Description I am so excited to finally get this on DA, after a week's worth of work!

Lots of trouble in creating it: when I started it up one day, all my colors appeared really bleached out, like someone took the Dodge tool to it. It wasn't on the ACTUAL image, but it seemed to be a program glitch. Not sure why, but anyone who has Corel Painter 11 and has solved this problem, please let me know how you did it!

I tried to make Meta look like he was trying to help Kirby up, hence the title. How did Kirby get clobbered? Was it by Meta Knight, or by Dedede? Hopefully I did a good enough job on Meta's eyes in order to get the point across.

I will admit to using tutorials for this: Meta's metal mask and shoulder armor there, Kirby's tears, the rocks and the lineart.
Lineart - [link] (Check this out too. -> [link] )
Rocks - [link]
Tears - [link]
Metal - [link]

And Meta's and Kirby's slight stylization was inspired by this. [link]
Check this guy out, he's awesome.

BUT THE SKY WAS ALL ME, BABY.

While I had lots of success, there's till some things I'm still not sure about. Mostly Dedede's castle and the aura, doesn't look all that...real to me. I really went for some realism here.

Dang, that expression on Kirby's face is pretty intense lol. I especially love the cloud and water effects you put in here.

Only problem I have is the castle and mountain it rests on are kind of simple when compared to the rest of the pic. But I dig it, nice job. <3

^^ Thank you, and I agree with you on the castle, no doubt. And I intend to touch it up.

Though Meta Knight's hand kinda bugs me. Also Kirby has arms, he looks like original smash brothers Kirby. And... I'm curious if Kirby really is wearing shoes or just has red feet. And he has hair. But this is just me being my usual self and pointing out things =3 You prolly want me to shut up now right?

I like the castle though and the darkness surrounding it, makes me think what villain is REALLY all behind this because we know Dedede doesn't have ultimate evil powers.

Ohohohohoho, lookit me, replying to a comment 8 months old~~

Kirby is wearing shoes in this one, yes. Hence the laces. Also, I totally forgot I drew hair. I looked up after reading that and was like: "O lookie thar." And I really appreciate the criticism. ^^
