The casino scene from Madagascar 3 but with cartoon cartoons stars, just because!
I feel like my animatic skills are getting better, though I admit this was kind of a rush job since college is starting up again. I hope to continue this crazy story someday, though.
Contenders and Rules can be found here. Next week will have no poll, just because of IRL conflicts. The next Dreamworks poll will release on 12 December 2023.
(Also feel free to add in the tags or notes whether I should still keep running the Dreamworks Tournament separate from the Illumination Tournament in the coming years)
EDIT: The conflicts have changed, so I will hold the next poll next week!
I disappear for so long that every time I post something, it's a new fixation or smth— anyways, I watched Madagascar movies and became obsessed sooo,, a doodles🤠‼️
Some concept art for Madagascar 3 has very cold/snowy areas and I would have really loved to see something like that... so I did this: Alex is terrible at dealing with the cold while Vitaly loves the snow <3
OKAY SERIOUS QUESTION— Why is there no content about them??? Man, they're like a married couple and Im forced to make my own DRAWINGS BECAUSE APPARENTLY NO ONE HAS THOUGHT IN THIS SHIP AAA
(Pd: Yes, I love Vitaly and I'm not going to hide it :])
Ever since I was a kid I thought he deserved a ringleader jacket to go with the hat and cuffs he only ever had in the promotional material and that one plush for Madagascar 3
Characters From Left to Right: Tigress from Kung fu panda, Vitaly from Madagascar 3, Morning Frost from once upon a witchlight (though he is squished in the back for scale), Shira from the ice age movies (who I force on two legs) and Diego from the ice age movies (who I also forced on two legs)
I’ve noticed a trend that in shows and movies I like or liked as a kid that if that show/movie had an anthro Tiger character there was a 100% chance said anthro tiger was my favorite character and I have no clue why 🧍♀️ I thought I would be silly to draw them together and as I started I realized that they kinda give silly dnd party so I shot them with the dnd ray (not tigress cause she’s perfect and not frost cause he’s already a dnd character 🧍♀️) and I ended up with this line up.
We have Tigress as a monk, Vitaly as a barbarian+bard multiclass, Shira as a Rouge+Fighter multiclass, Diego as a fighter, and Frost as the ONLY non-martial as his silly Sorcerer flavored to be like a mystic type deal.
The Autism demands I don’t stop drawing them until I explode so you’re gonna see a lot of them. I have no clue what their adventures will be other than indulging 6 year old me (and maybe fighting the bbeg Tony the tiger /j)
Anyways I’m gonna be so cringe yall don’t even know it.
Russian from a story set during the (slightly fictionalized in that it lasted. into the 2000s) cold war thats portrayed not only sympathetically but is one of the most positive forces in the book? HELL YES. also he's canonically bi :] and i love him so dearly
Vitaly:
He's capable of going into smaller and smaller rings (set on fire). He lost most of his hair once when he failed his trick and was set on fire. He's canonically got PTSD flashbacks and still he goes and wins against his fears and trauma out of love for his found family and desperation.
