Mark I movie armor

I picked the Mark I armor from the movie. The great thing about this armor is it captures the look of the gray armor in the comics, but looks like it was hastily put together from anything they could find. As far as it being a challenge against other armor, well...

Mark III Early 90's

I donned the Mark III Early 90's version of the suit used in Armor Wars II. Iron Man has so many cool suits, but I always come back to the classic red and gold.....and for me, Armor Wars II had me hooked.

Armor Awesomeness

To celebrate the new movie, the challenge is to pick your favorite Iron Man armor, from comics or movie, draw it and do battle against the apposing armor the next week. The art above is a cover from the first Iron Man comic I read when I was a kid. I was hooked after that.

Even wandering probes need love...


Yes, it's not outside the realm of possibilities that the Salt Vampire could trick NOMAD for a while. Maybe taking the form of an old fling, Darlene 413 (codename SEXYHOBO), dazzling his sensors. After realizing he was being probed a little too roughly, NOMAD would sterilize the biological imperfection. Shortly after, NOMAD would analyze that it felt love with a biological imperfection and would initiate self-sterilization. THE END.

Pure Salt Logic


Pulling out one from the classic Jame T. Kirk playbook....the salt sucker uses that ever handy shape shifting ability to bring Mr. Smartypants down to his invisible knees.

Can I Have More Salt Please?


A deadly shape shifting creature that feeds off salt....could be your lover, could be your friend, could even be your old country doctor.....but when you feel those suckers, SCREAM FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!

Enter NOMAD


Star Trek Creature Challenge: Sure, he's all STERILIZE this and STERILIZE that, but I think with his knowledge and smart 60s retro look, he belongs behind a wetbar. He looks like a martini shaker after all. Maybe Kirk would have kept him around a little longer if he had picked up some new skills. At any rate, the precursor to V'ger should be able to give any Star Trek creature a run for his money.

Star Trek Thunderdome


For our next thunderdome challenge, you guessed it.......Star Trek!! This thunderdome is open to any and all lifeforms from that universe, that can survive and fit within the confines of an M Class planet. That means no giant solar system eating amoebas, space ship crushing hands, or giant space turds allowed.......you get the point.

Gezora vs Cyclops


Ohhhh Cyclops....you come at me with a match. I will come at you with the full fury of my might. Long live cuttlefish!

Put away the tartar sauce


Even though the cyclops from the 7th Voyage of Sinbad would put up a fight for a while, there's only so long he could hold out over the giant seafood. Gezora has reach (times eight) and weight over the cyclops. Dragged to his dark demise, he'd eventually be devoured whole into the mouth of Gezora, a true behemoth.

The Rail Splitter

Woolfsevelt might have ferocious animal energy, but all the mighty Lincolnstein needs is one punch - and brass knuckles made of silver - to emancipate "Teddy" of his curse... and life. So much for the "trust buster".

Claw and ScRaTCH....and...BITE,BITE!



Though mighty Lincolnstein might be among the annuls of Presidential history.......he found himself no match for Wolfsevelt and his ferocious animal energy. Slow and encumbered by sub-standard body parts, Wolfsevelt quickly put Humpty Dumpty back into a million pieces again.

President Lincolnstein


Happy Presidents Day!

President Woolfsevelt


What If and unbeknown st to the American People, President Roosevelt had led a secret life at night running out among the wild, and terrorizing the streets of our nation's capital? Those long hunting trips and safaris.....could they have been more than just mere adventure? Howooooooooooooo!!!!! Here comes the night.

President Monster


In honor of the upcoming Presidents Day, we've decided to postpone Behemoth Battle for now and move onto a new entry. This scenario first involves picking a president from the annals of history and combining him with a classic movie monster and then painting a presidential portrait of the combination. Classy. Lincolnstein? Zombie Nixon? John Quincy Adamsula? Chester "A Wolfman" Arthur? After that we'll each paint a battle scene, which should serve as a model of how future congressional disagreements should be approached. Unleash Grover Cleveland! Muh-ha-ha-haaa.

Battle of the Behemoths!


For this week's challenge Mr. Shear and myself picked a giant monster from movies. The Challengers: In Jared's corner, standing approximately 30 meters high and weighing at 20,000 tons – Gezora, the mighty space cuttlefish! In my corner, standing at approximately 12 meters high and an undetermined weight, the Cyclops from the 7th Voyage of Sinbad. Sea monster vs. mythical monster man. Man in Rubber suit vs. Stop-motion animation. Calamari vs monster-who-lacks-depth-perception. Let the battle begin!

Pillow stuffing



How often do you get to make muscular robots choke ostriches? Not very, so you make every moment count. I had to ammend my pic to add in the pummeled mount, but I think you can tell it and the rider took a pasting by the new and improved Berzerk Bot. Oh yes...

Through Flames Of Fire He Stabith Thee!


From out of the gloom he comes.....in their darkest hour he rides. His path is destruction. Robots lay in his wake.

Ewok Battle

Here's my late entry for Ewok vs. Robot Monster. Ok, so I cheated a little and added a few extra Ewoks. I can say with certainty that I'm done drawing fur for a while (I hope). I think Jared's image wins based on raw fury. I'm looking forward to the next drawing smackdown.

ROBOT MONSTER vs WICKET - ROUND 1


Let the games begin......Wicket being overpowered by the brutal indescribable tactics of Monster Robot, quickly finds himself in a death grip, soon to be vaporized by deadly cosmic rays. But Wicket, coming from a race of creatures known throughout the universe for overcoming mathematically impossible odds, is not ready to give up yet. Who will it be?........da, da, DUMMMMM!!!

Robot Monster = Indescribable Terror


I've unleashed a devastating creature to take part in the first battle. A thing so terrible and monstrous.....that only but a handful ever survived to tell about it.


To fully understand the nature of this beast, a secret film was stolen showing the monster as it carves a path of destruction across the face of the planet.

First Battle. Bring It! (Yub Yub.)

Myself and the ignominious Mr. Shear agreed to pick a creature from a sci-fi movie of our chosing. Today the choices are revealed! Ok, here's my entry for the first battle. (Don't laugh.): The furry with fury, the beast from the east (of Endor), the ender of the Empire - Wicket of the Ewoks.
