Cartoonist Carly Monardo has taken it upon herself a challenge: take the characters from one story and redesign them to fit another story or artist’s style. Dubbed the “Whirring Blender Design Challenge” (and posted on a blog of the same title), she’s done this on several occasions… but this recent one seems like the most off-the-wall and just-plain-awesome yet.
Final Fantasy VII meets European cartoonist Gipi.
She’s done four examples, with the latest being the best yet: Barrett.
Check it out and cheer her on!

Hi, Chris! I wanted to thank you so much for this great write-up! A friend of mine emailed me the link, and it made my day! I’m happy to see you’re enjoying the ‘Blender, and very grateful that you’re telling others.
Thanks again!

I checked out the site and it’s pretty awesome- not just for the FF VII art!

Barret was the most ridiculous character in Final Fantasy. Jacked Black Man with a machine gun for an arm. Pretty Badass, but also absurd.
