Description
Holy Irk this took me FOREVER to do. The lineart is rather old, from my "early days" drawing ZADR, that's why Zim and Dib are slightly changed. Lookit! I managed to draw Dib's frontal view! Do you know how HARD it is?!? Damn you, Dib's hair!You have no idea how insanely proud I am. I won't hide it, there are some mistakes that make me cringe, but I noticed them too late in the coloring process to be able to correct them easily. Shading was very fun to do, as well as the clothing. I hate drawing the trench coat, though.
Hey, sis! Here's your Armada! ^_-
When I was doodling this on paper, I had Dib and Zim drawn, and you know how much I hate doing backgrounds. So on the blank paper I just scribbled ARMADA where the background should have been. warned me I was going to hate myself afterwards, and had no shame in laughing at me when came the time of drawing said Armada. For those who wonder, I used a screen shot of the big battle in the episode "Dib's wonderful life of doom", taken from Badbadrubberpiggy, and redrew the lines and everything.
As for the storyline behind this... I wrote nothing because I didn't want to hide the image and because I never decided what exactly was happening. My favorite guess is this:
2nd panel, Zim: The game is over, Dib. What are you going to do now?
3rd panel, Dib: ...Take me with you...
But I don't like it enough to put it. If you have better ideas, feel free to suggest! And if it inspires you to write a fic, go ahead! I'd be glad to read it!
This was done the traditional way, scanned, the lineart was redrawn on Photoshop, coloring too, all this with a lot of cursing and procrastinating.
Invader Zim is property of Jhonen Vasquez, but the picture is mine. I mean it, I spent too much time on this to see it stolen without my permission. You want to make a wallpaper, a avatar or something along those lines? Ask before, please.

This looks great! I want to write a short fic on this but I'm still not familiar with the show yet. I'll come back to this awesome idea when I've been at least on Episode 35 of Invader Zim!

no, no, no.. the 2nd panel should say :The game is over, Dib
and the 3rd panel :What are you going to do now?
doesn't that sound more dramatic? er.. yeah, it is in my mind, sorry... ^^'' but I LOVE the very, very first panel. 'cause it shows ZIM in his full glory as the Tallest! X3~~~

Aww, I actually really like that prompt, even if you don't, and this picture's awesome! Dib is incredibly hard to draw from the front, I completely agree, and from behind, that's always irritated me. I always try to draw him side or 3/4, and I've only ever been able to re-create Zim in my own style, never Dib (': DAMN YOU SCYTHE LOCK

I was like, '8D' when I followed this from the ZADR club, because it got bigger. x'D
I'm such a dork...
Anyway! I've read a fic like this once, except...I think Zim saved Dib...and. I don't know, I can't really remember. Because I read so many ZaDr fics that they're hard to find. ^^::
I would write a fic, but...I'm not very good at writing, or staying on top of things. xD
I LOVE this picture though. c: <3

Wow! This is actually the best ZADR fanart I've seen so far. When I read this, my mind was going like this in their dialogue:
1st Panel-
Dib: No... It can't be...
2nd Panel-
Zim: Face it, Dib-worm. I. Have. Won. Now what will you do: serve me or die?
3rd Panel-
Dib: ... (speechless)

This certainly would make for an awesome fanfic. I'm curious as to how such a thing would happen. xD
Awesome composition, and the choice of shots is really nice, they look like screenshots from an animation. Great shading work, the light sources are nicely defined. And I just love Dib's expression in the last panel, you could get so much from that. x3
Pretty kick-ass stuff. Nice job!
