GnomeZome's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Batman!]

A very, "WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?" pose.
I like how you translated the ball joint dynamics from the model to the piece, and the "baman and piderman" vibes of this.
The light purple was a nice choice of background/framing as the light lilac is some how complementary and clashing with the deep blues and grays you used for the knight.
Thank you for making this.

MoonieLoonie responds:

Thank you! ^-^

[Monkey]

To be of some slight help "monkeh" is a recent meme based of the idea of "stop being human, return to monkey" in the vein of Absurdism.
Like what you did with the bricks, especially some of the balance work you used this and your other pieces.
Thank you for making this.

FTerracciano responds:

Thank you,in these moments are important be to be less human and more apes because animals don't wage war unlike us humans ...

[[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

[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.

[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.

[The End]

A literal expression of the mortal coil, yeah?
I appreciate the sketchy style and how smothering the darkness is in the piece.
Thank you for making this.

TankTheta responds:

Yeah pretty much.
I probably should of added a touch more detail, but I wanted to evoke a barely visible look to it, as if the darkness is all that remains, at the end of time.
You're welcome mate. I want to make more surreal dark art, I enjoy doing stuff like this. And I appreciate the comment (Sorry for the late reply haha)

[Head snarling wolf]

"Cave Canem"
I do enjoy how much you experiment and keep making new things with all these mediums.
Thank you for making this.

FTerracciano responds:

Thanks to you for your words, in fact I know that saying and the mosaic you shared (you know, I'm originally from Pompeii), my goal as I recently said is to create works with different materials unlike common techniques such as digital and others.

[Nico Robin Hana Hana]

Hmmm otherworldly.
I like the light cherry blossom motif in the background, and green to blue color shift you use on Robin is reminiscent of the Final Fantasy logos.
Also the sense of depth and the poise you where able to create with the amazingly rendered hand are commendable.
Thank you for making this.

HardKoba responds:

I actually was thinking of the Final Fantasy logos in the later stage of this piece lol
And the hands were a nightmare but they came out well thankfully
Thank you for the nice words :)

[Potato Tia and Potato Twi]

Very cute.
It makes me wonder if one could Frankenstein some pony parts on a spud, by way of mr potato head sensibilities.
In any cause, this is clearly the future Faust would have wanted.
Thank you for making this.

CutePencilCase responds:

There's actually a very cursed rarity potato head produced by Hasbro
Unfortunately they have stopped making them
