Greetings Toonsters!
Though I do something different in my art blog this time around. In this one, I shall present to you, customized templates, which is popular around the world of art, especially on Deviantart. This isn't much, but I'm sure it is perfect, just to get your point across, especially in all the world of media and expressing your fandom, like myself. Let's get started.
First off, here is the first template I have made. I made this one, a long time ago, when I was starting to watch AEW Dynamite when it moved from TNT to TBS. This was in response for Vickie Guerrero disrespecting then AEW Women's World Champion Thunder Rosa with her "EXCUSES". Here are few copies I made, but with different characters and real life people.
 |
| First off, it is our resident hardheaded bruiser and warrior of strength, Kento of Hardrock from Ronin Warriors, who gives this EXCUSING magpie a piece of his mind. Of course, I was still following my vision of a story of Kento being a pro-wrestler. Gotta start somewhere. |
 |
| Next up, we have Arnold Schwarzenegger, telling her straight up, in the way Ah-nold does it! Thank goodness she wasn't going after his cookies. |
 |
| HULK SMASH EXCUSING WOMAN!! |
 |
| For someone who is dark and evil, the Shadow Master is very calm, patient and stoic in telling Vickie Guerrero what he thinks of her EXCUSES. A girdling scream, indeed. |
 |
| Before slapping Cody Rhodes and becoming The Rock-a-Jabroni once more, I supported The Rock on many issues and this template against Vickie won't be complete without The Jabroni-beating, Pie-eating, Trailblazing, Eyebrow-raising, Strong than Steel, Takes no guff from anyone, man, woman or beast, People's Champ. Though I am a part of the Nightmare Club now, back then, when it comes to putting Vickie in her place, I was a proud member of Team Bring It. Consider it BROUGHT! |
Next up, this template was inspired by a Deviantart user named WOLFBLADE111. This one is devoted to brothers in arms. Even though the boxes cover them up, Megaman X and Zero are prime examples of being brothers in arms. Here are a couple of them to show.
 |
| This one features Ryo of the Wildfire from Yoroiden Samurai Troopers (Ronin Warriors) and Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon. It is no secret that paired these two up, not only because I picture them as shon-di (brothers), but they are drawn together by one person, Usagi Tsukino herself. Ryo with his sibling relationship with Usagi while Mamoru has a strong, passionate love for her that transcends centuries, dating back to their predecessors, Prince Endymion and Princess Serenity, during the times of the Silver Millennium. Like I said, every Lone Ranger needs a Tonto, every Green Hornet needs a Kato, every Batman needs a Robin, and in Mamoru's case, he's got Ryo. They are the human equivalent to Megaman X and Zero, and that's saying something. |
 |
| Next template in play in this Brothers in Arms series is the one idea that I had since 2016, when New Japan Pro-Wrestling coverage was in its infancy on AXStv. Here we have Kento of Hardrock (Kongou no Shu) from Yoroiden Samurai Troopers (Ronin Warriors) and "Dynamite" Bass Armstrong from the Dead or Alive series. Let me refresh your memories, in case you asked. Since 2016, I thought of an idea or Rei-Fuan Kento being a professional wrestler, especially being one in NJPW, just to follow in the footsteps of the likes of other wrestlers, such as Shinsuke Nakamura and Jushin "Thunder" Liger. And to be one, he needed a support system, and no one fits the bill of training him to be a pro-wrestler than Bass Armstrong himself, the Miyagi to Kento's Daniel-san. Bass would training him real hard, not just in the New Japan Dojo, but also everywhere around the world, even in Kento's neck of the woods in Chinatown in Yokohama. Not only having a student/teacher relationship, but also being partners and as the title states, brothers in arms, especially in the wrestling ring. If Kento and Bass were a tag team, their double team finisher would be same one as the legendary Road Warriors/Legion of Doom, the Doomsday Device. And for their victory celebration, in and out of the ring, as Bass drinks beer, Stone Cold-style, Kento drinks lots and lots of Cream Soda. Jackie Chan be proud!! |
And as an added bonus, here is one more, using the template made by WOLFBLADE111 himself.
 |
| This one makes a whole lot of sense, since this one features my favorite pairings of all fiction, Kasumi from the Dead or Alive series and Ryo Sanada from Yoroiden Samurai Troopers (Ronin Warriors). Star-crossed lovers like Romeo and Juliet, coming from two different worlds, Ryo and Kasumi started off as friends, the former being a bit more open to her life towards the latter, getting to know his life, not just from outside her village at Mt. Miyama, but also in the big city, where he introduces her to his friends. And then, down the road, Kasumi starts growing strong feelings towards Ryo. Initially wanting to be away from him due to the fact that she is a runaway shinobi and anyone closes to her will be targeted, too, Kasumi eventually overcame her insecurities and to be with her beloved samurai prince. Their relationship will be as strong as that of Usagi Tsukino and Mamoru Chiba, and it will take more than the old Shinobi code to break this loving couple, that's for sure. Like I said, like a certain kunoichi once said, "Abandon the old ways, and embrace the new.", and it couldn't be more true with these two lovebirds. |
And there you have it. If want to use my template and/or WOLFBLADE111's, feel free to do so. Hopefully, there will be more of them in the future. With the power of templates, we will make a difference and continue to resist modern attitudes, so we can fix them with a healthy does of nostalgia and true justice. Until next time, stay frosty.
Saraba da (Farewell), for now!
