buckmana's little art corner (Graphics intensive)

I went digging through my art folder to find some stuff that may be interesting to Disney fans.

Notes: These will be crossover specific fanart, since those pictures suit the theme of the game.
My Franchise specific art won't be posted here.
For some reason, the full image is being cut off in some cases.
Links for the images are provided instead.

Each Experiment in Lilo&Stitch has a specific power.
Cannonball's is the ability to create waves.
If you wish to understand the context which motivated this image, watch the Little Mermaid Lilo&Stitch trailer and you'll understand why Ariel is mad at Cannonball.

Cheese Party
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/Stars2Sea/CheeseParty.png
The Kim Possible/Lilo&Stitch crossover episode referred to an unseen Experiment which had a strong resemblance to Rufus.
So, I thought, what if Rufus actually met the Experiment?
Rufus is the one on the left, I named the Experiment (on the right) Squashy because he has the ability to compress matter.

The motivation for this one is rather simple, it's just Kim giving Ariel a hug at the beach.

Jenny is fond of hugging her friends, especially when she meets them for the first time.

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/Stars2Sea/KimRose01bg_rs.png
This was inspired by a scene in Jake Long: American Dragon, where we see Rose exercising to maintain her condition.
Since Rose and Kim are physically strong and agile girls, I thought it would be interesting to have them do a gym exercise that would require strength and balance.

The unofficial rule of being a heroine: you must have a cute animal sidekick.
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/Stars2Sea/UnofficialRule.png
It occurred to me that small animal sidekicks are common.

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/Stars2Sea/VioletSleepover01b.png
Kim invited Violet to stay at her home, this is their sleepover.
I thought it would be interesting to have the girls cuddle their favorite soft toy animal.
Kim's is a Pandaroo (it's a kind of large beany baby).
As for Violet, I was listening to the director's commentary of Bounding and the Director says his favorite animal is a Meadowlark.
And since he was also a significant character in the Incredibles (he played Rick Dicker), I thought it would be appropriate for Violet to have this bird as her toy.

The Latest Models
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/Stars2Sea/TheLatestModels_resized_zps3958a0a7.jpg
I made this shortly after Cars was released.
The idea was that Kim and Violet are being "showroom girls", introducing the newest Cars to be released.

Disney Redheads Unite!
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/dru01wE.jpg
This is the result of a random idea I had one day: what if W.I.T.C.H. was a team of Disney redheads?
Ironically, I had problems finding the last two, Disney Redheads aren't as common as I would have thought!
Will Vandom is the normal Leader of W.I.T.C.H.
Ariel (naturally!) is the Water Guardian.
Kim is the Earth Guardian, since she shares an implacable determination with Cornelia.
Riley is the Fire Guardian, since she's hot-tempered.
And finally, Candy is the Air Guardian because she's an airhead. ;)
When I first posted this image on another forum, I asked what acryonym could be used to describe this new team (W.I.T.C.H. is an acryonym of the first initials of all 5 Guardians).
They told me C.R.A.W.K. would be a suitable name.

Girl's Night In
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w224/ajbckmn/Stars2Sea/GNI.jpg
I had an idea to do a massive crossover picture, one where all the girls from my favorite cartoons were having a slumber party (yes, another one!).
Although, obviously, they haven't gotten to the sleeping part yet.

See if you can identify who is in the picture.
My post has named some of them, but there's still a lot of others to name.


Well, that's it for now.
I hope you enjoyed my little fanart contribution.
I'll add some more as/when ideas come to me.

^I'd say it's just a coincidence: The pictures are still awesome nonetheless!

I use Photoimpact.

I'm not fond of programs like Photoshop, they're too fiddly with too many options.

I just want to draw the image, not obsess with all the minor details about saving or the shape of the brush.

Which is why I use Photoimpact, it has advanced options, but they don't get in the way of just simple drawing if that's all you want to do.


I'm not really sure I want to try and address Hey37Bulldog's concern.
My reaction was jawdropwideeyedstare.

I've depicted the girls as the way they appear in the cartoons, no changes were made.
Although, in some cases, I had to guess what they would wear.

For instance, Ariel and Jenny.
We never see Ariel in 20th century clothing, so I had to make something up.
Although it mentions Jenny can change her outfit, she rarely does.
