Artist Ashley Riot created this wonderful bit of original gaming art to donate to the Child’s Play charity dinner auction.
She says she wanted to do a piece that features strong playable heroines who debuted in a game prior to 1995.
“I tried to gather representation from every classic game with a female hero, but I’m sure some smart arse will point out someone I missed!” she writes over on Deviant Art. “I’m inclined to give a free commission to anyone who can name all 50 of them Some are really obscure!”
The completed work was created on a 24×36 bristol, with PITT pens, sakura white, and copics.
Enjoy… and get to naming.
[Thanks Riot!]

Wednesday, November 30, 2011 at 11:14 AMnice concept, poor execution.
their faces all look the same, it’s all out of proportion, characters look ugly.
I’d like to see one with post-1995 women characters, that’s when all the good ones were made. (due to the birth of the polygon for breasts & the series of advanced breasts physics thereafter.)
Also, it bothers me that some of the characters in this piece are depicted as the post-1995 versions. (i.e. samus’s green visor)
