Description Normally, these would be in the Scraps section, but I thought they looked too good to be sent there right away; I want to give it a little bit of gallery attention. Took me about a whole school week to fill all the space, but I enjoyed it.

And again, as with other miscellany pages, I numbered certain sections so as to explain each panel better. This time around, though, I also added letters (A, B, C, D, E) to the ones that I felt didn't need much explanation. I tried my best to make the numbers visible, but there's so much stuff, I think you'd have a hard time finding anything!

(NOTE: The numbered order is NOT equivalent to the chronological order of when the panels were made, but rather the size and relevance of them.)

1) Neko-fied Oil & Time--This one, in my opinion, is probably the best one on the whole page, partly because it's the biggest and one of the most detailed panels. But I also like it because it shows some of that "brotherly love" that makes me love these two together. I had something like this in mind, so I knew pretty much exactly how it would be done, and I think it came out better than I expected. As a random note, I probably also would have gone with inu-fied (doggy) forms, but neither of them seem very dog-like, IMO, so I stuck with cats immediately.

2) Tuxedo--I love how formal and snappy it looks on him! Normally, I get bored drawing tuxes, but (possibly because it's just a bust shot) this was so much fun to draw, and I became quite entranced at the results of it.

3) Pet Pet Stroke--This probably would've come out better if Oilman didn't have such a wonky left arm (it's an OIL SHOOTER, for flip's sake) to pet Timey with. Anyways, I wanted to draw more of that brotherly love, only in more of a praising/spoiling sense. Which leads to...

4) "Spoiled Princess"--I figured that if Timeman were ever to crossdress or take the female role in a story, he'd probably be the bitchy or spoiled princess who's never satisfied with anything. And in a way, it fits him... a little bit. I mean, he never smiles, and he seems to only have one thing on his mind, interested in nothing else.

5) CHOMP--Poor Iceman. If he's not blowing up stuff, then he's continuously getting scarred for life. In this case, Timey's chewing on his hand, lured by whatever he was holding for the time being, and if Icey's not careful, he might wind up losing an arm. [This also goes partly in junction with #'s 6-9, 13, and 15.]

6) Sweet, Joyful Rain--At last, Timeman has found a new obssession! Probably the second most-detailed pic on the page, I spent quite some time inbetween, trying to think of new things to litter the panel's background with. This one was very fun to make!

7) C'mon! Smile--Sort of a lesser fave of mine, I mainly did this one to experiment with that "cheek stretching" bit commonly seen in cartoons or anime. Of course, being me, I get it totally wrong! And apparently, Oilman's not doing a good job at it, either, since Timeman's just BEGGING to be free from his brother's clutches.

8) Begging and Pleading--I think I did this one just to see Timey with puppy-dog eyes and so that I can feature Bubbleman again. I think the panel's more self-explanatory than I thought, 'cause I can't think of anything to say that doesn't sound weird.

9) Snacking in Private--Again, not a lot to say that won't make me sound like some kind of fetishist (which I may as well be XP). I love his expression for some reason; it's just not usually like him to be so surprised!

10a) Scale--This was a bit of a reference to the previous panel, as well as to the joining panel, 10b, which pretty much demonstrates the "frame weight" a little better. Ignore him, Timey; Icey's just trying to make you mad! :comfort:

10b) Basically info on my "version" of Timeman, which includes his height (which is equal to that of Cutman without his Cutter), Frame Weight (the weight of his robotic skeletal system; his holds a very complex time-manipulating system that's not heavily modified to a more portable form, so it's rather heavy), and Total Weight (both his FW and remaining weight combined). For those who can't read my faded handwriting, his stats are here:

Height: 5,3"
Frame Weight: 70 lbs.
Total Weight: 180 lbs.

11) LS Style... Sorta--Basically a headshot of my attempt of drawing in the Lucky Star artstyle. I had no reference at all, so I relied on my memory of that Konata girl from the anime to create this. It's probably a tad faded, since I didn't bother to fix it much.

12) Staring at the Sky--Rather generic, but I wanted to try this composition at the moment, so I just went with it. Unfortunately, it also shows his severe lack of a waist. XD

13) Will Work for Candy--Based on a similar sketch I drew during Spanish class that same day (yesterday), I felt that it was too adorable to pass up. Also, I wanted to show off his writing and drawing skills a little bit.

14) Gears and Clocks--I simply wanted to draw something not Timey here, and I was thinking about the background of his stage, so there came my inspiration for... this... piece of crap. I suck at gears and mechanical stuff.

15) 100 Points!--A bit of a joke that I made up ever since I started this. I kept wondering, "What's with the Score Balls that enemies keep dropping? I mean, what is their relevance to Megaman and the others that they simply have to get them?" Then I thought of them as being little chocolate balls covered in foil or encased in a round capsule. Connect with this page, and there you have it!

16) Somersault--I originally wanted a Timeman chibi doing Time Slow while upside-down, but I thought that would be kind of weird. Then I remembered how he tumbled and did somersaults in Hard Mode, and I thought, "Well, I've never drawn anyone doing such a thing, so why not?"

Haha I like your style of Timeman.

By the way, who do you think is older (or built first)? Timeman or Oilman?

Hmm... Good question. I think Timeman was built first, yet I tend to interpret Oilman as the older brother of the two.

At first I thought Timeman was "older" but later I thought "y'know, I think Oilman would act as an older brotherly figure". At least that's how I interpreted it in my fanfiction "Incomplete"

Same here. Their designs and personality might have something to do with it. Timeman's more serious, but he looks younger, and it's possible his single-mindedness can make him absent-minded or naive. Meanwhile, Oilman's younger and more reckless, but his street smarts probably make him more aware of the world around him, and thus more protective towards Time. That's one way of seeing it.

Neko + Time Man = win.

Now in more human terms, I really like this! I'm missing the pretty colors you've accustomed us to, but it's pretty cool nonetheless. The "food rain" one is my favourite behind the cute cats <3

Sorry for not putting color on this. Maybe I'll try to make a copy and/or color it from there.

And the food rain's another of my favorites, too! :3 Then again, I like quite a lot o these.

Nice. My favourite is Timeman doing a somersault, simply because of how serious he looks while upside-down. XD

Thank you! The somersault became a favorite of mine, too, as I was drawing it.
