Fro's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Goomba's Last Moments]

~ Review Request Club ~

Wow, this is the first art review that I've written in quite awhile. Let's see how rusty I am.

The title is great because with the shadow you can tell someone (Mario I'm assuming?) is above him ready to finish him off. The shadow of what I assume is Mario looks very good and the shadow of the Goomba is also very nice.

The color of the floor looks rather good. I think you used a good combination of colors as they all seem to go together quite well. You also used good colors in the Goobma itself.

I do think that the lines that you used in the Goomba did look alright because it gave him a very cartoonish type of feeling, but I also think that you should have cut the thickness of the black line down a bit to make it seem a little more neater.

Overall it is done pretty well. Good use of colors and shadows. I do think the lines in the Goomba could be a bit thinner though.

Cool thanks, I did want a cartoonish cute look for the goomba. They always get portrayed as a generic enemy.

I'm almost lost for words when I look at this simply because my brain can't even comprehend the massive amount of beauty that I'm looking at. I know that I use that word a lot when reviewing your stuff, but this time I really really mean it. (I meant it before as well :P)

The color used, shapes, etc... just the mixture of the thing as a whole is really awesome. Again, it almost looks like the mixture of something that I would see under water, but at the same time in space. Just unexplainable feelings when looking at this.

Thank you!

I love art that draws you in and provokes an emotional response so I am always overjoyed when my art gets that reaction. I'm glad you like it!

Very beautiful in fact. I love the picture itself. The dark background with the lighter colors you used left it up to the imagination of what exactly it could be. Assuming it's an explosion of some sort the first thought that comes to mind would be some sort of special high tech firework that has went off, but the oddest thing about it would be the sky isn't there as there isn't any glow off of what would be the explosion or the colors of the light.

The second thing I think of is some sort of odd creature in the deepest parts of the ocean that man could never visit or get down that far to see with their own eyes. There the glow wouldn't even be apparent because of the total lack of light the darkness would completely cover up any extra light. Could also be something you'd expect to see in space.

On the very extremes (especially the top right hand corner) it reminds me of some pictures that I once took in a graveyard where strings of light and energy were appearing from a nearby gravestone. (Ghost/Supernat. Club needs to be bumped ;) sometime)

So like I said, very beautiful. Leaves a lot for the person to decide for themselves and just looks awesome all around.

EchoRun responds:

I'm glad you liked the 'ghostly' aspect of this, that is one of the thing I have found beautiful in this one, combined with the firework look.

Thank you. :)

This is done very well indeed. Great color, pretty good detail, etc.. I rather enjoyed the colors that you used in this submission and loved that you actually put things like fish in the background.

I think it could have used more more thing in the background. Perhaps some wildlife on the ocean floor there on the middle/left side of the picture or something like an old sunken anchor. Maybe even something like an old sunken boat or ship in the background as well.

Thank you.

Everyone seems to be agreeing on the same few problems, so I'll definitely work on those.

I know I figured out that you must be an alt account a long time ago, but god more and more that I see your stuff and your posts it makes me think of it even more. O.o

It's a good idea for a drawing, but not done very well at all. First off the white background could probably stay as it is, but it might be nice to have something more detailed in the background. Let's say the white background works good though and we'll move on to some other things.

Drawings weren't done very well. I can tell that they are getting older as they go, but they just aren't drawn well. Perhaps you could have used a base picture for the head, something that's shaped like an actual human head, and then went off from there. It's a start, I don't think it would really make it much better, but it couldn't hurt.

you know i am not a alt why did you think so?

I see the point, but I don't think it was carried out very well. I know you want people to see it for themselves, but I think it isn't obvious enough. Perhaps making it a little bit more obvious, but not too much to make it stick out too much could make this better in my opinion.

I also see that you are trying to make this like it's in the sky, but I think that could have been shown a tad bit better with different color usage. More colors that you would see when you look up into a sky in the morning when the sun is first coming out. Sorry I didn't enjoy your piece that much.

Yes. You are right.

Yes, sounds like a broken record, but this submission is much better if viewed in Full Size. As a regular picture it doesn't look like anything great, but when viewed at full size it looks quite good.

My overall thought of this is that it looks pretty cool all around. There are a lot of spots that leave it up to people's imaginations to tell exactly what they see in the piece of art. I would like to mention though that I didn't like how the one part of the picture (around the left side) seemed whited out. Didn't seem very fitting to me at all.

Oh. Well. Thanks for that!
