GOIN' APESHIT!

Here's some more stuff from the BILLY & MANDY episode that featured the "Anime" Billy & Mandy. The little Chim-Chim-esque monkey winds up coming into the "real" world, and eventually goes mano-a-mano with Grim to see who gets to be the kids' new best pal. Oh yeah, they fight John Woo style with household cleaning products. (Don't ask)







...and just in case you're curious to see how those anime-style Billy & Mandy turned out, here ya go:



PEACE OUT, G.

Yay for angry, evil monkeys! Very nice!

Chris Battle said...

Roque- Yeah, that one's my fave, too. (That's why it's 1st!)

Zac- Sure did, man-- thanks for the peek at the SW alphabet goodness. I had already been planning out a whole series.... hmmm: Maybe there's room for more than one book! (I'm sure we're not the 1st ones to think of it!) Nice paper cut-out, btw...

Brianne- We still need to hook up with Lambey for boozey Post-It battles!

Aaaha! I see white out on some of them. So you are mortal!!

Good to know for us little guys that aspire to reach the "Battle-o-sphere" one day ;)

I'm up for post its and suds. I think Brianne's a little wary that I may burst out on her on the street again. Sorry Ms.Potato Farmer.

The monkeys are great.

The Billy an Mandy ones look like anime. So you succeeded in that regard as well.

That monkey is super bad-ass! I'd like to see him and Buddah Monkey of HTF hash it out!

Dapper Dan said...

Excellent posing and lines on the monkey. Top notch work

Ian said...

You are truly skilled artist Monsieur Battle. My American friend Ian Wasseluk storyboarded that episode. do you know him? Exceptional work!!
Greetings from France!

Freshyfresh said...

Why do people make everything in Anime? Cartoons are much better!
I like your monkeys, he looks cute!

To your "Fake Shane" drawing: I don't think that it looks exact like the Shane-style. Some little parts in the drawing are a little bit like Shane, but you put your own style in the drawing and that's good. It don't look like a copy, it looks fantastic! :D

My drawings are cheap copies of different styles, you can be happy that you have your own style!

Alexei Martins said...

Hello...do you like Astro Boy...?

Chris Battle said...

Steve- Someday I'm gonna post my really rough drawings and you'll see how messy it gets...

Jez- "I'm Down" needs to be on a t-shirt... small image on ash gray or black... I'd be down w/buying one!

Mitchell- Colangelo sez you need to get a haircut!

Dan- Your stuff rocks! I'm gonna drop by yer blog more often...

Ian- Thanks, man. Yep, I know Mr. Wasseluk-- I made sure I gave those models a little extra love just 'cause it was Ian's board.

Stephanie- Personally, I love all animation styles... cartoony, anime, CGI, claymation... The more variety, the better, I say! (and I have never seen anybody that could just decide to draw like Lynne Naylor and more or less pull it off like you can...just post more often!)

Lawrence Christmas said...

yup. you have talent out the ass!

Unknown said...

Ha Ha! I'm # 3o!

Chris Battle said...
