Well folks, we're back at it again! Nickelodeon has continued its terrible-illustrations-of-characters-badly-drawn-in-poor-approximations-of-other-artstyles journey, so we have continued our fixing-terrible-illustrations-of-characters-badly-drawn-in-poor-approximations-of-other-artstyles journey! This time it's Appa from Avatar (the bald kid one, not the buff smurf one) at the center of this aesthetic maelstrom. Can we fix them all!?!? Tune in to find out!!!!!!!

Did this guy really animate a whole intro so he could say "hey there's another style swap sheet"?
that's why he's the goat
That’s why Harry is the goat

@@HKG4he's not a goat, he's a walking W!
Dude even animated the sponsor like he's just too good man 😭
i hate when their idea of a style swap is just thecharacter in cosplay
it is tempting, though. I have to admit, when I've done style swaps it's been "hey that character would look good in (outfit item that is common in that other show)"
Or a character wearing another like a flesh suit... Or basically, taking a character, then awkwardly contorting and mishapening them to match the shape of another.
@@chaos4654 This style swap was sponsored by House Bolton.
They literally traced the original and called it a day
@@KairuHakubiDifferent kind of style swap, lol. Nothing wrong w that! Its just dull when they mean art style swap rather than "clothes style" or something along those lines
The whole point of Mandy's design is that she is a little girl in a pink dress and cute shoes, but her hair betrays her disguise as the devil horns that show her true self.
actually that mkes me apreciat ebetter the scooby-doo one. The og is pretty ok and a master pieece comapred almost any other thing they bringed before. But I forgot that ovbiou details for a seond. But also now that I think it it honestly hear like a potntial scoody-doo idea.
A little girl that literally destroys the fabric of reality with a smile and has the most uninterested expression on her face at all times more like a mc donalds employee
@@aylenpons6682 do you even know how to type?
The way I gasped on the transformers reveal... Excellent job as usual!
Well thank you kindly, Mari!
Omg Mari!!! I love your videos, and Harry's too of course!! :)
The fact you put a Skillshare ad, Gangnam Style parody, and Annoying Orange parody that I didn't skip is something to be applauded. That caricature has got to be Asmongold.
"This is probably the cringiest thing i've ever done" that doesnt say very much now, does it?
Also a ppap reference
Appa: "Where on Earth did that knife come from?!" Orange: "I don't know, it probably had something to do with the Justice League." Appa: "The Justice League!?" Orange: "Yeah. Maybe it wanted to show you the _Schneider cut!_ Ahahahahaha!"
Oh yeah, what's with the 2010s theme
Nickelodeon DIDNT EVEN DRAW THE CHARACTER IN DIFFERENT STYLES, THEY JUST TRACED. ITS SO CRAZY HOW YOUR TAKE ON THIS LOOK WAY MORE BETTER 😭
I really love the SpongeBob one because they didn't even try, they just gave him sponge bobs texture basically. They could've made him like a seal or something, but no, they carved sponge bob into his shape.
@@plantain.1739or a tardigrade
I think most people can do a better job if they trieeeeed
Yeah since probably the sky bisiontook inspo from a waterbear@@Shadow_Mihai
The transformers isn’t even original; it’s just the hot wheels appa character car.
The Gangnam style parody was something I did not expect, I just got hit with a wave of both cringe and nostalgia. To be expected from Harry Gold himself, to be frank.
Nah, mainly Cringe
@@theduck7346😶
I’ll take CN’s “it’s not quite a true style swap, but it’s close enough” over Nick’s “here’s a shitty trace job with a wig” any day. That said, clearly Harry is the winner, no contest.
That’s the best worst parody song I’ve ever heard, good job man.
“Ru Ru Ru rugrats style!”
@@DoctorBugeatermoreso ap ap ap appa rugrats style
Its better Than I wanna admit it is
4:59 where the sponsor begins Honestly harry, you’re sponsors are pretty creative instead of the boring spons It acts more like an old commercial.
The effects on that looked very cool
The only time I watch through a sponsor
Hey give Spons some credit, he's trying his best D: (I am being held at gunpoint by a living British kite with a face)
@@AB365_Official *Hello! I'm SPONS*
@@AB365_Official yeah Spons also is good to
You’re the one who taught me how to properly draw my ocs in the powderpuff girls art style. Of course it lead to everyone telling me I’m wrong cuz I didn’t do the iconic yet infuriating body shape. Thank you
Harry Gold Show is one of the highest quality pieces of KZhead programming I have conceived. Obviously there’s the great art, but the editing, scripts and comedy make it so entertaining. Also the fact that Harry Gold drew Asmongold is well pretty golden
was i expecting Harry Gold to make a gangnam style parody to explain how he emulates animation cells? no. is it my favorite thing he's ever done? yes, absolutely.
It was entertaining and informative! I'm gonna have to rewatch that segment over and over
Harry Gold’s back at it again fixing art, why don’t they just hire him to replicate art styles?
Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the ones drawing the official ones were just the poor social media managers and not actual artists…
Simple, he's neither an intern, a social media manager, nor a contract worker for arbitrary twitterx posts
appa rugrats style
Money
My guess is that they don't want to pay a fair wage
I am actually shocked by just how amazing the production is on this. How the hell is this channel not wildly popular???
I am utterly shocked by how talented you are in your craft. This whole video feels like a finely put together production. My jaw quite literally dropped when I saw what you did for the Earthspark Appa, and it dropped even lower when you did the transition to a classic G1 design too. Absolutely fantastic, always love watching your stuff!
Thank you very kindly!!
Ah, Nickelodeon... The gift keeps on giving... Otherwise, Harry would be out of a job.
Wait what?
They're the curse, but we're the ones that keep on cursing 'em
SpongeBob was cursing in Sailor Mouth
did you edit that like 2 seocnds ago
@@TVOSC yeah i did. It didn't really make sense beforehand
You should've made Appa in the SquarePants style an oversized tardigrade, that would've made sense for the aquatic theme of the show!
nick is the kid that skips art class and cn is the kid that pays partial attention while trying something new
In Total Drama, Beth and MacArthur don’t have lips, so Mandy didn’t need to have lips either, but looks fantastic either way.
I was also gonna mention this lol
Theyre doing a bad job on purpose at this point i swear
His explanation about this being like bad videogames... I don't quite swallow. Social media is inherently worthless. there are no sales, there's no profiting from it, and everyone who uses it is a drooling moron with political beliefs that would make Karl Marx go "Hey hang on, slow down a bit." They're right not to put any work into it. Now that said, if they wanted to put work into it and then put it up on a WEBSITE, or as a promo on their show or something, or even sell 3-ring binders and folders with those images, that would be valid.
@@KairuHakubiSays the drooling moron using social media to state how worthless they say social media is.
@@KairuHakubiSays the drooling moron that is using social media right now to state that social media is worthless.
@@KairuHakubi On the contrary; I'd say social media has the same inherent value as any other marketing forum - such as Fortnite crossovers (to bring it back to games, of which this specific deal the original franchise holder gets very little direct money from). The more eyes on it, the more they sell on streaming/DVDs/merchandise. Coca-Cola is a household name, so why do they keep running commercials and ads? It's because they have an impact, even this many years into their widespread adoption - even though the ad itself doesn't directly gain any money.
@@KairuHakubiSays a drooling moron that is on social media to state how worthless social media is.
To go from Humphrey Bogart to Asmongold is pretty severe whiplash honestly.
I love how you made the sponsor a 1950s commercial
Henry Gold is the peak definition of “quality over quantity.” Every video just has so much effort put into it, the fact that you managed to put a fully animated intro, multiple drawings made for 1 second gags, and a whole Gangnam Style parody in ONE VIDEO is incredible. Please never stop making these videos oh my god Edit: HARRY Gold my GOD apple autocorrect stop DOING THIS 😭😭😭😭😭😭
You gotta start a patreon sometime man I’d love to join
Agreed! (Hi Poly :3)
I swear, it's become a running gag with Nick. Heck, I (and countless others) LITERALLY kept making the joke. Nick: *posts terrible toon art.* Everyone: I can already hear Harry Gold groaning at his table right now.
You just singled handedly solve my biggest pet peeve with "Draw this in X style" An Art style is about a fundemental understanding and consistency of its building blocks , not just an existing character in cosplay High quality content , amazing job!
My guess is, these style swap posts are made by interns who are still in art school, not by working professionals. That's why they demonstrate a poor understanding of style, and of art in general.
oh my god he animated both a whole sponsor and an intro for this. holy shit call that love for the art
And a Gagnam Style parody! What CAN'T this man do???
Well he always animates a sponsor
@@Soup-Boot I was gonna say CGI, but even if he's just a humble "Drawer" He still manages to pull of CGI quite good actually! There really isn't a thing i can think of that Harry can't do, the guy's a legend!
The fact that Harry Gold went out of his way to not only animate an entire intro to this, but he wrote an entire song just about making a cell animation look.
The amount of effort put into these style correction videos is insane From the sponsor segments to the FREAKING GANGNAM STYLE PARODY. You my good sir need way more than 90k subscribers.
The amount of effort that goes into each one of your videos is astounding. An animated intro and sponsor? A song parody that made me laugh many times? And a high quality Transformer Appa? Truly a peak quality over quantity channel. The facial hair and the long hair of the caricature makes me think of Charles Christopher White Jr. (Moist Critikal). So that's my guess.
BRO THAT INTRO IS ACTUALLY SO GOOD
Um, I think you mean "GOLD"
Like, not only is the execution of Harry’s style swaps immaculate (as usual) but also the general creativity/production of this video is just out of this world! Like…the ATLA intro parody, the UPA style ad break, the tutorial framed with a “Gangnam Style” parody, Annoying Orange ft. Appa, Dee Dee-ified Mandy’s hair singing?! lol This video deserves 10M+ views at minimum. Great work as usual, Harry!
Thank you very kindly!!!
right
Considering the quality of your videos, it’s honestly criminal that your channel is still under 100k subs.
I’m just genuinely so mad that after all these years and top tier videos, you STILL haven’t gotten the recognition you deserve. One of the best art-based channels.
I can just TELL that Harry Gold went ALL OUT for this episode.
Why of course, this time's caricature is Harry Gold's Cousin, Asmon Gold. Similarities between them include, never leaving their desks and their rooms being large messes. In Harry's case, thats because he sits 24/7 fixing Art Style Swaps and making so many Sonic OCs has filled his room to the brim with discared personality sheets, and with Asmondgold's case... thats because he is a gamer.
I think it's him too. The only other person I can think of is Moistcritical/Charlie/Pinguinz0, but Asmond was my first thought too.
20:32 Your attempt at Transformers Earthspark gets this Transformers fan's seal of approval. I was both excited and scared to see what you'd do for this one, and I'd say it's passable
The fact that the channel with someone so talented, who puts so much effort in his videos, is still under 100k subscribers is the proof that there is no justice in this world.
Harry Gold is so good at replicating every art style, he’s gonna put all cartoons out of business.
We don't deserve you Harry, you're the best. You've become my favorite Art content creator in all of KZhead.
would love to see you style swap some shows with notoriously bad art styles. most popular example is probably big mouth, so maybe but them in some more appealing styles or put other characters into theirs. but ofc any show with a "bad art style" could work, pick your poison
can I please just say how much I love this channel, like, it's so different, actually enjoyable to watch, man, from the art, the music, the aesthetic, everything about this channel is just marvelous and watching it feels like eye and ear candy, please let this channel live long, this is one of the few things on the internet that makes me feel like humanity isn't so bad after all. Thanks Harry for bringing us a show full of love and dedication, along with wodnerful art and humor, I mean it, thank you.
I appreciate that Nickelodeon acknowledged Transformers Earthspark (it's a fantastic show, after all), but not only is it such a poor choice for these art style posts, having an instance of a CGI show amidst a bunch of 2D shows, but the drawing itself makes it seem as if it came from Blaze and The Monster Machines. It's just the uncreatively-conceived alternate mode.
That sponsor segment was so good. I'd honestly love to see you make your own little 50's/APA style cartoons
The sheer quality of your work is always astounding. The fact you have a full song parody that doubles as a legitimate tutorial and then you still have a full pseudo-3D (with a bonus 2D version!!) of a mech design after that is just absurd.
I gotta say, I absolutely cherish each of Harry Gold’s videos. Not only is the art he makes fantastic, but the editing and effort that goes into making the videos is nothing short of impressive.
I think harry is losing his mind with all these bad artstyles, and his insanity is manifesting via decade old memes
Watching a Harry Gold video is like eating at a fancy restaurant. Sure, you don't get to go there often, but whenever you do, the food is always delicious.
It still absolutely baffles me how he doesn't have at least a million subs
True dat, 11:40 was very funny too
13:03 They even have examples of Total Drama Island universe kids in Total Drama Rama, the typical "lets make the main cast kids" spinoff all series makes when out of ideas. Though to my surprise your remake looks a bit off from that style's interpretation of children...
well, the caption did say "Total Drama", not "Total Dramarama"
This is probably one of the most unique KZhead channel I’ve seen for years. You got that old 50-60s style, very well animated intros, great attention to detail, creative ad sponsors, and anything in-between. Props to you Harry Gold!
The into was sick, BUT WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE BOP SONG? LIKE THAT WAS SO COOL AND GOOD. He's a all rounder artist i swear
It's been such a treat watching your channel grow over the past couple years, and to the point that you've started to get sponsors! you're one of the most skilled artists I've seen on this platform and it's great to see that get recognised, here's to 100k subs no doubt in no doubt the near future !
My husband and I watched this, and we are just in LOVE with the new designs! Like, they actually look authentically from the shows! Nickelodeon needs to hire YOU for their social media art posts (and pay you what you're actually worth, not their usual paltry amount). My husband's favourite is the TMNT Appa (which freaking rocks), and my favourite is...well...pretty much all of the Appa ones. I grew up with a lot of Nickelodeon shows, so seeing the styles done so well just made me so happy!
There truly is no better style bender than Harry gold. Truly the Artvatar
I'm glad Harry Gold has established himself as not only king of style swaps, but also king of sponsorship segments. One of these days, Furball.
*MEOW*
Literally the only ones I don't skip
I didn't know LS Mark got to guest star In this thumbnail!
The Transformers Appa redesign is so cool! Not only is it just a nifty character on its own, the design of the appa-themed chest plate is so incredibly clever.
I actually went back to watch your sponsor. These videos are so high quality, thank you for making them so good
Companies will never learn
Thanks Harry for making the only Ad break on YT that I choose not to skip because it feels exactly like a vintage commercial. The authentic antique charm is what I love so much about this channel, and the witty banter and frankly godlike art skills are the icing on top.
7:43 “Look Gary there I am, Gary there I am!”
Another absolute banger episode of the Harry Gold Show! I love the commitment to the old timey TV aesthetic during the ads. If only there were more KZheadrs like you who create art and not just content. As for the caricature, it's gotta be Asmongold!
Do you think they intentionally make these artstyle swaps bad cause they know that it’ll get more engagement from people?
even harry acknowledges rise of the tmnt more than nickelodeon
SEVERELY underrated guy his work is actually a hidden gem
Does anyone else notice that at 17:54 (The fixed design for TLH), Harry confuses Appa's beard for a leg?
Just as I finished binge-rewatching your whole video catalogue? Oh, Harry Gold of the Harry Gold Show, you spoil me!
Anything for you, Roy!
The only KZheadr that truly gets me excited whenever I see they updated. And the quality just keeps getting better. The man knows how to fascinate me
This video actually made me break out of my morning grogginess with that intro, thank you Harry!
The amount of effort you put into each video… absolutely incredible!!
I think you’re the only KZheadr who’s sponsored segments I watch all the way through every time because you just put so much effort into them! Edit: Is that Asmond Gold at the end?
I think you’re right on that, the headphones definitely match
If Transformers Earthspark comes up again in one of these, I recommend looking at Nick Roche's art! He was the art director of the series and he wrote + illustrated in many of the Transformers comics published by IDW! Still wouldn't capture the exact 3D animated style of the show, but it would be another interesting style to tackle! Also I'm honored to be among the first to witness Appa Rugrats Style lmao
yeah, seconding, was about to say the same thing about Earthspark, Roche's style was definitely an influence on the character outcomes. there is also 2d concept art, though not cartoony, of the show's characters, not sure what artists but I know I've at least seen some of Thrash. and i would say the humans at least do have their own defined stylizations to them, rather than being generic, compared to other 3d designs, while the animals and such are generic.
I demand a separate video for "Appa Rugrats Style"!
Harry Gold is the true Avatar here, master of all art styles. Also that caricature of your fellow Gold, Asmon, is genius. Knew who it was from the mouth alone.
These people just actually don't know the difference between art styles and costumes.
Didn’t even REALIZE it was a gangdam style parody until way too late. Not cringe at all. I love this show and everything you choose to do with it and on it. Please keep it up.
And might I say for you first "3d" render, you NAILED it, maybe bc you made it out to seem worse, but it looks SO good. And the way appas face is visible in his chest is so cool. At this point whoever is running nicks socials just WANT to see you recreate characters in these styles lmao
Okay but the transformers design was brilliant. I did not expect that. Harry Gold never disappoints!
Omg the animation in the beginning was amazing ❤
This man’s artistic abilities scare me
This is absolutely some of the best content on KZhead. Honestly has so much charm!
Your writing and jokes are truly exceptional; not often am I entertained by an add (for Skillshare of all things). I think I found a new show to tune myself in!
Thank you for putting in the effort to do these properly. I quite like the Maximal Appa for what its worth.
All these animated segments are extremely endearing and make this video well worth the wait You’ve got more courage than I do making a full Gangnam style parody in your video btw haha and the caricature is Asmongold
Thankee sir! Someone had to gangnam those styles, so I took one for the team
Haha don’t worry I’ll take the next one
16:51 Oh my god the Annoying Orange bit was so good as a surprise.
i absolutely love the Scooby-doo, Dexter's Lab, and Powerpuff Girls takes on Mandy!! She looks absolutely adorable (and grumpy haha)
Considering that it's not a art style you work with, the transformer turned out pretty good. We can't really expect you to be able to do everything. If the hypocrisy really bothers you that much, you can always reach out to a 3D artist next time and do a little bit of collaborative work.
idk how but every video this channel puts out blows me away, you can FEEL the love and effort that’s put into it. even small bits are given tons of effort, it’s so refreshing to see in an age of monotony. also, love the asmongold caricature lol
0:47 Fairly odd appa: please help me get out of this nightmare.
Yeah he certainly looks fairly odd alright Why he look like that
6:25 Keep this in MIND: *THE REASON WHY THE RISE MOVIE WAS A NETFLIX EXCLUSIVE IS BECAUSE VIACOM HAVE NO INTEREST ON KEEPING ROTTMNT ALIVE, & IT SHOWS STILL TO THIS DATE*
It genuinly feels wrong to watch harry's videos for free
Yo Harry, could you stop being peak for 5 seconds? Also, MoistCritikal?
Thats what I thought too I was like “Is….is that….Charlie??” I don’t think I’ve seen his teeth showing enough to consider that a specific trait of his, but everything else is very Charlie
Tbh, I'm glad they are still making those terrible style swaps so you have were to make more content, I really really love these. Also, that ad was just so cute and well done!
Your animation is so good, can’t believe how much skill you have. Very dedicated to your craft, it’s really inspiring!
Technically, because of that crossover with KND, Mandy’s design in that universe would still be the same as her regular look. Shared universe technicality, I guess. But I definitely prefer your artwork as opposed to the “official” stuff.
2:55 I kinda wanna work at an octagon factory after hearing that
0:50 This will sadly forever be ingraved in my memory.
oh that caricature is a billion percent moistcritikal also i'm kind of surprised you didn't make spongebob-appa an isopod or some other crustacean, or at the very least entertain the idea. his shape's literally perfect for it lol
11:42 The part of the opera singing didn't have to be so humiliating for the poor girl.
