That's Petrie from the Land Before Time movies.

That's the titular character of Ikachan, a short-but-fun platform game made by the same developer who would later go on to make Cave Story.

seems kinda familiar somehow...

It is Yoshi, probably just the artstyle and expression that makes him look that way x3 Not exactly sure where it's from, I just found the image years ago and liked it

Kind of looks like Yoshi, but it doesn't feel like him....

That’s Yellow Face, from Battle For Dream Island. He sells things you would never want, like a box that turns you into a bubble and an incredibly expensive gumball.

Who's this smiley?

Mini Ika Musume, from Ika Musume, a smaller "version" of Ika who shows up in a few episodes instead of the regular Ika, almost like a kind of AU

So cute! Who is this?

That's Spinx, a fake Pokemon I made as a pre-evolution for Absol. The one in the pic specifically is a variant found in the (non-canon) Symphora region.

Madeline Foster! Huge nerd that spends a lot of money collecting video game paraphenilia. Like, literally everything she can buy she will buy.

It's kind of unhealthy, please help her.

I've been always wondering who this nerd mouse is.

Muk, the evolution of Grimer. They're both piles of sludge.

Just a generic demon, or an Exceptional Demonic Entity?

That's Div from Penny Arcade. He's a hedonistic DVD player whose proprietary technology went obsolete a really long time ago, and spends his days binge drinking and labeling the main characters of the comic as being gay lovers in various ways.

He's a relic of a time gone by. I still kinda have a soft spot for him despite having soured on PA as a whole, though.

That's me, made in the bebinator character creator

Edited by Zanreo on Aug 16th 2018 at 1:12:53 PM

That's Azure Glory (aka Radiance), one of the Power Ponies. She investigates the strange occurrences happening in Maretropolis. I based her on the G1 pony Glory (the same one Rarity takes inspiration from, although I focused on her fascination with the unknown rather than her elegance).

The Hacker, the Big Bad of the long-running PBS Kids show Cyberchase.

Rei Ryghts from Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory. She's the leader and founder of the villain group "Seven Sages" working against the CPU goddesses (console personification main characters). She's very shy and insecure and apologises a lot, and has a hard time getting others to listen to her also turns out she used to be the CPU of the "Tari" nation (Atari, obviously), but went mad with power and ended up destroying her own nation, which was the reason she founded the group later, and also transferred her powers to her other dimension counterpart

Okina Matara, the final boss of Touhou 16. She can create doors on the back of anything, and the doors lead to Another Dimension (no, not the Kirby one). She’s also one of Gensokyo’s sages.

That's a headshot of a fake Pokemon I made up based on kudzu flowers and hanahaki disease. (I kid you not.) I have yet to come up with a codename for this Ultra Beast, and I'm still working on some of the details of its design (such as the petals on the underside of its neck), but this is pretty close to what it'll ultimately end up looking like. Also, that one's a shiny.

Edited by AgentKirin on Aug 18th 2018 at 1:17:55 AM

Huh, pretty unique and interesting concept and design for a Pokémon. I like it.

Nessie, aka. the Loch Ness Monster, as depicted in the Disney short The Ballad of Nessie. One of my all-time favorite depictions of Nessie, incidentally.

The bananas were actually a tribute to Satoru Iwata; I used them as my avvie not long after he passed away.

Edited by kablammin45 on Aug 18th 2018 at 10:54:40 AM

Also, why you got Banana's on your first page?

A Drawing for a potential race for U Realms Live; the Godfreys. [[Spoiler:They were supposed to be a race of one guy who split himself into multiple duplicates of himself, to the point there were hundreds of thousands of them. They would've searched the Realm, collecting information and returning it to the main Godfrey.]] Sadly, the race never made it out of concept, although it was used (albeit slightly differently) with a different Character in the actual Game/Show.

Very much real. That's a KV-2 heavy tank, identifiable from other KV variants by its barn-sized turret and the stubby gun barrel. It's meant to be a mobile bunker-buster, sporting a humongous 152 mm howitzer as its main gun. A single shot is enough to turn a light tank inside-out. The armor is thick enough to shrug off most early-war anti-tank weapons. One anecdote details a KV-2 holding off an entire German division for a full day until it ran out of ammo. Despite this, KV-2s are also infamous for being incredibly slow and unreliable. For one, the turret is so heavy that it can only turn on level ground. The gearbox would often jam, and the recoil from each shot risk damaging critical components like the engine or turret ring. It was so bad that in 1941, there were more KV-2s lost because of breakdown/lack of fuel than from enemy action.

This particular KV-2 is used by the Pravda High School tankery team in Girls und Panzer. Just like in history, the KV-2 is initially presented as an unstoppable juggernaut with terrifying firepower. It doesn't take long before the main characters use its weaknesses against it and knock the tank out.

Fictional or real?

Once upon a time it was the cover to my book series (at that point just planned to be one volume with three episodes) called Stuck. These days, it’s a bit of a relic, but it’s fun to keep around for reminiscing purposes.
