Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Undersea]

It's always a good idea to say how long it took you to make something. That way, we can get a good sense of the effort. Of course, anything this awesome would have effort like that. I just love how you portray this beautiful world. The only thing I didn't like was how there should have been more kinds of life. There were just whales and fish.

The whale reminded me of a certain pokemon, Kyogre, that was its name! I'm glad I'm not behind on my pokemon names. I think these balls of light are supposed to be eggs. Whatever they are, they certainly look wonderful. The light coming below is great too.

Kamikaye responds:

Thanks a lot :)
There might bemicroscopic life around ;) Na seriously, I didn' t really know what to add in the end regardig lifeforms. The orange ones could be eggs, or other lifeforms, who knows :)

[Dad vs. Bitey]

This really is a wonderfully gone piece. I'm amazed that it took you so long to make it. You just seem so someone who is so prolific you could get anything done quickly. I will admit that Dad seems to be a lot bigger than Bitey. Of course, they're both muscular. The background's great too.

I would like to see them actually fight. You could make a submission out of that. Of course, I don't think a submission could be that well detailed. I'd love to once again, see the speedpainting. Maybe I already have?

[Starsiege Tribes]

Okay, I have seriously never heard of this game before in my entire life, but I want to know everything about it because of this awesome drawing. At first, I thought it was a Spider-Man drawing. That seemed to be Spidey's hand on top. Even the helmet seems to have a spider insignia on it. It's simply something completely new to me. I also love the ground.

I'm thinking it's supposed to be sand or something that whirling around? Whatever, it looks awesome. The darkness is perfect too. It just makes you think of your own idea on what's going to happen next. Everything is so ambiguous. I love that.

[Dota 2 FAILS!]

I think this is a great picture, but I don't really understand it. I remember hearing about Dota, but only from you. It's still great because everything is set up so well. It's a very entertaining and silly picture. I don't know what the lines on the guy on the left's body mean. They seem to be playing with weapons.

The background is wonderful too. I just love it when you show birds like that. It's just a cute little touch. I guess this was cute in its own weird way. The headwear looks nice. I especially like the bloody hook on the pacifier.

[Krieg ist Leben]

For some reason, I thought the title had something to do with lesbians. Anyway, I found this to be a wonderful picture. The best part is probably seeing the people below who are fighting. It does add a bit of a hopeful spot to it. I can't tell if some buildings are partly frozen or have fuel on them. The fuel from the ships is roughly the same color.

The sky looks wonderful too. The ships resemble giant pillbugs. It's just all the little details that make this a great art piece. The buildings are wonderfully done too. I can't see why the rating is so high. I love this!

[Kvothe, the bloodless]

I don't know why he's called bloodless. I guess you don't really mention him killing anyone in this. I hope he has blood at least. I will admit that he looks a bit girly. I just associate red hair with women more. It looks like he's holding a musical instrument.

The texture in this is wonderful. The background is probably the best part. You just really know how to create great atmosphere. You just consistently make great art. It looks like the Sun is rising.

[Golden COW]

Ah yes, I remember the golden cow as being a symbol of paganism. Then again, I think that's also a figure from Hinduism. I guess either way it's some godlike being. I wish I had gold of some kind. I love how he's just staring at me like that. It really does make him look powerful.

I love how he's holding those two Newgrounds symbols. I'm fairly certain that's from our ranks. The red stripes and dots are great too. I knew he's from Hinduism now because of his red spot. It's a very cool picture.

[Dota 2 - Drow Ranger]

I seem to have forgotten what Dota 2 is. Anyway, I love this picture. I think it's the first time you drew a woman here who was really trying to be attractive. Well, boobs make you think of everything like that. I really appreciate the dark atmosphere you've created. The parts of his suit just go all over her body.

She even seems to be holding a really cool weapon. I'm not quite sure what the background is. I do know that it creates good contrast with the girl. This seemed to be done in a different style than most of your other things. I also love variety!

[Photoshop Painting Pic]

And eventually I'm going to watch the speedpainting for this too. You have put so much work into it. I think this is supposed to be the main character from the Paladin series. I don't know, it's been so long since I've seen that. All guys with beards like that remind me of Jesus. The stern eyes are so good.

The dark atmosphere around him is great too. It looks like those are bloodstains on the wall. Even his shirt is wonderfully detailed. I'm glad you keep making great stuff like this. It's great how he just looks at you.

[snowkid]

I don't understand this that much, but it is a very much drawing. The sunglasses remind me of Kamina. Was that a direct shout out? The red cape seems like a given. I love how the girl has that expression on her face. She doesn't seem to understand it either.

Even the background is nicely done. It reminds me of when it snowed in Pennsylvania. Granted, I could never make a snowman this awesome. There's even a little snowman in the background. The one to the right looks good too.
