BraveStarr

First Shoot #2 – Shuu Inuzuka

So, funny story, but the second First Shoot poll I ran ended in a three-way tie. I might could’ve run a second tie-breaker poll, but since I liked all three winners I decided to just draw each of them. Funnily enough, all three ended up with their random partners being 1 Club members, as well as straight pairings. So that’s weird, but here we are.
Shuu is the best friend of Izumi-kun in Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie. Some of my Subscribers, even those who haven’t seen the show, have taken to him due to his resemblance to Bakugou. Even though I considered him a dark horse in the poll, this interest propelled him to the top, so here he is with BraveStarr’s Judge, J.B. McBride. I drew J.B. back in 2014 as part of the WWOEC Woman of the Month feature. She was actually a character I’d nominated for that event personally, because I love Filmation cartoons and BraveStarr was an outlier many people didn’t know. J.B.’s the romantic interest of the series, and I’d originally planned to draw more of her, but just never got around to it. She makes an interesting and odd crossover for Shuu, though, and I always like when we get non-sequiter pairings like this.

October ’14 WWOTM – Judge J. B. McBride

The WWOEC Woman of the Month for October 2014 is Judge J. B. McBride from Filmation’s BraveStarr, nominated by yours truly! As usual, I wanted to contribute something to the event, despite the fact that I cannot nominate for next month.

Most people know Filmation for He-Man and She-Ra, I think (and, truth be told, I have something from the Masters of the Universe in the works as well). I really love BraveStarr, though. It has all of the things that made MOTU great (great humor, colorful characters, awkward animations and voice acting), but has a very unique space western setting to help it stand out. The judge here is a great character with her laser gavel and competence in battle. Plus, she’s a fiery redhead, and who doesn’t love that?

Here we have McBride being shared by the title character of the show, Marshal BraveStarr, and his trusty steed, Thirty/Thirty (who can change between a horse and a horse-man). They’re best friends and share everything. I plan to do at least two more pictures featuring these three, both pretty similar to this one. I can’t say when they’ll pop up, but I had to choose between three ideas I really liked and want to do them all eventually.
