Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mario]

I freaking love this! It reminds me of those "untoon" pictures I see a lot. What makes this better than those is because it's nowhere near as scary! I'm just impressed you managed to make this without looking too frightening. Then again, that may have not been your goal. I think you capture a cartoonish aspect quite well.

It's probably the most realistic drawing of Mario I'll ever see. The other ones just come off as creepy. I really do notice how wonderful the lines look. Honestly, I can see every part of his clothes. I can make out the cloth in them. That's rare in a picture.

[Bot]

Wow, that was very strange. I mean, strange as in it's not like the normal things you make. Then again, it seems like none of your art pieces are like that. I really did like how it seemed like some strange version of Samus. I guess the green and red just made me think of her. I like the reflection.

This really does show off some great creativity. I'm glad to know you've worked on different styles as an artist. It seems like all the best ones are British. He looks like he's in a battle from the position he's in. I'd like to see the rest of that.

[Birdy]

I am sorry, but I did not like this. I couldn't help but think there was some underlying tone I wasn't looking into. I can see the birdy's feet under the water. That's probably the most entertaining thing there was. Yeah, not much of a compliment. I don't know what kind of message you were trying to send.

I guess this was just something done fast and for fun. You could have put in some author's comments. If you had fun making this, good for you. I really don't recognize your style here. I believe that's a good thing.

[Ninj]

While you don't have that many, this is easily your best picture ever! I think it's because it really is a new kind of thing for you to draw. I've never seen you go into the Madness work before. I at least think this was supposed to be a Madness character. If not, you've got something great in its own right! I like the little cuts.

Maybe next time, you could show this guy off in action. It almost looks like he has cat paws. Wait, is this supposed to be an enemy of Cat Face? I just watched an episode of him, so he's on my mind. How does he see?

[Fish Holder]

I admit that I didn't find this to be that good. It does, however, do a good job of fitting the random pattern you make for yourself. I really do like the background. Fish holder really does say it all. Wait, I think I understand it now. The boy in this picture is underwater and those are the reeds behind him.

Or maybe he's jumping out? I would have expected some bubbles to be near him. The fish couldn't sweat underwater. Then again, I don't think fish sweat period. It's nice of you to start bringing art submissions here!

[Fluttershy Adventures]

It took me awhile to understand this at first. It helps that it is a pretty long comic, at least one for the art portal. I think I know what's going on here. You are implying that the entire show is a fantasy by a human Fluttershy. While there are many things about that which don't add up, this is still quite effective. While sad, it's still quite deep.

I'm thinking this should be put under the "Ruined Childhood" category. Well, MLP's probably too recent to be for a childhood anyway. It's still wonderfully drawn and well put together. Sad, I was just watching the show this morning. Good thing Fluttershy wasn't in it...

[Super Breaking Bad 2 Turbo]

This picture is awesome because it combines two great things together. Breaking Bad became the highest rated show in history, I'm serious! I just love how these sprites capture the spirit of the setting and characters so well. My favorite part is probably Tuco. His severed head looks so cartoonish. You rarely see sprite work at all anymore.

I love how you gave details for all the characters. I myself saw about five or six episodes, so I don't have that good of an understanding of it. Of course, it's too popular to really not know anything about it. I'd love to see this made into an actual game. Do it!

[Tom Figure]

I could have sworn I looked at this before. I probably did, but I just didn't review it. I really do like this. I was probably thinking of the NG figure contest. I just like how silly Tom looks in this, but he still manages to come off with a pretty dignified appearance. It's just that the design is silly, but his expression is so good.

I never knew a picture could make me think like that. He seems to have Powerpuff girl hands. And he also has no nose or ears like them too! At least he doesn't have the giant eyes. I think he's wearing brass knuckles, sweet!

[Language Barrier]

Oh my! Here is yet ANOTHER great art piece. I was a bit confused as to what the title meant. It seemed like they were speaking the same language. Or was it meant to be a literal barrier created with those words? Given how big they are, I wouldn't be surprised.

Anyway, this is a wonderful picture. I just love the way her hair is flying like that. It really does show emphasis on emotions. It really is fun to decipher everything that's being said. It's just vivid in every sense of the word.

[Zombicorn]

This is a very cool picture. I thought that maybe it would show the second popcorn bag eating a third popcorn bag. Inception jokes are just old nowadays. I thought everything was done very nicely with the shading and stuff. I don't see how popcorn could even become infected. Whatever, it just looks cool.

Just looking at your thumbnails seems amazing. Apart from great artwork, it truly is an original concept. I guess it wouldn't make sense for a bag to eat is own popcorn. Or would it? The butter does look like blood here.
