Another Dinky Ninja Bear sketch, this time brought to you by Hunny K. Why? Because its good for ya’! ;D

Our sketches are usually inspired by the activities we do in real life (IRL). I love to blog. Wait. Let me repeat that. I LOVE TO BLOG! Especially on my blogsite, Edopeno.com Hunny K knows this and decided to sketch me up. So here I am, depicted in DNB Form. Kinda cool, ya? It’s like I’m a Transformer or something. What sound do they make again? *keekookookeeoo ?! Or something like that??? Who knows, but the concept sounds kewl. “Dinky Ninja Bear TRANSFORM!”

And here is a Dinky Ninja Bear depiction of our IRL dog, Ipo. We thought it looked so BadAzifug, that we decided to add it to the repertoire. So you can expect to see him in more sketches!

Overall, the Dinky Ninja Bear Clan is starting to emerge – complete w/ cast, epic backstory, and more! Be on the lookout because they’ll be hitting the DOJO soon…

As promised, here’s a quick sample of sketches I’ve been doing for the Dinky Ninja Bears. In this particular sketch, the “DNinjaB’s” are in …I’d say an ultra-attack mode. Stay tuned! The final sketch and more will be up soon!

Origins

Yatta! Drawing is sugoi! As previously mentioned, our experience at APE totally motivated the Artist w/in. Believe me, the sketches are flying. We’ll post them soon, and often! We also decided that we should utilize our newfound love for Art by giving you, our beloved readers, some of our original sketches. How? By “shipping” them to you!

Whenever we ship out our Dinky Ninja Bear plushies, we use a typical, standard 7.5″ by 10″ mailer. What’s amazing about these mailers is that there is sooo much art space just waiting to be drawn on! So thats what we’re gonna do! And the sashin above is our very first (very rough) sketch. Hope you like it!

Oh! And for anyone sending in a Self-Addressed stamp envelope for your free sticker, we’ll include a quick sketch on your envelope too!

Hope you enjoy our Artwork!
