Mmmmm…Friday! I love Fridays! That’s a day for flashbacks! Speaking of…

Blasting through the sky, comes a fearful cry, KITTY!

It’s Kitty (Cobra) time again! And this week it’s the boss’s turn to shine. It’s Sass as Kitty Commander! Remember to click on any image to enlarge it.

KittyCommanderAs always for a Joe-related mash-up, I’ve got the action figure card design for you as well.

And here’s the comparison to the original mash-up. I remember really being happy with the original mash-up. I covered all the details of Cobra Commander’s uniform and liked the shining effect on the faceplate achieved with solid colours. The new one is an improvement on all points of course.

That’s all for this week. Next week, Cyran is back and he’s going to be motionless. What does that mean? Come back next Friday to find out!

It’s Wednesday. The first work day of the week for me. What’s even better is that Thursday will be the last work day of the week. Two-day work week! Aww yeah! Let’s get this day rolling with a mash-up. But first:

Ranma 1/2 is an anime that is aimed at an older audience. The mash-ups featured here are 100% safe for children of all ages, but parental discretion is advised before viewing the anime or reading the manga with children.

“When he’s a boy, she just wants him. When he’s a girl, she wants him dead.”

That sums up the early relationship between Ranma and Shampoo, a Chinese Amazon who follows female Ranma (she doesn’t know about male Ranma) back to Japan in order to kill her to restore Shampoo’s reputation after being defeated by Ranma in a fight, as decreed by her tribe’s traditions. When MALE Ranma accidentally defeats Shampoo in combat, she falls in love with him, again as per the traditions of her tribe. It’s okay to be defeated by an outsider, so long as he’s male. When she finds out the truth that male and female Ranma are one and the same, she runs off in tears. When she returns, she has her very own Jusenkyo curse. She turns into a cat when splashed with cold water. How fortunate that Ranma is terrified of cats, right?

Casting Sass as Shampoo was a no-brainer for me. Shampoo turns into a cat! After finishing the theme however, I wonder if it might have been better to have Sass dress up as Ukyou instead. I’ll talk more on why when I get to Ukyou. For now, back to Shampoo. I knew I wanted to feature the outfit Shampoo wears the first time we meet her. Little did I know how difficult it would be to find a GOOD picture of it. It’s not her most popular look so none of the promo art for the show has her in it. I had to rely on screen captures from the episodes. I went with my own pose as a result. With that said, here Sass is with both her normal and anime-inspired faces.

That’s all for this week. Next week, we meet another member of the Chinese Amazon tribe.

Here’s the group picture of the Animus cast dressed up as the Teen Titans. People who showed up at Zone 51 on Free Comic Book Day were able to walk away with a free postcard of this picture.

The observant amongst you will have noticed that Nektara is looking in the opposite direction here than she was in her picture by herself. The original way made it look like she was looking totally elsewhere than the rest of the crew. Those of you who aren’t observant will have noticed because I just told you.

Teen-Titans

For comparative purposes, here’s the picture of the real Teen Titans that I based this shot on. For those wondering, Nektara’s hood is down because I wanted her face to be visible. I don’t think the picture would have turned out well if I had drawn the hood up anyway.
