Rakugaki!

[RedCometChar]

I find it patently apalling that a lot of Japanese artists just doodle up something that looks a lot better than what I could hope to draw with a year's worth of lessons and then stick it in a folder marked "junk". On that note, this particular artist not only did a small A-ko pic in his rakugaki folder, but also a whole mess of other cool one-shots, including perhaps the only Spaceballs fanart ever drawn. Give it a look-see... his regular galleries are pretty cool too.

This could be a fun game. Name all the ones you recognize.

Let's see from top:

Karate Kid.

Definitely Arnold. I'm thinking Terminator.

The next one I recognize is Spaceballs.

Dexter.

I have to say that his Kei (Original Dirty Pair) is more babe-licious than the actual Kei from the anime.

Underneath Kei is a robot that I've seen from somewhere but can't place.

Next is the greatest red-head herself.

Austin Powers.

Maetel from Galaxy Express 999.

Nuku Nuku.

Warf and I think the hologram Doctor from Voyager.

Original Star Trek.

Lime from Saber Marionette J.

Now the last one I recognize is something I'm not sure about. I'm pretty sure it's Arnold again and I want to say from Total Recall. I have definitely seen the scene the picture is depicting but I'm not 100% sure that it happened in Total Recall.

Wow, some awesome stuff. The pic between Arnie and Space Balls is the cast of Red Dwarf.
