Kang the Conquerer

| Peter Ahola

This project was started before the news broke at SDCC about the future of the MCU. It was originally just supposed to be a project showing my love for the Marvel villain Kang, whose my second favorite villain after Dr. Doom. But now I suppose it’s a tribute to what has been lost.

Although I’m happy that Dr. Doom is finally entering the MCU (though not too happy about the actor playing him), I’m pretty upset that the whole Kang story is just getting dropped. I was looking forward to a possible adaptation of the Kang Dynasty storyline, and now the great Kang the Conquerer is now trapped to only be in an Ant-Man movie. It’s so sad because the character has so much more potential. As a time traveler, he’s equipped with virtually all weapons across time. Weapons from the future, tatics from the past and knowledge of historic events. Truly Kang is a very creative and overall fascinating character see.

As a multiverse hopper, the MCU could’ve produced essentially the same results. But sadly we’ll never know now, and Kang will probably go down as that “big bad” that just got dropped. Very sad, but at least we still have the comics, where us Kang fans can only dream of him being properly portrayed on the big screen.

I’m so behind on my uploading. This image is quite a few weeks old. So here’s Miku Nakano from the anime the Quintenssential Quintuplets. She’s my favorite of the sisters, plus she’s voiced by Felicia Angelle who also voices Kohaku from Dr. Stone (pretty sure you know how much I like her).

This was drawn on the some extra time. I was rewatching the Quintessential Quintuplets for like the tenth time while working on Kalwa pages and just felt like drawing her in a fanservice like pose.

I am Sakuyamon

Yet another Digimon piece, this one based off of season three, also known as Digimon Tamers, aka the best season yet. The whole Biomerge concept is pretty cool for Digimon, the idea of Digidestined fusing with their Digimon and both enter the battlefield. It was also similar to Spirit Evolution in which a kid is fused with a spirit to become a Digimon. It was a cool idea, but was used in my opinion in a lame season, that being Frontier.

Anyway, here’s Sakuyamon, the fusion of Rika and her Digimon Renamon. Of course I was gonna do Rika, she’s my favorite character from Tamers and one of my favorite characters in the whole Digimon Franchise.

Diaboromon

Very recently, I’ve fallen into a Digimon group on Facebook which has kinda reignited a spark in me. Digimon was a major part of my childhood and it’s remained kinda that one special fandom I’ve grasped onto through childhood into adulthood, much like how people grasp onto Power Rangers or their favorite movies.

So here’s a recent artwork I did of Diaboromon, my favorite villain of the franchise. Debuting in the movie Digimon: Our War Game, Diaboromon is a truly fascinating creature. He lives within the confines of the internet and travels all around hacking into systems and causing mass chaos. His ultimate move came when he hacked into a nuclear facility and launching nuclear warheads at Japan.

I specifically remember when the Digimon Movie came out in the USA, they gave out free cards with tickets. My card was Diaboromon and I was initially upset cause I wanted his more heavily promoted previous form Infermon. Years later, I’m so happy I got Diaboromon, and yes I still have the card.

Cryptkeep (Tales from The Crypt Fanart)

Everyone, the Halloween spirit is starting to BOIL in me right now. I know it’s still July and we got like three more months to go, but already I’m longing for Halloween time. You all know each year I do the big Halloween draw off where it’s a full month of art featuring monsters or other horror icons from pop culture, as well as some Halloween stuff for my own creations. For me personally it’s also a time for horror movies and books, and last year was so much fun. But oh, the waiting.

Anyway, the feeling boiled to the top and here’s a drawing of the Crypt Keeper from Tales from the Crypt. He’s not currently on the list for this year’s draw off, but trust me, we’ll have some great stuff. Just hang on a little longer, October is only three months away.

Triple Digimon

The heat here in AZ is really wearing me down. Mixed with the physical labor of my day job I’ve been coming home exhausted and really just feel like crashing on the bed and playing the switch. So it’s a little hard to sit down at the computer and work.

Well here’s a few more belated art works, all centered around Digimon. Yes, Digimon was my bread and butter as a child, and it’s kinda that special thing from childhood that I continue to invest in as an adult, similar to Power Rangers or Pokemon to others.

So we got my two favorite Digidestined, Tai Kamiya and Rika Nonaka putting the throttle on Digivolution. We also got one of my favorite villains Puppetmon, which is actually a remake of piece I did MANY years ago. This is kinda meant more to represent Puppetmon as he was in the original Japanese version of Adventure 1. While the American dub kinda portrayed Puppetmon as a somewhat goofy, yet still lonely, villain, the Japanese version was far darker. The original portrayal of Puppetmon was more like a sadistic psychopath with the mentality of a child. He loved playing rather dangerous games with his prey, such as a game of war with real guns, and relished in drawing out their suffering. He was also prong to temper tantrums and was more than willing to kill his own minions if they upset him, making him a somewhat more scary threat to be around.

MermAy 2024

| Peter Ahola

Long time no upload. This may was kinda getting hyped for Fan-Fusion and working on other illustrations that I haven’t had a chance to upload. So it’s time for some major super pack uploads. So here’s the art for Mer-May 2024. Didn’t really have much planned this past month so I pulled out two quick ideas involving She-Ra and Ariel. Also there’s a crossover involving Amber and the Gill-Man (Creature from the Black Lagoon). This originally meant to be Amber’s piece for last years Halloween Draw Off, but it was passed on one because of time constraints and it kinda clashed with the all the other drawings cause it was more silly than scary. Also the joke doesn’t have much relevance to the actual Creature of the Black Lagoon film and I felt it was just kinda a desperate grab for the Halloween season and I kinda felt I’d get bored with it and just rush through to get to the others. Still it was kinda a cute idea, so I decided to save it for Mer-May.
