Team Rocket...Power?

Or what happens when Raymundo's group costumes go too far! 

This is one of my favorites. Originally meant for Halloween, this is the Rocket Power gang dressed up as Team Rocket from Pokemon. You know, because in the show they call themselves "Team Rocket" and the villains that appear in every Pokemon episode is also named Team Rocket? Get it!?! =P

This concept was originally explored in my fanfic: Rocketmon, which you may read at your leisure. Mind, in the story, Sam isn't a member of Team Rocket--I just didn't want him to feel left out of the fun. Again, I don't own either Rocket Power or Pokemon. I just drew the concept.





Keoni and Reggie

My renditions of Keoni and Reggie, two characters from the classic Rocket Power. It goes without saying, but these characters are the property of Nickelodeon. I don't own them, never have, never will. I just love the art style.



Tux Lopez

The newest version of Tux, one of Izzy's lovable chicks.





Eduardo 2.0

My improved version of Eduardo, a happy flamingo who LOVES Izzy. And that's putting it mildly!



Updated Iggy Lopez

Here is Izzy's brother, Iggy, drawn in my newfound style. Enjoy!



New and Improved Izzy Lopez

Greetings everyone! I've created some new drawings I'm just dying to share! I've painstakingly taught myself the art style used by the studio Klasky-Csupo, creator of my absolute favorite cartoon, Rocket Power! Mind, these are just the initial scans. I will soon clean and color these.
