Here's some old Cambrian fan art! <3 (Is it fan art or paleoart when you're doodling prehistoric critters just because you love them? I guess it's both.)

I liked how the Alalcomenaeus turned out so much that I made it into a painting, although I was working from some poorly preserved fossils so there's a lot wrong with the anatomy (missing great appendages and median eyes, telson is the wrong shape entirely, etc.). This is an extremely speculative reconstruction that definitely crosses the line into fanciful, but I just really liked the idea of a megacheiran with an iridescent carapace and brine shrimp-like feathery gills. You never know, it could have happened.

This was all from just one brief play session.

This kid is comedy gold.

 Move over, Calamity Ganon. This kid's got the destruction of Hyrule covered.

 To be fair, the game has the same effect on adults.

She doesn't really read the game text super closely. 

Consequently, everyone and everything in Hyrule has been renamed. 

 More old art. Someone on Neopets asked me to draw a robot Ixi, and I wasn't very good at saying "no" back then. Turned out pretty nice, though.

Thought I'd change it up a bit from the string of Zelda comics with more old art. Back in the day, someone created a "PokéFusion" web page that combined two different random sprites of Gen I Pokémon, and it became a thing in the Pokémon art community to draw these amusing hybrid creatures. I tried my hand at a few myself. 

After I posted my feelings about Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and as I've been playing Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom with their impeccable game design, I got to thinking about what exactly goes into a great Pokémon game, and what I'd like to see in future installments of the main series.

 

She also kept calling Vah Rudania "Vah RuDaniel Tiger", but I couldn't figure out a way to make that work in-universe.

 

It's because there aren't any horses in the Divine Beasts, I'm sure.

Still trying to convince her that this isn't Dreamlight Valley and expanding Link's wardrobe isn't one of the primary objectives of the game.

Sometimes I think she just enjoys making us find new characters for her to hate on.

She also thinks Kass is creepy and weird?!?!

 Gotta love a kid bouncing around in front of the TV while you're in the middle of a boss battle.

 

Kid logic: If you didn't like a plot point, it didn't happen.

If only.

By the way, everything in these comics are either direct quotes or paraphrases from things she has actually said while we play.

She gives me so much material.
