A while ago, I saw the ASCII art on CGEF, and thought it was really good. I stood up and said, "I'm going to try it." Three bottles of Mountain Dew and two days later, I was left with this."Okay." I thought. "It's not that bad." I went on to make Breakdancer Fry,"Lobstertainment" Leela,and one that I'm particularly proud of, "Kids".All of them are done by hand. I have more, but I'll post them later. What do you think? All feedback is accepted and greatly appriciated. EDIT: If they're too big, you can paste them into notepad and make them the size you want.

Breakdancer Fry, "Lobstertainment" Leela, and one that I'm particularly proud of, "Kids".

Mountain Dew is a drink composed mainly of sugar and caffiene. If I need to get something done, and need all 25 hours of the day, I drink plenty of it.

@Daniela: Some gas stations sell it here, though I haven't tried it either. (A site dedicated to get Dew to Germany, it's a Pepsi-brand as far as I know) Oh, another ASCII picture from Teenage Mutant Leela Hurdles. This episode just aired yesterday here.

@ chunks: As posted in the General Fan-art thread: Originally posted by Y_L_B: I make my ASCII art by first outlining the shapes I want to make with slashes/dashes. If it's not the size I want, I redo it. Once I'm done outlining the shapes, I decide what characters to use for each color in the picture. Like, M for a really dark color, which was mostly used for little accents in that one. After I do that, I go through each line and add in the characters I chose. I like to add lots of detail, so I go through AGAIN and add "shading". Last, I remove the guide slashes and fix all mistakes. I've never done one in color.
I takes a TON of patience and time.
EDIT: I also outline in letters/numbers/punctuation after I remove the slashes. I forgot to mention that...

Originally posted by Bushmeister: Wow that stuff is reall great YLB, especially the "Kids" one. It must take you ages to get even one of these done. Yeah! It takes anywhere from a day to a week, normally. It took me a week and a half to make the "kids" one. Originally posted by germanfryfan: Wow, really great ASCII-art Y_L_B. you can really be proud of the kids-picture!
They are so adorable! EDIT: Ah, what the heck? Yay!This one looks much better at a smaller font size. Angelfire doesn't like me and makes all of my art much bigger.

Wow, I didn't think that anyone would find this stuff that impressive! I was hesitant (sp?) to even make a thread... I was going to wait until tomorrow, but I can't help myself... It's Zoidberg, it is!

Ya like JB, eh? Try this on for size: It's Seymour!(Notice that it has my name in it. I did that with a few of them, but I think it messes it up and is a bit of a distraction. I'm just too lazy to remove it.) Also, I notice I haven't done one with just Amy: The Tye-Dye on this one took Forever...EDIT: I hate English Grammar.
