MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE MIGHTY MINI SEVEN

Way back on December 2011 I did a post as part of my 12 Days of Christmas Theme. One of these posts has become on of my best viewed pieces.

So as a Christmas Message to all, I took the original characters and made a few changes, basically cleaned up the images and re drew them again.

This Time both a themselves and with Dawg Ears.


I do hope you like the new version.

Here is the Original

THE 2011 VERSION

and here is the new versions.

Add caption

and here a version without the Dawg Ears.

I wish all of you who visit My Dawg's Blog a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.


Best Wishes Noel and His Dawg Buddy



Until Next Time    ENJOY !

ON THE 12TH DAY OF CHRISTMAS ..... 2011

Here we end my little Christmas song with a group of heroes that have featured very much over the last 12 months in my blog.

Many of these have been seen before on my site, but I have slightly updated most for this feastive outing today. Whilst OTHERS like the Wasp (WASPISH POOCH) and Iron man (IRON HOUND) are completely redone.

 These are the 1st 12 Avengers  or as I call them AVENGING HOUNDS. They are in the order they first appeared.  I decided that One DR PYM was enough, so no Giant Man (Dawg) included.

THE MUTTY AVENGING HOUNDS......... THE HOUNDED HULK, THE ANT PUP, THE WASPISH POOCH, IRON HOUND, THE MUTTY PAW, CANINE AMERICA, THE SCARLET BITCH, QUICK SLOBBER, THE HAWKEYED HOUND, THE SWORDS DAWG, HAIR-COLLIES & THE BARK PANTER 

ENJOY

ON THE 11TH DAY OF CHRISTMAS...... 2011

Last year in my Original 12 Days of Christmas, I featured a mixture of both of the doggie style  characters  I had created.... I used to use the more dog like pupz as the DC Universe Heroes..... whilst the Marvel Heroes were shown in The BUDDY DAWG style.

Included last year was a group of DC Mutts from the 30th Century, THE LEGION OF SUPER HOUNDS.... this year I have included another version of these heroes but in the BUDDY style.

THE FIRST 11 LEGIONARIES

And from last years 12 days of Christmas is my original Legion of Super Hounds

ENJOY

ON THE 10TH DAY OF CHRISTMAS......... 2011

This time last year I posted my first dawgs picture on my site.   This was my version of the now famous XMEN 141 featuring  Wolverine and Kitty Pride. This was originally done as a Christmas Card  for my friends at my local comic store...... A PLACE IN SPACE.

As this proved so popular I continued doing more  CRAZY CLASSIC COVERS.  So here is my chance to show  some of them I have already posted, once again during my 12 Days of Christmas.

As the resolution is a little bit small I have re posted them again a bit bigger below.

ENJOY

Difficult to do the dwarfs as dawgs, but hopefully it worked.

Tomorrow  back to the comic heroes.


ENJOY

ON THE 6TH DAY OF CHRISTMAS........ 2011

I have not done a lot around the Amazing Spiderman in my blog, and I originally thought for the 6th day I may do the Sinister Six, but at the last minuet I thought of The Six Armed Spidey story from the 1970's.


So here I present for the First Time The Amazing 6 Armed  Spider-pup

This has to be one of my Favourite pictures of my 12 days.    (so far !!!! )


ENJOY

More Tomorrow

ENJOY

ON THE 3RD DAY OF CHRISTMAS....... 2011

Here you have my take on the 3 Musketeers..... I thought it would make a change from my usual Marvel Comic Characters

ALL FOR ONE & ONE FOR ALL

ENJOY

ON THE 2ND DAY OF CHRISTMAS.......... 2011

Here are two Hero Hounds that first appeared back in the 1970's......... Power (MAN) Pup and Iron (FIST) Paw

Surprising these two are still around today, but minus the Afro.


Be here tomorrow for the "next" Day of Christmas

Enjoy

ON THE 1ST DAY OF CHRISTMAS......... 2011

Here we go again...... I started this Blog around this time last year with my First Day of Christmas featuring My Dawg Buddy

As it proved very popular with viewers I thought I would have another crack at making some more festive fun for all of my supporters out there.

So here we have an ALL NEW  12 DAYS featuring ALL NEW VERSIONS of MY DAWG BUDDY doing what he does best.

ENJOY

ON THE 12TH DAY ........................................

My 12 days are nearly over & done.
but hopefully you enjoyed them,
and found my doggies fun,

In the coming weeks
there will be more Dawgs for you
to see,
Some are very  good,
you can believe that of  me.

I have hounds to make you laugh,
some may bring a tear,
and I promise no more Christmas pic's
until this time next year.

So a Merry Christmas from me
and my Hounds
Stay Healthy and safe,
and don't pile on the pounds.

Happy Christmas to one and all.

Now you can sing the song all the way through.  

So I finished up with a load of Buddys.

A nice mix of Marvel & DC characters all with at Buddy twist.

Enjoy

.

On the 11th Day

Another favourite of mine from my childhood.  The Legion has sooooo many different heroes it was hard to come up with just 11.

BUT I decided to go back to the original (early) look of the Legion, when there were less characters, so choosing was a little bit easier.

One my day left

Tomorrow you can get up and sing my song all the way through.

Enjoy

Well the end is in sight.

This is a couple of Try out pictures I originally did back in January 2010. The JLA or Justice Leads Of Animals was to go with the previous JSA Justice Sniffers of Animals.

Originally both groups would have been on the satellite, a bit like the old JSA / JLI teem ups from my childhood.

However, I decided that I had 3 types of Dawgs, The Buddy style, the DC Doggies and the Comic looking ones ( some of these date back to 1970's ) did not look great mixed together. So I dropped that idea.......BUT to make things easier for the 12 Days, I decided to use these two pictures as they gave me the required number of Hounds.

Along with the JLA you get my take on the original Doom Patrol.  Predating the X people over at Marvel, this group of misfits are a much loved part of my early comic book reading life.

So after a small revamp, and with added Logos..... we get 2 groups making the 10th Day

Enjoy

ON THE 9TH DAY ..........................

I hope you are singing along at home !

 Welcome Back to the BAT -FANG FAMILY .

I tried to do the Bat - Fang in all the different styles of Bob Kane's greatest creation.  Like Robin , the Bat costume did not change very much over the years, but these days It seems to change every week.

You have my Batty take on  the 1940's 1960's 2000's  all the way up to 2010's new look too.  Also The Silver Age Bat - Pup in Black costume, and the New Modern version.    and lastly you get 2 ex- Rovers too ( I mean Robins)   with Bite Wing and Red Rover. ( well 3 really as one is now the Bat - Fang )

I am especially pleased with the Logos... I hope you like them


Enjoy

ON THE 8TH DAY------------------------------------

This is another one of my favourite 12 days Pictures

Funny It did not take too long to do.

As you will see there is a real mix of Super Pups . From the original 1930's look Supes, to modern, to 1980's Film style, to 2000's Conner  and also the Maid of steel from early first appearance to crisis to re vamped modern.   The Power Pup I did months ago, and although not a "super" fitted in very well.

Yesterday I showed you my Justice Sniffers Xmas card from last year,   Well as well as doing that cover, I did another featuring Buddy.  As the Real Buddy, had recently died I thought that this not be fitting to give the owners a cartoon version of their beloved pet for Xmas. At the last minuet I decided to take a risk.

 I printed both covers at comic book style size, put them on backing boards and placed them in old comic bags bearing an old price label.

The final result made them look just like comics.   then on my next visit to A Place In Space ( my local comic shop) I slipped these in with some back issues I had decided to buy.  

Well I originally thought that once I reached the till, " my comics" would be spotted, but the owners wife, Alison,  added up my purchases, held my Wonder Dog number 1 # up looked at it, smiled  and sighed " Buddy the Wonder Dog "  and rang it up on the till.

I was soooo amazed that my little ruse had worked, a little bit too well maybe.   So I asked Alison to look again.  She still did not twig until I said Happy Christmas, when she realised that It was a Xmas Card.

Overall I am happy with the look, a bit more cut and paste than I usually do, but  once printed to photographic style paper, it looked good.

Well long story short...... This comic now hangs on the wall in the Shop, along with some expensive, and more collected comic books.

I will post some of my other Cover Cards in the next few weeks




Enjoy

ON THE 7TH DAY.................

These are made up of some of my very early work.... Some of the Doggies started off from drawing I did at School Back in the 1970's,    Most appeared in this format in my last years Xmas card to my local comic  shop.    Below is How the Finished item looked.

Although I liked the finished product, The overall look was too Busy I think. Too  many elements . But  I learnt a lot from doing it..

I re did some of the Dawgs for the 12 Days,  the most rework went on The Martian HoundHunter, as on his first outing looked too much like a large green rat

Enjoy
