Cool work!Β Ya know I think it was Crash's INSANITY personality that drove Tawna awayΒ perhaps if he had been MORE like how he was in SKYLANDERSΒ then maybe she wouldn't have left him for Pinstripe! Β Β Β Β

What about Tawna Bandicoot tap dancing, synchronized swimming, doing gymnastics, doing circus acts, doing vaudeville acts, and doing burlesque acts? You up for that?

Confession time: I've never played ANY Crash games, and have at times even confused him for Banjo Bear. The games look fun... unless you're aiming for the Gems. Glad they fixed that in the sequel I'm told.
And to be frank, I don't think I "get" Tawna's appeal beyond basically being a fur-covered Pamela Anderson.

Yes; getting the gems in the first game was frustration. Frustrating in that you not only had to break all the boxes; you had to do it without losing a life. And it seems pointless in hindsight since the game rewards you with so many lives.
So it's like every time you die trying to get it; you need to re-enter the level by going back to the map screen. At least they didn't make you finish the level and you could leave it anytime you wanted to try again.
Well to us Tawna was just that 'sexy anthro.' I'm not sure how you feel on any of those; cause we get the same feelings with Coco too.

All Crash Bandicoot game in one big picture,every island and every boss,many places from many levels,Aku-Aku,and the HOG!!!Β
A perfect tribute to the first game!! Again you surprise me,seriously,is awesome!! No matter where I see,it makes me remember those wonderful moments,also makes me want to play it!!
Crash looks more rude,Tawna too,Cortex more wicked,and the other bosses are great! Love every detail that you've made.
Is the best Crash tribute I'd seen,I salute you!!Β Β Β Β Β Β

Tons of effort is right. And currently it's one of my more popular Tumblr pieces. (I still don't know what the big deal of people posting on Tumblr is; but apparently it does work out for some. XD)
I played all the way through Crash 1 as well on an original PSX1. So many memories of both loving and hating this game at the same time. Some of the gems were murder to collect. ;__;
Pinstripe's I'm glad came out funny; because he's one of my favorite characters. Glad he sticks out amongst the rest.
And I'm pretty keen on how people liked my rendition of Tawna; sexy but not overly sexualized. Kinda making her seem a bit more assertive looking in her expression too which is what I was going for.
The ND Crash games still rank as the top ones to me. The trilogy and CTR are among my most beloved PSX1 titles and I still play them when called for.
Thanks so much for the awesome comment. ^^ I might do the other two PLUS CTR sometime.

Well I appreciate that. :3
Yes; how many years indeed. XD I remember it being my first fandom where I made fan characters a plenty...who have since been replaced by others. God I'm so evil. XD
Although; I still had Shen Lo Ken's origins story in mind; before he came to Wumpa Island and taught Coco karate. XD
I actually managed to get 100%. And it truly can be a test of patience and sanity. Those crate bridges and cheap falls really can trip you up. ;__;
Actually I imagine by cheats you meant passwords. I never EVER used a password system for this game despite it's screwy save system. Crash 2 TOTALLY improved it.
i'm currently playing Crash 2. Man was that one a breeze compared to the first; but still fairly challenging. ;D
And you're right; there isn't. ;__; And by that I mean platformers that aren't by Nintendo. All we seem to have is Rayman and Sly Cooper...and even Sly seems to be facing extinction. Noooo..I wanna at least see the outcome of the ending of Sly 4. ;__;
I wish people would embrace colorful platformers with colorful characters again.

Lurking-Leanne In reply to shinragod [2014-11-18 23:35:25 +0000 UTC]
You still have Shen Lo Ken, right? Or has he been 'changed' XD? I remember him well! Heh, I still remember all the old stuff from 2003! Man, it was a while back now. I was a newbie online at the time, so I had come across your earlier 2001 stuff at the time too
I think you mean N.Sanity island too, Wumpa island was some new name that Radical gave to their version in the later games
I'll try and work to get 100% in the meantime, the controls feel so odd to me XD but I have sorta gotten used to it. But yeah, crate bridges.... and hard jumps, such a pain! 8O
Yeah I mean the passwords, I did use them when I was young so I can see all the stuff, but that's it. Since I was never able to beat the game as a kid XD
I wanted to play from the first game anyways, so I can get used to the controls before I move onto the much improved CB2 and onwards xD and to refresh my memory of the lore.
I'm glad we had Sly, and a smaller Ratchet game & Rayman but besides them, there is nothing else unless you have Nintendo consoles D: Sly might not even get another game, no thanks to the very low sales >.< even R&C Nexus sold more than Sly 4 apparently, which is shocking. I dont think I can believe it, actually.
Although there is a new Ratchet coming for PS4, but if that ends up being a half-assed effort then I guess Ratchet is facing the same fate as Sly... although they are both lucky to be getting movie treatment. Which I do hope will go well for the both of them. At least Rayman is doing well... my cousins love Rayman Legends I bought a few months ago. But I really crave for more 3D platforming action.

Oh yeah; ol' Shen Lo Ken is still with me. He's just been shelved for now; along with a formerly well known creation of mine: sin the Lombax. One day I'll reintroduce these guys. XD
Man!! It was SUCH a long tiem ago when you and I first came onto this site. And now look at us; being as active here and continuously improving; for the sake of improving. ^^
And yes; I think I meant N. Sanity Island also. XD I wasn't sure what to call it since it's been so long. XD
It took some getting used to; but somehow it all started to come back to me the more and more I replayed a level to get that blasted gem. Ergh...'Road to Nowhere' and 'Sunset Vista'; you were among the biggest pains In the rear. -__-
Well I may or may not have used the passwords; I don't remember. XD But I do remember legitimately beating the game. Had to swallow my frustration and get lucky enough not to miss a jump.
It may seem odd to some to play the games chronologically; but since all three games have continuity it does make sense. It's like if I wanna replay the Sly Cooper series I'd go from 1-4.
It's sad isn't it? Both Microsoft and Sony seem to care more about their adult fanbase to generate revenue for them. Nintendo's been out for years and managed to survive thanks to mascots like Mario and Pikachu.
It appears Sly has been kicked to the curb. ;__; Even for twenty dollars no one is picking up Thieves in Time. That truly makes me sad. And I'm even more saddened to find out how many Sly "fans" denounce Sanzaru for their efforts. Hmph...I LIKED sly 4. Not just cause I'm a Sly fan but because I loved the character interactions and the style. It really was beautifully done.
I do hope Ratchet's efforts on PS4 aren't half-assed. I would hate to see another loveable mascot fall victim like Sly AND Crash have. Crash's games were ultimately cancelled and the poor guy's glory days are over. Poor sly might be joining him in mascot rehab. ;__;
I DO hope the Sly and Ratchet movies do well. It might generate some interest for...at the very least...ONE more Sly game. To give us closure and a solid conclusion.
I AM glad though that the newer Rayman games are doing well. They're solid platforming titles with an awesome and influential art style. Rayman is one of the few older mascots whose resurgence was actually an improvement from his older titles.
But yes; more 3D platformers. How many different ways are they just gonna make me shoot things? -__-

Ah so they're still alive, that's good to know! didn't Shen also have a wife who was a bandicoot? (she looked similar to Tawna, from what I remember)
I know, it just pisses me off seeing all this attention for those shooting and GTA type games, and nothing at all for the 'cartoony' games. Platformers and the like are so under-advertised that so many gamers barely even take notice of them. Some people here didn't even know a Sly 4 or R&C Nexus existed, I had to introduce them to the games! Nintendo is a lot better with handling their beloved characters.... those fans are so lucky.
I actually liked Sly 4 too! Sure it wasn't perfect and 'almighty' like the older Sly games that some fans worship - and refuse to me open minded. Just like how some Naughtydog fanboys worship the old Crash games and disregard all the ones by other developers.
That kind of mindset bothers me a lot as well. I can see that Sanzaru really cared and had respect for the Sly series, but wanted to have their own take on it at the same time. Sigh, some fans are just too close-minded. It's such a shame to see the game fall so flat, it's definitely a decent game I even bought it from Australia to get it earlier in NZ (it came out there earlier than here)
So yeah, we can only hope that both movies will do well. I'll support the R&C movie all the way, and if the PS4 game looks promising, I will likely get a PS4 too (not just for that game, there's some other games I'd like for it too). But Raymen, yes, he's doing well! Legends is definitely an awesome fun game, especially with 4 players.

Oh yes I remember Sharon quite well too, because I drew her in one of our old Art Trades
Good to hear she's still around in your mind then! Heh speaking of old Crash OC's, I actually let one of my friends 'have' my old character Kris roo. He was my first CB fancharacter
Yeah Call of Duty is something nearly everyone plays and a lot of those types of players think anything like Crash, Ratchet, etc is too 'kiddy'. Such a shame some people dont bother with platformers, all because of that fact :-/
While people are allowed to like whatever games they like, I just don't find those types of games interesting at all. Dull colours, little to no humour and mostly violence. It's just so, boring and unimaginative to me. Perhaps some people would think I'm childish for liking platformers and such more than those gritty realistic games, but yeah, whatever don't care.
Things would be so much better if it were more balanced again - a good mix of both toony and realistic games! But for Sony/Microsoft gamers, there's like 9/10 realistic and 1/10 'toony/stylized' games available.
I only started to really dislike the later Crash games since Crash Tag Team Racing, Titans and Mutants (2005-2008). First, it was because they 'changed' my favourite character into a parody, but then I noticed more of the characters being changed drastically and Crunch (my fav) was completely revamped 3 times!!! Why?! It's so pointless. I also didn't like the style, story and humour of the later games. Although I admit I do find N.Gin (the zombie version of him) pretty hilarious at times, but I prefer his old ginger self.
I can't judge the gameplay though, since I never bought the games or played them. I just sat back and watched.
I used to have a hate for Radical because of those games, but I don't hate them anymore. It's pretty silly to do so now, and they were going to have another go at 'fixing' the franchise with 'Crash Landed' but Activision spoiled that chance. So yeah, I'm just a 'bit' anti-Activision now instead XD
Well I guess we might be lucky to get another Sly Cooper game if his movie gets a lot of attention - but this might only happen at all if the Ratchet movie does well too. Because if the Ratchet movie fails, then I think they might can the Sly one so yeah, Sony better do a good job advertising it! They've been so slack with promoting Ratchet & Sly for years. I think that's another reason the games have been falling in sales...
Speaking of Sly, are you going to pre-order that Sly Cooper statue from GamingHeads?
