Description For 's competition she's holding. I was gonna do a small comic for her Lombax characters Keltin and Sproket but 1.) didn't have time and 2.) thought I'd make it simple.

At first I was stuck for ideas but then I thought of this little ditty. Heheh. Since Smash is her char and one of Crash's closest buddies.

I'm also starting to find my style more and more on the straight edge instead of just smooth. At least thats how I picture my art nowadays. I blame too much Invader Zim. ^^

Here you go Lioness. Hope this is to your liking. Sorry theres no bg. I'm so darn lazy. ><

Heheh I like Polar's little grin. I shaded him a little strongly though. Oh and notice the razorback. I drew him without reference. Bah!

I heard this got close to second place! Good effort Shaz. And it's no wonder it almost did; it's a charming pic starring Lioness's favorite game hero Crash. ^^ I hope for his sake; Crash chooses Smash! I can think of all the harm he can cause to the baddies while Crash rides the big guy. I also like how you drew Baby T; Pola, and warthog. (Pura must be hanging out with Coco.) I especially like that prideful look on Pola's face. Cute lil' guy. XD But smash's look is priceless as heanticipates Crash's decision. I tell ya if he chose Smash; Lioness would LOVE it. ^^ Well it was a great entry Shaz. I know Lioness loved it too. Wonderful work as always; though seriously I missed so much of your fantastic work in your gallery! I need to see more.

Heheh thanks again Chris. Like I said I'm happy to know the pic cane close but its also nice to know a much better more throughly worked on pic won the place. That artist deserved it. ^^

Yes I can imagine Smash causing a lot of damage. I think the guy has a lot of crazy energy. Which reminds me of an old pic I still need to colour and submit for Lioness.
I had forgotten to mention where Pura was, and yes, she was with Coco.
Interesting fact. I found my very first Danni piccies and remembered drawing a wolf cub she was gonna have as a pet to ride on. Heheh. Man that was so long ago.

Thanks once again Chris. ^^ More shall be up soon.

shinragod In reply to shaz [2005-08-30 17:54:37 +0000 UTC]

Yeah! There were alot of great artiosts competing for the prize. So I'm sure it was tough for Lioness to come up with her dicisions.

Yeah I think Smash is a real powerhouse too. =-p I see the Zim influence you put in him with his teeth too. Ah yeah; I figured Pura was out with Coco; whereever she went. XD

What was that wolf cubs name by chance? But hey Danni's like the fastest thing alive; can't imagine why she'd transportation.

shaz In reply to shinragod [2005-08-31 23:57:54 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I think thats why I disbanded with the wolf idea. Too samey and well, I made Danni to be fast anyways so there you go. The wolf didn't have a name either. But when I find the sketches I'll put them in scraps.

As for the Zimmy influence, I think I'm finding myself loving Jhonen Vasquez's style more and more. Dunno why. I love the quirky and dramatic, mood to his work. I'd like to do some of that. Especially with my Triple F series, but have it a bit more serious at times. Also with the Crash artwork. And well, everyone knows I can do the Zim artwork. ^^

cool picture shaz. the hog doesn`t like he wants to be chosen though maybe timone`s the only one allowed. well done.

shaz In reply to earthninja [2005-08-26 22:24:12 +0000 UTC]

Thanks Sam. ^^ To tell you, that's not Pumbaa but I think the design of him was in the back of my mind. But the hog is based off of the first Crash Bandicoot game. All these animals (except for the Lion who was created by =lionessb and she's a big fan of the lion king anyway.) were from the Crash 2 and 3 game.

As for the expression yeah, he isn't chuffed about being picked.

Gee, I love the idea of this pic! Very clever and even nicely done, I'm not supriced if you win! *I know it's a little unfair to say that, though*

But nevertheless, they all look cute here... Speedway especially! The warthog reminds me of Pumba, I'm not so sure why... *other than that they're both hogs, of course*

Shaz-man, it's faving time...

shaz In reply to silversister [2005-08-26 19:31:16 +0000 UTC]

Hmm I'm thinking Pumbaa may have been drifting in my subconscious somewhere when I drew the razorback. Thanks for faving as well. ^^ To be honest I'm nervous of winning but at the same time I'm cool about it. Theres a lot of good artists that applied to Lioness's compo. You as well. ^^

Don't stand there too long, Crash. Sooner or later you'll attract a car salesman.

Pwehahaha! That is so funny! I couldn't help but laugh so loud my parents heard me. This indeed is simple, yet hilarious at the same time...!
Smash's grin just killed me when I first saw this, it just reflects the way he is. The style brings the situation alive aswell.

Thanks a bunch Shaz! *adds to list*

Heheh yes, theres nothing like laughing out loud either at home to scare your family or in the public. ^^ I'm glad it made you happy. I feel I always rush on things but hell, sometimes they make happy accidents too. Plus I quite like Smash's expression too. Heheh mind, when I drew him originally, he looked like he was anxious to eat Crash! O.o
