Hello my name is Blake Andrew Roten, also known by my DreamKeeper Fursona: Husky Lemur. I'm a Diverse Artist, Cartoonist, occasional animator, Colorist/Painter, Illustrator, and Furry Artist with Autism, I love drawing a lot, that's why my initial full name is BAR, and I love exploring the Anatomies of Cartooning that has been used for 2D animated TV shows, 3D animated Movies, Video Games, and Comics for so many years, especially WebComics, so I draw original art of my original characters living their lives to the fullest for fun like all the time, and I draw fan art of my favorites like all the time just to explore the wonders of Anatomies, I even draw Experimental Comics and a Journal Comic of my personal life occasionally, and sometimes I even like to draw my original characters With my Family and Friends in my choices of anatomy in my illustrations whenever I can't think of any Fan Art crossovers to draw, and sometimes my family and friends ask me to add some of my original characters and fan art in their pictures too. I'm just a regular guy who just wants to share my artwork and make friends with people who love to draw whatever they love to do best, cause as for me, I just love to draw for fun. I hope you like the cartoon artwork and art blogs I do here including some reblogs I do occasionally?
BAR’s PS5 screenshots 5-27-2026: These are the PS5 Screenshots of the two PlayStation Games I’m currently playing on my PS5 "The PS4 Game: Gravity Rush 2 on my PS5, and the PS5 version of Kena 1 on my PS5 since there’s a Kena Sequel coming this year sometime either the 3rd Quarter Month: September, or sometime around the 4th Quarter months: October, November, or December of course". Some of my favorite PS5 in game-pics are Kena doing a Peace Sign with her Rot companion on her right shoulder, and Kat in that cute and sexy Black Cat Spy Costume of course. I hope you folks like these of course.
BAR’s NS2 Screenshots 5-27-2026: These are my top 10 in game-pics of the DK game I’m playing nowadays on my Nintendo Switch 2 "Donkey Kong: Bananza". Although I wish that Tumblr would allow us Tumblr users to put 20 pictures in compilation posts one of these days as Instagram started allowing Instagram users to make their 20 pictures in compilation posts nowadays of course, I’m content with the difference. Anyway, some of my favorite NS2 pictures I ever captured in DK: Bananza are "DK mountain climbing in watercolor filter, DK and Kid-Pauline whistling in Oil Painting filter, DK rock slab surfing, and that crystal painted 3-pair banana sculpture I made in the DK Artist mode of DK: Bananza". And I hope you folks on Tumblr like these of course.
BAR’s Character Fan Art + J&D style-ElfSona self portrait: This is the most recent works I’ve ever done throughout May 2026 so far. This is Astro Bot in the Murder Drones style, Axe Cop in the Asterix style, Roninverse-Mikey a.k.a. The Last Ronin in the Sly PS2 Era style a.k.a Dev Madan style, and my ElfSona self portrait drawn in my favorite default art style identity for Human OCs in my OC Art "The Jak & Daxter style". I had so much fun drawing my character art, yeah I know I haven’t drawn any Fan Art-Illustrations with characters in fully narrative contextual places in awhile lately. But I hope you folks like what I’ve drawn this year of course.
Gallic Mario: this is my Fan Costume Design of what Mario would look like in an Asterix costume if that were fan modified into Mario’s costume collection in Super Mario Odyssey. And honestly Mario does look good in that Asterix costume fan design I drew him wearing of course. Especially considering that he and Asterix are of the similar short cartoon character-height of course, and the facts that the Italians were historically Romans just as how the French were historically Gauls, and Gallic Roman being the historic equivalent for French Italian, and that is why I chose to name my Asterix styled costume for Mario "Gallic Mario". I hope you folks like my Asterix costumed Mario fan design-full color sketch of course.
Bananza Era-DK - Xerox-Mirage Style: This my experimental Character Illustration of what Bananza Era-Donkey Kong would look like if I reimagined the Cover Art Style of the Super Mario Striker box art covers drawn in the hybrid stylization of the Disney Xerox era’s pencil shaded transparencies mixed with the Mirage Era-Ninja Turtles’ DuoShade inked hatching and crosshatching style mashed altogether. The first picture is the full color edition, the second picture is the mono gray filtered edition, and the third picture is the Xerox-Mirage hybrid edition where I used my new watercolor graphite pencils for Xerox style-pencil transparent shading and my Micron black Ink Pens for the Mirage style-stippling, hatching, and crosshatching Ink Shading. And as for the bold inked character outlines, I used a Japanese brand of Ink Brush Pens to capture the look. This is one of my proudest visual Xerox-Mirage style experiments I’ve ever worked on since the time I drew my Xerox-Mirage styled illustration of Adult-Farmworld Finn from the Fionna and Cake adult animated tv show where he used his one swear quote "You’re a damn fool!" Like a badass cinematic quote reminiscent of George Taylor’s "Damn Dirty Ape" cinematic swear from the first TPOTA movie, I tell ya folks what. Also I hope you folks like this one just as much as I do since I’ve actually been a longtime DK Fan since the DK Mania Years of the Donkey Kong Country VG trilogy and it’s Musical CGI Animated TV Adaptation, DK64, and Diddy Kong Racing etc during RareWare’s Nintendo Exclusivity Golden Years anyway of course.
Mario as Pomni: This is my cosplay fan art full color sketch of what Mario would look like, cosplaying as Pomni from The Amazing Digital Circus. I apparently forgot to post this one the day I finished drawing it, since I’m very absent minded as my mind moves on to other things I get interested in of course, like how Jack Fenton from Danny Phantom once said to his wife "Maddie" in that Ghost Warden episode "Prisoners of love (that’s the name of that Ghost Warden episode from DP Season 1 back then, right?)" how she knows he’ll make mistakes and how she knows he’ll forget thing, but if there’s one thing he does know is how much he loves her. Sorry I got carried away on reminiscing about that Nickelodeon Superhero Animated TV Show I miss so much. Anyway I had fun drawing Mario cosplaying as Pomni which I thought he’d look funny and adorable dressed up like her, and I hope you folks like it of course.
BAR’s Fan Sketches 4-5-2026: Okay so I’ve done like four Fan Art character sketches and fan designs of my favorite characters in various styles for fun. So in the 1st pic, I drew Rayman as the AI Ringmaster "Caine" and Globox as the AI soap bubble generically called "Bubble" altogether in the TADC style. In the 2nd pic I drew Ray Plumber from the Nintendo Versions of Rayman Legends in the Paper Mario style while using the his idle pose from Classic Rayman 1 to go with that look, and I also looked to Rabbid Mario from the M+R games as another one of my inspirations to make sure Rayman’s classic simplified hairstyle from the mid to late 1990s stuck out well while keeping the Mario-Brunette hair color on the limbless heroic adventurer of course. In the 3rd pic is of Pandora’s Actor in his Cat Form from the Overlord Slice of Life Comedy Chibi Anime "Ple Ple Pleiades" drawn in the Chuck Jones style inspired by both the Chuck Jones Era-Tom & Jerry cartoons and ol' CJ’s Animated Parisian Cat Film "Gay Purée" to go with Cat Form-Pandora’s Actor’s looks for fun of course. The final 4th pic is a head sketch of Legoshi from the Beastars Furry Manga & Anime series drawn in the Don Bluth style for fun too. I hope you folks like the four fan art character sketches that I made this year of course.
BAR’s PS5 Screenshots 3-14-2026: These are some recent Screenshots I captured last night as I got around to playing Clair Obscur Expedition 33 after I had beaten FF7: Rebirth and Ghost of Yotāi, although I did not bother capturing screenshots of that game, I did capture screenshots of FF7: Rebirth at least. I have been having a blast with the AAA-Quality Turn Based RPG modern classic "Clair Obscur Expedition 33", and I have just transitioned into the Verso-Story Act of this game’s story as I am already experiencing the game’s resonating emotional story of love, loss, sacrifice, and moving forward, and man that game’s story has been hitting me real hard last night, I’m learning more about the Titular 33rd Expedition’s story, what the Main Heroes of Clair Obscur have been going through. I wish this game would get its own Film Adaptation one of these days so that my maternal extended family and I could watch a film adaptation of Clair Obscur together someday, cause’ my god this game’s story is emotionally incredible, and I hope you folks like these PS5 Screenshots of this game I captured on my PS5 this year of course.
Final Fantasy Ninja Turtles: This is my Final Fantasy influenced TMNT fan art illustration of what the Ninja Turtles would look like dressed up as some of the four best Final Fantasy Heroes out of the 16 mainline Multiversal Final Fantasy games over the years, here I drew Raphael as the FF16 Hero "Clive Rosfield", Leonardo as the FF7 Hero "Cloud Strife", Donatello as the FF8 Hero "Squal Leonhart" (because he has a gunblade, and I know that Donnie would be the type of Science Ninja who’d love to make hybrid weapons like that too to fight evil of course), and Michelangelo as the FF10 Hero "Tidus". Designing their FF Protagonist clothes with simplified tweaks were quite the challenge for me at the time, but I hope you like how they look anyway, I also drew their eyes to be PSG styled (Panty and Stocking with GarterBelt style for short of course) while memorizing their vivid eye colors from the 2012 Era TMNT cartoon series that I still remember fondly today too. I hope you folks like what I’ve drawn two days ago as of 3-14-2026 of writing down this post’s description of course.
BAR’s Fan Design character sketches 2-25-2026: These are my Fan Design Character Sketches I realized I forgot to post on my Social Media platforms for almost a month now since I got so caught up in the many new PS5 games I’ve just gotten into since Christmas 2025 as well as some of the new NS2 games I started getting into since I got my NS2 Console as a surprise familial Valentines Gift from Uncle Kent and Aunt Laura, I just got busy playing the many Story Focused Games that I love so much. Anyway this is my Chuck Jones style fan design of Klonoa, my Scott Pilgrim style fan design of Ooo-Adult Finn, Sonic if he were a Viper-Werehog like the Viperwolves from the Avatar Film Saga’s terraform moon "Pandora", and a CarSona of myself as a 1991 model Ford Explorer to meta reflect my birth year as well as a Mario car antenna toy to reflect how I grew up with an SNES and a Classic GameBoy throughout my 1990s childhood of course, especially since rewatching the First Cars Movie on Disney+ to celebrate the underrated Pixar Franchise’s 20th anniversary had already inspired me to make a CarSona of myself thus making the Rotorten a meta allusion to my Roten family name of course, and I sought to give my CarSona a metal beard since I’ve become so familiar with how some Male Cars Characters happen to have their own Mustaches and beards, especially the metal bearded trucks. Anyway I hope folks like my fan design character sketches I’ve been making recently of course.
BAR’s NS1 milestone years 1-31-2026: These are my NS1 Milestone moments of the best moments I’ve ever had with my Original Nintendo Switch 1 itself through the six whole years since I got it on Christmas Day 2019 to the most recent games games that I’ve played all the way up to December 2025. I looked around in my Social Media Post Gallery and realized that I had forgotten to post this on some of my closest and most trusted social media platforms two weeks ago, and so here I am now posting up my best NS1 milestone memories that I forgot to post about today. I hope you folks like my best milestone experiences I’ve had with my Nintendo Switch 1 after all these years of course, especially now that Nintendo Gamers have already started transitioning to the NS2 era of the Nintendo Switch 2 itself these days, I tell ya folks what. P.S. there were other images of my 2025 calendar pictured games that I wanted to show here on Tumblr, but knowing the Compilation Post boundary differences between here on Tumblr and there on Instagram, Tumblr only seems to be conserved to just limited 10 pictures in a single compilation post "except for short videos which this one seems to be okay with for some reason" whereas Instagram nowadays has now expanded to letting me make 20 pictures compiled Instagram Posts of course. But I hope you folks on Tumblr like my NS1 Milestone Memories that I’ve made with my Nintendo Switch 1 after all these years anyway of course.
BAR’s Fan Sketches 1-21-2026: These my three recent Fan Art sketches of my favorite characters from Adventure Time and Final Fantasy VII that I’ve been drawing up recently this month, here I drew Farmworld-Adult Finn in Jak’s Jak 2 era clothes because I thought they’d look good on him due to his new stoic or Cloud Strife like archetypal personality he’s become known for these days in Fionna and Cake S1 EP5 and in Fionna and Cake S2 EP6. speaking of Cloud, I drew Cloud Strife too but in the Don Bluth style that I’m thinking of experimenting with and exploring again in my next fan art illustrations that I get myself back into making one of these days. Oh and I drew Fern cross dress-cosplaying as Huntress Wizard but based on HW’s new look from the Fionna and Cake episode "The Bear and the Rose", I drew Fern cross dressing as Huntress Wizard because I thought that his face on HW’s body was funny and weird in that one Adventure Time episode I saw years ago in the late 2010s, I can’t remember that episode’s name because the show itself had like 280+ episodes back then, but I know I’ve seen that episode where Finn and HW share another romantic kiss and Finn accidentally envisioned HW’s face with Fern’s face which I thought really was funny, and that’s why I drew Fern dressed up like HW for fun. Well I hope you folks like my Fan Sketches I made this month.
Sonic The NephilHog: This is my Hellaverse Fan Design of Sonic’s Werehog form if Sonic were a Hellaverse Character in one of Vivienne Medrano’s two Animated Indie TV Shows "Hazbin Hotel or Helluva Boss", and I had a lot of fun making this Fan Design of Sonic The Hedgehog’s Werehog form two days ago (as of 1-7-2026 of writing this post’s description/caption of course), and I hope you folks like it this year too.
BAR's PS5 Screenshots 1-7-2026: These are the PS5 Screenshots of the Final Fantasy VII Remake Trilogy's Part 2 Game "FF7: Rebirth", I got this game as a Christmas Present from my Campfield Uncle and Aunt, along with some amazing new games and Graphic Novels I currently have now, and right now "as of 1-7-2026 of writing this post's description/caption" I'm currently playing through FF7: Rebirth the FF7 Part 2 Game's story of the FF7 Remake Trilogy of getting myself reacquainted on getting to know this Remake Trilogy's reimagining of the original PS1 Era FF7's story that I finally got to play through and beat on my NS1 on October 2025 in order to help myself get to know the FF7 spinoff franchise's 3 Discs PS1 Era Original Saga that I've finally gotten to know better about after all these years since the 2000s era FF7 media titles such as the movie "FF7: Advent Children", 3rd Person Shooter spinoff game " FF7: Dirge of Cerberus", and FF7 Prequel Game "FF7: Crisis Core" (which I played both the original PSP and later the multiplatformed Remaster on my NS1 of course). I've already beaten the FF7 Part 1 Game "FF7: Remake Intergrade the PS5 definitive port" around early to mid July 2025, so now I'm playing through FF7 Part 2's story of the FF7 Remake Trilogy that currently has Part 3 in the works already. I hope you folks as well as my friends and family who follow on my social media platforms such this one like the PS5 Screenshots l've captured in FF7: Rebirth on my PS5 this year of course.
The BenderSona Family Tree: These are the four family portraits I drew for my Extended Family’s intermediate families as well as for both my Intermediate and myself in those BenderSona Family Portraits from December 1st to the 25th on December 2025, in the Roten Benders Portrait is my mom as a Korra Era-Airbender without a blue arrow on her forehead since I’ve seen some reborn Airbenders from Books 3 and 4 of the Korra Saga without Blue Arrow tattoos on their foreheads sometimes, and the only two I have made as Natural born Airbenders with Blue Arrow Tattoos are Uncle Sean of the Caster Benders and Uncle Kent of the Campfield Benders, and as for Uncle “Jaune” Fanton (I gave my Fanton Uncle who shares my Caster Uncle’s first name, Jaune Arc’s first name the RWBY 3D Anime Saga two Christmases ago to help myself distinguish my Fanton Uncle from my Caster Uncle these days of course) I made him into a 1st Gen Firebender that’s reminiscent of Wan the 1st Avatar of the Avatar Anime/The Last Airbender franchise lore who got to have his Flashback Story in Korra Book 2 of the Korra anime saga of course. Oh and uh I made my Dad and Myself into Lightningbenders because my dad with his gray-white hair and short rounded beard was an electrician since he’s retired nowadays it’s been almost a year since he retired on early March 2025 of course, the bald guy with the beard is me as a Lightingbender too since Electricity is basically my favorite element because of electrical heroes like Zeraora and the Pikachu evolution family of the Pokemon franchise, Cole McGrath from the first two Infamous Games of the PS3 era, Movie-Sonic with his electrical super speed because of the glowing static quills he has in the Sonic Film Series, and my Electric powered DreamKeeper Fursona “Husky Lemur”. My Genderfluid Younger Sibster “Mackynze” is a Waterbender, and my Older Brother “Kyle” is a Lavabender, and that’s what the rest of my Intermediate Family as the Roten Benders look like. I hope you folks like the BenderSonas of my extended family and mine, and a Happy New Year too.
Invincible VS. King Immortal + Finn Mertens as Zidane Tribal: The Invincible Fan Art illustration of Blue Suit-Invincible fighting Future/King Immortal was fun to draw in the Scott Pilgrim art style, and the Adventure Time fan art sketch I drew of Finn Mertens a.k.a Finn The Human dressed up as Zidane Tribal was fun to draw too, since I thought it would be fun to draw Finn dressing up like a fan favorite Final Fantasy protagonist that I imagined Finn could relate to of course. I got some new Family Portraits in my next FanSona Visual Style I've been experimenting with, that I currently still gotta finish up since (as of 12-22-2025 of writing this post's description) I've got about three days left to finish up my last two out of four family portraits in progress before Christmas Day 2025. I'm drawing my Maternal Extended Family Tree and my Intermediate Family and myself as our own BenderSonas like the Benderverse of the Avatar/The Last Airbender anime franchise (not to be confused with James Cameron's Avatar franchise of course). Well I hope you folks like what I've drawn this year, and I hope ya folks have a merry Christmas this year too, I tell ya folks what.
Pumba the Caracal-Bubsy Style: This is Pumba the Caracal from the YouTube Videos drawn by me in the Bubsy Style, I honestly thought it would be fun to imagine Pumba as Bubsy’s Edgelord Rival since Pumba the Caracal is known on YouTube for growling like a Motorcycle Engine and hissing like a Snake, so I gave Pumba his own unique yellow exclamation mark on his black t-shirt to look like his yellow collar he wears in most of his YouTube videos, only this time I give him a star with a skeleton face and a lightning bolt shaped like Pikachu’s lightning bolt shaped tail, and I had so much fun drawing Pumba’s eyes to look like King K. Rool’s twitchy crazy eyes that the Kremling King from the Donkey Kong Franchise has been known to have for many years now. Well I hope you folks like my Bubsy styled sketch of Pumba the Caracal anyway.
