One of my favorite characters from one of my favorite animes. Directly inspired by one of her finishing scenes.

The Gradius V iteration, aka the greatest shmup ever made.

I think Palutena may be the most detailed character in Smash Bros (until Bayonetta came out). She took forever, but I think it was worth it! Now if only I could understand how to play her properly...

I tried thinking up a good caption, but I couldn't get Persona music out of my head. ...you'll never see him commmmminnnnnn

waka waka

an older work of mine, drawn back when Cave Story wasn't available on literally everything. :)

Cilvia and her most powerful summon (though mrbot would say otherwise).

I couldn't decide on a background so I used both! In case you're wondering, this character is from the game Shadowverse. She's not all that useful compared to other "swordcraft" followers, but one time someone immediately conceded after I threw her down so that was pretty cool. (but I mostly just love the design)

I had this scene in my head for a while. It's part of the story but I won't go into details as I still hold out hope that RUDRA will be finished one day. : )

They did an awesome job with Ryu in Smash Bros. As a Street Fighter fan, he was immediately easy to understand and...really really good.

Creative liberties lets me put female Robin up front. Male Robin comes off as a tough guy for some reason.

I've always been more of a Marth player, but Roy manages to look more badass doing all of the same moves somehow.

Kid Icarus Uprising was a cool game, but I had to stop playing because of the controls. :(

Despite Xenoblade being one of my all time favorite rpg's, I wasn't thrilled to see yet another sword user in Smash. Turns out however, he's incredibly unique if you use his monado powers properly. Also I'm a huge hypocrite because I love sword users.

or as the cool kids like to call him, "Pik-Man."

Ohhkaaay!

Continuing my line of characters I will never "draw" in Fire Emblem Heroes :D *update: got her at the end of the event*

I actually prefer Dark Pit to the original.

Marth was one of my main characters since melee (and before I knew what a tier list was!) but I never really thought much of him. Lucina, however was awesome in Fire Emblem: Awakening and I was all about getting to play her in Smash Bros. Since she's pretty much Marth without the tipper, it was easy to get used to her.

Overwatch. Drew this back during the beta before I knew much about the game :D

It's that guy from that one RPG that everyone remembers! While VII isn't even close to the best Final Fantasy, it's probably the most important. I was shocked to see Cloud make it into Smash. Then I was even more shocked to see just how awesome of a job they did with him.

Lucas from Mother 3

Fio from Metal Slug. Mostly inspired by Metal Slug 3, right down to the beach level and fantastic announcer.

Lucina in her “Brave Hero” look, aka her great lord armor. (finally got her in FE: Heroes recently :D)

Just how many friends does this guy have?!

I don’t use Mr. Game & Watch, but I always make sure his bucket is full.

I've been playing a lot of big open world games lately. From Zelda to Nier and now Horizon, I've just got adventure on the brain! Zelda's world was very much an inspiration for the background in this piece. Foregoing visual density for cleanly defined areas is right up my alley. I haven't drawn Ravy's partisan weapon in like...5 years I think: https://www.deviantart.com/art/Ravy-MK-I-Suit-345317432. It has a pump action mode changer that switches between 4 styles. The dagger and sword are detachable. That's about all I wanted to say. Hope you like it!

One of the oldest pieces still in my portfolio. Many past commissions have asked me to draw in this particular style so I have to respect it!

Ooooh boy. In the time it took me to finish drawing Cereza, I could have drawn at LEAST two and a half ganondorfs. So many details...A fitting final boss for my Smash Bros project.

Corrin's design is really cool, and unique for a Fire Emblem character. I noticed some slight changes were made for the smash design so I actually stuck with their original look in those cases.

The internet knows that trolling is cool. The dog was doing it before it was cool.

Mac was the first character I wanted to try when I finally got my hands on the new game. Unfortunately I really like playing in the air and this guy hates to leave the ground. I still pick him up every now and then because boy does he hit hard.

I can't figure out what to say about Marth... He's great! He's partially responsible for the popularity of Fire Emblem and competitive Smash Bros. Oh I guess he was my also main until Lucina :/
