Wow, MatiZ... that's phenomenal!

Easily one of the best pieces of DKC3 art I've ever seen.

:dixiehappy: :kiddycool:

Any plans to create more such masterpieces — for Retro's DKC games, Donkey Kong Land, etc?

The thumbs up from Cranky is very appropriate, MatiZ. Nice work indeed.

Thanks. Earlier this year, I created a similar pictures of DKC and DKC2 but I forgot about this one. I was able to finally focus attention from rare: https://twitter.com/RareLtd/status/5434 ... 52?lang=en
Yes, probably the next one will be Donkey Kong Land or Donkey Kong 64.

Ooh, I saw that DKC3 piece on DA just yet! I faved it, it's beautiful. And cool that Rare tweeted it! They tweeted a Viva Piñata pic by me once as well, hehe.

I haven't drawn any DK-related things in a while, but after I decided to replay DK64 I wanted to try my hand at drawing Chunky. Then it became the DK Crew... then it became all Kongs in the history of ever. Here's a little sneek-peek on whom I've drawn so far;

I rather like Lanky there. :P

Wow, Riddedebie! Your drawing is great as well! You should color it (or not) and also tweet to #FanArtFriday and @Rare Ltd. I'll give you a chance because I don't have anything prepared to show. I have a 1/8 sketch of Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze's first world and in future other levels.

It IS very good, but Chunky's legs should be MUCH small relative to the rest of him.

Thanks, guys! I'm not sure if I'll tweet it to Rare, though, I'd rather wait til I draw a better picture.

I know, I shortened them not soon after I saved this particular rendition. :P

I can see the downgrade and my limits of drawing because I can't make it better. The colors are strange. Well, will be better next time! Time to learn some styles of drawing.

MatiZ, that's GORGEOUS!

:ck1:

I think all of the changes you made between the old and new versions were good — apart from perhaps the clouds, which I think I like more in the original piece.

Bravo, yet again; your artworks continue to impress me. :D

I love it! I really liked the concept of the Lost Mangroves. I just wish it had a more mysterious atmosphere in the game.

Wow, MatiZ... another triumph!

The colours here are a little muted — kind of like your previous "old version" — but the artwork in general is simply beautiful. You've done a wonderful job capturing the spirit of the world and characters once again.

Thanks. That's true. I started to color the image, starting with the donkey's skin. Skin came out yellow-white and there was a chain reaction with other elements of the image.
Next one probably will be "Canopy Chaos" with Cranky.

So do I! I'm thrilled that the gorgeous (and hilarious thanks to Winky) animal buddy one is available on T-shirts and such — I couldn't not tweet about it! ;)

I'm certainly going to get at least one of these once I work out what size(s), style(s) and colour(s) to go for... :scratch:

Amazing art, as always!

I dunno if this is the right place but art is art right eh? I created "a loyal to the original" Hot Head Bop -theme with real instruments because DCK music is awesome. Check it out if you like the song. One of my favourites. :)

I can be proud of it. Eariler I made "Twister Trunk", but I really didn't liked it. Now I drew conclusions from previous mistakes (mostly bad sizes contours) and corrected in this picture. There's no much black like it should be, but I like it :)

Zip Line Shrine level. Usually, I don't draw night scenery, because I didn't have opportunity. Surely I will draw the fight with Pompy boss and then think about more levels.

Chibisai Kong, Twin Cats and I created an Undertale AU where everyone in the original Undertale is switched out with Kongs(and some Kremlings).

I'm also doing streams for my art. Qyz has been by one and i would like for you guys to come enjoy the experience as well. It would be nice to hear from all of you again. I'll post the link down below. Please keep an eye out for streams. I usually do them in the evening/late night hours EST.

https://picarto.tv/LittleDixieDoodle

EDIT: The stream has ended. I present to you, the Fallen Monkey, Diddy.

Image

Yeah, we decided on DIddy to be our Frisk.

Also to anyone who hasn't played Undertale, i recommend it. Its a really good game.

I'll post an update when I'm totally finished. I'm not done working on him, yet.

It's very atypical for me to make fan art, but I decided to go ahead with this because I'm trying to learn more about polymer clay. I thought it was a good starting point (though I've had it for years, I never did much with it).

Pretty good, Phyre. Keep up the great work!!! :)

I'm a little surprised that you posted.

Atlas has seemed a little dead lately, except for occasional chat messages (and my update posts for DELTA).

Qyzbud hasn't even logged in since last year, so... :facepalm:

I think you have improved! I can’t say if you’ve changed or not though because I don’t know enough of your previous artwork. Of course, it’s news to me that DK jr. did that at some point in his life, but you learn something new every day! :parry:

Thank you both!!

WesternTanager794, you *might* be able to find some of my old stuff in previous replies to this thread, tho the image links might be broken. The prompt also came from an idea my friend gave me, that we know of he never really had an actual biker phase (tho he did have a biker friend named Bones in Saturday Supercade).

Super Luigi, the coloring is my favorite part. It's so relaxing. OwO
