A moderately famous Chinese folktale that is part of the adventures of the Monkey King. It has been adapted many times, particularly by the Japanese, who have made two anime series (Saiyuki and Dragonball Z) and one cheesy kung-fu '70s TV show (Monkey) from it. Here we see Monkey giving a ride on his special cloud to his reluctant friends--the Buddhist monk Tripitaka, water monster Sandy, and pig spirit Pigsy.
Hah! I know this is probably Old Shame for you because you made it so long ago, but I really like it, especially the coloring and some of the expressions -- particularly Pig sleeping and Sha Monk just going at the whole scene.
May I have permission to feature this on my website for a school project (Mythology final)? I will credit and not lay any claim to this picture. There will be a link leading back to this page.
Fantastic work! I love the expressions on everyones faces! They show such a range of ability and talent. Not to mention the coloring job! Very subtle shifts and color schemes. Nice.
Awsome, it would so make a tv show! (Lawlz, duh) I really like the way the pig looks. You're the only one that drew the pig badass instead of annoying and ugly!
And that's something, because i usually hate most versions of him!! 8D
Nice picture~
