..and the Wachopski Bros?
Shouldn't that be the Wachopski Siblings? [I seem to remember hearing 1 of them had decided to have a certain operation.]
You could put Pepe in drag for Pork Radio, or do him as a little piglet in Look Who's Porking. |

Fear not Graysho, I may just keep the new 'imporked?' pepe for the poster shots and leave the old one in the books. Actually, I have little choice considering how many characters I have produced for that one book range-not to mention 13 full books that would need re-illustrating...doesn't bear thinking about.
You know, it's like you so got used to Donald Sutherland, and one day he decides to undergo pastic surgery. It would feel just wrong :D But the latest addition looks good enough, could be the Kiefer Sutherland in that parallel universe ;) |

Now I look at the 007 image on my laptop, pepe looks a bit freaky; I think it is the lighting. He looks like he should be playing a Banjo on a porch...now how can I get deliverance in here.
Aw...shucks Billy Bob...:D |

Does PePe do television appearances? Perhaps a spot on "Squeel of Fortune"? |

Been away for a few days so a little late to the party but just to chuck in my tuppence worth... I prefer the 'older' style Pepe. Has a more cartoony look which fits the style better in my opinion. |

I see opinion is still with the new version but, as I said, I will keep the old one for the books and try a few more movie spoofs with the new one-see how it works out.
Now, I need to get in touch with greeting card/novelty/poster companies and see if anyone wants a big theme. Hammy Birthday anyone? |

Not sure this would work with the old version. Anyway, here is todays WIP; this is a composite and some stuff is out of line. Also need to tweak lighting and put more detail in robot side-any other suggestions? Oh, I already decided not to do the Arnold Snortenegger line... |

Haminator and Superham ... :D
Really good stuff, and the subdivision version is starting to grow on me..
but can you still get the range of espressions you had with
the cartoony version? |

Glad you think so-these two posters would not have looked as good without the SDS version...as for expressions-each mesh would have to be edited before SDS was applied for every individual image. Still, makes for a hobby doesn't it...;) |

Considering doing this one as a portrait format (tall rather than wide)-what do you think?
Whoops...no shadow from the sunglasses. |

Yes, if you were aiming for a movie poster format.
Pork, the other white meat! (Remember the ad?)

Right then...do I suspend fantasy (I think we are way beyond that:D ) and keep the pig as a replacement for the Shark, or poke even more fun and give him flippers and a snorkel set? |

Don't know about you guys as recipients of the fruits of my deranged mind, but I am really enjoying doing these again. And for those who fear their TS skills may not improve, just compare the original Haminator 2 poster from 4-5 years ago. I have no shame...but a lot still to learn; |
