Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Unrest]

I couldn't help but be reminded of Evangelion. This guy looks a lot like one of the angels. I do think this probably would have worked out a little better if this hadn't been pixel art. It looks a bit too blocky in some areas. It's still a wonderful picture. You have wonderful colors in this.

It's just cool to see the image of a destroyed forest. You even put good detail into the background. It must have taken forever to do all that burned wood. Granted, I'm not sure how long pixel art takes. I guess that's a robot and/or monster of some sort.

[Hit-Girl Cartwheel Selfie]

It seems like I had forgotten about HitGirl for the longest time. That was a great character, though. It's kind of weird, because this picture is kind of goofy. The movie took itself more seriously. Well, I don't know, it's a pretty strange movie. I still loved it, though!

The colors in this are just wonderful. I seem to rarely see such good use of purple. She seems to be wearing some strange skirt. I liked how blurry everything else is. It was realistic that way.

[Lone Warrior Character Sheet]

Okay, now at 5, THIS is the highest rated art piece I've ever seen on the website. I simply have no choice but to give it the full 5. I don't want to break your record! Anyway, it's great how you drew the main character. I had seriously forgotten about him. I had no idea there was this much detail on his body.

I'm just so more used to seeing pictures of Nebula, the villain. He's the villain, right? I can't believe the depth you gave him with the brown color. I had no idea he looked like that close up. He seems vaguely Elfish. I'm not sure if that was the intention.

[Hand-picked]

Okay, here's my interpretation. The character looks a lot like Dad. I'm not referring to Dad from "Dad's Home", I'm referring to him from "Dad 'N Me". I never realized how many dads we had. Anyway, this is absolutely gorgeous. It's Dad about to kill or attack a kid.

That's quite depressing. I mean, this kid is absolutely adorable! It was unbelievable the sheer amount of detail you put into every one of his hairs. He seems to be part of nature. In fact, I'm pretty sure that was the intention, seeing as how his fingers are rocks. I can't believe this only has 3,000 views!

Interesting :) I love how interpretations differ so heavily from person to person, thank you for yours!

The painting did get front paged so I'm not trippin at all about the amount of views it got :)

[Nebula Character Sheet]

Palkia! I finally remembered the name of the pokemon I was thinking of! It seems like you waited a long time for another submission. Anyway, this is freaking great. It looks like Nebula is finally appearing in the Armed With Wings series. Or maybe he already was?

You made so much art it's hard to keep track of which characters you used. It was a great idea to show his sheet like this. You get to see all the hard work that it took into making this guy. Well, it's not sketches. It's still very impressive.

[Luigi's mansion 2]

Yes, a very beautiful picture! I am glad it was at least frontpaged. I don't see many pictures that have won awards. The perspective is really done well. I think the Boo might be a bit off, though. I especially like Luigi's expression.

You see him say a lot with his stance too. It's weird how he's using a flashlight in the day. I don't care, it's still a great picture! This really does seem like something from the actual game, like a cutscene. You know your Mario, or uh, Luigi.

[Armed with Wings]

I feel bad for not giving the actual game the four score. Well, that's probably because it was too hard for me. Or it lacked medals. This is an absolute masterpiece and it's great to see such wonderful detail put in. I don't even remember the game being this epic! Everything is just flawlessly detailed.

It seems like you get better all the time with fanart. The background is also great. I think there are wings on the logo. I understand what that means with the title obviously. The best part is probably the giant lightning bolt. It shows the action off perfectly!

[Nebula Ink]

Yes, I believe I have seen a speed painting of this one as well! It's certainly worth to see this great art piece. The best part about it is how well you use the ink. There weren't any colors, but that worked out perfectly here. I just love the black smoke that's coming off his face. The face shot is great by itself.

It would be cool to see the rest of his body, though. I doubt he has a normal one. Oh, duh, I've seen you draw this character before. Please put him in a game! Seems vaguely Dragonball Z-esque.

[Sugar Skull Pinup]

At first, I thought this would be about the game Skullgirls. I don't think it is. I didn't find her to be that attractive. I still love this piece, because it's wonderfully done. The best part is probably the skull. There's really a lot of wonderful detail there. You seem to know a lot about anatomy.

That's great in any picture. The shading is great too. I love the different uses of colors. This is an art piece that needs that. It isn't quite that scary.

[Pokemon - May fanart]

This is an absolutely amazing picture! The best thing about it is probably how it's done with the character May. This really seems like artwork out of Evangelion. Yeah, that would be a great crossover... Treecko is probably done the best here. I was thinking you might make her fanservicey.

While she is beautiful here, it wasn't like I was thinking. The background is fantastic too. I'm glad the pokemon anime has had such wonderful artists making stuff devoted to it. Even the title works well with how simple it is. There appear to be realistic birds in the background. This is just great!
