Wow awesome stuff! :D

Thanks!

I avoided that movie for fear of how bad I'm guessing it was.

-B!

Interpret this how you will...It was better than Superman Returns.

Actually, I thought it was pretty fun. The again, I'm a sucker for a superhero movie ^.^;

<_< Manos, Hands of Fate is better than Superman Returns.

I don't know if I'd go that far, but it does make Batman Forever look good.

Still, Superman Returns does have a couple of good sequences...Yet made Metropolis seem like a smaller city that it should be during the "save the city" sequence.

It was a decent superhero movie, but it lacked a serious punch.

They needed to balance story and action a little better. After all, the man came from Action Comics!

-B!

I think you hit the nail on the head there, aside from the plane rescue the movie had little "oomph"

There's no need to fear! Underdog is here! or...there!

He's also on my shelf!

-B!

Good question. Cool looking rendition of Underdog.

I imagine that would start to get annoying when you go threw them like paper cut outs?

It's a have/have not kind of thing.

You see, villains that don't have the powers of the typical super-hero feel they need to do something to "show them up." As it requires both power and mobility (because nobody likes to sit back waiting for a beating), robots are made to order. (They also give the hero something else to beat on instead of the builder.)

The problems start when the power levels need to be scaled up to match/beat the hero. More power (both offensive and defensive) requires larger components. Large components means more power is required for mobility, which forces that to be scaled up as well. Eventually, the builder either settles for "good enough" or thinks they've reached an efficiency plateau.

That's when the big pile of junk is sent on "walkies"...

It's that never ending battle over what you want it to do and what you can manage to make it do.

-B!

Exxcellent art, Brian. Go Underdog!! Gee, maybe the villians have some short comings.

Nice job once again, but it does beg a question.

What do you do for work?

You would be too if you had to fight tons of giant robots!

-B!

Cool pic and I like your take. Though I have to say, not sure what I think about the costume >.O

Speaking of Underdog...http://www.furaffinity.net/view/3358913/

Not bad at all!

Further back in the depths of my gallery I've got a pic of UnderDog and Super Chicken, and I think hong Kong Fooy.

-B!

Thanks! And I think I saw it, but now I have to go look again ^.^

Happy hunting, it's way back there!

And speaking of Way-Back, I've also done a Peabody and Sherman pic. Which means someday I might have to draw Rocky & Bullwinkle.

-B!

I saw that one, and while combining Mr Peabody and Jack the Ripper is kinda sick, Peabody probably would have solved that case...Unless you were suggesting Mr Peabody WAS the Ripper ^.^;

I've done a "realistic" Rocky and Bullwinkle but I think your take would be much more interesting :D

Oh no, the guy int he shadows was the Ripper.

and I'm sure Mr. Peabody could solve the case!

We need a full-body plate of this Underdog design, methinks.
And don't foget, U-Dog always speaks in rhymes:
"How is it, that villans have always got,
This thing for big, giant robots?"

I think I only drew AD once... maybe twice.

-B!

Because they take on anything but superheroes without trouble. And some models come optional with anti-hero capabilities.

I only buy the best, naturally. And build them better after.

... THAT DOESN'T RHYME!!!

>_>

He doesn't always have to rhyme... not if he's not feeling it!

-B!

Personally I think the breaking character serves to further illustrate his angst and frustration.

Which is something they did in the movie ;p

Never saw it.

As I think I mention elsewhere, it's worth checking out.

Good question...

Because they're cool.....

.... or because they have size compensation issues like guys who buy sports cars and over-sized trucks.... one or the other.

Go to 00:55.

Heh heh heh! Thanks!

Superheroes should be grateful for the giant robots. It allows them to shred them apart without running afoul of a tainted conscience, moral activists or network broadcast censorship!

Awesome Under Dog artwork

Giant robots can't unionize.

Oooo good answer!

-B!

Now, send him after the producers of the movie!
What drives the villanous madmen that make live action mods of the classics? it's like they dont even try to have some ties to the source material. UD was an ANTHRO dog, in a world where humans and anthros co-exist without thinking it strange.
As soon as I saw the trailer, I vowed to never see that movie unless I am too drunk to care. Still have not seen it.

I believe it's in the rule book. Hold on a sec...*riffles through pages* Yep, right here next to the mandatory expository monologue mandate.

Kickass jaded Underdog there.

And I guess giant robots are more cost-effective than actual giants.

everything is big in texas except the penis

I always assumed Giant Robots were preferred because of the obedience issue ... they do what you say and don't give you any backtalk. Unless you programmed them to backtalk you, of course, but that's a clear case of 'that's your own damn fault'.

Not bird, nor plane, nor even frog, it's just little old me, Underdog.

8)

It's a compensation thing, you wouldn't understand UD *shake head*

Awesome, great work there Underdog, you defeated... wait... Isn't that Dr. Light's Auto?!

Auto had it coming!

well, if you needed some thing menacing and merciless looking to demonstrate your evil power, what else could you use besides a giant robot?

Giant mutant crab?

what would that look like?

Like a regular crab, but giant and mutant. ;)

where do you get one of those? because most giant robots are built in one's mom's basement.

True, a merely colossal robot is more environmentally responsible, but it makes you look like a total tool!

Word!

Maybe some lovin' from Polly Purebred would lift his spirits a bit...:lol:

Oh yeah!

'UN-DER-DOGGGG'!

-SWEET; and on a Side-note, not a Single F*K was given to Any Robot towards UD on this DAY-

Thanks, 4 the PIC, mann; take care as always, my friend.

-Robots are so F*K'N Predictable- -XD-

The dog makes a good point. What the fuck, villains? What the fuck?

Simple, they are tougher than the average henchman, but just as expendable! :D

"What's with heroes and capes?" xP

They look cool!

-B!

Exactly!
