Artist's Comments

I love the Advance Wars series. If you don't, you won't get this.

Just a little dig at the most blatantly direct recycling of character concept.

Characters are copyright Nintendo and Intelligent Systems.

Oh yes, complete ripoff. Even the character descriptions are the same! (and pretty similar for Koal and Adder too).

Although from reading on the interweb from people who spent a lot more time investigating than me, theres some slight differences in how the CO powers work.

Seems Kindle and Von Bolt were the only "new" Black Hole COs ...

Ah well ... still a great game.

I played advanced wars and I don;t get it?

The colours are pretty good.

Yeah, there's a slight difference in the dispersion percentages. But the basic vibe is directly the same (and at least you can tell Adder isn't dressed up as Koal - too short!)

A great game indeed!

Thanks, I'm really happy with how my colouring/shading is improving.

The gag: Jugger from Advance Wars DS pretty much is Flak from Advance Wars 2, right down to the power descriptions.

Hehe, glad to see I'm not the only one to notice that. AW:DS shows that they're running out of ideas for creative OC powers, which is results in recycles and rather plain, boring powers, like Grimm. But I actually like Jugger's design and personality better than Flak's, so I don't really mind. Very nice picture, by the way, but you might want to do something about the poses; they lean a lot.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. You're right about the angles too - it looks like Flak/Jugger is about to fall over altogether!

Thanks - useful critique is ALWAYS welcome.

so that explains why jugger and flak hav the same CO powers.
