Omlette du Homage

I heard the other day that blogs were officially out. Yep. It kinda makes me wonder if there's a board of Internet officials somewhere out there monitoring and mandating every every little trend going in and out. And why nobody told me sooner!... Wow.  I think it's safe to say that it's been a while(it's good to know I'm just as awful with introductions,though).  I've been itchin' to update this for a while but, life just keeps going, y'know?  And sometimes some things just run away from you (this being one of them).  But, I think I've finally got a decent footing again.  Which is why I'm pleased to present you with my latest....

If you've been following this blog you'd know that I promised a specific theme for this blog, so for this entry I'm all about the fanart.  Yep(and the yeps. I'm all about the yeps).  Nothing but B-list (and sometimes C-list) celebrities and fictional characters in this weeks line-up, so if that's not your thing, I guess you're out of luck. (Man, I'm rusty!)



And who's this familiar little half-Hawaiian (?)-half-...half-black(??) cutie?  I remember I had said something about dialing up the realism in the Brenda sketch I did a few entries back, and so I have.  It's not bounds ahead of the first one, but I think it's rounder and shinier enough for a repost.  Also, I don't think I would dare miss out on an opportunity to slip in how amazing she is... See what I did there?   But, alas, I think it's time to say bid adieu to Miss Lowe (tear).  Season 22's already started.  Time to get over her.



Awww yeah. Blanka, BOYYYYYYYY!!! I told ya'll there'd be a Street Fighter in our midst!  When drawing this I realised that after all these years of playing Street Fighter, I had no clue what he was! So I looked it up... The official story behind this character's origins is just so absurd that I think it's better that everybody make up their own (or even stick to the one given in the Jean-Claude van Damme movie)!  Still got mad love for him, though.  And his crazy face-biting...

Speaking of Street Fighter..



DOUBLE-WHAMMY!  Oh, how I despise this man!  Those muthaf*%ken "Tiger!" things he shoots out are the most annoying things ever!  First it's a barrage of high ones, then when you start blocking he goes below the belt, then when you jump, "TIGER UPPERCUT!"... SONOFAB%TCH!... So about the image.  I decided to play around with some fonts and filters again.  I wanted to convey the meaning of the sentence through the font.  I don't think it's that successful.  Just looking at it now, I already see some things that I would have done differently.  Also the picture itself isn't as dynamic and as 3-dimensional as I was aiming for.  But, I still like the idea behind the picture:  I was thinking about how the fight between Sagat and his protege, Adon(Best known for being in the Street Fighter Alpha series.  He was actually in the very first Street Fighter, this isn't widely known since only, like, 13 people have ever played it) would mostly likely have gone.  This shows Sagat not even giving his full attention to it and is Tweetin' his boyz, or something...  I'm a fool, I know.

Shaken. Not Stirred...


The names Martini. Max Martini.  He plays Master Sergeant Mack Gerhardt on The Unit. I had myself a marathon of the TV show the other day after a friend recommended it, and I gotta say: I really enjoyed it. It's a pity it got cancelled...  Anyway, all that watching led to a fairly random sketch of Dirt Diver (That's his codename) looking all badass... And there you have it. I tried to keep it as cartoony as possible in order to maintain my style.  Just widening my scope a bit.


So I'm back.  Again.  I hope you enjoyed this entry 'cause I'm planning on being regular again.  Loads of FuZioN U(That is now officially my abbreviation for FuZioN Universe... Eh?) stuff and other kinds of random sketchery to come.  See you soon!
