Description ZEN 10 Yup, I dig cartoons. In fact when I first popped out of my mom's womb I immediately crawled to the nearest boob tube and surfed the channels for Scooby-Doo or The Flinstones. But that was then, and this is now...

If you've never heard of- or seen either BEN 10 or BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE, might I suggest getting cable with Cartoon Network. Here's a quick recap of the aforementioned shows: BEN 10 is about 10-yr-old Ben Tennyson and his alien watch -- the Omnitrix -- which allows him to change into different alien species with their own unique powers. BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE is the latest version of the show featuring Ben at age 15.




Zac EfroNA live-action movie of BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE will air this fall on the Cartoon Network. I dunno the actors playing the lead roles so I decided to cast my version with Zac Efron as Ben. He may be too old (he's 21, I think) but that has never stopped Hollywood from having over-aged actors play young characters. And from a marketing standpoint, it makes sense. I mean, what better way to attract teenage girls into watching a film that they otherwise wouldn't care about, right? It's brilliant, I tell ya, brilliant!

As for the roles of Gwen (Ben's cousin) and Kevin (Ben's old nemesis-turned ally), I've got some ideas but it'll be awhile before I cast them. Stay tuned.




Tech 'n' Stuff Ye olde Ai CS2 and ye olde mouse thingy were at my disposal. No magic wands or mystical spells here I'm afraid.

FYI, the outline of Zac can be seen here: CLICK ME .




BEN 10 and BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE are registered trademarks of Cartoon Network. Zac Efron is pretty and dreamy...but you didn't hear that from me.

Sheesh that's a whole lotta details.
Gotta admit I've never seen Ben 10 nor heard of it, not too keen on Zac Efron either, but hell you pulled this off awesomely!

PS: No idea who Gwen is, but yes I do indeed wanna see nekkid pics of her.

Aren't you glad I gave a brief description of that show and what channel it can be seen on?

That caption of a nekkid Gwen is an in-joke. Zac's real life gf, High School Musical co-star Vanessa Hudgens, has nude pix circulating the web. Not that I've seen 'em or anything.

Yeah, and I stand by my "opinion" of you and everything I said about you. Instead of "reading" my reply, you conveniently "see" it and, like a coward, avoid all the valid points I made. It's all there for everyone to read, and I thank you for that.

It's one thing to give a reasonable, well-thought-out opinion, it's another to disguise some bitchy rant as one. You can dislike or critique artwork however way you want -- I'm all for it -- but to make a false statement ("Ok first when i see your comment about Ben 10 you sound like it's the freaking best show in the world but to be honest Ben 10 has many flaws.") just so you could give unwanted opinions and further your bitchfest...?

I had a feeling this individual wasn't going to respond to anything I said. And while I'm on the subject of BEN 10, I wouldn't be surprised if this individual's deviant page contained artwork related to another show on Cartoon Network but not as popular or well-known as BEN 10...which explains the above "comments" this person made.

'Nuff said.

Are you sure you're 31 and not 14? Because you sound like a drama queen lol.

Bitch fest, coward? That's how a grown man suppose to act, come on at least be less grumpy and less serious, you will live longer.

I don't think you're up for criticism since here you sound like you got really offended by my opinion about the show and trying to defend it.

Are you talking to yourself as 3rd person in that last comment? lol kinda silly don't you think, you will be surprise but i do have fanart of Ben 10, like i mention before the series has his flaws but it does have his moments.

If I may add my 2 cents.

I think the actual problem here is that 90% of your comment were spent discussing the show, and only 10% discussing the above vector. Yes it's a fan art piece, however this is dA, not IMDB.

I know, i do take most of the blame here myself tho you have to admit this guy is taking it a bit too far, even making a journal about it.

Ok first when i see your comment about Ben 10 you sound like it's the freaking best show in the world but to be honest Ben 10 has many flaws.

I mean don't get me wrong, the concept was good and some of the characters where cool yet sometimes they really exaggerate on the interaction of the characters like the one of Ben and Gwen always arguing, they would've at least try to make the 2 respect each other more each episode yet they still argue and act like jerks to one another.

The plots, some had good ones yet most of them where just random and lame plots for the characters like the episodes of the last season of the first series like the road pirates? Couldn't they come up with something better???

Now with Ben 10 AF, when i first heard about it and mention that they where going for more serious and dark stories i thought finally, they are going more further on the show yet i was wrong, they remake the whole concept they had from the first series for example the relation of Gwen and Kevin, when did that happened? I don't mind if they like each other but come on, the first episode they where like gonna kiss each other out and later go to bed having sex.

Also the way they made Gwen, she looks too flat on both personality and the way she uses her powers and finally that everybody is an alien, even Kevin and Gwen! I thought the concept is to have a person turning into any alien, what would've liked is that they had different kinds of powers, Ben's alien powers, Gwen's magic powers and Kevin's mutant powers yet they screwed the whole thing.

The plots......i dare to say but even the plots they had on the first series where 10 times better, the stories are just boring and no real plot twist, they don't have something that surprise us and see what's gonna happen next.

I do admit that the new live action looks alot better than the first live action yet i have to see if it's better, can't trust on just watching the trailer, it may look good but who knows if it sucks.

I'm not a fan of Zack Efron, the only thing that made him popular was the help of Disney with the whole High School Musical crap, sorry but that's what i feel when Disney helps wannabe musician to get popular like the Jonas Brothers and Miley Cyrus.

I do admit however that the way you drew Zack Efron as Ben does fit him well, the real actor that will play Ben looks kinda odd, Zack here may pull it off more.

Anyway sorry on the big comment that i left here but just wanted to make my personal opinion on Ben 10.

You "see" my comment, but did you actually "read" my comment? I normally proofread my comments in the event that someone (such as yourself) might accidentally or purposely misinterpret them. And where did I say, "Ben 10 is the freaking best show in the world! Y'all hear me now and listen to me later... BEN 10 IS THE FREAKING BEST SHOW IN THE WORLD! If y'all don't freaking watch Ben 10, then y'all freaking douchebags!"? Answer: nowhere...'cuz I didn't say anything of that nature to suggest that in the first place.

This is what I wrote: If you've never heard of- or seen either BEN 10 or BEN 10: ALIEN FORCE, might I suggest getting cable with Cartoon Network. Since you don't know me, you obviously don't know that I tend to write comments in a sarcastic yet playful manner. When I wrote the above statement, I was doing just that: being sarcastic. I didn't assume that everyone in DA were familiar with BEN 10, so I gave an extremely brief description of the show and where it can be seen.


As the late Heath Ledger (a.k.a. The Joker) so famously said... WHY SO SERIOUS? And yeah, I'm directing this question to you.


It's clearly obvious that the purpose of your so-called comment is to rant/bitch/whine on why you dislike BEN 10. Without even asking me why I liked the show or how long I've been watching it, you went on a hissy fit on how the show has "flaws" or how you didn't like the character designs or how "lame" the plots are and other crap that I couldn't care less about.


BEN 10...IS...A...CARTOON. WHY...SO...SERIOUS?


I'm not even going to defend the virtues of the show, and y'know why? Because...


BEN 10...IS...A...CARTOON. WHY...SO...SERIOUS?


I made ZEN 10 all for fun, because I'm a fan of the BEN 10 CARTOON...which isn't Shakespeare or Rocket Science. It's just a CARTOON...nothing more, nothing less.


Seriously, may I suggest that you get off the internet, turn off your computer, take a deep breath, walk outside...and smell the real world.


Why so serious, huh? Really, why so serious?



Btw, thanks for commenting.

lol dude it's just my opinion, i didn't mean for you to take it so "serious", you would've take it just an opinion that you probably won't care.

So the hypocrite on saying why so serious is someone else XD.

Zac is yuk! but somehow you managed to make him look quite hawt lol

friki-dayz In reply to jussta [2009-08-11 18:12:39 +0000 UTC]



I don't normally comment on the "hawtness" of male celebs...uh...so I won't. But casting Zac as Ben is simply pure marketing. Leo DiCapprio helped Titanic rake in a gazillion dollars in the box office by attracting many googly-eyed teenage girls (no offense), so the formula is sound and foolproof.

Btw, still have ideas on that super secret, classified collab we had previously talked about...? I haven't been too forward about it for one main reason: I can't guarantee on determining when it would be done. Just look at the times I keep missing the deadlines on previous contests. Any suggestions...?

Dont worry about the collab, it can take quite longer, I wont mind since I'm a bit busy lately too But yeah we can at least come up with a kick ass idea and just stick to it

Thanks. I can only imagine how long it would take had I done this with gradient mesh. On the other hand, using gradient mesh would definitely give it a unique look. Maybe someday...
