Description Made on Pokemon Art Academy for the 3DS. This is my first time exporting a file from art academy, so I didn't know that game pasted a watermark on the artworks, and while is not that hard to remove, I decided to leave it to prove that I did in fact used that software to make it. 

As you saw on my previous Animal Crossing Pixel test , I always tend to pick Garfield for this sort of test, mainly because it's a simple design that I've memorized after years of drawing it as kid, and at this point it's also kinda becoming a tradition of mine.

While it's not the most advanced and complex tool to work with, I think I can make some good use of it, so next time I'm going to try to do something crazier that might fit your taste a little bit better.

It's all about practice! you can't expect to draw the best piece of art ever if you're barely learning how the tools works.

If still safe behind the cupboard door that never opens, hopefully yes

I guess they're originals??  .. Bought them all new from a bookstore in the late 80's - early 90's ,,, most are little softcover books (10x15cm??),, inside is b&w comic strips,, colour covers with a paw on the side spine with a number (almost found all of them)
...others are bigger long rectangle size magazine type  (b&w comic strips, colour covers) ..
...and one A4 magazine size Full Colour glossy one by Womans Day / Weekly something ?? 

Most only cost a few dollars, but on a paperboy wage, it took weeks to save up a few dollars !!

I have no idea if they were sold in my country during that time, I got into Garfield very late because the TV programming was a bit behind, so all the merch was probably not up to date with it.

Not sure either,,no Internet back then     I remember those TV Garfield cartoons .. Canned Laughter, then Garfield & Friends ??I think??  Didn't watch a lot of the TV ones,, TV Garfield started (in Australia) long after the comics.

Easiest way to tell with TV, merch & books is the Copyright ©Year.  
That's how I'd put all the books in order that had no Set #'s.

A bit behind can be a bonus, as you can get New old stock !!
First edition Garfield was ©1980 'ish (long rectangle size books)

Scary,,, I might still have most listed on this 'vintage' eBay link

I’m not sure. You’d need to watch the guy to understand or not understand… I can send you the video if you like. I only like him because he’s smart and he’s funnier than Shantae’s creators.

I just wanted to be sure we were on the same page. I know there's people out there that have a hard time getting sarcasm, so I played it safe.

Believe me, I am in fact one of those people. This is just one of the rare instances where I actually got it because of how often I watch the YouTuber.

LinkerArts In reply to Rebelno6 [2018-02-09 16:11:41 +0000 UTC]

Besides, Garfield is not as mainstream as it used to be, so I wouldn't be surprised if a youngling out there doesn't know the difference between Jon Arbuckle and Jim Davis and the fact they would never be involved in a VR project XD Like they don't know much about Garfield to tell that it is a joke.

I saw a couple of episodes recently, it has aged pretty well

Indeed, almost similar to those "toy animatronics" as they appear in the game.

Here's the one picture with Toy Freddy on the stage: vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/fr…

Ahh I see.

I was going to leave it with flat colors and no shadows, but it looked a bit too simple. Besides I wanted to try shading too.
