Sephiroth!

So tonight I decided I would install Corel Painter X and make a somewhat permanent switch from Photoshop to color all of my artwork. After 4 hours I whipped out this piece of Sephiroth, Final Fantasy VII's resident badass.

Hands down, the most badass villian since Skeletor, Mumm-Ra and Megatron to ever grace anyone's television screen or fan-fic. I love Sephiroth! To be quite honest, at one point as I was wasting away a good 80 hours or so playing Final Fantasy VII back when it first came out on PSOne, I kinda wanted to be Sephiroth.

Wonder what people would say if I had legally changed my name to Sephiroth Jones?

Tigersharks-Mako

You've got a tiger by the tail
Hold on Tigersharks!
Tigersharks!
Look for a human with a tail,
Hold on Tigersharks!

Hold on Tigersharks!"


Not too many people remember this cartoon animated by the same Japanese studio that did Thundercats and Silverhawks, that was originally part of the cartoon block The Comic Strip. I have a few episodes finally, and I've been meaning to post this image for a while. I've only seen 2...count 'em 2...pieces of fanart of Tigersharks on the entire interwebs so make sure you enjoy this piece. Maybe I'll get around to doing the other characters as well.

Continuing to do my job of bringing back old childhood memories...God I miss the 80's!

Evil Eye Candy...jar...

Haha, some of you probably saw the title and were like..."hey, he's finally gonna tell us what it's all about!" Well guess what, you're wrong. Those of you that know should still keep quiet...or I'll break your legs!

Raccoongasm: CALViN! Meets Shelly

To somewhat celebrate the union of my colors with Robbie's comics, I decided to do a picture of my mascot, CALViN! Coonidge meeting his Shelly character in the desert. As always, though I may not have mentioned it before, CALViN! makes friends by presenting them with some sort of explosive...all the time. It could be anything from a bomb, a stick of dynamite or an exploding trout. I decided to go with a cartoon bomb this round, as the exploding trout could get...stinky.

Ever dig through folders on random CDs you've got burned, laying around? I do it from time to time looking for files for whatever reason. Usually, I find something I completely forgot about...like this picture.

There are two Kid Chameleons...the first is a character from an old series of British comic strips in the 1970s. Then there's this kid..the coolest kid in your neighborhood! He has the power to step inside an arcade, kick your ass in the arcade SegaSonic the Hedgehog game, and any other game Sega made, and look badass doing it. How? With masks!

I decided to do the most common mask that people seem to remember from the game for this fictional comic book cover. Would I ever draw a Kid Chameleon comic book? No. I wouldn't draw ANY comic book, as I just don't have that kind of time or patience, but I will waste an entire weekend trying to play through the over 90 levels the game has to offer...ah, good times.

Phone Home Already!

A few days ago I promised my boy Michael Wiggin an alien pic, because I was posting art like crazy and couldn't figure out what else to draw...and he suggested aliens. Since I didn't have any at the time, other than some old sketches, seems like my collection was missing aliens altogether. So this, will be the first alien image in my gallery EVER, and I owe it all to Michael!

Toonz, Aliens, Lizards!

Someone I know wanted aliens. This is an old collection of random sketches I never posted, and it's got a few aliens in it. Here's to you, Michael!
