bento sketch book #5

Before I go onto bento sketch book, I want to show off something…

I received a very rare Pink Castle Crasher from Luis from Newgrounds!

Came with bunch of weapons as well.

I think I wrote about how he was holding a contest “make an edible pink castle crasher!” at Newgrounds.com on my blog before, and he picked three winners! (Check out his site for the winners.)

Anyway, I sent the picture of my Pink Castle Crasher bento to Tom Fulp (one of the creators of Castle Crashers), but I wrote that since I wasn’t a member on Newgrounds.com to begin with, I felt that it’d be unfair to register for the site just to enter the contest, but I still wanted him to see it. Then we received an email, asking us if we want a Pink Castle Crasher anyway. We would’ve been insane to say no. There exists only 15 Pink Castle Crasher figures in the world! It just makes me happy when the original creator of something I created actually gets to see my creation, so for them offering me something so precious just blew me away. I do feel bad about those who entered the contest, trying to win this desperately, and thought about not putting the picture of it on my blog, but… come on! It looks so freaking awesome!

I’d like to thank Luis and Tom from Newgrounds and Dan from the Behemoth studio for being such cool creators of awesome games!

Now onto my bento sketch book…

Bento #36: Penny Arcade Robot

As you can see in the drawing, I wanted to put the kitty from the game… but I couldn’t. Also I had no idea what I was going to use for the bottom part. I just wrote down “broccoli.” But I happened to make teriyaki chicken the night before, so I decided to use it in the morning.

Bento #37: Headcrab from Half-life

I’m so embarrassed by this drawing. I just couldn’t draw Headcrabs. They all looked like turkeys. This was a very rare case that the actual bento ended up looking better than the drawing.

Bento #38: Payatan from Da Mahou Touge

I just drew Payatan and bunch of faces for each vegetable on the side. I didn’t like how Payatan’s face came out in the actual bento though… He doesn’t look like him. =/ I guess I’ll have to make Payatan with his serious face someday.

Bento #39: Mehazawa from Cromartie High

I was feeling ambitious when I drew this, thinking that I could put those two guys in the bunny and bear suit. I drew Mechazawa sitting in the desk, but I couldn’t think of anyway to do it, so I just made him standing up, but I had to cut off his legs… And for some reason, Mechazawa’s brother is floating in the air, which also has no feet. This is what happens if you don’t plan things in advance.

Bento #40: Braid

This is the drawing of FAIL. It took so long to draw this, and it took even longer to make food look like it. It was a disaster. As I wrote in the original post, I ran out of the time, so I didn’t make the main character’s head. But I didn’t want to waste the lower body part, so I just stuck it in there. I don’t even know what happened to the bunny…
