Description
Another art trade, this time for , the prompt being Mom and her sons, Walt, Larry, and Igner from Futurama.Where to begin... well, firstly, I thought it was awesome that *kik0thek1ller suggested these particular chars; they really are underloved in the fandom :c So I got to thinking.. Mom and sons, Mom and sons... what would be something fun to do with them?
Of course, the first thing that jumped to mind was SLEEPOVER! 8D After which I said nah that's silly... but then I really thought about it and started musing about what type of pajamas they'd wear and a mental image of Mom in hair curlers came to mind and... this happened xD; The concept just grabbed me I guess Px
The idea I had seemed to be best expressed in comic form so I went with it. It seemed to me that being the oldest, Walt would take the role of telling the scary story since it'd give him the chance to show his authority by scarin the bejeezus out of his younger siblings. Yep~ The situation might seem a little farfetched, but I think it sort of makes sense - with the absence of a father figure and such a domineering mother figure, who even calls herself 'Mom' to the public, I think they'd have some trouble growing up. Her sons can heed her commands in a competent way and behave like adults to the world, but privately, I think they'd retain some childishness.
In an artistic sense, this is a very pleasing piece for me to have completed AKA I'm pretty proud of it! 8D It took longer than usual, but it was well worth it. I loved working on the expressions, the details of their clothing/objects around the room, and the lettering/word bubbles <3 I dunno if the lighting makes complete sense, but I wanted you to be able to see the details of the stuff in their makeshift tent B: It still seems a little too dark, but eh. The bag of chips to the far right is supposed to be Bachelor Chow but I didn't put the font; just felt like pointing that out.
Note: texture for the red blanket was found on this site: [link]
Credit for the title on the DVD (which is a little hard to read but says: Return of the Doomdroidz: Pt III The Doomening) goes to ~BananaBlue
Ooh yes and the scary story! It's supposed to be about a runaway suicide booth that goes around massacring everyone. In the first ep, one of the choices of death modes besides "quick and painless" is "slow and horrible".
Well that's all I have to say! Hope you like it, kik0! =]
Mom, her sons, and suicide booths belong to misters Matt Groening and David X Cohen.

great! I adore the use of shading and lightning here. And yes, these three don't get enough love here. A shame, really, since they're hilarious.

OH MY GOD! This is HILARIOUS! There's not enough fanart of these guys, even though they're awesome and funny characters. I always thought that Walt was the coolest, but after watching "Bender's Game", Igner is my most favorite in this trio now. <3
I was only half expecting the ending to occur that way, but it was still FREAKING HILARIOUS when it happened!

Teehee, I am so glad that people are getting a laugh out of this x) one of my attempt at humour succeeding? Must be the apocalypse!
I agree, Mom's sons aren't given nearly as much love from the fandom than they deserve! I can't pick a favourite, I just like them all equally heh, but yea, Igner got even cooler after Bender's Game what with him turnign out to be the Professor's son and the "We're OWL exterminators!BD" line
Oh Igner, Oh all of them~ such a fabulous take on the 3 stooges thing, yet deeper chars than mere slapstick <3

Nawww, me finally thinking of a Futurama fanfic without it being inspired from another already existing concept shall be the cause of the apocalypse!
Those guys are just too cool! LOL, personally my favorite line from Igner and his older brothers in "Bender's Game" was this one:
Igner: "But if I'm the only one here, how could I have seen anyone? 8D"
Larry: "You know, he's got a good point, Walt. *is slapped by Walt* Ow!"
I know. Matt Groening turn anything he thinks of into something mind-boggingly EPIC.

Ha; awesome! I love it! And it seems so appropriate. Walter's usually just the opposite...stoic, a little like Mr. Spock. But yes, definitely a "missing scene" that works really well.

Teehee thanks! I'm glad you think this works, because I aim for a sense of plausability above all else in my fanworks~
aha 'Walter', huh? xD I've never heard anyone call him that lol But yes, it is nice to see him relax once in a while :}
