Ericho's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Soldier]

I love this picture because of how nice it is. I feel like you're really giving credit to real life soldiers. I think that's your intention at least. Do you have a family member that served in the military? It just seems like a picture that would hit close to home. The pose is great too.

I feel like he's trying to figure something out. He's wondering why he's out there fighting. Yeah, with all the wars we've fought in, he's probably in at least one of them. The shading done with this picture is absolutely flawless. It's wonderfully realistic. I honor all those who fight for us.

[Portal Panic]

It's funny how there's two people commenting on the picture. I think it is pretty cool how this is put together. You must have made a cartoon like this at one point. I was just playing a Dad game today. I think you captured their essence pretty well. It's not your best group picture of them, but still great.

Dad's probably the best guy depicted here. I like it how the tankmen has a shotgun. I forgot what weapons they use. The red background is great too. It's fun to just see them looking like this. Action poses are always nice.

[Blood Shade]

It's kind of strange to have an award simply referred to as "Frontpaged". Nonetheless, this is a very good drawing. It really does live up to what it says. Everything is done with the color of blood. I know a lot about Warhammer 40K, but never really played anything. I can appreciate how good this is.

I really like this guy's weapon. It's like he has a hammer at the end of his sickle. Maybe the whole thing is intended to be a hammer? You really get the mood down well. I know that Warhammer 40K is the worst place you could think of.

[Rage Faces in HD]

Here's yet another quite impressive picture! I think the best part here is that, well, you do make it realistic. It's weird when you draw the line between how cartoonish something should like. The faces still look like cartoons. It's not really literally in HD. You seem to have gotten this down really good though.

I saw some superimposed rage faces on people. They were usually just really scary. These are a lot more pleasant. The favorite is the last one, because you get to see his whole body. These pictures are a job well done.

[Runner]

I love this picture! It's one of the most realistic I've ever seen. I keep thinking that every picture of a woman with her midriff bared is intended to be sexual in some way. This wasn't! You really deserve points for showing the beauty of the human body without sexualizing it. The lines are done wonderfully here.

I've been watching art videos and recognize the style. You just have to know where to put the right streaks. I even like the little water bottle she has. It still manages to be animesque while being realistic. I hope we don't get into the uncanny valley soon. This is simply a great picture.

[Argus and Elvina]

I think this is the same game you were talking about in your videos. It certainly looks like it's starting out wonderful. I love this simply because it's a beautiful picture. I don't know much about the story or anything. You can still learn to understand these characters by this one picture. I am even glad to see them so happy.

It helps that you're so great at backgrounds. You know how to set the mood for something. This seems to take place at a end of a great conflict or the beginning of something wonderful. It was weird to not have "Ortus" in the title. It's even hard to see in the picture.

[whos the man]

This is another comic I love because of how unexpected it is. I had no idea that they were strangling the next guy coming. I was just paying more attention to the guy who was doing the strangling. I guess the Spy's disguise wasn't so bad after all. Wait, I guess it was bad. Eh, many people would do that to Robin anyway.

It's pretty long for a comic here. It's nice to have a little story to tell. I love how everything changes when Batman grabs him. Batman would look more cool with black. It did get more blue the more characters appeared.

[That Magic Spark]

I'd completely forgotten about the villains in the story! It makes me remember how entertaining they are, too. I think the best part is how it keeps the joke up. I knew it was going to be a Viagra like thing. A lesser artist would have stopped it right there. It seems to be almost cliché to make pedophile jokes.

Of course, a guy with a skull like that would be intimidating from the get go. Then again, evil has standards. It was great how you didn't include the other characters in this. It's weird to see a Larry comic without Larry. Eh, lots of stuff is like that, I suppose.

[Heaven`s Judge]

Now THIS is a beautiful image, my friend! I think the best part about it is...everything! It's probably the best drawing I've reviewed all day! I could just go on forever about the wonderful detail that is this drawing. I love how there's tons of detail in the background and well, pretty much everywhere else! I just think it's great that you depict good and evil like this.

The way you've depicted the judgement is just so creative. This helmet or headdress the judge is wearing is fantastic too. I'm guessing this takes place in Purgatory. Then again, it seems too colorful to not be in Heaven. Well, whatever it's supposed to be, it's wonderful. It perfectly illustrates the good and bad in us all!

[the Engineer]

I assumed that "The Engineer" was the name of one of the "Team Fortress 2" characters. I was about to write, this doesn't look anything like him. It makes more sense now that I know he's an original creation. I think you put a wonderful amount of detail into this picture. I just now notice the stuff in the background and the machine behind him. It looks more like he's going into battle instead of digging.

Of course, this being the Internet, who says he isn't doing both? The illumination is wonderful. I like the power lines in the background. It's just a little something that lights up the scene. Well, I guess his helmet does that best, lol.
