Description
Apparently there are movies being made for both these series, so I thought I'd crank out a fanart for these now before they got plastered all over the place and everything got all crappy. Enjoy!Related content

1. A VERY determined Penelope.
2. A VERY psychotic Speed. (Ever seen the villainous motorcycle racers in the famous A-ha video for "Take on Me" ...?)
Great work!

"Take on Me" is a pretty great video. I'd love to see a music video about these two made for Cartoon Network. Glad you like the pic!

Who will win this race? I bet everything that i havein Penelope because she's my favourite and I bet that the Compact pussycat can outrun the Mach 5 anytime Penelop wants! The race is on, and now we have to wait who wins it.
I love this work of yours, it really is cool to see Penelope in an anime style. Keep it up!!!

I Like the idea, a LOT!
But surely Racer (or Go) would spend most of his time rescuing penny!

Actually yeah, I guess he would. But who's to say that wouldn't be a fun story? Maybe Trixie keeps putting Penelope's life in danger so she can have Speed all to herself.

Waitwaitwaitwait....Pitstop's getting her own film!? Hmmm...I knew Racer was but Pitstop...I use to love watching her show and Wacky Racers. She was my fave. Now I'm not sure what to think. *oh please don't shame her name pleeease?!
Love her outfit and the action Speed in the background!

I heard about the Pitstop movie a while back, so I don't know for sure if it's still happening. Maybe if
Speed Racer's a hit, the Pitstop movie will get into gear.

Cheesegoddess In reply to mallaard [2008-01-11 00:58:51 +0000 UTC]
Hmm, I can see that happening. I hear the action in Space is suppose to be very awesome, but who knows. Gee I wonder what they would do with the Pitstop movie if they did make one. IF they try to kind of follow the show or do something completely different.

I think it would certainly be a fun race to watch. Both these racers are loaded to the brim with gadgets, gizmos, and gimmicks. It would be like a combination of NASCAR and Robot Wars, which sounds pretty awesome to me.

It's a spinoff from Wacky Races, in which she was one of the regular characters. They gave her a new premise for a show called The Perils of Penelope Pitstop, and the mood and aesthetic were based on a movie that was set in the late 1800s. It's a very fun and faced-paced show, and it has a complete series DVD collection now. It's definitely one I'd like to see revisited, not so much as some "cool" new action show, but rather as a completely off-the-wall series by someone like Frederator or Gainax.

Starring Mathew Fox as Speed Racer... odd choice eh?
Ah, crazy use of colours! I'm a total fan of eye-bleedingly bright and mixing unorthodox stuff together. For some reason, I love how you've colored his teeth, and the text at the bottom.

I read that Christina Ricci will play Trixi (hot!) and John Goodman will be Pops, so that alone is reason enough to have hope for it. I wonder if there'll be a monkey, or maybe CG monkey. I really don't know how they're gonna play this story, hopefully not like some kind of 2 Fast 2 Furious sort of thing. Racer X better kick all the ass too.

Buuya In reply to mallaard [2007-07-28 22:54:06 +0000 UTC]
Haha, I meant to say that he was playing Racer X... Speed is being played by a young guy I vaguely recognize. I think Ricci's a good choice for Trixi; she looks like an anime character already
Oh god. CG Monkey.

This is awesome. I've always been a huge speed racer "fan" (in the same sense that I'm a godzilla fan and 4kids one piece fan) and you did him a ton of justice while bringing a whole new level of character to the guy. He's freaking BROCK SAMSON CRAZY which is a major but hugely fitting approach to the depth of him, since he's always pretty calm driving around and nobody who drives that fast looks as calm as he does.
As for Penelope, I'm really not familiar with her at all...I know I've heard it before but that's not the point. The point is it's a great rendition regardless of knowledge about the character. Foxy!

I'm not very familiar with the newer Penelope they used a few years ago in that web flash animation, but I like the idea of updating the character. I love "The Perils of Penelope Pitstop," and would like to see an updated version of that as an animated series. Like most updated 'toons I'd like to see, I'd make Gainax do the animation for it, and make it as gonzo crazy as possible. The original show was pretty nutty already in terms of plot and action, so it wouldn't be a big stretch to make it FLCL crazy.

A fight between Pops and the Gang would be hilarious! Throw in Spridle and Chim-Chim and you've got something wonderful happening. And then there could be a side story where Racer X is investigating a terrorist plot by Dick Dastardly to detonate a bomb at a big racing event. Fun!

Nicktoons Network is also making a tv revival of Speedracer, through the studio I work for as well.

There have been a number of revisions already in the past fifteen or so years. I remember an American one from the early or mid nineties, and then more recently an anime version that I think showed on Nick. Let's hope your guys get it right where the others apparently didn't.

I know that when Cartoon Network was making music videos in nods to old classic Hanna Barbara cartoons, there was a Flash-based music video starring a more sexy, edgy Penelope Pitstop. God, I miss those videos.

I was reading last night about how Wildbrain, the studio behind those E-Surance commercials with the cartoon spy chick, made a Penelope Pitstop web cartoon for CN, among others. Maybe they made that one, I'm not sure. I'd like to see it though.

They both drove car #5, too.
Penelope: "How's bout a little old race, y'all?"
Speed: "Trixie will kill me for meeting with another woman for a midnight race...but a challenge is a challenge!"

mallaard In reply to Artytoons [2007-07-15 22:29:00 +0000 UTC]
To be honest, it would probably be a fairer race between Penelope and Trixie. Speed would probably destroy her in a serious race, if we were going with the old-school version of Penelope.

I got a feeling that Trixie will destroy Penny... without using a car. Or maybe, she'll use Mach 5 as a weapon, y'know, she's jealous as tigress...

before cartoon network redid their sytes to look like the crap they are now, there was a P. Pitstop flash that made here cool as hell (able to hold her oun up to Speedy). but now i can't find it anymore

I've tried finding that flash too, because I've never seen it but everyone says it kicked ass. I think it was done by the guys who make the E-Surance spy-girl commercials, so I'll bet it was awesome.
