DOCTOR DOOM by Neil Tavares

Sooo... i have been gone for a while, I think as have most of the other guys.  Life seems to be busy these days... hope you like!

STAR TREK by Neil Tavares

  So this week was my pick.  I have to say, that even though I watched TNG as a kid, I was never really into it.  The draw of Wookies and Astro droids was too strong.  After watching the New 2009 movie, this brought about a new curiosity with Star Trek.  Now I have been re-watching TNG as well as the original television show.  It's so much bloody fun, I tell you.

P.S Yes Riker's Beard is all kinds of Man, and you are lesser for not having one like his.

P.P.S No I'm not going to tell you which of the Captains I like more. Ha ha.

WRECK-IT RALPH by Neil Tavares

 I really need to see this movie!  Sorry for the late post all!! Have a great week!!!

PARKER by Neil Tavares

  So I know nothing about this guy, but I know I love Cooke's writing, so I think I will need to pick up a copy and see for myself!

SAILOR MOON - Neil Tavares

  She is the one named Sailor Moon!  Back from a little bit of a break (not really, I have been fairly busy) To post some Sailor Love.  I hope you all like it!

OBI-WAN KENOBI by Neil Tavares

  So I guess I am kicking off my pick of Obi-Wan!  I know he isn't the most interesting looking guy from the SW hexalogy, but he is for sure one of my faves, next only to R2.  I tell ya, if that little astromech was a jedi, there would have only been 2 movies, one of him training, and one of him messin' ol' Palpatine up!

  Yes, I consider it a hexalogy and not a trilogy.  Because when Lucas lost his mind, he lost the trilogy title.  I don't care how much you hate the first 3, they happened, they aren't going away, and he will continue to bleed them dry.

hope you like!

PRINCESS PEACH by Neil Tavares

  So in light of summer, I figured I'd draw the little princess in a sun dress.  Not much else to say, have a good day!

GARRUS VAKARIAN - Neil Tavares

Yep I changed it...

Garrus Vakarian. Pretty much the most bad ass dude in any game you have played. If your a Dude, he's your broseph, if your a Dudette, he's your bed buddy. This guy has never left my party, no matter what game he's in. Thane? Aria? Even Legion. No one compares to this tough as nails Turian. Anyone who plays this game, you know he's your favorite character. C'mon, really ask yourself..... yeah I thought so.

Garrus, your the man.

ADVENTURE TIME by Neil Tavares

So here is my pic for Jake and Finn. I have to say, this is one of the best shows on the air these days. We had a long chat about how bad most shows were the other day on our chat. (Ryan sounded like an old guy) Some of us agreed on some points, and others agreed on others. The general thought was that you get attached to whatever you watched as a kid. TMNT, Transformers, most of them don't hold up these days.

Adventure time is a really good show. I find it does have some really funny and fun moments. I really should watch more of them.

hope you like it!

PLANET OF THE APES by Neil Tavares

Here is my contribution to the Planet of the apes pick. I was always a fan of the movies. When I was a kid, I sat through a LONG run of the entire series at the time. Featuring Planet of the Apes, Beneath the Planet of the Apes, Escape from the Planet of the Apes, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes and last but not least Battle for the Planet of the Apes. The Beneath the planet of the apes was the one that was most memorable to me though. The whole missile as a god thing? So cool.

Anyways, I have to say I was BLOWN AWAY by the "Rise of" movie. I can't tell you how amazing I felt that it was. Anyways, I hope i just did some justice to the movie.

PROFESSOR LAYTON by Neil Tavares

No time to write, hope you like, ta ta!

EMMA FROST by Neil Tavares

Ok so I tried to go for something a little steamy. I hope I succeeded a little bit. I really dig this whole Emma/Scott thing. C'mon let's face it, Jean was no good for him. He's way too awesome. Besides, I'd take Scott over Logan any day of the week.

JOHN STEWART by Neil Tavares

Hey all! So with this week, I didn't really know what to pick, so when I asked my miss, she said "What about Korugar?" This was a really good idea. So here it is! I was stuck for a cool looking BG, so I went looking and found an awesome site with some sweet desktop images.

So that is where the awesome image is from. I didn't mean to take an easy way out on this, it was just so pretty. Anyways, I hope you enjoy!

I have been informed! (by informed I mean I just saw the comment) It's NOT Korugar, it's Xanshi!! Thanks Anonymous stranger!!

BETA RAY BILL by Neil Tavares

So I feel like this one is a bit rushed, but I really wanted to get him up here. I had no idea who Beta Ray was not long ago. Looks cool enough though. Wanted to have him kick the crap out of Loki.

Take Care

LINK by Neil Tavares

Hey all, I have to say, I've been a bit LoZ fan for my whole life. Playing the GB titles, and all the big ones like Ocarina of time and everything. One thing I havent seen Link do, is fight on the side of a large scale battle for the safety of Hyrule. He is always one lone guy, on and adventure to save the world. Why not have him at the battle front. Maybe as someone helping a general, fighting off waves of baddies! Think about it! Riding Epona, or some other horse into a huge wall of Moblins, Lizalfos and Stalfos. With Gorons, Hyrulians, and Zoras fighting side by side.

Meh, but it won't happen, anyways, enjoy the pic!

A GOTHAM CITY CHRISTMAS by Neil Tavares

Here is my pic for the day after Christmas! I picked Baby Doll! My wonderful miss had the idea after we watched the Nostalgia Critic!... Her episode on Batman the Animated Series was so heart breaking and awesome! You all need to watch it!

Have fun for new years guys!

MARTIAN MANHUNTER - Neil Tavares

This week's pick is Martian Manhunter, a dedication to my lovely woman, Sarah

This is the first character that my miss fell for in comics. Darwyn Cooke's version of Martian Manhunter is the character that she connected with the most, and the character she continued to love. With good reason. He's strong, and kind, but also sensitive. He has so much more depth than some of the others in his group and yet you still never see anything of him in the comics.

I had to dedicate this to my wonderful better half, due to the fact that she has helped me through so much of discovering who I am, with my art, and as a person. I am a stronger artist, and person because of her. She is my inspiration.

Sarah you are the best thing ever!

Hope you all like it as well guys and gals.

SKY DOLL - Neil Tavares

I always wanted to read Skydoll in animation school, but never got an english copy. Alessandro and Barbara are just gorgeous artists, that I drooled all over my friends books... it was awkward.

STORM by Neil Tavares

Thought I would do some big cool Storm pick eh? Well bullox to you! Here comes a little more fun follow up to my Apocalypse pic!! (link over on the side)

Storms pretty neat, never really been a huge fan though. Meh, Pikachu has got dis yo!
