Urichov's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Major Angel]

Remembered this one, had trouble finding it:
https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/jouste/major-harrier-and-the-teen-champions
Seems there've been some name changes since then. And some design changes since then. All around quite a bit of change over the last three years. I like how much more damaged this one looks than the previous iteration.

jouste responds:

yeah I wanted it to be a little more consistent and obvious damage. The other one was a little too internalized but I really do like the piece. Great memory!

[Prince Cedric and Cedric the Second]

That crown looks dangerous being where it is :/

jouste responds:

he can regenerate pretty quick so he'll probably be ok. and they need to bring the crown so people know who he is!

[Ayr Byrd]

Sometimes I wish you'd link your previous versions* when doing these revisits because on this one I really second-guessed myself when thinking I'd seen him before. Interesting how little this one has changed since then. Also interesting how my past self apparently really thought there was any issue with the wings doing through the engines. Don't really have anything to say except that of all your concepts this is probably still the most wild and out there. A bird, flying? Come now, I like a bit of fantastical liberty but that's stretching it.
*The previous version in question for anyone curious: https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/jouste/ayr-byrd

jouste responds:

hey good eye!
I actually used to do it all the time but I kind of am going for a leaner approach with these new passes. I think that the design was so strong it didn't really need an update and I wanted to get him fresh in my mind. I guess it was over 3 years ago when I drew this guy. Crazy!

[6x6x6 Fanarts]

Just looking at those stats has me terrified. 18 megabytes, like Jesus Christ. Anyway, good work my dude, drawing over 200 characters for this challenge is a power move if I've ever seen one.

[Sharkula]

My boy's back again. Lookin a little different this time, I see.

jouste responds:

put on a few pounds, but he can still get around.

[SplatterBrain Issue No. 1 Cover Art]

Ah I see he bears the mark of the holy hand grenade on his glove, how righteous.

[Gultch]

Seems his face got rather elongated over five years.

jouste responds:

yeah you're right! I tend to push things as I redraw them, are you a bigger fan of the shorter snout?

*highfives

[Duvet]

Interesting. Unless my brain is doing weird things right now I think the shadows of the raindrops falling down the window would be seen as moving the opposite direction. I don't know if you did this intentionally or not. Looks great, though.

Moonshen responds:

haha yeah I've waiting someone else to notice it.
I'm too lazy to change that mistake today xd

[On to the next one, boys]

I like the big one's face. He has a good face.

Kidgalactus responds:

Thanks so much, buddy!

[Mr. Engine]

By god, he's huge. I quite like the design of the person on his head, even if it's quite simplistic. Do the other two characters here have names?

Kidgalactus responds:

Yup! It's Mr. Steam, Archimedes and Connie
