but the other digletts do not seem amused

Yeah, I think they're concerned. Truthfully, the little dugtrio figure I have looked like that though. I was shocked.

For me, what makes this portrait is Dirtbag's mouth and lips. And that hanging ciggie. Perfect expression work.

Thanks. I agree. It was one of those things that fell out of my pencil during the process.

Oh man that is friggin' epic man. Thanks for providing such an interesting and funny picture; nobody else thunk of an TMNT-meets-Pokemon' crossover. It had to be done.

Heh, just sorta fell into my head.

Very nice drawing

Thanks.

Welcome

Ha that's great. And you're picking some neat characters. What's the motivation behind which character you select for drawing?

Thanks. Ummm... I dunno. I do like the randomness. Since there's so many incarnations of TMNT, there's lots to choose. I just do which one comes to mind first.

another character I didn't know.... it looks interesting...... and with your style, Phraggle, it gets better!!........

Thanks so much.

you'rre very welcome, my friend!!!......

YES!! Another figure from my top five favorite Turtle figures! Dirtbag may even be in my top three.

I was so upset when my grandparents dog chewed on my Dirtbag figure's foot. I rescued him before he got too chewed up, but still. Why couldn't it have been...Ray Fillet? She could have devoured him.

It's always the favorite ones that get broken, isn't it?

EEK! That's awful. I remember when my sister's original Princess Leia ( and later mine ) got in the mouth of the neighbor's dog. Luckily it only bent her nose & Mom was able to rearrange it back to normal. It got my Vader too now that I think about it. Mom made a felt cape for him ( cuz they were these odd vinyl things back then ).

I like Ray Fillet. :D

I feel a tad strange though cuz I was starting high school when I got into turtles and comics and stuff. I sorta naturally became one of those guys that bought action figures in my.... post-childhood years.

The neighbors dog had a thing for Princess Leia, eh?

Well, okay, I like Ray Fillet enough to own him.

But given the choice as to which Turtles figure of mine I'd rather become a chew toy...
I'm afraid Ray would be the one thrown to the wolves, err, schnauzer.

I accidentally broke the arm off my favorite Battle Beast figure too. The worst part about that was that it was my fault. I couldn't blame the dog, I could only get mad at myself (which I did).

Trying to figure out how old was I when I got into Turtles? Hmm, about nine or ten or so, I guess. I'm sure I was still playing with them in at least the first year of middle school. Maybe not. But I do remember thinking, I must be too old to playing with action figures by now. Maybe I wasn't?

Another figure I really liked, who wasn't TMNT but got included with them because he was the same scale, was Al Negator from "Bucky O'Hare and the Toad Wars". I thought he was cool looking. Purple mercenary alligator, how can you go wrong?

Sorry, going off on a tangent again.

Heh, I have a few Battle Beasts. I always liked the snake guy.

I was about... 13 or 14 when I got into the comics which was either in '87 or '88. As I got older, I wound up buying more action figures.

I do have all of the first series of Bucky O'Hare figures too. And yeah, Al Negator was a fave of mine. I always thought Bucky himself was a cool figure as well.

haha sweet cross over! never saw this figurine back in the day though :0

I think I saw him, bought him and... that was about it. He has a weird head though.

looks very nice :), but he not appears in the tv show?, i think i looked in one episode :)

Thanks. I think he was at least in one episode but I never saw it. I saw a picture though. They made him look more like a big, grey bear.

Aw man, Dirtbag. a pain in TMNT III. This is hilarious though. :3

Thanks. Was he in a video game then?

Is Bull's - Eye next? Poor Dirtbag would miss his buddy.

Ya mean, Groundchuck? He's on the to-do list.

Was that his name? Thanks for reminding me. My memories of Groundchuck are sorta blurry; all I remember was that he seem to have a decent action figure and that both he and Dirtbag were buddies in their one episode together.

I only know them from their figures. I never saw the episodes but I guess they were paired together.

Eeep. That made my horns hurt.

And both Dirtbag and Groundchuck were in here too. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xB5OWyqq1I

Glad you liked the episodes. It took awhile to find them.

Uh oh, don't hurt the poor lil pokemon! ^^

He won't. The 3 behind him will see to that.

Good! Though Dirtbag looks like he could take them on ^w^

Yeah but he works for Shredder. And Shredder seems to employ those of a sort of... " challenged " nature.

I guess that's good! Plus the Diglett doesn't appear to be worried XD

Naw. Digletts are always happy. Dugtrios though... I think they can be tough customers.
