Acedera's work includes illustrating books for Harper Collins and design work for Disney and Sony. Her bio also states she makes t-shirts for her guinea pig, Tobi. We wonder if she puts little pants on Tobi and dyes him so he looks like the little Blanka in the picture ...

I have nearly a dozen guinea pigs. Think she'll make shirts for 'em?

Did we just kill their server? I'm getting network timeout issues.
Courtney @ Apr 7th 2009 11:33AM
Same for me, the Joystiq biomass crushes yet another site.
Zertoss @ Apr 7th 2009 11:34AM
Yeah, the server has been given a thorough Joydiqing.
iamnotafish @ Apr 7th 2009 11:43AM
Yup - server down.

She'd be a good artist for the Fables comic. Her style fits right in actually.

Okay, I want a game in the style of Castle Crashers that involves Street Fighter kids riding around on other Street Fighter kids to try and save their adorable, but run down, village from an evil corporation bent on bulldozing it to turn it into condos.

I think I can speak for all of us when I say that so do we.

I met the Imaginism people at Comic Con a few years ago, and fell in love with their style of artwork. I've purchased a number of their art books, and loved every one of them. Glad to see them promoted on here, and hopefully they'll produce more video game themed artwork.

anyone remember virtua fighter kids on the sega saturn?
Mister Bogus (Mr. ESC) @ Apr 7th 2009 12:31PM
You mean chibi virtua fighter.That or those kids used hormones becase most of them had facial hair and one of them was an old man.
Marty @ Apr 7th 2009 12:19PM
Cutest... or most disturbing?
Dave @ Apr 7th 2009 12:39PM
Exactly, and we've already seen them as kids. Just play Super Puzzle Fighter.

AHH! KAH-WAH-EEE!

Can't click through to the site, but I believe this piece of art was in the Street Fighter tribute book: http://www.amazon.com/Street-Fighter-Tribute-UDON/dp/1897376987/ref=pd_bbs_sr_9?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1239125280&sr=8-9

I have Super Pocket Fighter for the PS2. I got it with the Alpha Anthology. Its one of the most fun games EVER to play with friends - the controls are ridiculously easy to use, but the characters keep changing their costumes. Example: one fighter turns into a nurse, who's (whose?) combo involves hitting you with a crutch, a giant needle, and a wheelchair.
And then you drop gems. God only knows why, but its hilarious in action.

Good to see 'Gief wearing some appropriate clothing - not a speedo.
Jose @ Apr 7th 2009 7:58PM
I think you killed their website.
