Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[NG VaultBoy: Level 1]

Nice little picture

While not that detailed, this is still a pretty well done picture you have. The best thing is probably how you don't try to go for anything flashy. I guess that a Level 1 icon by definition would not have to be that great. It's amazing you managed to submit so many of these to the portal! Dude, you have enough material to create your own spinoff site featuring these guys! I think I've seen these drawings before in a game, maybe.

Why is a guy's hair blonde but his mustache black? I just think that you would only dye your mustache differently from your hair if it was gray. Whatever, that does give an interesting appearance to this. All people who are currently on Level 1 should be able to associate with this. Toilet plungers can be pretty funny.

[the necromancer]

One of the best ever made!

I think this is the first time I reviewed an art piece that won Daily Feature and Weekly User's Choice! What's really awesome is that every single award was on the same date! It all became 999! But seriously, on to the art piece itself, it was completely flawless. It is great to see so much detail put into something with a chicken in it. Every inch of the title character is filled with awesomeness and flawless coloring effects.

There are tons of cool and awesome things in the background too. That is one chainsaw I wish I had! It looks like the skeletons are rising from their graves and paying their tribute to him. Of course, something that has the word "necro" in it has to be death-related. I can even make out the lightning that's flashing and hitting his chainsaw. A singing bird statue bleeding out its eyes is pretty sweet too.

[Green Lantern Pico]

Oh, I get it!

At first, I wasn't too impressed with this art piece, but it's actually a lot better than you would think! It reminds you of how some submissions do not have a background. The site itself is the background. It was genius to show a character who was actually being devoured by the site itself! I guess the site is supposed to be some black tar or gooey substance. Pico actually looks more like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

It's nice to see the little indents that go outside his body. It gives it a really three dimensional appearance. I'm glad there isn't an option to view this in full screen because that would take away the purpose. It seems like it was featured for Halloween, but wasn't submitted at the time. I can recognize your style now!

[Toucanman]

Very nice indeed

When I saw the title, I assumed it was going to be a parody of Toucan Sam. I mean, that's the only drawn toucan I can think of. What makes this great is how deadpan you are in your presentation. Of all the XMan things out there (not including the X-Men) you could do this with literally everyone. A "Bat" man is simply the most popular because bats are known to be strong, intimidating features. You nicely reversed the situation with a non-threatening animal.

The artwork itself is great. It looks just like one of those Batman images you would see highly ranked in the art portal. While there wasn't a background, you didn't need it for a picture this good. It somewhat resembles a penguin man, but we already have one with the Batman villian Penguin. The colors are just nicely done.

[Character Select]

It begins!

Seeing as how you have so many art submissions, it's great to see where it all started. I can recognize this as being something that was made by you. What really makes this are the effects of pixels. It's an effect that's kind of hard to describe, but you can tell it was meant for a video game but everything seems to well organized. I never thought of Mary as being in a game with Lucifer and Jesus! This could have been really cool if it did get completed.

It's great that you still show off your old stuff for the sake of what could have been. There are so many ideas that ar enever used well. I think this is one of the art pieces most suitable for a game screen I've ever seen! I never realised how tall some of these people were at least here. I like how they're all staring at each other ready to fight.

[Pearls]

How stylish

It's nice to know you had so many of these different kinds of art works to show us. While most are pornographic, they are still different. It's good how you used the lack of a background for the person. It gives the picture a more realistic appearance like it's on top of the screen or something. I would think some risque pictures involving pearl necklaces would actually be more graphic. It's a term for something you should probably know.

It's so nice you have responses to everything the people ask! It's a little hard to see, but you can definitley make out the nipples of this woman at one point. I like the way her hair flows with its black color. Hey, if you're going to appreciate a beautiful woman, might as well be proper and admire every part of her! It's so nice how you drew the body movements.

[Nine]

Nice and twisted!

Judging from the title, I thought this was going to be about Nene. I wish I had some idea what the number 9 had to do with this. For what it's worth, this is still a fantastic art piece. While it lacks color, it makes up for it in shading because you get a really good sense of the lines doing the coloring. It seems like it's taking place in an M. C. Escher painting. I even imagine that Darnell is holding onto a pen in ink to alter the picture.

It's crazy because the body positions are all in the most ridiculous ways! From the perspective, it looks like his arm is all tiny and the rest of him is huge. Every part of his body seems to move around so fluidly with a bulbous appearance. It's great to see lines being used as shadings. Even without color, you can tell it's a black guy.

[DRUNK ALEX]

Very interesting

I guess this doesn't mean much to you now, but Happy Halloween! It's always interesting to see how the process is done. While it wasn't literally done in this, it's still nice to show a bit of what went on behind the scenes. Or I guess scene in this case. I especially love how vibrant the colors are for something that doesn't have that much in it. For someone who's supposed to be drunk, he doesn't look too angry.

That Street Fighter collab was too long for me to remember the part this was from. It's nice to know people can still contribute well with individual great pieces. I'm even now noticing the good shaping forms used in the background. It also works because it doesn't try to be too flashy. It seems like a pretty realistic scene.

[Morrigan Aensland]

Nearly perfect!

The only reason I didn't like this more is because it's not the hottest Morrigan I've ever seen. That would go to the Morrigan featured in "MVC3: Dante". Of course, this is still great because you get everything about Morrigan completely right. This is one of the few pictures where you get a great shot of her butt. Hey, every part of her is hot! I am confused as to why it was put in "Mature" because I didn't see any private parts.

Morrigan's cleavage is just massive in this! Seriously, I think those boobs have to be the size of her head (each)! The background is fantastic as well, particularly with how the shading is so perfect. You just know how to get absolutely everything right in this. It's exactly what Morrigan, as a succubus should be in her pose. You can appreciate everything that makes her so beautiful.

Sabtastic responds:

Thanks!! haha
I agree, yeah. It's so hard to do Morrigan justice. She's just got so much fanservice potential. lol

I showed this picture to a co-worker today, and she was like, "WHOA, BOOBS! -- SO MUCH OF THEM!" and then we joked about how her boobs take up about 50% of the image.

[dark ambiance]

So beautiful

When I looked at this at first, I thought it was supposed to be the Angry Video Game Nerd. It's great because it actually appears to be some random person. This is among the best artwork you have ever made. Granted, I haven't seen it all but am judging it based on the preview icons. It's great how every part of this picture has the utmost colorful designs in it. There was so much precision put into each and every detail.

I love how to look like it's not that flashy, but it's still vibrantly done with fantastic colors. It truly shows off the true beauty of the world around us. I imagine we all wish we had lairs like this with the best technological gadgets. I think the best designed thing is still the person himself. He is the most realistic looking thing here. It's hard to tell if those are cobwebs or cords (most likely cords).
