Artsy Omni "Smashifies" Shovel Knight

[LiteralGrill]

Artsy Omni, famed creator of the fake Rayman leak, has released another character shown in Smash form. This time however it's no secret that the character is fake and that Artsy Omni is just showing off his skill . The video below shows him taking Shovel Knight the character from the highly successful self titled game developed and published by Yacht Club Games. Check out the brilliance of Artsy Omni by watching below! If you want to see more of Artsy Omni you can check out his Twitter and his Deviant art account.

SmashCapps wishes he had these kinds of art skills! Follow him on Twitter and link him to the best Smash fan art.

Eyyyy. I saw this earlier. Seriously feeding that craving for an Indie Smash Bros. yo.

SHOVEL KNIGHT CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!


But seriously, that guy is really good. Nintendo really should hire him!!!

 

[LIQUID12A]

It'd be really cool to see some of the big name DLC requests Smashified; characters like King K. Rool or Isaac, #smashified, would be awesome and a nice treat to their supporters.

Though I'll enjoy whatever he does. Would love to see him do Sylux though...please? (:

 

[Artsy Omni]

Thanks so much for the kind words! Especially in light of the fact that I'm a massively inconsiderate jerk. =P

First time seeing the "making of leak" video:

I forgive your inconsiderateness on account of how well you did it.

People might say we want insignificant characters but I say Sylux is a brilliant character who has the capacity to fulfill the much needed "similarly-sized rival" role for Samus that Ridley can't.

Oh come on, what possible reason would people think of you that way?

 

[Neighbor]

This is really cool

 

[Artsy Omni]

Oh come on, what possible reason would people think of you that way?

Maybe the fact that I put together an elaborate hoax as an extremely self-centered way to promote myself and my work, effectively destroying thousands of people's hopes in the process? =P

I wouldn't worry about it - just a bunch of nerds with too much time on their hands. You'll be surprised how quickly people can get over these kinds of things

 

[Trigspro789]

Even if omni did hide the fact that he made this, I honestly still wouldn't have believed it.

 

[steelxawesome]

Love these so much
Omni is just as good as the official smash artists, if not better!
Keep up the AMAZING work! I'll be waiting until the next episode

You restored hype in the game, and that is a MAJOR feat! Besides the real smash leak, you created the best leak I have ever seen!
Hype > Hopes

 

[The Derrit]

This stuff is cool. Can you imagine a Smash that's not Nintendo centric? With a character or two from every major company? My wet dream.

 

[Strider_Bond00J]

Great work with Shovel Knight, @ Artsy Omni ! He looks great!

 

[Saikyoshi]

Wait, so that's not even a 3D Render, but a PAINTING?!

?????

 

[WinterShorts]

I mean.........wow. Just....it went from a decent looking drawing all the way to an HD image.....like wow. I have yet to witness the power of the digital arts.

 

[Gene]

That's pretty amazing. Now I need to play Shovel Knight, a game I've bought 4 months ago for the Wii U and never touched it.

 

[Sgt-Sol]

It make me wonder 1 day hes gonna make a fake leak of teh real thing :/

 

[SmashShadow]

I want this to be real but I know it's not.

 

[Deleted member]

That's a great looking drawing. Nice job.

 

[Artsy Omni]

That's pretty amazing. Now I need to play Shovel Knight, a game I've bought 4 months ago for the Wii U and never touched it.

I just started playing it yesterday. It's sooooo gooooood. Dat feeling when you actually have to hit the start button to start the game.... amazing. XD

 

[Shawn Michael Slaughter]

My hope is that Nintendo sees these renders and gets ideas for DLC characters from them. That'd be awesome!

But a very nice job once again. These are entertaining to see and can't wait for more!

 

[Claire Diviner]

Take notes, Sakurai.

 

[Someguyyoulikelydontknow]

SHOVEL KNIGHT CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!


But seriously, that guy is really good. Nintendo really should hire him!!!

Right? If I were Sakurai, or a higher up for Nintendo, I would seriously suggest getting this guy on our design team after that Rayman leak.

 

[ThePenguinGamer0]

I love this artwork! I can't wait to see what @ Artsy Omni has in store next!

Such detail would go great with Freddy Fazbear!

 

[aethermaster]

You don't know how bad I want this to be real. Too bad Sakurai has such a bad taste for anything outside of Japan or things that are popular in America (see Donkey Kong)

 

[Estaphan]

@ Artsy Omni can you smashify Jesus next?

 

[Shin F.]

Fixed

Yeah, someone was making a Shovel Knight over Toon Link mod at Kitty Corp. When I first saw this render earlier at another place, I thought it was made from that.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

I am always saying "wow, I wonder who he is going to do next. I cant wait!"

I like this so very much

 

[BlazingFireOmega]

Anyone else feel that shovel knight should have been the trophy to represent the indie genre instead of commander video?

 

[Zantetsugun]

Honestly though Shovel Knight would be a really fun character.

 

[BlazingFireOmega]

Man, It's hard making a choice on which character I want to see Smashified. SO MANY GOOD OPTIONS TO THE POINT WHERE I'M LOSIN MA SALF!1!! IM GOIN CRAZY!!1

Mega Man Zero, Lloyd Irving, Sora, soo many good ones...

 

[Venus of the Desert Bloom]

Fun stuff! That's very, very good, @ Artsy Omni ! It's really amazing the amount of work that went into it. Here's to hoping that Smashified becomes an actual series! And that Isaac, Mach Rider, and Toon Zelda gets Smashified!

 

[lordvaati]

Thanks so much for the kind words! Especially in light of the fact that I'm a massively inconsiderate jerk. =P

Hey, we argue a hell of a lot, but we are all basically family here, so no worries. Besides, I questioned it because of lack of gameplay footage anyway.

On a side note, Shantae request plz.

 

[PepaCorn]

..........

 

[Enderman1021]

People just like to complain, at some point they will get over it

Also please do bandana dee

You've probably heard of Rivals of Aether before, right. I remember reading Dan Fornace say that he's like to have some indie guest characters in his game, and said that "We have some indie friends who are interested" or something along those lines. So yea, it's an indie game inspired by Smash, that may get some other indie characters to appear in it. We'll see!

 

[SFA Smiley]

Too good.

I'm so amazed at how you can just take a blank canvas and create something like this, it's incredible.

Wish I could draw, but I guess i'm just not one of those people

Nah, it's probably the hair
