DOWNLOAD FOR A LARGER VERSION

Okay, seeing as how the original picture was ass (sorry for the cursing, ladies), I decided to redraw it and add color digitally. I kept most stuff intact, but I fixed several issues in character's outfits, hair, and the like. (I can't believe I went so far as to forget Big Boss' beard in the original. His BEARD) I also changed Meryl's pose, but I don't think the result looks any less awkward.


The background is the original picture, after I stretched it, blurred it, applied a "stroke" effect and a blue tint, then put a blue gradient in the middle for no reason. The logo is taken from Wikipedia since I don't have the "Helvetica Ultra Compressed" typeface. For shame!

I drew each character entirely separately too, so I might upload them to scraps for those of you who might be interested in giving it a better look.



By the way, I hate drawing that ninja.

Don't you think it's too big for a mug?

The individual characters though, each in mugs of their own, would kick ass.

Well, the thing about looking weird can be explained as either a style choice or a flaw. I've taken realistic-looking characters and slapped them together in a cartoon setting; that might be tricky sometimes.


As for how it's done, I actually have redraw the picture over the original in Photoshop. But this doesn't have to be done, I'm just more comfortable with the options the tablet offers.
