Actually the zootopia pics are just for comparison of the color schemes, but yeah sure I won't deny I'm a bit tired of the overused gender role swap jokes.
Also if anything the traditional gender roles would be the original strip ones, considering there used to be no females in the police.

Can we really say the joke is overused here if Grape cross-dressed only once on-panel?
The Romeo and Juliet swap was never shown.

Maybe he was saying that gender swap gags are overused in culture in general?

Kevin and Sasha are another example.

i had taken it as a rejection of the 'all dogs want to be police dogs' stereotype implied by peanuts choice of costume.

I'd taken it as Grape being a fan of rabbits and Peanut being a fan of foxes =P

would be funny if Peanut started suddenly developing tracking dog instincts.

I took King's old ref and edited it for Doug. (Original King ref attached for comparison).

Pretty impressive, man.

Now you have no excuse to mistake me and King! Mwahahaha!

Wait, why did you edit your post with a second of your character's ref sheets?

which one are you again?

Doug's a blue-collar sort. Sorta like the different color caps on Huey, Louie, and Dewey duck.

Retail, maintenance, custodial... Yup, I’ve definitely led a blue collar existence so far.

I'm sure the custodial jobs must have been really entertaining. I can only imagine.

Figured since they fit the topic, to post the edits I made for that Halloween special I made. It's pretty obvious that I used Jack for the bases. Had to resize and reline literally everything to fit the game engines limitations.

Also, I just love how that smile works on Macabre.

And also the literal sudden realization that I messed up on his helmet. I've been wondering why they felt off the entire time I was making the game.

The first 4 pictures give me Cubone vibes. LOL

But without messed up origins!

If somebody in the Pokemon world were to become a Cubone therapist, they would make a killing!

yeah, the lopsided shoulders always give away when you're using that base for him.

Would've been awesome if I found a satisfactory image of Jack facing the other way so that there'd be the arm when flipped. Like with my current avatar, kinda going with "as long as I erase the scar maybe it's not as noticeable."

Well it looks like it is noticeable now because it is being pointed out.

Mirage sees free food, she's taking free food.

So, changing Zach to Mirage was kind of a challenge. Getting a good Macabre out of Jack was an absolute nightmare. Had to find a suitable arm, flip it, then graft it, THEN reline the entire thing. That's why Macabre looks "cleaner" than Mirage. With Mirage, I used the select color gamut function to extract as much of the black lines as possible. While it has a better chance of looking more like the original comic lines, it also tend to look so much rougher. I may go back to doing these in Paint.NET without anti-aliasing.

Still, it's done. Took the better part of two days. I will probably avoid works that involve Macabre from now on with these edits, it's exhausting.

I'm not one to turn down free beefcake demigods either. XD

Nice job on that though.

Thanks. Macabre isn't supposed to be that buff, but I just didn't bother to omit the lines that Jack has.

Hey. Do you hear me complaining? XD

technically this is photoshoping a translation error so that panel 3 makes more sense, but whatever...



those who don't frequent Bad Translations may be more confused than normal.

Heh, nice! It's like that one manga where a cursed pond transforms the people who take a dip under specific circumstances. Good edit, Buster.

Are you talking about Ramna 1/2? I haven't read it but it does come to mind.

Yup. Never read it, either, just aware that the protagonist gets turned into a girl and I think his dad turns into a panda?

What a lovely duwang.

missed it … but i'm kinda oblivious anyways...

the first three panels and the dialogue from the last panel are puled directly from a bad translation, but the last panel has been partially redrawn. notice anything different?

...besides my forgetting to draw rex back in behind kevin's shoulder when i was removing the red glow. that's entirely my error.

It would be so hilarious if they tried to pair a female Kevin up with Fox. XD

NO CONTEXT!

Context unnecessary! Nice job, chortle, chortle...

Seem legit.

Good job!

Yeah I don't see anything strange with that.

I'll finish one of these "storylines" eventually.

Decided to do these edits back in Paint.NET. still have some muscle memory of Clip Studio Paint, though.

It's called a treeeeeee!

Garbage has nothing to do with being green! D:

whatever you say mint minou
