Description
He tugs at them 8|I drew this before finishing Tools of Destruction. I was watching the gametrailers video review for it and one thing they commented on was how the game has one or two heartstring tugging moments in it, and this image basically smacked me upside the head and would not leave till I drew it.
This picture also dictated how I draw Ratchet from now on XDDD maybe looking a little older but I'm definately loving the cartoonier look instead of the super realistic style I usually end up using. I forgot being toony can be so much fun!
I wanted Ratchet to look naughtier than this, but this is as much as I could manage I'm afraid XDD but I won't be modest. I love this picture!
And yes. Barefoot. Why? Because I love Ratchet's "I-will-fuck-you-up-if-I-kick-you" taloned feet XDDD

This is really cute and very well coloured! What always makes me wonder is how Ratchet wears his boots over those pointy claws of his...maybe he has to trim them before putting them on! >w<

Wow, amazing job! I love your style.
The PS3 games are my favorites, because of these moments. Made me care about Ratchet and Clank a lot more than I did about them in the PS2 games.

Ratchet in this case looks like some sort of parasite. Could you make a pic. of him being taken off the heartstrings (maybe by a doctor or whoever owns the heart) that wold be hilarious!

All of your Ratchet art workings are beautiful, and this takes the cake! Although I do love your pirate shanty, this one is just so adorable, and its quite out of character for the Lombax on SO many levels. Because of this, I had to make a new faves collection category. Thank you! =^-^=

Out of Character? D8;; m..maybe.. I.. ..I guess
But thank you 8D I'm quite happy it caused you to make a whole new collection

I mean, think about it: It's such a cutesy non-comical less bad assed side of Ratchet that isn't exactly often seen or shown. We may see more of this along with other heart tugging moments come the next game this September.

Oooh! I am SO happy you said September!! I've been aiming for October because I'm not too sure when the US's "fall" is. Yay! one month less to wait for it!
And yeah, I guess the overly cartoony style isn't very Ratchet, I wanna try and pump some testosterone into him, I draw him too cutsey

Perfectly drawn and ultra-awesome, this is totally supreme in so many ways. Love the gears in the back and Ratchet's super cute eyes. Really like the mix between retro, no shoe and cartoon style look, and new generation outfit, fangs, and tiny bit older look. All Ratchet. All awesome.

Aww thank you so much! 8'D as an old fart fan of the series I'm glad to hear it shows just HOW old of a fart fan I am XDD
I'm also very glad to hear he does look older 8D;; I know he's not a kid any more but for some reason my fangirl-senses refuse to let me draw him TOO macho. He's not THAT old after all. And the fangs were essential >( I LOVE that they gave him fangs in the new games!
ANYWAY *Fangasming too much* thank you so much X3

I nearly cried at the end, but I prevented it by giving out a long "Nuuuuuuuu!" Brilliant game...just...wow.
And I love how you did this...! Ratchet is so unbeliebably cute here, I'm loving that background too, it's really nice how you managed to get the cogs in there somehow as well. Did you use brushes, or did you do them yourself?
Lovely work! Faved and Collected!

I used a brush that came with one of the issues of the ImagineFX magazine, but frankly after browsing dA I've found some better ones for future pictures XD
And Yes the game was brilliant! It's replaced the original as my favourite in the series, and that's a HUGE feat!
thanks for the compliments! I'm glad you like

This is adorable. Just, adorable. I cant get over Ratchet's FACE. Geeheehee.
I also really like the lineart
I would suggest a couple small things though..well actually one small thing one big thing xD Maybe put lines around where the strings are coming from the heart to further show that they're connected to the heart.
And the big thing is that his hand is backwards 
Great picture though
