Hello Flashback Friends. It’s Friday, isn’t it wonderful? I’ve been ready for Friday since Tuesday and finally it’s here. The first step towards having a good Friday is to do a flashback and here’s mine!

It’s already Star Wars time again. That was quick. I have quite a few repeat themes coming up as we enter the final stretch of flashbacks. As always, a click will enlarge the picture.

Deema as Yoda came about since Yoda is green and so is Deema. Not very deep reasoning huh? In case it’s not entirely clear from the picture, she’s wearing fake ears with plastic wraps that rest on her antennae.

Here’s the comparison to the original mash-up. Deema’s head has rounded out a wee bit wider over time.

That’s all for this week. Next week’s flashback will be here in a flash…or a week. Probably a week.

Hello everybody! It seems we survived Tuesday to get to Wednesday. Yay us! Let’s celebrate with a mash-up.

This is the penultimate Guardians of the Galaxy installment. As always, you should click on the picture if you wish to see it enlarged.

Last week I mentioned that I almost cast Zoë as Yondu but put her as Nebula instead. That left Deema as the most logical choice to play Yondu. She has a nice round head that works well for the character.

That’s all for this week. Next week, Nektara closes things out for the Guardians theme. Who will she be? Come back next Wednesday to find out!

Hey there folks! I know I said on Wednesday that the Power Rangers theme was finished (actually it’s still Wednesday as I’m writing this) but I have one last piece to share.

When I drew the individual Power Ranger mash-ups, I was going off one specific promo picture which you can view here. Why wouldn’t I offer the same group shot when they were all done? There’s no good reason why I wouldn’t do so, so here I am doing so. Enjoy (or don’t)!

PowerRangers

Looking back, if I’d wanted a little more symmetry, I’d have put Red Rich and Todrick as the Black and Blue Rangers, Barnaby as the Green Ranger and Cyran as the Red Ranger. I drew Red Rich first though and at that moment I didn’t think I was going to draw the others. A lack of ideas for a follow-up theme at the time led me to do the rest and I filled in with other available cast members. I couldn’t use Big Oonch as the Black Ranger (to counterbalance Cyran as the Blue) because there was no practical thematic way to hide his eyes short of making him wear the Power Rangers mask, and it would have been weird for him to be the only one to do so.

Anyway! NOW we’re done the Power Rangers theme! Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
