The first commission I got of the Hippo Tokens, from the Yugioh card "Hippo Carnival". I've been getting back into Yugioh, during the quarantine, and these three caught my eye. I'm a sucker for samba/carnaval dancers and booty shakers.The fact that "Hippo Carnival" is kind of a signature card of the 5th Yugioh protagonist (Yuya) helped grab my attention, because their appearances in the anime gives more material as opposed to just a few pieces of card art. 

I use to go to a local Yugioh tournament, with my dad, until I started to outgrow it and noticed I wasn't doing as well. This was at the start of the 5D's era, and synchros lost my interest as well. Just getting back into it, after such a huge gap, I definitely have some pros and cons with all the different card types and rules. But, I had a blast finishing the "Legacy of the Duelist" game, I had for a while now, and discovering all the archetypes and supports I've missed.

Thanks, again, to cloudcyanide. Really glad I commissioned them, for this. It came out really cute, in their style.
