Phronemophobia's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Gerhalt Day 10]

Absolute perfection. That's it. Nothing else to add.

[Karna Day 14]

She got that koala nose going on, and the expression seems too serious for a girl who angrily calls people "snot noses" for not choosing her.

[Bleu Day 11]

Hugs and headpats for baby Bleu. Joined too late to the game, but loved all the same.

[Balbaroy Day 13]

Best boy Balbaroy! Not a great fighter, but he does his best, and that's all that matters!

[Domingo Day 15]

Odd to see a somewhat sharper look to the relatively soft design of Domingo, but I think it works rather well. Nicely done, Tis.

[Lemon Day 12]

Geshp ~ "Ah yes. The Red Baron! You know why his armor is red? Because he spilled fruit punch on it at the last banquet! Mwa ha ha ha... wait, that's not intimidating at all. Meh, I'll just tell the Shining Force it's the blood of his fallen enemies or whatever."

[TiSRematch]

There's certainly better detail in the 2021 version, but what really stands out is that while the original feels a little more expressive, both pictures kind of visualize your own artistic growth in a more subtle manner. Notice how 89 looks up and seems uneasy at the sight of a minotaur who has its chest puffed out and that pupil-less, godlike intimidation going for him in the sixteen-year-old image as opposed to the new one where 89 has a more rigid, confident stance while staring at a monster. It may still be towering over him (there's always more to learn) but the experience 89 has gained since 2005 provides a new outlook that makes his original difficulties with drawing seem silly nowadays.

I might be thinking too much about this, Tis.

Tisbore responds:

That was really deep.. lol. Thanks for commenting buddy!

[i drew myself (or at least, an idealized version)]

You got that uncomfortable-looking smile people wear when they can "feel" the judging eyes of others upon them are waiting anxiously for the reaction. If this is your "idealized" self-portrait, then you gotta appear more self-confident about yourself... unless, of course, that's how you naturally are all the time. If that's the case, then nevermind what I just typed. I, for example, always look like I'm tired or unhappy, regardless of how I actually am or feel. Some are just like that.

Amydillo responds:

I usually look tired but uhh, the rest wasn't really what I was goin for lol, I think you might be inferring a bit too much there. I was more goin for more of a smug kinda feel, ya know?

[old vinesauce drawing from when he did the minecraft streams]

Never seen vinesauce outside of a few recommended videos from YT years ago, but is he the one who inspired the Grand Dad memes on SiIvaGunner?

Amydillo responds:

it was vinesauce joel who first made the grand dad meme, this is vinesauce vinny. they're both absolutely fantastic though and i'd recommend you watch em both!

[girl gamer]

It took me a moment to realize that was a wide-open mouth and chin on that individual, rather than a cute, big-nosed face with a tiny smile pointing at you. It makes more sense considering the statement, but I'm still a bit saddened by it. As for what you did with the image, that's just delightfully whimsical.

Amydillo responds:

ahaha i totally should've done that!! and thanks, i appreciate it. i try to do whimsical when i can
