Re: Derby 86: TV Show Titles Re-Interpreted

Comic Book, Movie and TV Heroes are alot of fun, but the real heroes are the faceless ones we see everyday in uniform doing their part to make us all safe.

Re: Natural Born Kutlery (141 Classic Comics Style)

Inspired by Rick Griffin and Robert Williams of Zap Comix.

Re: Madness: Terrible Sanity

Just completely Awesome you two. Great Job! GMV

Re: Derby #42: Join the Revolution! - Tea Party

Why not actually sit down and enjoy the different teas of the world?
Thanks very much to the feedback and suggestions in the pre-derby thread!

And there is nothing like the comfort of tea - british style, herbal, or green.

PS. I don't know what's up with my submissions, but the thumbnails won't show and the coding is all weird, I have to edit it so my post isn't a big url.

Re: Work: BLOCKS BUILD YOU!

Decided to go a bit subtler than I originally planned, so no slogans, just a sneaky little joke. And the russian text says stuff about building up for others.

Re: Madness: Terrible Sanity

"You like ravens? I'll give you RAVENS!"

Again, the perfect combo of Draxxx artistry and electric crescentdebris colors. Awesome.

Re: Birds: Birds.

Wonderful faces on these birds.

Re: #78: Winter

Beautiful work with the texturing and lines.

Re: Invention (or I had an idea in my kitchen today)

There's been a lot of theories on how it all came about. This is mine.

Re: Flight

BAMF. I expect this to take fursts... It is epic, in a true sense of epicness..if that makes any sense at all.

Re: Pets Derby: Why I Like Cats

For the Pets Derby theme: This grew from a discussion here during a previous derby (How Things Work, I believe). I was commiserating on the woes of moles in the lawn. Well, I have a chipmunk-opolis in my yard. And all I have is a stupid dog.
I realize my limitations as an artist, so this won't win. But if it did, I'd buy me a cat!

Re: Earth Derby: The Tiny Guardian

Dawww-www! Real artistry at work here, bassanimation and as cute as all get out without any sugar. The little guy doesn't even have four tines on his fork, but he's not going to let anything get past him.

My favorite so far!

Re: Da Vinci's Secret Mobile Base (Flight)

I had to check for a second to see if you had him peddling. ;-)

Lovely illustration!

I like this one.

Re: Derby #61 Movie Titles Re-Interpreted - The Usual

Re: Derby #92 Steampunk: Rana roboticus

Re: 'Round About Midnight (#33 lyrics illustrated)

You got my vote. Love the rim lighting, and the almost eerie colors. This is one jazzy shirt.

Re: #145 Spring: Cold Blooded

This was going to be my entry for the spring derby, but I didn't finish it in time. It also works for Dinosaurs. Rawr!

Re: Work: BLOCKS BUILD YOU!

This is really nice! The colors are perfect and so is the size of the design. Also, of course, it's funny :P

Re: #64: Pets - The fantasy of the goldfish

Poor goldfish stuck in a bowl. If only whitecapped freshwater would sweep it away, and they could leap out and be free!
Thanks no1 for the pointers earlier!

Man, all my entries are jinxed... the coding is messed up:/

Re: Heat 2 - Catalyst

For derby #2 - Heat: Catalyst

Flames made out of cats.

There are halftones in this design. I will post a sample soon.

Re: Derby #114 - Cooking - Bacon.Know It.Love It

Derby #114 - Cooking

Bacon. Know it. Love it.

Look at that pig; he’s angry. He knows what you’re thinking when you look at him. He knows you don’t value him for his mind, just his savory meaty parts. There was a time when he was hopeful, when he thought people would appreciate him for who he was. But he watched and learned how the world works. He knows that he’s just too delicious to resist. There’s a part of him that actually relishes that fact; a sort of twisted pride in his fate. He faces it with a steely glare and a determined mindset. He’s gonna be the best damn bacon ever. LIVIN’ THE DREAM MOM!!! Livin’ the dream.

Twin Chinese Dragons, composed entirely from a fragment of a poem by John Milton.

"But now begins,for from this happy day
Th'old Dragon under ground
In straiter limits bound
Not half so far casts his usurped sway
And wrath to see his Kingdom fail
Swindges the scaly Horrour of his foulded tail"
JOHN MILTON

Hi Res Copy here

Re: #121: Propaganda - Monsters!

I missed out on the Propaganda Derby, so here's my crack at it.

Monster propaganda’s got a rich history. It’s always good for educational purposes, and helps the new recruits remember tips on the job. Of course, in this situation, the monsters have the upper hand. Nature’s gonna call, kid. It’s just a matter of time. Four colors on cranberry (“cran-scary?”). Hope you like it!

Re: #118 Visual Puns: Bear's Waldo?

Inspired by the intricate drawings I loved to study as a kid by Martin Handford, this design pits Waldo in a crowd of bears! As a bonus, each bear is a pun in itself and the design contains over 50 of them. A full list of them is below as well as some detail images and a link to the full composition. Can you spot them all?

Re: 'Round About Midnight (#33 lyrics illustrated)

I don't know..something about the cat's face bothers me. Maybe it's because it looks too human, lol. Love the glowing moon, though.
