Skeletorby ~Sllohcin

Cartoons & Comics / Digital Media / Cartoons / Drawings

With the official unveiling of the MOTUC Skeletor, here's #2 of 4 of my cardback pitch.

To cover as much ground as I could with these illustrations, I was thinking that Mattel "may" opt for 2-packs. This is the reason you'll notice that all heroic characters face right and all the evil characters face left... it was a "just in case..." kind of thing.

Like Beast Man, I made a few final colour changes (as well as a few very small detail additions - ie. the shin guard buckles were added after seeing Mer-Man at SDCC.)

The only thing I didn't reference from the cardback art on him was his face - I just had this inkling to Alcala*-ize his face!

*Alfredo Alcala was the original artist of the old vintage mini-comics that came with the figures.

Liking your card backs mate. Then again I like your stylised approach to things.

Out of curiosity, how would you have your Snake Mountain?

Filmation, classic toy or 200X?

~Sllohcin Aug 8, 2008 Professional General Artist

Snake Mountain for the Classics line (much like my concepted Style Guide* version of Snake Mountain) would be much preferred to look like a mesh of vintage and 200X 'toon version.

It would more or less look like the vintage toy except the "gate" part would instead rise to be the FILMATION/200X snake wrapped mountain.

The best of both Worlds...

*My Style Guide can be found at ToyNexus.org.

Gonna have to go to Toynexus post haste. I've joined, but haven't had time to get round to interacting, been hectic here.

Loving the idea though, hope there is a chance for a larger playset later int he future.
