Mostly drawn in traditional non-photo blue penil and ink, with some digital printing, writing and drawing added to the picture.
Anyway, I made and posted this specail picture, despite how haapy it looks, in dedication to something.
This past week it was announce that Blockbuster was shutting down its remaining few serveral stores, ending a whole lot of its brick and mortar video-rental service. Being a former Blaockbusrter customer since the days of VHS technology, this was personal for me.
Being a guy who loved watching movies, I joined Blockbuster in around the 1990s at the same time I discovered the furry fandom. I was easy to obtain a membership, by just showing them my driver's licence as I recall. The Blockbuster store I used to rent and buy videos/DVDs had nice freindly employees, who would help you if you had trouble finding something. It often made me happy to go there sometimes. It was always often wonderful to just go there and wonder about, searching for what to rent and watch at home this week, wheneer I was depressed, bored, happy, joyful, sad. It was from there I got to find some of great movies like the surreal sci-fi animation "Fantastic Planet", the wacky laugh-out comedy "The Groove Tube", the comedy "Kentuky Fried Movie", and the classic yet dark, unhappy animated mvie "The Plague Dogs", one of my favorite animated movies, which included "Fantastic Planet". Other movies I recall renting from Blockbuister were "Dog Soliders", "Ginger Snaps" and "Ginger Snaps II" (all three werewolf horror movies), an obscure 1970s disaster movie spoof "The Big Bus", some "Monty Python" movies, the somewhat-good "Mickey Mouse and the three Musketeers" hand-drawn made-for-DVD movie, the Mork and Mindy pilot, and some documentuiry about leading women in martail arts called "Top Fighter 2: Deadly China Dolls."
I'm rather sad about the closing down news. My Blockbuster store closed down much earlier over a couple of years or so ago, where they sold all their renatl DVDs as well as empty DVD boxes. So now I have no other place to drive up and rent movies if I ever needed to do so. They now have these vending machine kiosks, which seem OK. But I never have so far used one of them because you have to have a credit card to rent from them, which I do not have. Plus it does not seem the same as going through a store to buy something and having another human being behind a cash register to make payment of the rental or purchase of the material involved. I miss that sort of thing.
Many tend to say the decline in video rental in brick-and-mortor stores on Netflix and online video. But I felt that far more than that. Blockbuster itself may had also had some play in its downfall by some mismanagment, such as canceling late return fees one time, people hav ing issues with how it handled mature material, and being clueless on how anime is rated.
Similarlly, I have had the same amount of sadness when Suncoast video was closed, which was whee I also bough many of my VHS tapes and DVDs of movies and TV shows. It was at Suncoast where I first got my hands on anime, with the first anime I have ever wathed were some "Dirty Pair" OAV episodes. Again the Suncaost Video place was a great cool place to shop, with freindly cool people that worked there.
Anyway, as sort of a tribute to the DVD and video business, this is a pretty, hot beagle working at a fictional place, "Vinnie's Home Entertainment" video store.

Oh god, Plague Dogs was wonderfully moving. I can't think of that film without being gripped by a sensation of sadness blended with...it's hard to describe, I want to say peace. I have the book, but I haven't dared pick it up, I can't put myself through it again, and it's been a year since I've seen the film!
Ohhh dear...but, musing. Years ago I'd always go to a local place and rent video games, one "Box Office", I was very much a nineties child, every thursday I'd come home with three games to tear through.
Never did I spy such a chesty canine cleavage as this, though.

First of all ....Yeah, "Plague Dogs"..... I understand where you have come from. It's a powerful animated movie, and it's one of reasons why I listed it as one of my favorite hand-drawn films over in my info description for "Bluecollie The Animator." It was so grim, so tough, so tragic and so disturbing and meaningful. I admired how the animators used the gloomy realistically-drawn animation that fit the whole mood of the story. It's a shame that this classic film has been overlook over the years, though it is now on DVD at last. It apparentlly is very different from usual American animated fare. It's no kiddie cartoon, even if it is hand-drawn animated movie.
I never heard of "Box Office". But I do remember that Blockbuster used to rent out video games, too, as well as sell equipment for video game playing. Though I admit I never did rent and play the games during my time there; I just go ther to rent of buy the movies.
By the way, I'm glad you took the time to respomd to my art. Yeah, that lovely dog is certainly built with quite a volumious pair of boobies almost bursting through her shirt, heh. I like drawing very volupuos, hot female characters with nice breasts and cleavage. I loved and enjoyed drawing her, and having her giving a sweet smile, even if I posted her image alongside some rather unhappy news.
