DKC Atlas Forum

Recently I've found myself fascinated by naked mole rats. Sure, they're ugly, but if you take the time to observe them more closely you'll find that they're really unique little critters.

Thanks, guys! I'm not sure if I'll tweet it to Rare, though, I'd rather wait til I draw a better picture.

I know, I shortened them not soon after I saved this particular rendition.

I was really annoyed that Mario, Bowser, and nearly everyone else got really cute costumes and DK just got a silly Sulley-lookalike pattern on his fur. Diddy too, I'm sure. Dude! Why doesn't DK get a cool new suit?

Oh, I absolutely adore that silly DK show. If you've known me for a while, you'd know I was a huge fangirl of it at some point. My boyfriend is involved with a group that makes funny annotations about various kinds of media, including DKC, and seeing it in that format reignited my interest in it. It...

A few years later and here I am again! I've recently been replaying the game and wanted to add my two cents. First off, the game knows what it's doing. The aesthetic is there, and it's fun and beautiful. The Kongs show tons of personality mostly by body language, and being forced to switch them out ...

Remember collecting those little banana birds for Wrinkly Kong in DKC3? Well, apparently, Epoch had the wonderful idea to create these little guys as tiny collectable figures and phone straps. While they are unaffiliated with Nintendo or Donkey Kong , the comparison was quickly made. And they're ado...

Welp, this is as close as it gets to that DK movie I've been whining about for a good few years. I'm both confused and intrigued... But I don't know more about movies other than animation and things with pirates and/or monsters, so I'm afraid I've got no idea what to think of Adam Sandler and why hi...

I agree with just about everything Jeeves said there. Especially the bit about David Wise. And really, I'm a bit confused why people are still bitter about no Kremlings? The Snowmads are, just as much, a bunch of really funny, characteristic little chaps and I think their variety in species puts the...

Not really as interesting as everything else, but in the autumn forest levels you can see cute little woodpeckers pecking at the trees. I dunno, I thought it was adorable.

I can swear I found an interesting little thing that somehow referenced Rare in one background but I can't recall what it was...

Sorry for this bump but I wanted to add my two cents! From what I've heard, the reason the characters look so different is because a different team did the character designs. I'm not entirely sure if this is true but it would make sense. DKC became cartoonier as the franchise progressed, I noticed, ...

Ooh, I saw that DKC3 piece on DA just yet! I faved it, it's beautiful. And cool that Rare tweeted it! They tweeted a Viva Piñata pic by me once as well, hehe. I haven't drawn any DK-related things in a while, but after I decided to replay DK64 I wanted to try my hand at drawing Chunky. Then it becam...

I'm all for theories and headcanons but these kind of things aren't my cup of tea. I mean, bananas are just the Trademark Favourite Food of monkeys everywhere, because of course they are.

I think it's all a coincidence.

Everything sounds better with a DKC soundfont, if I do say so myself! I absolutely love the songs you guys made here with it. ...I wish I was any good with making music at all, 'cause I'd do the Pirates of the Carribean theme with DKC2's soundfont. C'mon, don't tell me it won't be incredible.

Does this count? https://38.media.tumblr.com/f919cb77a38e48394fdd7c68e401ae0c/tumblr_n6tdk281qw1tdmh92o1_500.jpg I host a Tumblr page where I scan various bits and bobs from Dutch Disney magazines and this was one of the features in Donald Duck Weekblad that just so happened to have a bit of Diddy K...

For the longest time it used to be Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest for me, but recently Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze took its place.

Haven't been here in ages... Anyway, here's a drawing I did not too recently. It's my interpretation of what DK supposes the Big Bog Monster from the cartoon looks like. Hehe. http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2014/037/0/9/the_big_bog_monster_by_ribbedebie-d75ch7r.png Also ( spoiler for Tropical Fre...

Took a selfie today after I got the Best Thing In The Known Universe (At This Moment In Time) https://24.media.tumblr.com/59069e48aa910e5f17175671ae44729e/tumblr_n1eqnecOA21r17mboo1_500.jpg Isn't it beautiful? I know it is. 8D ...I am of course referring to the game. And yes, I'm wearing a Donkey Ko...

I saw a kids' book dubbed Angry Aztecs at an English book store on my trip to Amsterdam today. Of course, I was immediately reminded of the similarly-named DK64 level.

Aww, sorry I'm a bit late, but thanks for the birthday wishes, folks! I appreciate it. You're really cool.~

Here's a random thought for y'all; I've been playing The Sims 3 recently and it's a lot of fun. Just wanted to say that. :P I made most of the Kong family as humans, as well as some other characters from other media I like, and it's hilarious. Funky Kong is the only one with a job while Dixie and Di...

I was playing Donkey Konga not too recently and I heard the piece Sing Sing Sing (With a Swing) from Benny Goodman. I thought they had edited it to fit within a DK game, and went to look up the original... figures I was wrong! DK Jungle Swing seems strongly reminiscent of this piece, later remixes o...

I think there's been a few different card games released for the games and the TV show (and I'm still sour that most merch of the TV show never made it outside of Japan!) But yes, I do love the art work for the cards from the TV show. Later they incorporated various characters from DK64 and Donkey K...

Holy crap, I am incredibly envious! What an amazing collection. I never even knew there were so many versions of the games! I have my own collection of games, but my collection focus is mostly merchandise, haha. I actively hoard anything that has anything to do with Donkey Kong in general. It isn't ...

I continue to be amazed by your work! The most recent walk cycle looks really natural while still being DK-ish (if that makes any sense xD ) Maybe you could also have a look at how real gorillas move and try to implement that into the animations. But this is just a suggestion, do whatever you like. :3

Human versions? I actually drew most of the cast from DKC (the cartoon, at least) as humans a while ago. It's pretty old and I'm better at it now so I'll spare you guys. xD I did however finish that thing with the Banana Bird Queen. http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2013/125/a/6/the_queen_and_the_co...

The last DKC dream I remember having was that I saw a fatter K. Rool (no, really, even fatter than he already is) at some amusement park or something and I hugged him.

It was pretty cool, but also weird.

I have a little tip for his eyebrows - maybe you could look at him in the cartoon. He had some wild expressions and his eyebrows played a big role as well, they seemed to move and arc freely to convey his expressions. I can't really explain how, so have a look at this silly little GIF; http://25.med...

Hm, I thiiiink I've heard hijinx being pronounced as jinx once... so maybe it's just sorta alliteration. Or my poor English skills... probably the latter.

So frankly...! I'm not really sure. And I'm even less sure why they'd change Jungle Japes to it. Oh well.

Thank you!~ Psst- the cartoon's actually Regular Show, which is a lot of fun to watch, in my opinion at least. x3 Oh, and as for artwork, let me show y'all some detailed pic I drew yesterday, while listening to Two Worlds, the piece from Disney's Tarzan, in Dutch and Flemish. Sure some of ya hav...

Hm... I have not drawn a lot of DKC art recently. A certain cartoon has taken over my life instead. (I know, it's weird! I still love DK, though!) So here's DK and Diddy in said show's style. Can you guess which show I'm referring to? (no cheating by looking in my DA or Tumblr!!1) http://fc07.devian...

I can't believe these aren't official, because if you said they were I'd totally believe you! Weh. Gorgeous. I especially dig the most recent DK's fur. Ish so fluffy!! Also, this is just an idea, but maybe it's a cool idea if you could check out Shapeways.com . I've never used it but heard positive ...

Ugh, this is tough for me to decide! ...Ergh... Alright, gotta go with Gloomy Galleon. But it's a tie between this one and Fungi Forest. Though they're all amazingly atmospheric and are such a pleasure to listen to... I just kinda lose myself when I just hear the tracks, and it's almost like I'm at ...

Yo, happy birthday, all you people I missed! Sorry I couldn't get on early enough to wish it to you all personally. I tend to forget. Apologies. Also, when it was my birthday (December 1st) I made a Donkey Kong cake for myself with a bit of help from my mom! Thought you guys would like to see this s...

Oh my gosh you guys are awesome for remembering cartoon!Klump! ...Why'd they even change his colour in the cartoon? I'll never understand. I don't care though because he is the most adorable thing ever aaaaa. And yeah, about his colours; it's a bit vague! In the last season his colour was much darke...

I... I have no words. So beautiful. ;w; You sure you weren't working with Rare at some point? Because it looks so real.

Phyreburnz : Hee hee aww, I remember the one of them playing on an old game boy! I had Donkey Kong Land II before I had Donkey Kong Country 2 and I wondered where that render went. Your edit looks amazing, it does look very official. Nice work.~ Qyzbud : Thanks for your kind words on my K. Rool ani...

Oh my gosh this is so amazing I can't even. It looks so official already! I could never make anything like that myself, I'm sure. Props to you, good sir, and keep up the great work! Also, maybe you could try adding little patches of 'moss' (just textures like the ground) under clumps of grass/plants...

Oh, it's so awesome to read this one. Awesome work, all of you!~ The translation is really good as well, even though I can read German just fine it's easier reading it in English.

I really like the art style, any information on the artist?

The episode Watch the Skies did have DK wondering who built the temple of Inka-Dinka-Doo and they were worried about aliens taking over their island and hypnotizing them. Sounds familiar, right? I mean, that was exactly what the Tikis attempted to do in Donkey Kong Country Returns. The idea of Tiki ...

Maybe he was just crazy in DK64. My theory; K. Rool wasn't so crazy at first. A certain amount of time before the games was when he went bonkers. After getting defeated so many times and losing his freaking island, he grew more and more insane - reaching its peak in DK64. After this, he easened up a...

In Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast, there's small settlements in the jungle, beach, and snow levels. There's a shipload of little monkeys cheering you on in these games (some do this while sitting in hot springs, lazy bums), so I presume they live there. There's a city able to be seen in Donkey Konga 2 (o...

Wha-...? Are you me? No, seriously, I thought the exact same thing about the cartoon preceding the game's events. I even wrote a little angsty fan fic about it! And I also had K. Rool becoming crazy because of the Crystal Coconut losing its power. Great minds think alike, huh? :P I like your viewpoi...

Oh gosh! Alright, now I feel stupid. D'oh!

Man, I wish I had such awesome icecreams when I was younger ;_; I know a lot of pointless facts of the cartoon especially oh my gosh there's a reason I gotta fangirl-blog anyplop here's my useless facts I've learned over the years heh 1. Though most people go with saying it's two seasons because of ...

I'd say Klump but that might just be my inner fangirl speaking. Psst - go with his design from the cartoon. :B Also, whoever thought of adding this subtle feature for posts deserves a cookie. Yeah, Bluster would be interesting to see. Or maybe Captain Skurvy! From the cartoon. He's just a recoloured...

Tee hee hee, now that one made me giggle! Poor Cranky. Low-bit isn't always better!

D'aw, alright! I always try to source my things. I'd feel bad not saying who made things... Especially on my Tumblr, when I post art made by others, I always put a link back and outright specify that I didn't draw it. Heh.

And sure, once it's finished I'll post it right here.

This is so cool! I mean, even when hacked the NPCs still refer to the characters by their names. Rambi, Enguarde, and Krusha! Pfft. Rambi in a mine cart cracks me up. :lol: It does make me wonder if Krusha was to have a bigger role in the game at some point. How he's so much like Chunky in his movem...

^ Spellcheck usually doesn't see anything with numbers in it as misspelt. At least mine didn't. :P ANYWAY so this album? It's magnificent, I'll say! Amazing. I almost cried listening to Cliffside Clamber, that's how beautiful it is. Every track just oozes perfection and dedication, and I'm more than...

Whaa, how are your modelling skills so perfect. It looks exactly like him, oh my gosh. ;w; Gorgeous work.

and believe me when I say it's not a bad thing if he's too fat!... alright, I'll shut up...
