I already saw this on Twitter, but I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas here too.
Also I noticed that you changed Crash's colors in this one, no pink muzzle mainly, some inspiration from the newest game perhaps?

Hello.. Can you do a drawing of Crash Bandicoot, Dingodile and Ripper Roo (with his Crash 2 outfit) all together? They are my favourite characters and i'm sure they would look great in your style

Hello there Geb! Thanks for checking and Merry Christmas! I always draw Crash in my own way. I often make him look a little different/ I've colored his muzzle in one solid color before but you get a little hint of the pink at the bottom of his nose if you look a little closer.

Unknown I'm so busy right now I'm not sure when I'll have a chance to do a drawing like that. But it would be fun and an interesting challenge. I'll keep it in mind and try to do something in days ahead.

Hey mr Charles zembillas are you gotta make the crash bandicoot cartoon series episode since from 1996 but are you planning to make it 2021

Tyler said...

Mr Charles zembillas can you draw Rilla Roo for me please and I am a big fan of him

Charles Z said...

Hello Tyler. I'm not involved in anything concerning Crash. Whatever is being done creatively or otherwise it's different people. My plans for 2021 are in the works and involve the launch of my own character based project which I've been developing for many years. As for Rilla Roo I don't necessarily enjoy drawing other people's characters. I didn't design this character so I'm not inclined to draw it. But I see it's a good design so I may do it after all in my own way. You're gonna have to be patient until I can get to it. It will be a while.

Hello, Mr. Zembillas. I remember coming across a concept you did for Filmation you posted a few years back, and I'd like to know if you have any more drawings, designs, or stories from Filmation you'd be willing to share sometime on the blog. Big fan of Filmation (and also Crash Bandicoot of course)

Hi Nicholas. Nice job. Now try casting an overhead light source on the character and show a shadow layer to give it dimensionality and see what happens.

Hi Amber. I have a huge amount of unpublished art from my days at Filmation. I was scanning some of these drawings to archive them and got super busy. It will take a while to accomplish this but I'll have a chance a little later on. I'm in the middle of a big transition right now. Once this is taken care of I'll be able to get back to it. Lots of He-Man, She-Ra, concept sketches, development art, character rotations, drawings from BraveStarr and more. Thanks for checking in and expressing your interest. It'll give me added incentive.

Also I have all the original development art for Crash Nitro Kart from 2002 that has yet to be published. Not just what I did but the art from the entire crew.

How did I miss this art? Man what a good Christmas gift.
