March M.O.D.O.K. Madness 2026
(Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing)
It's the next submission featuring that Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing:
MARCH M.O.D.O.K. MADNESS!
This time doing a parody of the classic "Akira" poster by Otomo, with M.O.D.O.K. doing the classic walk toward his Kirby-Powered Mecho-Chair. This is one of those images I've had in my mind for quite some time, but it feels so familiar. I tried to do a check on The Googles and such to make sure this hasn't been done before and didn't see an example. Perhaps it has been on my mind for so long that I gave myself deja vu.
As for the Kanji for M.O.D.O.K., as I neither read or write Japanese (heck, many argue I barely read and write in my native tongue, English), I will have to put my blind faith in the Internet that the English to Kanji translator I used is correct. What could possibly go wrong? Anyhoo, I traced over the Kanji to go over the M.O.D.O.K. ala the "Akira" poster, just to be as accurate as possible and to minimize the odds of my accidentally writing some unintentional.
Visit the March M.O.D.O.K. Madness Blog early and often to see some of the other artists who also enjoy the exploits of everyone's favorite Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing and tell 'em John sent ya!

STEP ONE: Here are the very quickly scribbled digital pencils done on a 2,000px x 3,000px canvas.

STEP TWO: And here are digital inks. I didn't care for the penciled steps into the Mechano-Chair as the 1-point perspective made it look a little on the wonky side, so Ichanged it in the Inks to make them a bit more rounded and curved to follow the Mechano-Chair's form.

STEP THREE: And here are the added colors, done on several layers under the Digital Inks. I debated exporting the Inks Layer as a .png and doing the colors in Rebelle, as it does a much better job with some of the paintings brushes and tools, but decided to just do it all in Clip Studio Paint. I love Clip Studio Paint's Ink brushes, and Rebelle's color and digital paints. If only they could be combined into some Frankenstein program!
Good enough to call DONE and go on the start the next one!
