O.K. for anyone that is familiar with ABC's new sitcom "Knights Of Prosperity", I made this as just a humorous picture of anime characters I think would be good in the show.

If you are not familar with the show then please read this summary from abc.com:

"The Knights of Prosperity" is a hilarious tale of haves and have nots, starring Donal Logue as the leader of a band of affable, new-age Robin Hoods who have never even shoplifted a candy bar, but now find themselves prepping for a heist to finance all of their long-held, heart-felt dreams. The target -- Rock icon Mick Jagger's super luxe Central Park West apartment. The series premieres WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 3 (9:00-9: 30 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

In the premiere episode, "Pilot," Eugene Gurkin's (Donal Logue) dreams always have exceeded his means. In fact his dead end job on the late, late janitorial shift won't even fund a bottle of premium booze. In a serendipitous moment, he catches an episode of an entertainment news show and his passion is ignited. Soon he excitedly recruits a group of "average joes" into his "gang" -- "The Knights of Prosperity" to plan the celebrity heist. The first order of business is to get a copy of the key to Jagger's apartment. And, as usual for this group of "Ocean's idiots," nothing comes easily.

Society might disregard the Knights and give them short shrift, but this group of upstarts refuses to be ignored: Beauty bombshell Esperanza Villalobos (SofĂ­a Vergara), a diner waitress in Queens, is more than just a pretty face; the only female member of the gang, she sees the celebrity heist as an opportunity to control her own fate something men have normally done for her.

Working as a janitor alongside Eugene on the overnight shift, Francis "Squatch" Squacieri (Lenny Venito) relates to Eugene's desire for more out of life than mopping up after millionaire executives. The one married Knight, his motivation is to provide a better life for his wife and children.

Back home in India, Gourishankar "Gary" Subramaniam (Maz Jobrani) was a superstar lawyer, but here in New York City he drives a cab to make ends meet. Reluctant to join the group at first, Gary has a change in heart when Eugene reminds him that, although he was a winner at home, here he chauffeurs old ladies to Broadway matinees.

Warehouse security guard Rockefeller Butts (Kevin Michael Richardson), a mountainous, cigar-chewing man, has one simple request in order to join the Knights -- cookies.

A college Communications student, ultra-nerdy Louis Plunk (Josh Grisetti) finds himself at rock bottom after being rejected for an internship by the Montel Williams show. A chance ride in Gary's taxi turns into an offer for Louis to serve an "internship" on a movie. When he discovers the truth about his golden opportunity, he still decides to stay.

Their scheme is to steal from the rich and give to the poor. Namely, themselves. What they don't realize is that there's a much richer target for them& the chance to find hope, self-esteem and self-confidence.


Anyways, The other character is Shugo from ".Hack//Legend Of The Twilight".

Enjoy!

...okay, now that I got that over with, I admit I haven't seen the sitcom
in question so it's alittle hard for me to relate the FMP chars with the chars
from the sitcom. Second, the 'shopping is noticeably slap-dash... you plan
to refine this picture any more Megaduffy?

O.K.,

1. The anime characters most likely do not match the show's characters.

2. I could if its that bad. I thought it looked good and I used the skills that I learned in Photoshop teachings.

3. You need to watch this show! It is Hilarious! :sousuke:

Noticeably, Sousuke and Kaname still have some of their original background
with them, which is going to take practice... not to mention ALOT of
patience... to clean out, plus trying to get them to blend more naturally onto
the two bodies in the background. Obvious cut / crop points does not a
good blend make.

If this is your first time using Photoshop, then that explains a few things. That's
why you may want to use this image as a startpoint to learn some of the
higher end features of PS and see how far you really can push this shot.
Best of luck in learning the program!
