MARS ATTACKS! MM/F, underarms

[Low_Roads]

Remember the infamous 1962 Topps-produced "Mars Attacks!" bubble gum cards? The set never included any hint of tickle torture, a shocking oversight. It's well past time this error was corrected. Presented is a brand-new card for the collection, one featuring MM/F (assuming you can count the Martians as male) and underarm abuse. No gum, though. You'll have to buy that yourself.

Makes a change from mindlessly blasting mere mortals with ray guns, huh? Great idea and drawing!

 

[Low_Roads]

Thanks, chimp! A great pleasure and honor to hear from you! I've always admired your work... your ladies are incredibly sexy, and their anguished running commentary sets the tone so well!

i like it! has a cool retro feel to it, and it reminds me a little of Chris Coops art, are you a fan of his?

 

[Low_Roads]

Thank you tyklfynd! I don't know Chris Coop, but you've made me really curious. I'll do a search and see if I can find some of his art. Can you recommend a website?

PS: Just did a quick websearch and found plenty of his artwork. Beautiful stuff, very clean and uncluttered, with intense color (very vivid reds). I notice he favors demon subject matter, as you do. Thanks for the tip!

Thats freaky, but in a good way. I particularly like how you gave the picture a gradient appearance just like a real trading card. Good work.

 

[Low_Roads]

Thank you, Vlad! I have a strong affection for the originals, and own an almost complete set (never could snag the last few, and they're almost impossible to come by now). I'm sufficently up there in years to remember when the "Mars Attacks" cards were brand new. I was seven or eight at the time. Nothing else like them... incredibly, enticingly evil! A major memory from my childhood.

LOL, this is great. I like your style.

And, just 2 days after I saw this movie again... :weird:

 

[Low_Roads]

That's kind of you, Hungarian2! Thank you! I wouldn't have been surprised if Tim Burton had included a scene like this. We can only hope for a sequel...

Mars Attacks

I wish they'd done that to Sarah Jessica Parker in the movie, instead of that stupid switching-heads-with-the-dog thing... 😎

 

[Low_Roads]

Me too, sirjasper! :laughing: Glad you like it! What we really need is a full-fledged feature-length tickle movie of some kind! Stay tuned... with Skyler on the job, it still might happen one day!
