Cruel and Crass
 
Hey guys, I just wanted to show everyone my new piece of fan art. It's a fairly simple sketch of a Glukkon called 'Cruel and Crass', based on the infamous piece of artwork 'Bold and Brash' by the world-renowned artist who is Squidward Tentacles. Let me know what you think!

The concept of it is cool, but MS Paint line art isn't cool.

Well, it was worth a shot.

I fixed it for you.

Literally just redo it in PS and use the pen tool, it'll look good.

Yes this speaks to me on such a deep level
Nice

Phoetux 01-27-2017 05:19 AM

I'm tempted by redoing this piece of art with watercolors.

Dear lord. I was wondering how long it would be before somebody did this!

I think I prefer this version, as well. It represents the Glukkon's inner struggle, with the murder of all those innocent Mudokons weighing heavily upon his conscience. It leaves him a shell of his former self, yet still he strives to forget the mistakes of the past. Or something like that.

Varrok 01-27-2017 07:16 AM

You should've started with this, taken the initiative.

I think that's a great idea! It would really help to strengthen the connection between this piece and the original 'Bold and Brash'.

New forum game: everyone make their own version of Bold and Brash.

Please, don't encourage them!

I understand. Under absolutely no circumstances should anybody even think about about recreating Bold and Brash/Cruel and Crass.

Don't do it.

kjjcarpenter 01-27-2017 08:05 AM

I'm honoured that you have taken my sacred recreation as your personal display picture.

a fan art will never die.

A fan art may never die, but I sure wish it would.

When a meme is dead and keeps being reused then it doesn't leave any space for fresh new forum memes.

See how can be done?

Varrok 01-27-2017 09:02 AM

Make a better meme, I dare ya!

kjjcarpenter 01-27-2017 09:07 AM

He did:



We just haven't used it yet.

EDIT: Although, you did help, Varroks.

Varrok 01-27-2017 09:33 AM

I should keep a record of memes I co-created.

Phoetux 01-27-2017 09:36 AM

I've made a mistake

edit: f i cant fix the size

Varrok 01-27-2017 09:38 AM

That's two mistakes.

kjjcarpenter 01-27-2017 09:40 AM

All I can see is the empty, lifeless soul.

So, a normal glukkon.

Wow! This definitely lives up to the legacy of the original 'Bold and Brash'!

Lord Vhazen 01-27-2017 10:18 AM

It's....perfect.
It's all here! The emotion, the unspoken suffering of the heart.... You can see the self-hatred in his eyes, and the cigar that symbolizes his self destructive means of dealing with his past. He wears a sharp suit, supported by small, false feet, and he is without arms, which symbolizes his helplessness for the life he just can't get a grip of despite his apparent professionalism! He is a glukkon, but his face resembles a mudokon, which symbolizes how in reality we are all the same on the inside, but on the outside, we wear these suits and we put on these masks to disguise ourselves and appear ready for another day of work. All the while, we are fighting invisible battles that no one else can see! Sometimes, even waking up is an act of bravery in this world... This world, this world of scrab cakes and slavery.

*Sigh* Well, someone's got to do it.

Squidward/TheManFromMudos: "I call it 'Cruel and Crass'."
Monty P. Moneybags: "More like 'Belongs in the Trash'!"

Don't take this the wrong way, it was more of a comment about the inclusion of A Fan Art, rather than the original piece.

I absolutely love this meme and here's some proof

It's an image of a pokemon squid lizard thing with its tongue out, looking over its shoulder while trying to eat a bug on the wall.

Now you can't unsee.
