#Fossil Fighters... 4!!

[kabutoden]

concepts for characters for a fossil fighters 4. shes intially disguised as a human, but this dinosaurian wants to turn her boyfriend into a dinosaur too with a giant laserbeam so they can still date. she gives up on the idea after shes told she can still date her cutiepie bee eff without him being a dinosaur!!! shes an alien therizinosaurus btw :)

a lot of the local preteens have cute crushes on her because she's not just super cute, but really cool and knows so much about t-rexes and other carnivorous dinosaurs :) her boyfriend is trying to get them to leave him and her alone XD

Very SPECIAL Vivosaur: Round 4

No new propaganda has been submitted!

[princess-of-anons]

So cartoon logic aside are dogs, like, a sapient species in the Fossil Fighters universe? Or was Rex from the BB Brigade just Like That™ when they found him?

Princess Pooch from Champions is a normal ass dog and it’s at least implied that the rest of her royal family is also just normal ass dogs but seemingly all the dogs we’ve seen in this series have intelligence and problem-solving skills close or equal to that of humans

Head in my hands with the 3-4 creative projects I want to start. Once i'm done with this stupid ass sedimentology paper it's over for everyone including myself esp bc all of these are different fucking ideas with different characters and themes and medias. AUGH!!!!! THE NEED TO BE CREATIVE BUT UNABLE TO START IN FEAR OF NEVER LIVING UP TO THE IDEA IN MY HEAD!!!!

[local-hyena]

It's the summer holidays and finals are over ! Which means I get plenty of time to do stuff and learn new things :3

There are two things I would like to start learning during these holidays :

Animating with Flash (for cartoon-making purposes)

Animating with Source FilmMaker (for meme-making purposes)

I would also like to get my hands on Garry's Mod because it looks fun and I could also do some machinimas with it. (Who wants to do a machinima with me ? :D )

There is also a part of me that wants to make videos about video games on YouTube. Maybe my old dream of making a gaming channel is not out of reach after all. I already have a couple of video ideas. I'd like to make a video about all Valve games. Not an in-depth analysis of each, but presenting them in chronological order. I'd also like to talk about the Little Tail Bronx series. If we're talking about videos of me playing games, it'll probably be "retro/old" games. Maybe Banjo-Kazooie, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, NiGHTS, Klonoa etc... I kinda wanted to re-play Fossil Fighters Frontier and Monster Hunter Stories, so maybe I could make a let's play ?

Anyway, if I do any of that, it won't be regular videos.

Announcing: the We Have Pokémon at Home battle tournament!

We are proud to present the follow-up to the Pokémon Battle Tournament: the We Have Pokémon at Home Battle Tournament! In this tournament, monsters from the monster taming/battling/collecting genre that are explicitly Not Pokémon will duke it out in a one-on-one battle tournament. This tournament will take on the same format as the Pokémon Battle Tournament, asking “who would win in a battle?”. For this tournament, we are taking submissions for which monsters to include. Monsters from non-pokémon franchises, pokémon parodies, fakémon and beta pokémon are eligible. Your own fakémon creations and unique outside the box suggestions are especially encouraged.

Submissions are closed, thanks everyone for submitting!

Answers to any questions you may have under the cut.

Q&A: Which monsters can I submit as contestants? Monsters eligible to be included in the tournament are:

Monsters from another monster taming franchise. A non-exhaustive list is included below, monsters from other franchises are eligible as well.

In-universe Pokémon parodies (think, for instance, of the Voidcritters from the Sims 4) are allowed and encouraged, provided individual species are documented somewhere online.

Fakémon are allowed and encouraged. Especially your own creations are encouraged as a special treat. Mons from published fangames are allowed. Fakémon variants of existing Pokémon are allowed. Fusion designs are allowed.

In the light of the recent leaks, beta versions of Pokémon are allowed. For leaked pokémon, any link to a post discussing the leak is sufficient as documentation.

Anything else you can think of that fits the criterion of “we have Pokémon at home”. Outside the box suggestions are encouraged.

Monsters ineligible to be included in the tournament are:

Official Pokémon or any of the canon variants thereof.

Monsters that lack an image or online documentation of an individual species.

Monsters not submitted as individual species.

What do I need to submit a monster? To submit a monster, you need an image link and a link to information about the monster, preferably a wiki page or an introduction post by its creator.

How many monsters can I submit? As many as you like. Go nuts.

Which monsters will be included? As many as are needed to round up or down to the nearest power of 2. Preference will be given to a variety of origins, so if a specific franchise or fakémon creator dominates the submissions not all of them will be included.

When are the submissions due? Submissions will run for two weeks, until December 20th. Depending on the rate of submissions, I reserve the right to cut off submissions early if the number of submissions runs in the thousands.

When will I know if my submission made it? When the polls for round 1 go up! A huge part of the fun of the first round is, to me, the element of surprise, so you will find out at the same time as everyone else who is in the tournament.

The pre-approved non-exhaustive list of franchises from which monsters can be submitted is as follows. New franchises may be added to the list as submissions come in:

Digimon

Monster Rancher

Shin Megami Tensei

Spectrobes

Bakugan

Bugsnax

Welcome to the end of Round 2 everyone! Round 2 started about a month ago, lasting for 4 weeks, and was of course a bracket of all the winners from Round 1! In this post I've collected some data to analyze everyone's performance, just like I did with Round 1!

Happy Anniversary to Fossil Fighters Champions and Happy Birthday to Joe Wildwest! ⛏🦖💀

[aer-arts]

Advertisement post cause why not

commissions are finally open after like a year

(order form is currently broken, give me a sec)

(ok, edit, i can’t get it to work right now, if you want the order form just comment or dm me and I’ll send you the link)

There’s the order form, fill it out if you’re interested

After my current queue of varying degrees of complexity (like 4 things, don’t worry, they probably won’t take that long) I’ll start accepting commissions as I find time and motivation

also, cause I forgot, Fossil fighters Ocs and Ocs I’ve previously designed get a discount of either $10 a design or are more likely to get extra art from the pwyw (if you have a ff guy I designed the discount is $15)

Very SPECIAL Vivosaur: Round 4

No new propaganda has been submitted!

[spectraltenkai]

Song: Blue-Sky Quena (Rainbow Quarry)

Day 4, surprise, Fossil Fighters Champions art! Got Tophis, the neutral element Vivosaur that's a HUGE snake! I literally jumped when I first saw this thing, then, got super lucky with a giant dark fossil! It was fate! And I gave my snake the silver head fossil, which changed the colors to all silver!

Tophis is an absolute powerhouse too even when Solo Power doesn't activate- I never thought I'd go nuts over a neutral type, but here we are
