Saurasomon

| Peter Ahola

It’s time now to revive one of the oldest ideas in my lifetime. This is Saurasomon, an original Digimon I created back when I was eight, though with a radically different look.

So as a kid, I always use have imaginative scenarios of being a Digidestined and joining Tai, Izzy and the others on their adventures. Even use to draw myself (badly) into the coloring books I owned with my own Digimon partner.

Originally this character was called Dinomon, but that name has since become the name for Tyranomon’s mega form. I was next going to call him Raptormon, but felt that would be too cliched given my affiliation with raptors (Green Raptor Studios).

Finally the name Saurasomon was chosen to better affiliate him with his planned evolutions. The word “saur” is Latin for lizard and has since become a staple for word Dinosaur. The name “Saurasomon” was created after finding another fan-fiction Digimon called “Saurmon.”

I’m currently finalizing the designs on his Champion, Ultimate and Mega evolution forms. I think I got the Champion form locked down, but the other two are still in need of work. I’ll be posting them up in good time, I’ve just had other priority’s getting in the way.

I am Always with You…

A bit more Shadow the Hedgehog Fanart as we are quickly closing in the release of Sonic the Hedgehog 3. As a life long fan of Shadow fan I’m getting super hyped and excited to see what appears to be a more faithful origin of him on the big screen. So needless to say Shadow has really been on my mind, so enjoy this heartwarming piece I did a few weeks back.

Shadow vs Black Doom

| Peter Ahola

Sorry for my slow upload as of late. I have been working on stuff, just been a little unattentive to the site. Anyway, here’s one of my latest masterpieces that I should note got a lot of attention on Facebook, Shadow the Hedgehog vs Black Doom. This is after all the year of Shadow the Hedgehog, we just got a great game and now are waiting to see him in his live action debut. After finishing said game, I was inspired to draw this. Used a famous Daredevil vs Kingpin picture as reference.

Halloween Draw Off Round 5

Our second to last round for this year’s draw off. This is our “original character” piece for the year. This year I’m combining both Kalwa and Amber into one piece, featuring both girls and their friends. And yes before anyone asks, this was kinda inspired by the Hex Girls from Scooby-Doo. I should also point out that Amber and Kalwa both are wearing previous costumes from older drawings in past years, costume for Reko and Zack are kinda first runs.

I’ll be uploading the finale for this year’s draw off on Halloween, stick around to see what it is.

Halloween Draw Off Round 4

| Peter Ahola

We’re rapidly closing in on Halloween time, which means we’ve got a draw off to finish. Here comes round 4 for this year’s draw off.

Our three subjects for this round are as follows. Samhain (with his goblin minions) from the Real Ghostbusters cartoon, my personal favorite Ghostbusters villain I should add. HP Lovecraft bring forth the mighty Cthulu. Then we finally have Godzilla for the first time in one of these draw offs. He’s always been one of my favorite fictional monsters but I’ve been to nervous to do him espeically since non human subjects aren’t my specialty. But I feel I’ve grown as an artist far enough to finally tackle him.

More Halloween art coming up.

Halloween Draw Off Round 3

| Peter Ahola

Round 3 for our 2024 Halloween Draw Off gets into some unique subjects. First up a little more of an innocent piece, the three main protagonists of Digimon Tamers Trick or Treating as their Digimon’s Mega Forms. This was inspired by a wallpaper I downloaded from Pintrest that had Rika dressed as her Digimon Sakyuamon.

Next up is our Owl House piece for the month, a crossover with Freddy Kruger. This was not originally planned as a Halloween piece, it was actually meant as a standard crossover for earlier this year. But I just kept putting it off and then when I couldn’t think of a Halloween Piece for this year, decided to whip it out.

Then we have the Balrog from Lord of the Rings. I said this year it would be all monsters and scary things, I never said it all had to be from horror related media. I first drew this guy as a lunchtime sketch I think last year and he was so much fun I wanted to make a real drawing of him.

More Hallowen art all month long.

Halloween Draw Off Round 2

| Peter Ahola

Time for a second round of Halloween art. This week we got some real terrors for you that come in some real weird forms, or non-forms. This week’s subjects are the Blob based off the 1980 remake, the Boogeyman from the Real Ghostbusters cartoon show and Coraline (with Other Mother) from the animated movie of the same name. More Halloween art coming all month long.

HALLOWEEN DRAW OFF ROUND 1

| Peter Ahola

It’s officially October, the best time of the year. You all know what that means, its time for the Annual Green Raptor Halloween Draw Off. Since I first started operating under the name Green Raptor Studios back in 2015, it has been a tradition to go all out at Halloween time drawing monsters, demons and anything scary from pop culture, as well as few Halloween themes to our own original characters… and a few things here and there. While it started off as a small thing on Deviant Art, over the years it’s grown only larger and is always one of the biggest events I look forward to all year.

This year we got FOURTEEN drawings planned that we will be putting up all month long. Starting off our parade this year is Pinhead from the Hellraiser series and the Ghost Host from the Haunted Mansion. Pinhead has constantly been denied every Halloween Draw off till now. While he’s one of my favorite horror villains, I’ve always been intimidated at drawing all the pins in his head due to complexity. But I’m feeling a bit more confident nowadays and he’s finally showing up for the parade.

The Ghost Host is this year’s Haunted Mansion piece, they almost always find their way here. First the Hatbox Ghost made his debut in this draw off early on when it first started and then last year it was Constance Hatchaway, the bride. Now it’s time for the Ghost Host to make his debut in this draw off. Happy October and stick around, I’ll be here all month long.

Wargreymon

Just posting a little more work before this site turns to spook central next month. So here’s a piece I did of WarGreymon, my favorite Digimon. Despite my desire to draw him one day, I had no idea what to do for a pose. This was kinda just a spill of the moment, though I’m still happy with the way it turned out.
