Custom GI Avatars: Season2 Episode1

Hello cool people, how are you?! I was thinking that since I've made it past the 100 mark that perhaps my blog format could use some change. The previous setup was a little messy, but it provided for what I thought was a somewhat entertaining game where I didn't reveal the full name of the characters, leaving you to try and figure them out yourself. It was loosely based of the "Check Mii Out" Channel on Wii, where users can post their Mii creations, but were only allowed to post the initials of the names.

So as I said I'm going to put a little more effort into it. Tell me if you like it or if I should go back to the old ways.

 

Tim

Braid

I would have to say that Tim is one of my more unique avatars as it's the first time that I've really tried to bring over another art style.

 

Daffy Duck

Looney Tunes

Daffy is and will always be my favorite cartoon character hands down. I believe he was at his best in the Duck Dodgers cartoon series. My favorite episode was where he was a temporary member of the Green Lantern Corps, it was simply epic!

 

Dee Dee

Dexter's Laboratory 

If I had posted Daffy Duck in my previous format it would have simply said "D. D." and that's the thought that led me to create Dee Dee.  I think we all have a Dee Dee in our lives. Coming in to our personal spaces uninvited, pressing buttons and breaking things. My Dee Dee came when I was 15 years old. Growing up an only child for that long left me extremely unprepared to deal with my little sister. She just started First Grade last week, by the way.

 

Auron

Final Fantasy X

This guy is most certainly one of the coolest in the video game realm. He is quite simply a bad *ss. At first I was going to post him with both hands on the controller and without the shirt sleeve hanging off to the side, but that wouldn't have done him justice.

 

Skull Kid

the Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

This is most definitely the most detailed piece I've ever done and the mask took me forever to do. I just had to portray the demented, colorful darkness of Majora's Mask or it just wouldn't have felt right.

 

Skull Kid

I originally designed Skull kid first with a image of the mask taken from an official concept art that I got from the internet and placed over him as a place holder. Once I finished him, I then started work on the mask. I always felt sorry for  the Skull Kid, he was just a lonely fellow.

 

Iron Man

Marvel Comics

I modeled Iron Man's mask from the movies, everything else was of my own design. I sometimes like to use my own interpretations of characters when making these avatars.

 

Bender

Futurama

Any body who doesn't agree that this avatar is great can bite it's shiny, pixelated  *ss!

 

Flexo

I couldn't do a Bender without doing a Flexo.

 

Rainbow Dash

My Little Pony

Interesting story about this one. I just arrived home from Kentucky and I decided to work on my avatars. I also decided to listen to the Indie and Mojo show as I heard I was mentioned. This was the avatar that I was making while listening. During the show they started talking about the Brony "infestation" and my avatars. I thought "neat, what a nice coincidence".  As I finished the avatar and proceeded to click "save" Indie asked me to please not make a My Little Pony avatar. Needles to say I was a little freaked out. I also now believe that my avatars, GIOR and the Indie and Mojo show were destined to be!

 

Bob-Omb

Mario series

Are they all named Bob?

Comments
  • Loony Toons is one cartoon I never get tired of. And Duck Dodgers is still one of my favorite cartoons, it just cracks me up every time lol.
  • These are great! Especially Skull Kid!

  • Very cool batch sir, and this presentation highlighting each one is slick. And thank you for the award avatar :D I may not actually use it for my pic, but you've earned some advertising space in my profile for sure ;D
  • Very cool. I do have a request, though... can you make a Dr. Zoidberg avatar?
  • Another cool batch. Guess which one I'm borrowing? ;)>
  • Another fine bit of work Mr. Furgy! The two worlds have now collided with a Brony by Furgy avatar. Skull kid is awesome is there is a high probability that it may end up to the left of my name very soon! Now you need to add them to your 108 avatar collage so I can update my header.
  • These are fantastic! It's always fun to browse through the latest batch that you provide. Seriously, well done!
  • These are pretty cool

  • These are very cool, as always. I really like the amount of detail you put into them, especially the Skull Kid with Majora's Mask.

    As for the Rainbow Dash one, I would definitely use it... but I really like my current avatar. It's a 20% Cooler pony with bowtie and a fez, AKA the epitome of cool.

    But thanks for making it! I'm not sure if you care for anything FiM related, or heck, even if you're interested in the show, but thanks anyways. As for the people who are annoyed by the avatars... really all I can say is relax.

    I can understand not liking the puns we were posting awhile back, but the avatars are just pictures. And it's not like we do it as a joke or something, we legitimately love the show because it's a legitimately good cartoon, as ironic and strange as that sounds.

    /Rant

    And on a completely unrelated note: Please make an avatar for The Doctor! (Doctor Who) :D
  • Really cool, I think you've outdone yourself this time around. Also, another congrats to eyros2k for achieving what few(or none) others have. And Kudos to you, TurdFurgy, for taking that congratulations farther then anyone else on this site has. Also.....WOOO Auron!....A Final Fantasy character that mirrors my own "in person" personality.
  • Thanks for the shout out. I have many more Hero pics.

  • These are really good! Where can I find them all?!?!
  • Since you made a Rainbow Dash avatar you are now 10% cooler. (I had to take off the other 10% because you aren't part of the Brony group. But 10 is still good!)
  • I've been looking at your avatars for quite some time now, but never really got the chance to say anything.  They are fantastic.  I really like the Bender & Iron Man ones!

  • great job once again  i'd have to say i like this formate better  its just easier imo to go through not that it was hard b4  just looks cleaner kinda

  • These are awesome!
