Artist's Comments

Contest entry for 's Halloween contest! Heh, this is the first time I've been brave enough to send in a pic. XD

Anyway, the contest requirements were either a picture of Yugioh characters visiting haunted places, or a horror movie parody. I had to do a werewolf movie, of course. X3

So, here's my Yugioh version of The Howling, with the ever creepy werewolf!Yami no Malik as Eddy Quist (the loony pervert werewolf), and poor Mai as Terry Fisher (main character's best friend, who unfortunately gets munched.)

For those who either haven't seen the movie or don't remember the scene, they're in Dr. George Waggner's office, and Terry (Mai) was rifling through the file cabinet for files on Eddy Quist. Eddy (Yami no Malik) popped up from behind the cabinet and chased her around the office until finally catching and killing her.

I took a few artistic liberties of course, such as the background of the office (haven't seen the movie in several months so I couldn't remember anything but the file cabinet and the desk), Yami no Malik's position (Eddy just slipped out from behind the cabinet and grabbed the files away, but our dear Head-Explody Yami just had to be a nut and clamber over the top and grab Mai's arm), and where in the files Mai was looking (he's not "Quist, Eddy", he's "Ishtar, Malik"!)

I'm actually very proud of this picture, and I should be really, it took me five hours just to color! XD My favorites are Mai's jacket and Yami no Malik's fur. The filing cabinet could've been better (I can't draw straight lines for the life of me), and the background was rather last second, but overall I like it.

And the shadows? Took me forever. @_@ I did it all in Open Canvas 1.1, so there were no "drop shadow" filters or nothin'. I had to do it all by hand. *rubs her poor aching fingers*

"I'm gonna eat you~"
"Eeeek. ;____;"

That's cute... the werewolf's head looks kind of small though. Not to be mean... :D But I like it!

This looks really amazing. I'd say it's your best yet. :D The coloring is fantastic and so is the lineart. Awesome job on the shadow, too. Good luck in the contest! ^_^

Yeah, whenever I draw that kind of werewolf the heads always turn out a little small...but Yami no Malik has a HUGE (and I mean bigger than Yuugi's) head of hair, so translating that into a ruff threw the proportions off a tad.

He's actually skinnier underneath all that fur. In fact, if you doused him in water--and managed to get away without him eating you--he would lose about 40% of his body mass. XD
:iconlinake:
Mwahaa!! Kill 'er, kill 'er!!! XD (For the sake of all that is not-annoying, PLEASE kill her... -.o )

Hehe, can ya tell I don't like Mai...? :D

(Screw subtitles. If I wanted to read anime, I'd buy the manga.)

Cool... Yami Mariku is awesome as a werewolf. :) You should add his spikey hair, but that might be pretty hard right?

I like Mai's expression. :)

Listen...I want to eat it...Not become its friend!!! :sushi:
:icongothicstargirl:
Well, I tried, but it is indeed hard to get all the spikes on his head (without making him look like he'll fall over. XD) So I made it into a biiiig fluffy ruff around his neck, which screws the proportions but he looks cool. And fuzzy. *pets him*

...*draws back a nub* Dammit! X_x
