I know, this is just plain wacky. Allow me to explain.
Basically, a discussion came up on the Something Awful forums about character design, including the theory that a really good design and colour scheme could be broken down into incredibly simple elements, and still be identifiable in the context of related elements. The original example was this.
This led to an explosion of people trying it out on their favourite characters, some with more success than others (Futurama worked a lot better than, say, Doctor Who - but Star Wars was so distinct it still worked rather well). Ultimately this resulted in me doing a group of my guys (and a few of Talen's characters in where appropriate).
So anyway, chances are if you follow me you're either from a certain dA club (and therefore will recognise these characters easily, because they're the only characters of mine you see much) or you won't be familiar with the characters at all (and thus will think I'm a giant nard :p). But whatever, I had fun. And I'm terribly pleased with how distinct they are, even in this form. I love the top-middle group to bits XD
