It's funny tho~ I was hoping I would be playing with both of you too, holding a Wii Wheel, with a sweat drop on the head or something. x3

It's alright. I'm always so busy with things I rarely post around here. x.x Maybe next time you can draw more Vixy love. ^^

I have to tell you tho, I'm very good at the game.

Originally I wanted t have you and Nova playing as well, but when I drew Nova to Shinobu's side, he looked so off that I just got annoyed, drew a line there and drew him in the middle. So if I do another, I'll have you playing as well. ^^

I love how well handled the items were in 64, and the banana-brake defense if you hit one except if you're in a turn. Even the blue shell as you mentioned was handled well. At least you weren't the only one getting smacked around with it.

I played MKWii last night, 50cc on the last cup featuring the new tracks. Guess how many blue shells I got on the first track? Three of them, not to mention I also get double hit with a POW box or a lightning before or after the shell. A bit too excessive to be honest, because even in 64 Blue Shells seemed that much rarer.

I missed seeing that face sadly. But Beckham looks really well done here, Borock.

I do that with the fake item boxes for the most part.  Mostly I keep items stuck behind me as a safeguard against red shells, although MKWii, the fake box doesn't protect you like they used to. O.o

You are never late, Vixy, everyone else is just too early.

Don't forget those crazy driving instructors!

Oh jeeze, I remember that episode.

UPDATE



Done at work.
I hate that stupid Wii Wheel, I much prefer the controller. >.> Random appearances by Vixy, PB, and Nova. Please forgive the hands, they look horrible. >.<

And... the skin tones to the Phan/Shi picture is done, at least for now. I may go back over it again. The blending on Shinobu's thigh is bothering me...

I actually kind of envisioned a single Rainbow-warping course, where at every lap a warp pipe takes you to another version of Rainbow Road, eventually crossing every one.  It could be the final course of the highest Retro Cup.

That would be an interesting twist, I have to say. It would definitely keep your focus on the track when it shifts. And if such a retro cup were to be done, they better put Royal Raceway in it, heck I'm surprised it wasn't in MKWii, instead you get three Bowser based tracks. I liked 64's Bowser Castle but the other retro one they had... not so much. 

DAMN STRAIGHT!

Unfortunately, I think that's one more side-effect of attempting to balance a broken item system.  With so much out there now that targets the leaders, the likelihood of the player getting knocked off, say, the jump in Waluigi Stadium, is that much greater.

I remember that on Wario Stadium, when I get that string of bananas and I'm in the lead, I try to plant them all near the edge of the final jump in the chance that the AIs would drive into them and fall off the edge. It was hilarious when it happened to three of them at around the same time in one game I was playing.

I'm not going yet. As I said, it depends on my brother and his expenses at the time, although Coca-Cola is having 15$ off admissions there. (I hope he does though. *Wants to ride Intimidator badly    *

Who said I didn't? I'm stuck here reviewing video games...

Seriously? Do you get paid for it? If so than that's awesome.

I may be crazy to say this, but I'd like to see a hidden cup unlocked once you get Expert mode, containing the previous Rainbow Road tracks. (64's most definately, it is that epic) But I'm an RR fan.

I do enjoy the MKWii game, except that the 150cc and Mirror, everybody at the back seems to get a hold of the blue shell every time they hit an item box. I don't mind challenges and fighting to keep 1st place, but that's just a little ridiculous when that shell is constantly flying after you, and there's very little you can do about it.

Borock, did I ever tell you that you're one of my heroes here? The comic is just awesome, and it figures Dodoria would get him the cheapest watch he could find. But leave it to Freeza to trust a henchman with such a task.

Got up early due to the dog jumping on me. Took a shower and went to visit my brother for a few hours, and he and I made plans to go here: http://www.kingsdominion.com on a monday he and I both get off, and he has some spare cash for the ticket. (He's got a kid on the way so he can't toss money around that much. ) Planning on riding the new roller coaster that opened this spring.

Got some groceries came home, tried to take a nap and am now attempting some concept designs for the DBZ cast. That's about it.

Time on Namek moves very, very slowly obviously.

Either that or Freeza just can't time things right at all.

 Youtube, search 'Dragonball Kai episode 1' and watch from there. They're at least going to the end of the Freeza saga, haven't heard anything about ding the Cell or Buu ones though.

That's awesome. Good to see the planet's not crumbling too.

At least not yet.

Aww... You look so cute down there fangirling.

And darn it.
A game that determines the fate of our world.
And yet, the result will be the same: Screwed world.

Thanks. I'm one of the few willing to be that close it seems. Although I know some Freeza fangirls on DA as well.

Yeah pretty much. But at least he isn't using the world as the ball.

Freeza transformed to his last form to play an epic game of ping pong...with planets!
Oh I remeber the good old days when I was practising drawing him...hmmm maybe I should try it again

I don't know who he's facing, but a part of me feels bad for his opponent.

I'd be interesting in seeing those BH.

Thanks guys and yes, it'll be colored. Actually their skin tones are done at the moment.

And yes, thanks to Borock's recent pictures and the DBZ convo that followed, I have drawn Freeza joining the Ping Pong games. First time drawing his 4th form actually. Death Ball looks like crap though, and yes... that's me at the bottom fangirling. >.>

Enjoy!

My goodness what a conversation. Don't worry guys! I'm tracking the Dragonballs as we speak!

((On Freeza's name - The Dragonball Wiki (I know, I know. But it was closest one to grab that lists his names) lists his anime name as Frieza, his manga name as Freeza, his alt. names as Furiza or Freezer.

Like his brother and father, Frieza's name is a pun on all things relating to the cold. As both Cooler's and Frieza's names end in a short "a" vowel (rather than the long "ā" which usually signifies "er" in kana spellings on English words), Frieza's name is typically spelled with an "a" at the end (as opposed to "Freezer").

There are multiple spellings to his name. Frieza is the Funimation dub's spelling. The manga translation uses 'Freeza' and some other places use 'Furiza' or even 'Freezer' as his name. So either one is correct really.
