InfluenceMapForFun — Description
I was going to fill this long ago....
As the title says, its filled with stuff that has influenced my art over the years.

(From left to right, row by row...)

1. Super Mario Bros:
Mario games are made of win, originality and fun! I have played Mario games as long as I can remember, so it has naturally influenced my art A LOT.

2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
Ninjas, mutants, robots, aliens, girl in yellow jumpsuit... Need to say more?
Was big fan of the first cartoons and comics as kid... Still are!

3. Biker Mice From Mars:
Macho Martian Mice on bikes fighting evil fat fish-like Plutonians in Chicago city! My favorite cartoon ever!
I especially loved the humor in that show...

4. Popeye:
Who doesn't like Popeys classic cartoons?

5. One Piece:
I usually dislike Japanese "art" products, but One Piece manga in finnish somehow pleases me with no end! Maybe its because I love pirates, wacky humor and unique art style...

6. Jazz Music:
Anything Jazzy and I'm sold...

7. Team Fortress 2:
Stylized multi player shooter that doesn't take itself too seriously... With hilarious characters and humor!

8. Kim Possible:
Very few newer cartoons please me, but this one was exception... Full of humor and action! Yes please!

9. 007 James Bond:
I haven't read any books, but I have watched all the movies couple of times... Great Franchise!

10. Lord Of The Rings Saga:
Books read few times, all the movies watched MANY times... Even the cartoons are passable!
I have a whole medieval passed fantasy world thanks to this saga...

11. Star Wars Saga:
Read couple of the books, some comics and watched all the movies... actually its only Science fiction I have got to know

12. orchestra Music:
Best kind of music

13. The Legend Of Zelda:
As a Nintendork I love Zelda games almost as much as Mario games! Wind Waker, with its awesome art style, being my personal favorite...

14. Austin Powers:
Parody of super agent movies! As a super agent and parody fan, sure it influences me.

15. Moomins:
Liking Moomins in Finland should be as natural as breathing!

16. Fallou:
I'm a new fan, but it's apocalyptic atmosphere and 80's feel has already bitten me hard...

17. Red Alert:
These games have some awesome character and vechine concepts... Like paratrooper battle bears, fighting dolphins and mind controlling Russian clones to name a few...

18. Half-Life:
First person shooter with great story, characters and general atmosphere...

19. Asterix:
Easily my favorite comic of all time!

20. Lucky Luke:
Comes close behind Asterix...

21. Punch-Out:
I cant believe that sport game could be this fun!
Funny characters, cartoony graphics and Nintendohard game play is all good!

22. Resident Evil 4:
Awesome action passed horror game! I cant count how many monster I designed while thinking this game...

23. Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura:
Flawed gem from makers of Fallout...
As the name says, its Steampunk guns and machines versus magic spells and artifacts!

24. TimeSplitters:
Fun first person shooter franchise backed with parodies and wacky characters!

25: Earthworm Jim:
I have played very little of these games, but I adore the cartoon adaption!

26: Walt Disney Pictures:
Every single cartoonist owe this company a inspiration or two... Or more...

27: Futurama:
Hilarious and clever show!
I like this one even more than Simpsons

28: Alice In Wonderland:
This! Just this!
Look up some of my art and you know it influences me...

29: American MacGees's Alice:
Twisted horror version of wonderland is almost as awesome as the real thing!

30: Earthbound/Mother:
Wacky, silly and funny, but also sad and scary at times...
Imagination is made of Earthbound
