[Happy Robot day]

For me

This deserve the 15th prize, a car and an airplane in scale. (1:1)

Soupcat responds:

[Hulalaoo's Retarded Mech Squad]

The most intelligent robot of the four

Is at the right, isn't it?

VidGameDude responds:

sadly yes...
Hilarity is key in the heat of battle when fighting the enemy.
but then again, WE AAARE talkin about hula here.

[Pokeplay!]

Right.

Aaaand.. why is this rated A?

(I don't specially like it, I guess it's for the too-vague shape of the characters)

Diives responds:

porque si newgrounds especifica que hay desnudos debo clickearle ahi, y son pokemones verion cuerpo humano desnudos, supongo que por eso :B

[Girl with a scarf]

I don't know why

But those scarfs reminds reminds me of a monster in ragnarok online.. I can't remember which one.. too many years without playing for remembering the name ^^'

I like the drawing, I have little to say against that, maybe you could try to start putting a little of color in it.

Hoboweasel responds:

Thank you. And as for color... I'll start when I get some good prismacolor pencils or something... At the moment it's just me and my pencils and pens.

[Handi]

Well, I guess it's.. cute?

And.. about your drawing skills, do you hate noses? Or wrists? (Just curious)

Diives responds:

Tiene nariz pequeña y los codos estan dentro de sus mangas, es mas el estilo alargado :B

[Comic strip]

The drawing is interesting

But I would really thank that you translate it to english, do us the favor.

Letal responds:

Picture 1: Kelly and Lucy are having a good meal.

Picture 2: The gentle hamster Mr.Bubble comes to visit them.

Picture3: (girl) MOOOOM! My dolls just ate Mr.Bubble!!!!
(mother) But what are you imagining again honey?

[Is Now The Best Time]

I don't get

Why there's always supposed to be gay obssesed memes with every famous videogame or anime male.

Good drawing.

VoicedPAINKILLER responds:

So you only judged based on the fact of what you don't get?
Don't you think that wrong?

[Watch out Auditor]

Oh.. GOD

Someone here need a facial reconstruction pretty speed! Surgeon, bring me the shotgun!

Good but yet a bit.. blurry? Seems done with watercolor.

Rhunyc responds:

Hey thanks for the review. :) And I think it might be blurry because I didn't fine detail a whole lot of anything.. Believe it or not, I just spent a lot of time re-doing this over and over, trying to get different results and seeing what I could come up with. So, it's pretty rushed..

And it's done in photoshop :)

[Rabbit en Vermouth Demiglace]

For God's sake!

You can't just and simply.. put something like that here..there's hungry people in there!

Anyway.. what kind of food for midgets do you cook?

It looks delicious but.. seriously, what kind of midget would be fine with just that tiny piece of a little piece of what I would call food?

Ironchefgriffin responds:

You, my good sir, are a f**kwit.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't get mad at you. It's not that you're an ignorant ass, its just that you're uneducated about this sort of thing.

Allow me to explain why portions are so small at really nice restaurants and the common misconceptions about them:

There are scientific reasons that portions sizes are so small at fine dining restaurants. The first bite of a dish is the most physically and mentally stimulating. The reason that portions are so small in fine dining is to prevent the diner's palate from getting 'bored' of the dish.

In any fine dining restaurant worth their salt, they have lots of courses to a meal (which remedies the small portion sizes). A standard tasting menu usually runs 8 - 15 courses, I've seen them go up to 45!!! This is also one of the reasons for an exorbitant price tag.

Another reason for an exorbitant price tag is the meticulous preparation and level of detail that goes into every dish and the quality level of the ingredients. They just plain cost more to prepare than most restaurants dishes.

I usually like to compare fine dining restaurants to concerts or sporting events. Why go to a concert when you can just buy the CD? Why go to a sporting event when you can watch it at home on your TV? The answer is simple: The experience is leagues different.

You go to a diner to fill up the tank, but going to The French Laundry or any similar fine dining restaurant isn't about getting full. Its about experiencing flavors and textures that you've never seen or tasted before. Fine cuisine can evoke strong emotions and feelings that normal food cant. Its romantic, its exotic, its unusual. You aren't just buying food when you go there, you are buying memories and an experience.

You aren't paying $15 for just a bit of food, you're paying for a piece of art that you can experience will all of your senses.
