-Dactyl]

A "tri-ptero-tops" I suppose?
Reminds me of the chaos of dial H for hero's chaotic power set.
Also solid choice on the stretchy purple hulk pants.
Thank you for making this.

jouste responds:

I had an old issue of dial H for Hero. I remember it being so strange but yeah the watch devices were there. thanks for the kind words and comment!

[Spooky fish]

"Am I a joke to you?"
"Well you are a clown."
".....We will see who is a clown!"
- "Finding Revenge" Pixar 20XX
Suitably spooky!
I love the ethereal reach of the gray sea anemone, especially how you rendered it such a sooty fashion.
I also love the back story, it adds alot, without distracting.
Thank you for making this.

DanFromBavaria responds:

Thanks! Also "Finding Revenge", lmao!

[Mita & Rob]

"Whoa this is coool~" -Me, out loud, when I first saw this full piece.
It's interesting because sometimes a really development and design sketch impresses me way more than a fully painted canvas.
Maybe it's because it more raw and unguarded intentions of the artists, or it's just the innate eagerness of look forward to the possibility of eventually polished and perfected piece, fleshing out the bones.
I am very impressed by how readily you conveyed both of their personalities, but also how clever you where in contrasting them in height, pigment, experience and gear.
With that said, you can also see how they compliment each other as part of a team, and giving them both different equipment hewn from the same chitinous armor is subtle marking of alliance.
Thank you for making this.

TheTenk responds:

Thank you for the thorough response!

[Phosphophyllite]

"Keep Your Hands Off Lustrous"
The dramatic pose and nicely busy background give this a very similar vibe to the opening of "
Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken", which is a series I heartily recommend, but try not to watch it all in one day.
A final note on the background, was it intentional to have it resemble fletching?
I know Phosphophyllite and her fellows often have arrows sent there way, so it's a bit menacing in that sense.
Thank you for making this.

SkyHawkins responds:

Thanks for your review!
I watched Eizouken while it was airing, in fact. The opening definitely served as inspiration.
And as for the background, the arrow pattern was intentional. Good eye!

[Wood Birdy]

Oh that is so cool!
The woods to dark for it, but this ripe for a joke about balsa wood gliders.
I love the details, you put in, it really made the piece have a lot of depth, and it's just gorgeous.
Way to flex on a commission.
Thank you for making this.

SizzulReal responds:

Thanks for saying~!
