Description
Whoo! Another large project done!
This is the sequel to fox-the-wandering.deviantart.c… .
Only this time, I'm featuring the guys and it's a piece that takes place underneath the warm summer stars, outside of one of my favorite diners of all time, Mel's Diner. This is my first time drawing a diner, so it won't look perfect, but honestly, I loved how it turned out.
Whom we've got hanging around the parking lot of the diner? Ty Parsec from Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, Blitz of Road Rovers, Antoine D'Coolette of Sonic the Hedgehog fame (Archie Comics), and finally, Edgar Frog of The Lost Boys. Why? Because I think they'd make a great group of greasers.
They're also hanging out with a couple of familiar faces of the car world-the blue 1951 Hudson Hornet on the far left (a cameo of Doc Hudson from the Cars world), the yellow 1932 Ford Deuce Coupé from the film American Graffiti, and last but CERTAINLY not least, the red and white 1958 Plymouth Fury of Christine fame. I have a feeling she's going to come after me since I didn't introduce her first.
Annnnyway. This post is also a gift to a couple of good folks out there- , , and . I owe them so much. I can't really find the right words to thank them for all they've done for me, so this is but a humble gift to show them my appreciation. Thank you for all you guys have done. <3
Enjoy and have happy days!
Disclaimer: I could write a long list of all the characters living in their current countries, but that'd take forever and I just about listed where they came from anyway. XD

I really love this though, wow! I WOULD FAVE IT FOREVER IF I COULD.

YES THEY MUST; THEY ASSEMBLE IN THEIR HOT RODS AND COOL CARS TO FIGHT CRIME. STAY TUNED FOR THE NEXT EXCITING ADVENTURE THEY HAVE.
Edgar Frog turned out much better than I thought and I'm glad I chose him here; he really adds to the scene with that spunk of his! I'm also happy that you love this piece, but I should be the one thanking you for all you've done for me. Enjoy and fave it forever for all time.
...And you've won the blushing game again! Draaaat. XD

THEY MUST, AND I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW AMAZING THEIR ADVENTURES MUST BE.
I love him! You did a great job with him, and I'm so glad you thought to include hi in the first place. Haha he sure has spunk, he'll be the plucky sidekick to the gang who thinks he's all badass. I can imagine that very well.
Bwhahah I win again! >D

YES THEIR ADVENTURES WOULD ROCK SO MUUUUUCH
Yes, his spunk is definitely a great addition to the gang, although it could get him into trouble lol.
BUT I WILL WIN THE GAME NEXT TIME DARN YOOOOOU XD

THEY NEED A THEME SONG.
Haha I can see it getting him into trouble a lot, but that's just part of Edgar frog's charm I suppose. XD
I AM READY FOR YOU, MY WORTHY ADVERSARY.

Awww, thank you so much! You're really sweet!
Everything in this picture looks great. The guys are perfect! I love Blitz's pose, too. XD It fits him, perfectly. I also think the cars turned out really well! I've tried cars before so I already know how tough they must have been. The lighting effect from the diner is really good, too. It's a nice detail.
Edgar's totally in the getting-run-over zone though. He better get outta there.
Again thank you so much for this. It turned out fabulously! I love it.

But you're so welcome, Lilikoi. I'm really happy that you love this piece. ^^
Yes, Blitz's pose is so fantastic and perfect for him. He was a ton of fun to work on-all of them were! Sticking them all in greaser outfits was another fave part of mine here-now they can imitate Fonzy haha.
Oh yes, the cars were also, I admit, a pain to work on at times since they've got so many parts to them-things like brand icons, tire rims, tail fins, etc. But I'm glad they turned out the way they did-it made all that pain worth it! 
I think the Ford Deuce Coupé turned out the best out of all of them, but the other cars came out great too! Oh drat...Christine's gonna come after me agaaaaaain.
Yeaaaaaah Edgar better get out of Christine's way. He don't know who he's messing with. <<...>>...
Once again, you're so welcome, my friend. Enjoy it well!
And thank you for all you've done for me. I really am grateful to you, man. ^^

Aw shucks, thank you sweetheart! I really appreciate this! 
You know, I'm beginning to notice a common thread between you and the '50s... And I approve! I like the music, Hollywood stars, and fashion from that time! Anyways, what an amazing crossover this is! I loled at Blitz's pose. That's about right. 
Oh, the link you wanted to post to the other pic didn't show up for some reason.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww...
But in all seriousness, you're so welcome, Nic. I'm really happy you dig this piece.
Yes, indeed, the '50s were a great time for the music, Hollywood stars and fashion and a few other tidbits! I mean, it's not perfect, since nothing truly is, but I really dig the '50s for the good things that came out of it and I hope to bring some of those good things back with my illustrations and writings and such.
Hahahahahah I knew that Blitz's pose would be fantastic for him with the way he holds himself. He'd so show off his muscles no matter what costume he's wearing. XD
Ohohohohohoho yes; these four guys would definitely have interesting and/or hilarious conversations and interactions. I can imagine them getting into all sorts of situations with at least one or two of them being the straight men to the other guys. This might have to go up on that Tumblr blog I mentioned about the characters living under one roof haha.
Yeaaaaah Christine is one car they'd better steer clear of because she don't like anybody messing with her. <<...>>...
But yes, the cars did indeed come from different sources; I thought it'd be equally fun to include in cars from the '50s (with the Ford car being the exception), to add onto the ambience of Mel's Diner. Oh, man, the lights were a pain to take on because it's like you need to get the lighting right with the lights and how it touches everything. But I'm glad it paid off so thank you!
And thankies for pointing out the problem to the link! It should be fixed now.
Once again, I'm happy you love this piece. Enjoy it well and rock on with your awesome self, my friend! And thank you for all you've done for me. I'll be forever grateful to you. ^^

I think you've succeeded there in bringing that retro aspect into your artwork. Also, to me that's best way to view past decades. There were great things about them, and some less then stellar things. Like I love the 20s, but I sure as heck wouldn't wanna live back then.
That's our Blitz.
Ty would probably have to be straight man a lot of the time. I think it'd be a good fit for your Tumblr.
Well, it was a good choice to include them in there! Yeah, figuring out how lighting should work is definitely tough. My hat's off to you for being willing to tackle it.
Anytime! I believe I will. Thank you again! I'm always glad to be of help to someone!

Oh yes, the 20s were pretty spectacular in their own way, I agree, but I don't think I wanna live back then either. There were quite some messy things there ><;
YESH. That is our Blitzy at his...perfection.
Yeaaaaah true, Ty would have to act as the Team Dad a lot of the time and keeping a majority of the gang in check. And when he's acting out of line, somebody else will have to pull him out of the fire lol. I can't wait to get that Tumblr blog up and put all sorts of kooky stuff up.
Heh heh, well, I did the best I could with lighting. I hope to improve as time goes by.
Anytime, buddy!
