Jin Super Combo!

By | Capcom, Fan Art, muscles, video games, wet, xxx | No Comments

So, you guys remember those kick-ass animations of my drawings done by BlodiaX? Well, as a trade, he asked me to draw Jin Saotome from Capcom’s Cyberbots and Marvel vs. Capcom 1 and 2.

I love Jin because of his crazy dynamite clothes moves where he gets half naked. So in my fan-art of the guy, I wanted to depict him in different states of undress. So that begat the first 4 jpegs.

But then BlodiaX was like, “if I do more animations will you make more versions– like with a bigger bulge and bigger dick?” Naturally, I agreed seeing as how it was the least I could do for all the time he put into animating my pieces. Admittedly, I DID kinda draw Jin’s ween a little on the smaller side, a far as MY drawings go.

And then, along with the bigger bulge version and monster cock version, I took it upon myself to just go all out and give him a ginormic cumshot as well! This brought the number of jpegs up to 8! Haha!

The storyteller in me had to connect each of these drawings somehow. So that’s where the super bar comes from- haha. And then I just swf’ed em all together for yas! Hope you guys like, and thanks again to BlodiaX!

Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Review

By | Capcom, Marvel, video games | No Comments

As many of you know, X-Men vs. Street Fighter is my favorite video game ever. It combined my two favorite series and used an art style that has more heavily influenced my work than anything else. And although Marvel vs. Capcom 3 is a true sequel, it hasn’t quite improved enough on the original for me to get that excited.

Presentation Art

The intro movies are particularly well done. It takes a lot for CG animation to impress me, and this sequence, which is divided into 4 mini-movies doesn’t disappoint. Everyone moves seamlessly and the action is exciting. The rendering method is beautiful, which according to my partner (who does that shit) is a combination of a toon shader and hand-drawn elements. This is what I like to hear. It truly does look like something out of a Marvel comic book.

In terms of the in-game art style, I am really taken with all the text motion graphics. From the font choice to the cool page-turning effect for some of the transitions, it really does add a breath of new life to this game series. The stage backgrounds are also well-done, but this is something I expect of all non-2D games, given that’s where I think CG really shines– in scenery and environments.

Character Art

I was initially put off by the rendering on the in-game characters, specifically on the Marvel side. The shaders Capcom is using doesn’t look right on the superhero characters (yunno, the ones in spandex.) There needs to be a highlight and there isn’t. Its just a strong shadow and a midtone. This look is fine on the characters who are mostly skin or have loose cloth as their costume, but on guys like Cap America, Spidey, Mags and Deadpool it makes them look like… rubber, according to my other friend who works in CG.

Some of the girls look like drag queens and move really clunky. She-Hulk animates kinda doofy to me and Jean’s walk cycle is stiff unfeminine. Morrigan and Felicia have had their asses robbed from them. Felicia in particular really disappoints me because if you study her classic 2D sprite, her standing animation had this beautiful erotic hip sway, indicative of her Vegas showgirl storyline. I know it’s subtle and kind of a nit-picky complaint, but it’s things like that that made me such a devoted Capcom fan.

I’m very pleased with Storm, though. Her animation (I think because they used her 2D sprite as reference) is very graceful and her look is beautiful. Sentinel too (I think because he actually has strong highlights) looks amazing.

Gameplay

My major gripe deals with the revision of the fighting system. The “Verses” series is derived from Street Fighter, whose fundamental element of gameplay deals with a specific number of buttons assigned to punches and the same number assigned to kicks. It makes anyone who’s ever played a Capcom fighter easily pick up any fighting game in the library. This game however (in an effort to make it more accessible to newcomers) has removed the punch and kick system in favor of 4 general attack buttons. In other words, the button that is supposed to be light kick for everyone will instead be Ryu’s strong punch, Felicia’s light punch, and Cap America’s strong kick. Furthermore, one of the attack buttons is assigned to something called “Special Attack” which is that character’s pop-up (regardless of whether it was a punch or kick in the past.) But get this– “Special Attack” cannot be used to execute more than 90% of the Special Moves! What the hell? It makes up you have to re-learn characters you already know. The learning curve is low because the new system is favorable to the button mashing style of play. But I thought top buttons for normal and special move punches and bottom buttons for normal and special move kicks was easy, smart and made sense (and has been working for 20+ years.)

Sound

I LOVE that many of the characters have retained their themes from older games though. Storm has her kick-ass BGM from X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Morrigan has her amazing theme from Vampire Hunter, even Arthur’s Ghouls and Ghosts music is there! All are suped-up and remixed and sound great! Definitely getting this soundtrack!

Spider-Man has this obnoxious American frat-boy way about his voice that gets under my skin and makes me wish for the old voice actor. In fact, all the Marvel characters sound a lot more annoying than they used to. Thankfully, you can opt to switch the voices of the Capcom characters to Japanese because “Ya like that!?” really doesn’t sound right coming from Morrigan. It’s funny but playing this game makes me finally realize how Japanese the previous games felt. I’m not sure how I feel about the American-ization of Capcom fighters, as it’s something that’s fairly new, only really seen in this game and Street Fighter 4. I mean, yea it’s the norm, yea I need to get used to it and yea saying that I like when a game “feels more Japanese” is slightly otaku of me. I recognize that.

A Weird Homophobic Tone

I wasn’t going to make this a whole section of this review, but enough instances of it have influenced my opinion on the game enough to make it a major issue.

Deadpool has a move where he does this effeminate “sexy walk” with hearts surrounding him and if he’s attacked, he picks up the super bar and hits the opponent with it. I like the idea of Deadpool using the super bar as a weapon since his character is self-aware, but the gay walk really puts me off. I don’t understand it. I don’t know what the sexy walk has to do with the super bar. It’s two unrelated jokes combined into one and just feels like an attempt at disparaging effeminate men.

There is also this crass sodomy joke in the intro involving Deadpool that feels out of place and doesn’t really sit well with me. Maybe I’m out of touch, but I don’t find anal rape all that hilarious. And we all know I am by no means a prude, and consider myself quite the proponent of sexual freedom. But this scene seems to be making a joke out of a gay sex act, thusly making fun of gays in general. Quite frankly, the joke reeks of being written by some pathetic closet case who really does fantasize about being penetrated by magical tendrils.

Cast

I’m not going to harp on the character selection because I know they’re never going to please everyone no matter who they pick. I mean, personally I like X-Men and Street Fighters (given the strength of their designs, it’s no wonder the series began with and has been dominated by them up until now.) But that isn’t enough of a valid argument, given the vastness of the character pool and the fickle/ subjective nature of these character’s fans. I will say though that the current roster of 36 isn’t enough, considering the last one had 56.

I am keeping my hopes up for downloadable characters. From the old games, I’d love for Captain Commando, Mega Man, Psylocke, Rogue, Cyclops, Iceman, Juggernaut, Blackheart and Venom to make a return. In terms of new characters to the series, Marvel shouldn’t ignore the potential of what Dr. Octopus, Hawkeye, Cage or Nightcrawler can bring to the game. And I know everyone has had this idea, but a Mr.Fantastic who plays like Captain Commando, calling upon the rest of the Fantastic 4 for assistance would be AWESOME! On the Capcom side, it’s about time we saw someone from Breath of Fire or Power Stone or for Pete’s sake Rival Schools! (Except for Batsu and Akira.) I mean, imagine how fun the kids from the sports school would be!

Summary

Despite the awkward control, I am still playing it. I mean, what it comes down to is Capcom deemed in necessary to proclaim that this is the “less serious” game by simplifying the control, while Street Fighter 4 remains closer to the classic “complicated” style as possible. From a marketing standpoint, it might make sense to emphasize the difference. (Whenever I dont like something new, I think about it from the money-making angle and always find my answer.) The cast really needs to get much bigger in order for me to keep playing, though. Somehow, though, given that they’re only releasing 2 characters at time, I don’t see us getting a full 20 more, which is a real bummer. Game sequels should never be… smaller than their predecessors.

M.O.D.O.K. and Thor are awesome additions as are Arthur and Haggar. In fact, those four were totally on my list of who I wanted back in 2! And I do like that Capcom is giving a real solid go at reviving their fighting game tradition. I just want them to realize that not much was wrong with the older games, and that they don’t need to stray too far from them to come up with what I think can be better than this. 3 outta 5 stars, and if a big-thighed, bouncy-boobed Psylocke (with her Bruce Lee shake) makes it into the roster at some point, I may be willing to add a star.

Oh, and I just came across this pic while trying to find a screenshot of the character select screen of the new game and… I just had to post. Is it wrong that I kinda wanna do him? >___<

Shizumaru: I just don’t know… I’ve never had one that big before…

Haohmaru: I promise I’ll go slow. Ease it in, give you time. Before you know it, you’ll be in so much pleasure, you’ll never want it to end.

Lick My Pit

More from that sexy Big Guy / Little Guy figure drawing session. Had to turn them into this pair because A) I am so lately loving using the big man in MarioKart Wii, wantonly barreling into mother fuckers with complete abandon as they scream and fly off the screen.
And B) because I love any excuse to reiterate my favorite piece of text ever:

From the original Mario 2 instruction book. God, I just love it. So random and strangely written.

Oh, and “Lick My Pit” is fabulously cummy and uncensored on

I’ve worked pretty hard on this but the real credit goes to fellow artist / web developer, Necro. We met at an art show a little while back, and immediately hit it off, both of us sharing a passion for art, gaming and CAPCOM! (LOL)

Boot Camp is available in the Members Gallery section of Anti-Heroes.net. I’m dying to know what you guys think of it, so after you play a few rounds, be sure to let me know by posting here!

(And feel free to spread the word by posting this commercial anywhere you want!)

The Hotness

By | Fan Art, Marvel, twinks, video games, X-Men, xxx | 4 Comments





Maggot’s one of those characters who I thought had tremendous potential but since wrought with strange, ill-conceived writing and art, he ended up just as a odd blip in X-Men history.

The 90’s gave us many strange, almost grotesque new mutant characters. It was a backlash from the Barbie and Ken mutants of old. Skin, Chamber, Penance, Husk, Marrow and Maggot all either had gross powers or an unusual appearance. I responded well to this change. It made sense to me that some “morlock” type characters could be introduced and not be considered villians.

So with Maggot, I definetely loved his crazy power; the fact that he commanded these two insatiable slug-like entities. But when they started talking about his digestive system and all that stupidness, it became too much. I didn’t need to know all that.

His design was also all over the place. Is he big or is he little? Is he blue or is he brown? Why is he totally ripping off Guido’s look? Well, above is my vision of how Maggot should have looked all the time. And don’t forget to ROLL OVER him to see his long African uncut dark ‘n’ lovely penis.





Next up, the hot-headed Brazilian but Roman but British volcanic beauty, Amara AKA MAGMA! I honestly used to be somewhat indifferent to her until I played the revamped version of her in X-Men Legends. She was one of the more fun characters to play in that game. Admittedly, in my drawing, the powered-up version (ROLL OVER) is way more than I drew for any of the past X-Men I’ve drawn. But I really wanted to capture the experience of how awesome she was in that game. So yeah, I am quite proud of the piece.

Kemonomimi Fun!

And not that I can’t draw Sonic from memory (because I went through a phase in my adolescence where he was kinda ALL I drew) but when I quickly Google Imaged “Sonic,” this pic to the right was one of the FIRST images to come up. The drawing is phenomenal in its own right, but the audio bonus track very much makes this the best thing on the Internet… ever.

Current WIPs

I’m at one of those awkward moments in my work where everything I’m presently working on is close to being finished but not quite there yet. They’re also all really big projects, so it gets kind of daunting to jump right in and pick them up; which is what I should be doing today. Instead I think I might play Fatal Fury or watch Inspector Gadget on Roku. We’ll see…

In the meantime, here is a sneak peek at all the giant projects I’m working on:

Persuasions: Phase 2 (continuation of your favorite gay toon porn web soap)
Ryu Gets Porked (interactive illustration)

Fap Fantasy (new site section + companion zine of illustration and prose)

Anti-Heroes: Boot Camp (online video game)
This is kind of a big deal for me… revealing my payloads before they’re completed. I usually like surprising you guys. So yeah, appreciate this– LOL! Which project are you dudes most looking forward to?

FIgure Drawing: Slutty Toads

By | anthro, chubs, classic cartoons, cutesy, Fan Art, figure drawing, hairy, muscles, rant, Toad (Nintendo), video games, xxx | 4 Comments
“Oh, geez, another Toad post? Why does this guy like frikkin’ mushroom people so much? It’s frikkin’ weird!” LOL, I know, I’m sorry. But I am really excited for the new Mario game coming out this weekend. Not only will I finally get to be Toad again, but it’s a multiplayer sidescroller! …People, a MULTIPLAYER SIDESCROLLER! (cue spaz out)

So this week in figure drawing, I was kind of distracted (yes, I’m so de-sensitized to porn that two hot guys can be sucking each other’s cocks right in front of me and I can get distracted.) So I drew the models as Toads! Anthony was all worried that I would get kicked out for not taking the class seriously. Haha. What he doesn’t know is that I take Toad very seriously!

The models were very hot. Blue Toad in each of the poses is Doug Repetti, a hunky gay man about town who’s solid muscular body and ample genitals were a pleasure to draw. The other Toads are Adam, a model I’ve drawn so many times before that I decided to give him a different body type in every pose to keep it interesting to me. But the result makes Mr. Blue Toad look like the slut of he century! hehe!

Above is an experiment using this crazy paper Anthony had. It’s black wax or something, and then you scratch it away to reveal a multicolored pattern underneath. It was difficult to scratch if you don’t have the right tool. Also, there’s no erasing. But it made for a cute, fun drawing.

My Twitter followers know that a few weeks ago, I was home alone a lot and since I have no cable at the moment, I decided to watch all of my Super Mario animated series DVDs. I LOVED that cartoon as a kid and all my memories of why I liked Toad the most came flooding back. He as so awse. Here’s a screenshot from the episode that spoofed Mad Max where he became the TOAD WARRIOR. Get it? SO CUTE!

Toad was such a huge part of the toon but whenever that little bitch Yoshi came along, they unapologetically omitted Toad. That began my hatred for that bastard dinosaur. But now finally, come Sunday, I will get to control Toad, riding Yoshi like the subservient little punk he is, punching him in the face to get him to eat goombas.

Also, I’m over my issues with Toad being a race rather than one specific character these days. If he’s a race, then my drawings of hunky Toads that fuck each other are more justified.
