Anthonydemaio requested that his character and his son meet Nes, with the boy getting a picture taken with Nes. I imagined this taking place at some outdoor tournament or even a county fair, with Nes being a “local celebrity” for them to meet. I intentionally did some things to replicate the style of the Little Runt comic, like adding the paper texture. And well, the rest is history! :3
WIPs showing the sketch process, the coloring process, and the full-res art (3x bigger!) are available on my Patreon!
