The image on your shirt reminded me of some paintings I did for a local resteraunt. Here's the first.

[Kevin Mayle]

And here are a couple more with my daughter standing in front of them to show how big they are.

[Jaeger gal]

Your daughter is very pretty, she looks like her dad. Ya i saw you`r pic. She mean the world to you. My dad dont pay anylike to me really. He always with my younger brother.

[MissMothra]

Oh my God, dude, you rock out loud, Those paintings are FANTASTIC! *gives you a BIG hug* I have an artistic ability, but I don't even come CLOSE to that! You render me speechless, dude!

[Kevin Mayle]

Yeah she lives with me here in Florida and her mom lives in Kansas. Thanks! Sorry about your dad. My parents were only interested in my older brother. When I came along they were like, oh, another boy, been there, done that. So I didn't get any baby album or photos of me or help with college tuition etc. Oh well. It just make you be aware of how you want to treat your own kids.

Sweet! Those strips are incredible!

Yeah, Kalandril = Morey = Ridureyu

Check this out Kevin, you kight get a chuckle or two from them.
Kinniku-M.U.S.C.L.E. Wrestling!

This is what I was doing way back before I took over at the AKIA for Rid and long before we put together this forum. I haven't done an episode in a LONG time, so the first tournament isn't finished yet. Someday I'll get to it (yeah, sure...).

Anyways, glad to have you here. Most of the old guys from the email group are here somewhere. I know most of their usernames, so if you are looking for someone in particular, let me know.

[Kevin Mayle]

Thanks for the compliments on those paintings. But don't get discouraged. I have no natural ability or talent. I just put in 10s of thousands of hours of practice, and still do. But I wouldn't recomend trying to make a living at it. It's like being a fantastic guitarist. Doesn't mean you'll be a rock star. It takes knowing the right people, being in the right place at the right time, luck and the skills to take an opportunity if it ever comes along.

It just make you be aware of how you want to treat your own kids.

That's true.

My dad and mom divorced early on, and he was a major flake while we were growing up. So there is always that drive to make sure I am always there for my little monsters. I don't want them to grow up being negelcted like me and my little brother were.

Careful though, they grow too damn fast!

Have you gotten your daughter interested in M.U.S.C.L.E.s yet?

Both my kids love them, and the Kinnikuman line too, and I recently got my daughter a full set of C.U.T.I.E.s off of ebay (cost me like $10, since they don't hold any value). Gotta teach'em right!

[Kevin Mayle]

She's not interested in the toys themselves, she just likes to play with me with them. She's into drawing and painting. I wonder where she got that from? I checked out the KinnikuMUSCLE stuff a week ago. Pretty funny. You should continue it.

[Rokk]

Dude! Your stuff kicks arse. You should crank out some new stories. Maybe incorporate some of the new Ultimate Muscle characters in them. Anyway, thanks for posting all of your older stories.

[doc_moore_j]

I agree, like i said earlier, I am really impressed with your work. The fact that you can whip one of those out in a matter of minutes is even more impressive, you got a talant there my friend. If your taking requests, I would love to see a Goriki, maybe some more Sunigator (claw and other versions). No rush though . I am enjoying all the work you have put up, so keep posting, you should make a website with all of your stuff. I still can't get over how cool the Blocken Jr ones are in the first couple posts.

[Kevin Mayle]

Thanks for the praise! I really appreciate it! As for any new strips, well I'm not really a writer but I'll think about it and see if there is something I'll be interested in doing. For now I'm going to try and get some more of this old art up as I dig them out and color them. I'm also going to intersperse it with new art, bexause the old stuff kind of sucks. Right now I'll put up 3 quick posts before I head off to work. First is 3 old Buffalomen.

[Kevin Mayle]

Oops! That wasn't the right picture. Here we go, let's try this again.

[Kevin Mayle]

Next are some crappy old Sunshines.

[Kevin Mayle]

And lastly, for now, a couple more terrible Sunigators to go with the Claw.

[MissMothra]

That first image of Buffaloman, in the jacket, reminds me of the jocks you see off of the old movies like "Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club" XD

[Frobman]

Can you do Ramenman / Mongolman?

[MissMothra]

I'm waiting for a good Terryman. I'mna wait until he finds one he already made.

[Kevin Mayle]

I'm glad everyone is enjoying this junk. Let's see, so far requests for Goriki, Ramenman, Mongelman and Terryman. I will get to all of them, but right now I have a few ready that no one wants. Curry Cook, Jesse Mavia and Kamehame. I'll post a few more in a bit, because I have to go take a shower.

[Kevin Mayle]

Here are a few more no one is dying to see. Kendaman and Kinnikuman Great.

[Kevin Mayle]

And here are a couple of Manriki. Remember this is all old drawings. So they suck.

[Kevin Mayle]

Here's a few more. A couple of Ninjas with the Mountain.

[Kevin Mayle]

Here's some more. Jannu Stimboard, Planetman and Skull Bozu.

[Kevin Mayle]

And the last for tonight. Ramenman, Rikishiman and Cubeman.

[Rokk]

Good stuff! That Ramenman is sweet!
