Fan Art Friday: Button Moon by Ian Allen, Wimbledon 2014 Pegasus Maximillion from Yu-Gi-Oh by Kazuki Takahashi and Competition Entry: Carly by me and Alan by Fi-Di

Happy July and Happy Fan Art Friday Everyone! Today I'll be posting up four drawings. All of these drawings were pencil sketches then modified on photoshop. Two of the drawing have a space-dreamy theme.

The first drawing that I'll be showing today is of Mr Spoon, Mrs Spoon and Tina-Tea Spoon from the children's programme Button Moon. In this programme the characters are made up of everyday utensils. Each episode reveals an adventure of what Mr Spoon and his family go through. These episodes are quite interesting. I'm amazed of this show is put together. The programme was broadcasted on Thames TV back in the early 80's. Just like the programme Rainbow. The show was also shown the early 2000's on Nick Jr classics. I'm very impressed with this drawing and I'm very happy and pleased that I'll be showing it to you.:

The next drawing is based on Wimbledon 2014. It been going really well so far. I am quite gutted that Murray didn't get through nevertherless. It is an interesting to watch. Back in 2012, I worked at Wimbledon. This was during the Olympics. Seeing Wimbledon now made me miss working there. Even one of my friends asked if I was working there this year. One was because I felt that it is good for anyone to find a sport and play. It really doesn't matter how old you are. I'm looking forward to see how Wimbledon will end. It is very very exciting:

The next drawing is of Pegasus Maximilllion from the anime and manga Yu-Gi-Oh. He's another very interesting character in the series and he came to mind as I drew in as a pencil sketch. He's actually a villain in the first series. In the manga he's seen the the second series Yu-Gi-Oh Duelist. I've only read up to volume 3 or 4 and I've yet to see what will happen oto Yugi and his friends. or what plans Peagasus will unnfold. Just like Seto Kiba. He's a millionaire. In this drawing, I drawn him from memory. It is almost accurate...almost. I thought that I will do a gold background with beige sparks. Here it is:

The fourth and final fan art of today is of Carly and Alan. On Deviantart there's an artist that I'm following. Her name is Fi-Di and she is from Italy. She has created a huge wave of characters for the past couple of years. She's created a competition called 'Date My Character'. She has asked  fan of per FB page, to chose a character created by her and use their own character. The characters should even hang out together or be doing something that it is quite interresting. In my cotest entry. I used my character Carly from a project that I did a couple of years ago with Fi-Di's character Alan. I drew a space-dreamy background for this drawing. It would be great if you could vote for this picture on FB.:

There will be more fan art next week. Thank you for visiting and please write a comment! \(^0^)/

Fan Art Friday: Yu-gi-oh by Kazuki Takahashi and Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi Show by Sam Register

Happy Fan art Friday everyone! Today I'll be showing two fan arts. One of the drawings was as a green pencil sketch the other was inked in 0.5 black pen then it evolved to a digital drawings on Photoshop.

The first Fan Art is of the cartoon Hi Hi PuffyAmiYumi Show by Sam Register. It was shown on Cartoon Network. This was an awesome series that I watched back in my mid teens. it was a brilliant series and I found it fascinating that there was a cartoon based on a famous Japanese group duo. Another thing that I found great was the songs that were played by the duo. It was really awesome and I was left engaged. Lastly they were mini scenes where you would see PuffyAmiYumi on tour, that was cool.  Within the end of each episode the Cartoon network sign was written in katakana before it quickly translated into English. This was another part of the show that I thought was really impressive:

The second and final fan art for today is of Yu-Gi-OH by Kazuki Takahashi. There was a previous drawing that I did of Yugi Motou and the pharaoh which is view in split form. I thought that it would be awesome to create a digital drawing on Photoshop. I'm still waiting to read the next volume of Yu-Gi-Oh Duelist. It's taking a bit long but it's okay. I'll keep on waiting:

There will be more Fan Art next week. Have a great week and make the most of it. Thank you for visiting my blog and please leave a comment! (^_^)

Fan Art Friday: Reliving the Teenage Otaku: Yu-Gi-Oh, Tenchi and Pokemon

Helloo! Every One As it is Fan Art Friday today, I thought I'd show a couple that I did during the week during bus and train journeys to work. These drawing are based on the anime and manga that I read and watch in my teens towards early twenties. It was pretty much when I became an Otaku.

The first one is Yu-Gi-Oh. I absolutely adore the first sires involving Yugi Moutou, Over time when I got to find out how the story changes when he meets a range of friends and enemies, I was awed. In my late teen to early 20's I began to read the manga, I'm half way through 6 volumes through Yu-Gi-Oh Duelist (Which was of translated in to English) and I was even more amazed. Reading the story in comic form was inspiring. There were even some parts that left me really scared. (Seriously ^_^!) I encourage you to read the manga. If you can find it, please read it you'll love for sure. I had you use real cartoon images to get it into proportion. The image is split so you'll see Yami Yugi and Yugi Moto:

The next is Pokemon. It was a huge big deal when I was 12. I watched it every Saturday when it was on SM:TV Live and also on Sky One. This was of course the first series. Overtime there were movies and more series to add on to the segment. It's was inspired by the  Nintendo game too. Oh and I drew this from memory.  Here is as Ash:

Lastly there was the anime series Tenchi: Muyo. This was shown on cartoon network, from the late 90's to mid 00's. It was main about a teenage bout called Tenchi who goes into his family shrine and some how revives Ryoko the space pirate. Over time new characters are introduced into the story and also of shenanigans happen between him and these characters. It was split into three series with different stories. These are Tenchi: Universe, Tenchi in Tokyo and another Tenchi GXP. There was also a spin-off called Pretty Sammy. Once of my favourite characters was called Washu, she a scientist and can create a lot thing. She can even create computer viruses too. I did use reference but this was after I tried drew most of if from memory:
