I have a strange association with Metal Slug.
Watched SISU recently. It's a bonkers movie about a Finnish man surviving literally and medically impossible odds trying to get his gold back from a Nazi battalion. The movie starts a bit more grounded feeling before devolving in videogame action and so I thought why not make some videogame themed SISU fan art.
Was a fun project, a bit outside of my usual wheelhouse in terms of subject and style. Pretty sure this is the first time I draw a tank that's no the Newgrounds tank.

That was one of my reference points in terms of color and shading. Also helped a lot referencing it to figure out how to render out a military vehicle/tank.
How do you get your VCR filter?
I answered this a few times now I should probably start linking it in my posts, but it's this one you can get on itch. There's only two filter options but they both look pretty authentic and will change size to match your image dimensions too which is nice. https://mattiasgustavsson.itch.io/crtview
Ooooo I've been meaning to give this movie a look, very slick art Phil!
It's a bonkers movie. The opening is slightly more grounded so at first when the improbable and impossible stuff shows up it feels a tad jarring. But as long as you go in expecting insanity it's a really fun watch.
