Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Consumed]

I don't have much idea on what's going on, but it's a great picture! I really do like the fine details in this. It looks like those red disks are coming towards her or something. It's a bit hard to tell. You really do manage to create a sense of being restrained with her handcuffs too.

The fingerless gloves are a nice touch too. You really can see the concern in her eyes. I don't know what this is a reference to. Whatever it is, it works quite well. Her hair seems to have streaks of red from the discs.

zigan responds:

Thank you. This is quite an older piece, but I always appreciate positive feedback. :)

[Dota 2 Invoker: Chrome]

And yes, this picture obviously is better. I am becoming so used to hearing about Dota 2. While not that great, this is still a fine picture. I think its strongest point is how well the colors fit together. The balls of light show off the effects quite well too. I just really like the cloak this guy is wearing.

A face makes everything seem more detailed. Then again, Slender Man's fine too. It kind of reminds me of Warhammer 40K. His head looks fairly small in this. Can't wait for the next one!

[Dota 2 Invoker: Simple]

I think it is interesting how you uploaded them separately. I would think you could do it all in one file. I don't know, I'm not an artist myself. I just like the idea of a character named Invoker. You are really getting me interested in Dota 2. I don't even know what the first Dota was.

I guess it's just a more popular sequel. Yeah, this is the most bland of them all. I can tell by just the thumbnail that the others are better. It isn't a bad picture. Then again, you really never make bad pictures.

[Valentines Lily]

While it wasn't anything too special, I thought it was pretty good. The best part was probably how you didn't make it too complicated. Did you give this picture to someone in real life? I think this is a pretty accurate depiction of a flower. Then again, I don't know much about them.

I guess those are supposed to be drops of water on it. Purple's a pretty good flower color. I admit it does look a bit bland. It's just a flower. I still like it and am glad it was frontpaged on Valentine's Day.

[Bowser]

I love how utterly insane Bowser looks. The fact that he has a gun just makes it all the easier for him. Then again, so did Shadow. I like how his nails all are black. I know they're white, so this just makes him more intimidating. I love how it's not just a picture of Bowser.

Your art style is so distinct you could have made something good just by drawing him. By adding a gun, you went the extra mile. The red background is quite good too. He just looks so utterly insane in this. At this point, I'd probably assume there's more fanart of him than any other villain.

[Kratos - God of War]

Yes, finally! There's a character you drew that I am actually quite familiar with! Well, not quite, I just know where he's from. He looks a lot like Drax. Yeah, I'm eager to see "The Guardians Of The Galaxy" too. The chains are a wonderful touch.

They truly show how ruthless the character is. There's so much stuff binding him that he can just break free of. Rather, it's really part of his OWN weapon. The skulls on the swords are a wonderful touch too. It seems to be the most distinctive of any picture I've seen from you in awhile! Even the background is wonderful.

[Now Playing: Game Grumps]

I keep hearing about Game Grumps. Granted, that's probably only because you do a lot of stuff associated with it. I can recognize all the video game characters down there. Then again, they're already quite unique. I just love how stylistic these guys look. I like how it says "Now Playing".

I don't watch it, that's probably part of their episodes. Even the background pictures have really nice features to them. I really like how they stern they look. Their clothes are especially fancy looking. I know that's Egoraptor!

[Pink.]

That's funny, this picture seems familiar to me. It seems like something I would have reviewed. Then again, I could have simply seen it frontpaged. That's what it says after all. I couldn't help but think that this guy is based on Gordon Ramsey. He certainly doesn't smile that much.

I like how stupid this guy looks. It's great to see so many exaggerated facial features. His nose especially seems to be really high. It's even a nice background. It seems like an authentic painting.

[Fresh meat! (Dota 2 - Pudge)]

It really is cool to see such a giant guy stitched up like that. It reminds me of a scene in the first Hobbit movie where the troll is just sliced open. It's pretty disturbing to see his intestines like that. Of course, here they look more like sausages. I hope his intestines aren't really up to his upper body. He's going to rot like mad there.

This is just such a strong picture I can't help but love it. It makes you wonder how he even got that way. I know so little about Dota 2, but want to know more. I'm glad you introduced me to it.
