Description This is an entry to a contest Capcom is holding for the new DuckTales game, “DuckTales: Remastered.”

The guidelines is to either draw in the Ducktales characters into the box art of a Capcom video game, or “duckify” a character from a Capcom game.

I sorta did both.

I chose a box art from an old 80’s Nintendo game from Capcom that I was always very fond of, “Little Nemo: the Dream Master.”

The box art expresses sheer imagination. I loved it since I was a kid, and wanted to “recreate” it one day. I finally got my chance with an added “DuckTales” favor to the piece—which—Is always fun to draw in whenever you get a chance.

UPDATE: WOO HOO!!! I won a "DuckTales: Remastered" Press Kit from Capcom, which includes:a collector's edition golden NES cartridge and other treasures. I'm as happy as Scrooge McDuck swimming in his money pit!!!

The art was done on 14in X 17in Bristol Board with Sharpies, Prismacolor markers, and color pencils.

Love the amalgamation.

For some reason, Capcom's Little Nemo always reminded me of their Ducktales game.

Thank you, oldmanwinters! I believe, Capcom reused the "Mega Man" engine for many games, like "Nemo," and "Ducktales."

Oh, yes, the Mega Man influence is very strong.  Darkwing Duck especially played like a MM clone!

How were you able to scan the image this way?

Hello, AnimeCutiePie, thank you for commenting! There was no scanning involved, I took a picture on my Canon, then adjusted later on photo editing software. I do not a scanner large enough to perfectly capture the image. So, taking a picture is a quicker and cheaper way, though, I'm sure a scanning would have a higher quality image.

For as long as I've used scanners, something of the image quality doesn't show what I would like it to be. Even with making some adjustments.
