It's been a while since I last cblogged. A
good while. I'm still alive, as the work I do on the Destructoid comic no doubt proves, but I guess I have neglected my old art blogging roots. So to make up for all the time I should have been here, I propose a huge unload of (mostly) all the stuff I've drawn in the last couple of weeks.
Are you ready?
Here it goes. (It's doing that thing where it stretches the images to a silly size again. D: Look through them on the gallery at the bottom for the proper resolution.)
First off, some character work done for the comic, I do these mostly for colour reference and the like, just to make sure things are kept somewhat consistent through the story. And let me tell you, trying to keep a story that's dictated purely by user comments is no small task.

This was me experimenting with more dynamic angles.
Next up, some quick videogame inspired pieces, conveniently ordered by series!
Sonic the Hedgehog

Tails
Super Mario
Tanooki Mario
Frog Mario
Boo
This is me trying something different, thought it'd be a nice change from the block colours I normally use.
Pokemon
Bulbasaur
Ivysaur
Venusaur
Charmander
My favourite Pokemon!
Charmeleon
I'm really happy with this one, I wanted to give Charmander and all his evolutions more of a dinosaur look, I hated the stumpiness of the original designs.
Charizard
Squirtle
Wartortle
I'm planning on drawing all the original 151 Pokemon... so here's hoping I'll get it done!
Whew... there we have it. Hopefully that'll make up for my absence. Those that follow me on Twitter may have seen most of these already, so feel free add me on there if you'd like. The main reason I have a Twitter account is so I can stalk Nathan Fillion. He's
dreamy.
Also, I'm open to do commissions too, so email me if you need anything done and I'll get back to you and maybe we can work something out. :D (my email address is on the sidebar>>)
Hope you all enjoyed this picture blog! Get in touch if you'd like anything converted to a wallpaper!
All 151 pokemon would be the most epic thing ever.
This helped to raise my spirits.
You are the most amazing person I've ever not met.
Fucking awesome man.
Holy Shit! Awesomeness Explosion!
I'm amazed by your incredibly talented skills every single time I see a drawing by you. I've indeed seen quite a lot of it already but that doesn't diminish my amazement.
I love it, keep it up Mikey!
(p.s. have you gotten my e-mail from last Thursday?)
I <3 Mikey. So very much.
That Boo+Mushroom one is epic.
Mikey, you're the best. Good luck with the 151 Pokémon thing, it will be epic.
Brilliant.
Thank you all. :)
Also, if you don't mind not doing the 151 pokemon in order, I'd really appreciate a drawing of Cubone. He's my all-time favorite .
Awesome as usual. I love the Boo picture.
Dude, that latest CTZ drawing...Wow...
Kick butt art stuffs. Always awesome to see a portfolio cracked open.
There is so much awesomeness in this blog, it's about to explode all over the Cblogs. Someone get a containment unit in here. This shit is HOT HOT HOT!!!!
Mikey you are the man!
Excellent as usual! You're making me look bad! >:[
Respect, Mikey. <3
I love the Wartortle. I've always had a soft spot for him, those ears and fangs on a little turtle are just too awesome. Really these are all great, though. I love seeing your stuff.
Oh shit! If Togail says your good... damn, you ARE good.
Where's Blastoise, dammit!?!?
jk That's some amazing stuff there, man. It blows my mind how much talent there is in this community.
THIS is why I'm getting your art tattooed on me. Great work, champ.
wow.
epic work as always mate :)
That Wartortle is the shit!
Amazing style, I just love it.
POKEYMANZ! I love looking at drawings and art made by the destructoid community. They're always so good!
Top Sauce again, Mikey! Damm, I'm jealous!
OH. MY. GOD.
Amazing. Simply amazing work as ever. I think I have to say my favourite is the Tanooki Mario :D So cute!
Also, I claim Arcanine or Snorlax :]
Awesome.
These were fantastic Mikey, next time toss up some of your Paint adventures sketches, some of the cbloggers haven't had a chance to see those and they are hilarious.
GIR?
HOW DO YOU DRAW GOOD
Sham - WOW!
That Bulbasaur is now my desktop background<3
So at PAX can I frame/have you personally sign the combo queen image? that would make my century.
hi-five me please Mikey.
I love your art so much it makes me want to dance in a field of posies. And I don't dance, or do posies.
You know what would be fucking amazing? Seeing you in charge of the art in some sort of cool 2d platformer or fighter. If something came out with your love injected into it, goddamn I'd be on that like flies on shit.
Keep up the damn fine work.
