Part 1 of 4
The “Six Fanarts” Challenge has been running since February 2020, and I noticed many artists taking up on it. Making six portraits of existing characters seems too simple, I initially overlooked it, but I later hatched an idea that I should make fanarts of such characters based on the Standard Alphabet. In order to comply with the divisible-by-six format, I dropped the seldom-used letters “Q” and “X,” leaving me 24 characters to choose from.
I also have a request-based “Six Fanarts” project in the works, but it will arrive after I’m complete with the 4-page Alphabet series.
And of course, all the characters in both series are anthro-furry characters, because I’m too chicken to draw normies, monsters, and talking household goods.
Here is the first round of my pick:
A: Arthricia (Rick and Morty). This plot-relevant character from the episode “Look Who’s Purging Now” still holds a big place in my heart, and she is effectively one of my all-time favorites. “A” is a very popular letter for character names, but I settled on this dystopian-farmer-society catgirl within a heartbeat.
B: Brynn (Neopets). Even though I never had an account, feeling worrisome about being committed to such “responsibilities,” I consider myself a casual enthusiast for the role-playing community Neopets. I actually did not actively explore its wonders until 2014, LONG after its heyday in the 2000-2009 decade (the Aughts, as some call it). One of the plot comics I read is “The Faeries Ruin,” and it featured such vivid and fine-looking characters as Brynn, Hanso, and Xandra. So here I introduce you to Captain Brynneth, a kougra of the Brightvale Guard.
C: Carmelita Montoya Fox (Sly Cooper). I’ve been a fan of this Interpol Inspector from the very beginning, ever since I bought the original “Thievius Raccoonus” game released back in 2002. The strangest thing, though, is that I never made a publicly-submitted fan art of this red fox vixen. This paradox ends now!
D: Dust (Dust: An Elysian Tail). This immensely beautiful game was the very first one that I bought and played on my PS4 (with Stories: Path of Destinies as the close 2nd) (!). The supernaturally-created warmblood is feeling a bit awkward for not bringing his nimbat companion Fidget along. Don’t worry, Dust. There can only be ONE character per cell. I’m sure Fidget would understand…
E: Elora (Spyro Re-Ignited). The 2018 reissue of the Spyro the Dragon franchise looks so fine, but that statement is from some guy who NEVER played the original games that debuted from 1998 onward. I’m sure some purists might disagree with the updated version. Anyway, the improved game features a very adorable faun named Elora. I modified her dress slightly.
F: Fox McCloud (Star Fox). Here is one of Nintendo’s great icons. This red vulpine is the leader of Team Star Fox, a freelance Arwing spacecraft unit equipped to defend the vulnerable Lylat system. There are numerous Star Fox games, and Mr. McCloud also appears in every edition of the Super Smash Bros. arena-combat game titles.
