Phronemophobia's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dusty]

It looks fine to me, but I seldom draw, and I certainly know little about shading. I suppose if I had ever taken an art class that wasn't the catch-all mandatory course I might have learned something more substantial than how to draw an empty soda can and paint using only shades of a single color.

A chewed-off ear, a prominent facial wart, dark rings under the eyes, different-sized feet turned in the wrong directions... what is the inspiration for this unfortunate-looking character?

Fabulous-fishstick42 responds:

There is an artist who goes by Woodedwoods and they draw some of the creepiest, but also cutest characters. I was inspired to attempt a similar concept in my odd way of drawing things.

[SYLVEON fanart]

I will admit that you made a great argument with this drawing, because it is extremely adorable and I want to hug that plump Pokemon so badly, but I still maintain my stance on Flareon being the cutest, fuzziest and warmest Eeveelution.

ScribbleFix responds:

Awww hahah thanks! :D i love flareon! Perhaps I should draw that one next in this style :P

[Happy Pixel Day]

I'm sure somebody will post their celebratory piece a month from now, so a day late is nothing. Does this individual have a new? A backstory? An NES console and a functioning copy of Bubble Bobble to sell to me for cheap? ...or is this just something fun you wanted to whip up for the NG holiday?

Fabulous-fishstick42 responds:

Just something fun and quick. With characters I draw, I get bored with having the same ones over and over. I feel like I should start writing backstories for some of them though. I need to get better about that....

[Simpson's little shop of horrors]

Wait, so, Audrey II has a butthole?

machinehead81 responds:

All that food she eats has to go somewhere.

[Uganda Knuckles]

To better emphasize the joke, you should have depicted a small tribe of the red and blue varieties, since it kinda requires a group of them to properly recreate the meme, and possibly included their leader commander Gaztons, because I've seen him in many of the videos. With only a single, chubby Knuckles, this could just as well be about all those Knuckles Sings videos, rather than VRChat.

Outside of that, he looks great. Seems happy, well fed, and fully knowledgeable on "de way."

CrispyToastYT responds:

Oh shoot, you're right...!

[Natsuki]

I always enjoy bright colors, but I don't know much about any of the girls.
I'm guessing I should play this at some point, huh?

Fabulous-fishstick42 responds:

It is quite an enjoyable game. The beginning is a bit slow, but after day 2 it really starts to pick up.

[Razzelle]

A straightforward drawing. Nothing really stands out. Makes me think of Amethyst.

Since she's not facing forward, it seems weird for the trio of freckles on the left cheek to be so close to the mouth when the right trio isn't. Granted, freckles are not realistically symmetrical on a person's face, but if Razz were to be looking straight at me, would they still be in their same spots with one patch right against her mouth?

Bertn1991 responds:

Both sets of freckles were original close to the mouth. I moved one but forgot to move the other. It's been corrected ^u^

[My Face]

Madness? Why, that's the magic of winter break! *throws glitter around the place, then groans at the realization that he'll be the one having to clean up the mess afterwards*

I want to see more art that has you and your characters doing something to better showcase your/their personality and hobbies. We all know the Fishstick is Fabulous, but it's just as important to know why the Fishstick is Fabulous.

Fabulous-fishstick42 responds:

Glitter truly is the herpes of the craft world. As for doing more with characters, there is a character I wrote named Becky, who I have made skits with on my YouTube, who I've been planing on making one or two panel comics with. Tell me what you think.

[Map of Far Land]

Man, look at the territory on Moleberry! I know size doesn't matter, but wow!

Oh, and seeing Maya in the middle of those four is just... well, it ain't right. I'm not complaining, of course, but it does make me wonder if it's okay to give this artwork an E rating?

Regardless, I'm gonna need a cold shower now. Thank you, Bertn, for this carnal creation of cartography.

Bertn1991 responds:

Yep, Moleberry's mighty mighty, just lettin' it all hang out. And yeah, Maya is such a hussy. It really should be rated T, at least.

And no, thank YOU for taking something as mild and boring as a map and making me smile ^.^

[Christmas with Lady Marleen]

Marleen's adorable, but I would like to see the entire band together for the holidays.

Bertn1991 responds:

Ah, you're right. Maybe I should make a follow up for New Years and feature all four of them :)
