And here's the Crazy Kritter Freedom Fighters in full assault at Lord Hood's castle (and in full colour too!).


I like the orangey twilight-esq setting to this, I've also adjusted the lighting and got rid of some of the original sketch marks on certain characters (like Bow Sparrow) to make it look more 'clean'.

On top of that I applied a hint of blur to the rest of the cast and BG (other than Bow Sparrow) to give the main leader more focus. I didn't want to blur too much since it'll sacrifice the finer details I've applied with ink. The colour stage took an extra 4.5 hours - well worth it.




Inspired by :icontrunks24:'s most recent contribution to Archie Publications - a totally sick Sonic the Hedgehog #247 art cover!

Wowza! This is beautiful Elson! The lighting fits not only the lineart but the story. I can tell youve got a great knack of putting a sense of storytelling to your art. You deserve a job at archie comics. The way you draw and color gives off a strong presence of authenticity and its really inspiring. Keep it up.

Why thank you very much Arion.

Dude, you're only 13 years old and you already self published 8 comic books of your own?? That's mighty impressive stuff.

I believe that one day you're going to do some great things in the comics industry - do keep it up buddy. *thumbs up*

Holy crap, this looks amazing! Probably my favourite picture you've made so far. :O

What is Buck doing? It looks like he's about to piss on that barrel. XD

"What is Buck doing? It looks like he's about to piss on that barrel. XD"

LMAO! That made my day. :D

Well Buck is always in that pose - with the two hands clasped together and arms folded. He's the trapster so he's getting ready to drop another round of barrels down the stairway. 8-)

Oh, hahaha! I didn't notice the DEL dude down the stairs until now. Buck's Donkey Konging it up I see.
