Fan Art Friday: Garfield by Jim Davis

Happy October, Happy Black History Month and Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! Today I'll be showing only one fan art today. This fan art was a pen sketch then modified on Photoshop.

Today's Fan art is about the comic strip and cartoon series Garfield by Jim Davis. I came across this series back in the 90's. It was a show that I really enjoyed thoroughly.  There were many other funny and exciting characters in the series but Garfield will always be my favourite. I loved the concept that Garfield was not like any other cat. I loved the fact that he ate all kinds if food that humans would eat. I loved the fact that he loved lasagne. I remember while I was at my auntie's house a couple a months ago I saw the new version of Garfield and I was very surprised to see it in 3D. I thought it was good and it's quite nice to show to a new generation of kids. Here's the drawing. I hope you like it:

There is be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting, have a great month and please leave a comment.

Fan Art Friday: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles by Kevin Eastman Peter Laird , Calcifer from Howls Moving Castle by Diane Wynne Jones and Megara from Disney's Herucles

Happy September and Happy Fan Art Friday today I'll be showing three drawing that are all in colouring pencils.

The first fan art is of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. I'm a big fan of the turtles and I have been watching the TV during the 90's. It's awesome, great and spectacular. My favourite turtles was either between Raphael and Donatello.  I loved everything about the fanchise. The movies, the cartoon and the live-action series. I think the only thing that I have haven't seen ore read is the comics. I would love to read them some day. There might be possibility that I might draw more characters from this series. I think it is timeless and it has been very appealing to every generation who have come across them either through the comics or TV. I don't think I can every get tired of them.:

The next fan art is of Calcifer from Howl's Moving Castle by Diane Wynne Jones. The movie was directed by Hayao Miyazaki. Although I haven't read the book I have watched the Studio Ghibli movie and  I think it is incredible. I've watched both the  Japanese and English version and surprising both of the was really good. I decided to draw Calcifer because he was hilarious in both versions. He also looked quite cute too. Although he is fire I really wanted to hug him after watching the movie. I decided to make him very cute in this drawing:

The third and final fan art for today is of Megara from the Disney movie Hercules. This is a great movie. Around the time it was released here in the UK, it was advertised everywhere. It was so big that the premiere was shown on TV too. I was very intrigued. However I did not watch it until it was on the Disney Channel. I really enjoyed and Megara was my favourite. I adore the fact that the story was set in Ancient Greece as I was fascinated about Greece when I was very young. I've drawn Megara quite randomly during this week and I thought that it will be awesome to great to shown here on my blog.:

There will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting my blog. Please write a comment.

Fan Art Friday: Bungle and George from Rainbow by Pamela Lonsdale

Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! Today I'll be posting two fan arts from a children's programme. Both of these sketches were pen sketches and then changed during Photoshop.

These two characters are Bungle and George from the children's programme Rainbow by Pamela Lonsdale. This is an response to the drawing of Zippy that I created last year during this month. After drawing of Zippy, I felt that it would be great to draw the other characters. Both turned out to be really good but I think I've made Bungle very creepy. He was drawn from memory. I'm quite impressed with George. He looks likes he's sparkling.:

There will be more fan art next week thanks for visiting and please leave a comment.

Fan Art Friday: Popeye the Sailor by E.C Segar, Count Duckula by Cosgrove Hall, Dangermouse by Brian Cosgrove and Mark Hall and Felix the Cat by Otto Messmer and Pat Sullivan

Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! I hope you're all having or had a great Friday wherever you are. Today I'll be showing four fan arts. All of these were pencils sketches then colour was added on Photoshop.

The first one for today is Popeye and Olive by E.C Segar. This is another childhood cartoon that I watched and I absolutely adored it. He's amazingly cool and I loved that when he was stuck in a dark situation he would have his can of Spinach. He has a love interest which was Olive. She's pretty awesome too. The cartoons were amazingly funny and it certainly put a smile of my face. Earlier this year, I read the comic and it just as hilarious as the cartoon. I'm really impressed with this drawing that I've done and since they are love hearts present in this drawing, I thought I'd create something linking to  Valentine's Day:

The next fan art is of Count Duckula by Cosgrove Hall. It's another cartoon that I watch during the 90's and it was amazingly funny too. Count was in fact a duck that never drank blood, but loved food. He had a butler called Igor and a maid called Nanny. There were great moments where Nanny would say quotes like 'Ducky-Boos'. There was another quote that I quite adored, which made me laugh from time to time. I won't reveal what it is. If you ever get the chance to what it is you'll probably know what it is.  There have been an array of characters that appear and were really cool. There was even an narrator who was really really scary....well it was scary for me back in when I was kid. The narrator wasn't quite scary at the beginning as he introduced the story by towards the end he creates an evil laughter that shook me to the core, it even gave me nightmares. Over time I got over it:

The third fan art is of Felix the Cat by Pat Sullivan and Otto Messmer. It was another cartoon that I watched as a child back then I had huge fascination about cats, I still do today. I thought I'd draw him reading. From watching this cartoon, I really wanted a black cat.... I never did get one. Aw, well. LOL:

The fourth and final fan art for today, is of Dangermouse by Brian Cosgrove and Mark Hall . I didn't watch this until I was 14. But it was really awesome. It's a parody of a mouse who is a British Spy. He has a sidekick called Penfold. He's quite cool. The theme song was cool and it's something that stuck it my head for ages:

As it is Valentine's day next week, I will be approaching a different view of fan art. I can't say what it is. I really don't want to spoil it. Thanks for visiting my blog and please leave a comment.

Fan Art Friday: Arale from Dr.Slump by Akira Toriyama, Sheridan and Jason from Fruit Machine by Mimi-Evelyn, Botan from Yu Yu Hakusho by Yoshiro Togashi and Kanjiyama Mime from Nihongo Quick Lesson by NHK

Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! I hope you're all having a brilliant week and a brilliant month. As this is the last day of January. I thought I'd show you four fan arts. All of these fan arts were pencil sketches and then colour was added on Photoshop.

The first fan art if of Arale from the manga Dr.Slump by Akira Toriyama. I started reading the first volume this week and it left me laughing a lot. This comic was first published in Japan in 1980, Then published in English in the mid 2000's. I've drawn Arale slightly older but she still looks quite nice. I'm quite impressed of it:

The next fan art is of Jason and Sheridan from the comic Fruit Machine by Mimi-Evelyn. I decided to draw as astronauts. This is the drawing that would have been showed on January 10. This is the second fan art that is based on the christmas drawing that I created in December. I am impressed with what I've done, but I find it quite surprising that I tackled a science theme:

The next fan art is of Botan from Yu Yu Hakusho by Yoshihiro Togashi. I remember reading this series back in 2007. The series is brilliant and I have a lot of compassion from the main character Yusuke and some of his friends. He goes through a lot of challenges but still shows himself strong. I've already read volume 12, and I'll be hoping to read the next volume so soon. I might even draw my favourite character from the manga soon. I've also watched the anime which is really good. The English dub is really good and I have yet to watch the original:

The fourth and final fan art for today is of Kanjiyama Mime from a segment called 'Feel it, Grab it' in a programme called Nihongo Quick Lesson by NHK. I watched this series back in 2009 on NHK World  I really miss watching this show because when I began studying Japanese, I always watched the show to gather a much more understanding of the language. Kanjiyama Mime, mimes words and says it in Japanese. He does this really well and I'm always impressed and amazed. I salute NHK for creating this series because it proved to make much help when studying. I've drawn him from memory. So it could be slightly wrong:

The will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting my blog and please leave a comment. Enjoy your weekend.
