Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kyun]

I'm pretty sure this is the first picture I've reviewed that won Daily Feature and Weekly User's Choice. I wasn't even sure there were honors that ranked that high on the art portal! It would be great to see her whole body. I mean, everything about her is hot! It's still a wonderful use of a close up. You don't see quality like this normally in the games.

The background is also awesome. I really like her "personality"? It's awesome how boobs is the only word under tags. The one eye closed is quite alluring too. It's easy to see why this has so many views. Shadings are wonderful as well.

[Nari Kiss]

Congratulations on being so popular! I guess sexual stuff really does get more views here. My only complaint is that it's a little too close up. It still manages to be quite effective. You get the sense that the girl is right here trying to seduce you. The texture is wonderful.

I really like the detail on those ringlets. I think that's what those hair things are called. Her breasts do seem a little long. It's probably how the picture is done. There's a great CGI feel to this. The reflection's great too.

Thanks for the feedback. sexual stuff get views probably in most places. "sex sells" as the saying goes heh. but as mentioned from the other pic, these were posted around the time when the art portal was relatively new so there was lot of traffic and attention draw to it.

[White Mage]

I'm fairly certain that isn't Natalie. I simply have to give this the full score because you've drawn a girl in such skimpy attire. I even love how she's blushing. I don't quite think she's trying to seduce anybody. You are great at drawing beautiful women. For 2006, it looks great!

I believe that's lingerie of some kind. It's hard to go wrong with that. I would love for this character to appear in your games or other works. She's just so beautiful! Draw Natalie in these clothes! I'm pervier than I thought.

[fairy tales]

This is an absolutely fantastic picture! Your work reminds me of the same guy who did Objectionable Apparatus. Then again, that's probably just because the works are both Russian. This is one where you really just have to look hard at it. Are these Russian fairy tales? They sure don't seem like the ones I'm used to.

There was just always lots of action in this. Everyone is here doing something. My favorite would probably be the robots, if that's what those are. It even manages to tell sort of a story. You see a Medusa pied piper leading children or things. It's just a wonderful picture!

[kupo707 lvl4x]

Yeah, it's easy to tell that this is an older drawing. I really liked how you put the sprite version up. It's still a good drawing. It may be the worst one you ever made, but only by freaking default. It still has great detail, colors, etc. You have always gotten better.

The body seems a bit out of proportion. Well, I guess your recent drawings aren't that realistic either. It just seemed a bit off. I thought that this was supposed to be you, because you're also known by this name. I know you're not a girl, though.

[Joker]

Dude, this is one of the most realistic drawings I've ever seen of the Joker! The author comments summed it up perfectly. It's still more than that. It's an awesome drawing of the Joker. I can't tell if this was based on any specific actor who played him. I guess I'm just thinking of Heath Ledger because of the Dark Knight movie.

When another popular Joker comes around, I might think of him instead. The best part is probably the grin. It really does look like his lips melted off. You show such strong facial expressions too. The different hairs are all detailed wonderfully. One of the best Joker pictures!

[Shrooms]

It's weird how it took months to be featured. I guess that just how it was when the art portal was first created. This is probably the most unique thing you've ever drawn. By "unique", I mean it's so different than what you usually do. I feel like you handled this quite well. 27,000 views is nothing to be ashamed of either.

I couldn't tell what kind of creature this thing was. I think it's just meant to be some strange thing. The colors are wonderfully done. You really did show them off with the shadings here. I imagine it's just a shroom trip and I don't know how different that is from an acid trip.

[Jet Cycle]

Hey, I'm glad to have come by this! I think this is one of the more dignified Clock pictures I've ever seen. Then again, it seems like I rarely see clock pictures here. This is certainly something sophisticated enough for the art portal. I'm not sure if that's how a real engine looks. It certainly seems realistic.

I like how good you look. You show some good expression even without a face. Well, I guess you do technically have a face, it's just...not a standard one. There should be more good clock pictures like this.

[White Mage 2]

Yeah, I was definitely thinking of Natalie when looking at this. I didn't even know there were Daily 3rd (or 2nd) places for art pieces. Again, love to see that recorded. Looks like you really are getting known for your fanservice. I can still tell it's an old picture. It's weird how you didn't include White Mage 1 picture here.

Or maybe it comes up later. It can't be Natalie with the different eye color. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. I like your newer art more. This is of course, still wonderful.

[Inner Feelings]

Yikes, that's a wonderfully dark picture. You really do know how to tell a story with it. It's just great to see all of this stuff literally coming out of him. I imagine we all feel like that sometime. I know I do. Well, not to that extreme.

I do think the skull needs a little work. He seems a bit too sketchy. There are great shades of red in this. It kind of reminds me of Madness Combat. I guess he has two skulls.

Thank you sir, I appreciate the in depth review! :D
