Mega Bros.

I finally got this one out of the way.

I started sketching this the second Nintendo's E3 presentation was over, and thought I would have it done on the day. Then I got the brilliant idea of doing the thing with a realistic shading, which, given the reflective surfaces and fur, became a pretty formidable undertaking. Got it done though.

E3 wasn't that spectactular for me this year, but I always want to give credit to the aspects I find fun, regardless of it's context. So seeing Smash Brother's retake on Megaman was really fun, and I laughed way too hard at Mario's cat suit to not include it. Initially, Megaman and Mario were supposed to be pointing at the viewer donning the buster and a fireball. But the Metal blade scene was too tempting not to replicate, and the claws of the cat suit mirrored the blade pretty well, so there it is.

I'll be doing another painting very soon, so hopefully I'll have that up sooner than I did with this guy.

Enjoy!
