BIO:

I was born in the year 20XX and sent back into the past via space capsule to prevent Judgement Day. I think they sent me back too early, because nothing is really happening yet. So, until I get the call, I'm usually just sitting around, readin' comics, playin' videogames, and drawrin' pictures.

LIFE GOAL:

- To get the power-up and save the princess. Will settle for steady job with decent healthcare plan.

Bearhug (NEW CHALLENGER series)

Daddy is on a roll. Now presenting, Bearhug!


Click for Big

Aaaand in honor of the re-release of Marvel v.s. Capcom 2, special Mecha Zangief variant!


Click for Big

A Couple of Notes:

- Pretty sure this is my favorite one I've done so far. I had a lot of fun putting this one together.

- This is the first in the series (so far) to not make use of the thick, bold outlines. The reason for this was so that his scars could effectively blend into the background. I think it makes for a more attractive final piece.

- Every other New Challenger entry is going to have a variant, be it a CE edition color like Slow Your Beast Roll, or something more complicated like this one. Yes, Vega will most likely have a variant. Yes, it will most likely be mask / unmasked variants.

- I work directly from Capcom art for reference, and every piece for Zangief was all about showcasing the package. Seriously, wtf Capcom.

Oh shit! Mech Zangief completely caught me off guard hahaha.

That is a mighty package, indeed. Those pointy little feet make me think of Bugs Bunny tip-toeing around in a cartoon or something.

Also, when all is said and done with this series, you are going to have the longest profile sidebar in Dtoid history.

@Bulkmailer;

Mech Zangief catches everyone off guard. With his charming personality, of course.

@Char;

Yeah, I'll probably end up having to do some creative consolidation. Also, tiny feet on large characters is always funny. Always.

Awesome. And every time you see properly proportioned feet on large characters it’s a lost opportunity.

Nice piece :) And whilst reading, I coincidently thought the same as Char before reading his comment, all your art is going to take up a long space :]
