Description My robotic gun bunny character Cactus, in super deformed stylings. Feels strange that she's only packing an oversized pistol this time but maybe she's traveling light.

I was playing around with trying to keep the hands and feet fairly large and the limbs long enough to move around properly.

I was feeling inspired by the use of black shading in the artwork for Etrian Odyssey and Senko no Ronde recently although she doesn't bear much similarity to either in retrospect. Still, I like the end result! The photo texturing was really an afterthought.

I'm happy with it in general although I really can't draw bullet feeds.

Media Used : Ink on paper, Photoshop, Photos I was taking of concrete while other people were enjoying the beach and assuming I was crazy

Ahh like I care, they're just strangers, while I end up with a camera full of usable textures! Score!

Maww cute! Haha, someone's playing with textures too - and it's been done quite well.

Heh! Since you came back, I was thinking of this particular character. I like her. I think the shading works. But yeah, I know of that game and the art style.

Hehe! That big gatling gun probably had to run out of ammo sometime.

Thanks! And Cactus tends to play pretty fast and loose with her weapon range
