@Knuckles-Fajita Yessss. AND season 5 started. That's 72 hours of bliss!

Perhaps. I have no money so...

Wow, those look amazing! Sure better then anything I can draw...

I have ToyBoxer (Toy Box + Boxer. Also, he is a CEO of Toy Company in age 22 years old) by Eddie.

I have CowBoxer (Cowboy + Boxer) by Billy. Yeehaw...!

I have Studioxer (Studious Boxer) by Howard. His favorite books are Social Studies, Geography, History (Especially Boxing history) and Foreign languages

Sanitation Worker Boxer!

How about a female boxer.

How about a REAL challenge? A drawing of a realistic looking, female, non-chibi, non-boxer character?
I'm kinda tired of all these over-exaggeratedly muscled children that are apparently all good at boxing...

My boxers are Grown Up men in Chibi style, just like Nendoroid.
I'm not interested to draw Realistic Female characters (Even if i could), Zero Interest.
And remember, my Hype to draw Chibi Boxer Boys was based on Animal Boxing NDS.

Um... not interested actually...

You might find new drawing techniques by going out of your confort zone.

Even Michaelangelo went through that problem.

@Yosheel
Actually, i did ever drawn Realistic size fictional characters 10 years ago (I still kept my hand drawings) until i was Hyped with MySims Wii / NDS + Animal Boxing NDS, i changed Drastically my drawing style from Realistic style to Chibi Cartoonish style.
I was Bored with Realistic style.
And beside, as i work as Drawing teacher for Primary school, i can teach my students with simple Chibi boy / girl as the easiest approach for them to practice drawing humans.

I meant drawing a female boxer.

@Anti-Matter Well, the least you can do, if you're also teaching that to children, is to make different-shaped figures, such as non-muscled, slightly overweight, skinny and so on, you know, like there also are in real life? And let's also show something else instead of just boxers.

If you teach kids that drawing humans is all about weird body proportions, and being extremely muscular and sporty, then I'd say you're teaching them the wrong thing, because it will influence their image of the world, and if they themselves might not be able to fit that description, for example because they are overweight, or can't do sports for some other reason, then it might even affect their self-esteem, making them feel inferior.

Variety is the spice of life, my friend. So, even if you stay in Chibi-mode, at least try and make something else from time to time, instead of just half-naked Thai boxers. Some of us actually like girls...

I'm almost sure the boxers are things he draws for his own, uh, pleasure in his free time. I doubt he teaches kids to draw exclusively half naked buff men.

Right...?

@ReaderRagfish No offense taken.

There's actually a very funny sketch about a kid drawing stick figures, but unfortunately it's from a Dutch comedian...

@Anti-Matter The buff chibi boxers just remind @ThanosReXXX of that time he got forced to play Cho Aniki in VR.
@ReaderRagfish And never use erasers because it could be interpreted that only by removing flaws can we be perfect. And don't use smiley faces, because it's ok to be sad.

That means you know it by heart, right?

@Yosheel I would most certainly hope it isn't, otherwise we'd be hitting entirely new levels of wrong...

I'm CowBoxer!

@HobbitGamer Mjeh.... kinda. But it's a bit too long to describe, and you'd also have to see the guy performing it, since his hysterical, schizophrenic act really adds to the atmosphere of it.

I've actually spent the last hour trying to find that specific part of his show on YouTube, but I only found Dutch versions without subs, and the CC doesn't work because he talks so hysterically, that YouTube even mangles his words in the native language, let alone putting the captions in English.

I did find out that he also did a show in London, but unfortunately, the stick figure skit wasn't a part of it.

I might get back to you about it, and give you a transcript of it in English, but after having plowed through dozens of videos, I think I'm going to take a break for now.

EDIT:

Never played that, luckily. No... it's more that, being a straight man, I can only stomach a certain amount of images of buff, half-naked men (cartoony or not) being seared into my retina, and by now, I'm well and truly past that limit, for the next month or so...
