Found this girl when I was looking for random characters to draw. She looks really cool!

[yoshiunity]

So another Six Character Challenge completed!

This time it was Nintendo themed, and thanks to my friends on Twitter, before the site further lost its mind -- I was able to draw six characters popular, somewhat known, and as obscure as can be.

Micaiah - Fire Emblem

Didn't get far into Radiant Dawn because I had a bugged copy and had to return it for something else. Though I always liked her design!

Anyway, the spell was originally supposed to take up the majority of the picture, with two rings of light engulfing the bottom screen. I removed it because it was too distracting. You can barely make out Nevessa as it is.

Bill Grey - StarFox

Fun Fact: Bill is my favorite Starfox character. I just like how he's the commander of two Cornerian squadrons, but goes into Bro Mode whenever Fox shows up.

Despite being in multiple games, Bill barely had any good references. So this design is a composite of all of them. Even added some grey in the tips of his ears.

Also, I actually did draw his legs, but his cockpit just seemed too empty for something so compact. So I added the console.

Ibis - Pilotwings

"Alright!" I would have never thought of anyone suggesting Pilotwings art in 2025. Sucks that Nintendo only used the PW64 cast for one game. They gave that entry a lot of charm by design alone!

I could count all official art references for Ibis on one hand. So I made up for it by studying whatever fan art there was, and captured photos while playing Pliotwings 64 on NSO.

I've also updated her design slightly since PW64 characters have some of the most N64 designs to ever N64. (That's not a bad thing, but an update is due.)

Meta-Ridley - Metroid

Ridley, or Meta-Ridley as portrayed here, perched on a collection of his..."work". To us, this is murder. But to the Cunning God of Death, there's much more work to be done.

While "Ridley" was one of the suggestions, the version preferred was never specified. So I went by my favorite. Anyway, Ridley is a sadistic bastard. So much, that if you look closely at his cheek, you can see a minute smile curling along it.

Also that's Tallon IV in the background.

Kumatora - Mother/Earthbound

She's currently taking a break after feeding that Pigmask Colonel a PK Fire-Roasted, Five-Knuckle, All You Can Eat, Buffet! And the other Pigmasks want none of it. Haha! As if they have a choice...

I haven't finished Mother 3. But I'm willing to believe that Kumatora uses PK attacks like everyone else. But for context in this art piece, I really love this old fan idea for a Smash moveset, where she'd uses it to power up her fists and punch enemies with it.

Also, angel gloves.

Captain Falcon - F-Zero

I finish my final lap with an art piece of the man, the myth, the legend, the guy that people FINALLY give a shit about outside of Smash Bros... Captain Falcon!

Launching into action in his home town of Port Town, with the Blue Falcon and the Falcon Flyer!

Drew this for @breberrysweetcake after I received my first ever Daily Deviation on dA. Took three requests to celebrate, and Bre snagged one. Thought I'd upload it here on Tungle dot com. Her name is Aiko.

Go visit Bre and send them some nice messages!

Meant to post this a little sooner, but we're under a month, people! That's right! Time was extended until March 29th!

There's still plenty of time to pre-order a copy of Fighting Style. But like time off from a crappy job, time waits for no one!

So act ASAP! And spreading the word is always a big help!

Here’s another example of a character I’ve wanted to draw for quite some time, and was willing to make an exception despite my strict commission only rule. This is Verte Sinople made by Vertekins. A green tenrec who’s really in-tuned with nature. Literally to the point where she can use it to heal others with her distaff. In my opinion, this is an example of a fan character with a good amount of thought put into it. She her own character and has nothing from the main cast of Sonic shoe-horned into her backstory and she’s not a Mary Sue in anyway. Also, I really like it that it’s a healer, not a fighter. While I’m not against characters who are great fighters, I use to have a Yoshi OC that was one, but fan characters don’t have to be fighters to be interesting. They just have to be well thought out. Despite being a big fan of the Sonic series, it’s very rare when I work on Sonic characters, Sonic fan characters or characters with Sonic-like proportions. So I had to do some research to get the proportions as close as I could to read as a Sonic OC. And I wanted to take Verte’s original design and give it more of a spin that’s more in-tune with her love of nature. I was glad to finally work of this character and I’m glad to see it work out.

Verte belongs to http://greenyvertekins.tumblr.com/ Picture was drawn by me.

I had to. XD

Man, I love Platinum Games! The Wonderful 101 is an action-packed, genre switching gem that was massively overlooked. The remaster crushed it’s Kickstarter, so I wanted to make a fan art piece of the main squad. 

 "Team! Unite up!“

ONE WEEK LEFT!! Following up on the previous Tumblr entry because pre-order numbers are a bit low. And I want many people to see the talent of forty-seven artists, myself included, who came together to work on an amazing fighting game fashion zine called, Fighting Style!

Fighting Style is a fan zine about taking favorite fighting game characters, having them wear fashion of all kinds and just hanging out with each other as they showcase their fit. The artist designs the artwork. The writer writes the descriptions and articles. Not only is it filled with content from artists of all sorts of art styles and mediums, but a chunky amount of franchises are represented from the popular to the obscure. Including Street Fighter, DarkStalkers, Injustice, Guilty Gear, Granblue, Blazblue and so much more. Shoot, I even made an entry for Power Stone.

Here's the link to the Bluesky and Twitter posts for more info:

And here's a link to the shop:

The pre-orders started on Jan. 15 and will end Feb. 15. So there's only a week left to go. If you're interested after reading the rules and checking prices, feel free to buy whatever tier you want and support this zine. And the more purchases are made, the more Stretch Goals are unlocked for all physical tiers for more swag.

If you can't afford anything, that's fine! Your personal needs are more important, and we all understand that. But please share the posts and artist previews on Bluesky, Twitter, or whatever. Just doing that goes a long way!

Another commission for Rodenris!

He wanted me to sketch his happy spray-painting OC, Evanis, posing in a futuristic city landscape as an homage to Limp Bizkit's "Significant Other" album cover.

Dynamic. Lively. A lot of fun! Thanks, buddy!

[yoshiunity]

Website and Ko-Fi Updated!

New Art Added:

Commission: Evanis (Limp Bizkit Homage).

Feel free to check it out whenever you want! I'll update on here in a day or two.

A quick piece of Daisy in her karate gi from Mario and Sonic and the Tokyo Olympics.

It was originally made for a Twitter collab, but sadly I didn't make it in time. Still, I like how it came out.

[yoshiunity]

Two commissions in one for my friend, Blazing.

Both parts were requested at different points. He wanted me to draw his character, Amber, performing her special attack, Crimson Fang. Inspired by panels from the manga, Bleach.

Another commission for my buddy, Mr. Blazing!

This time he wanted me to sketch his character powering up in a berserker-like state known as Pale-Blood. Using a panel from Naruto as a reference, I wanted to show her just going feral and embracing the hell she's about to unleash!

Always happy to do business with you, buddy!

Trying something new. Honestly, something I should have done a long time ago. For now on, I'm posting art on my website and Ko-Fi page AT LEAST two days ahead of other social media. I'll post an update like this for anyone interested.

So if you want to see my work early, just click the links and you can check it out. If you're willing to wait at least two days, that's fine too. It's free either way. However you want to view my work is up to you, as long as you're not an asshole.

Most of the artwork in this update is already on here, but that's a one-time slip-up. Honestly, I'm only doing this to bring more attention to my website and Ko-Fi. I mean, it's simple business. I've worked hard on my website. Also, WIX is getting ready to raise the price.

Also, It's a good way to show that I'm available for business and open to tips($) without beating anyone over the head. So get ready to see updates like this A LOT.

[yoshiunity]

Another entry I made for a, maybe canceled(?), Rival School Zine. I love me some boxers, and Pacific High is all about that with varying styles.
