taking another crack at an ESRGAN model designed for the DKC series

this model is trained on vintage 3D renders, with color banding applied to the LR tiles. unsure which degree of banding produces the best results, or whether to train a 4x model and downscale the SR photos

Fun fact, the first DKC actually had a totally different title screen in the japanese version. It's way better than the international one tbh

I wanted to ask Nadine van der Velde a few questions about DKC (cartoon), but when I found her social media, I found her fighting for a human rights issue ... I was embarrassed to want to take her time for something she wrote 20 years ago about monkeys

Yes, I know, it sounded very corny.

I remind you that this Candy design was made by mixing Candy from (1), Candy from TV show, Candy from and Candy from (GBA).

Here's a reminder that not all region's catalogs are the same!

In addition to , Japanese subscribers get early 90's Super Famicom/SNES RPG & Famicom/NES action game Gun-Dec (aka Vice: Project Doom).

Will Japan ever get The Immortal?? https://t.co/ALxJqDJDyK

Similar vibe with King K. Rools trophy. Except for the Armor Plate, especially muscles and face seems like straight up coming from the old model for DKC. Maybe Rare provided their old promotional models?

If Dixie's by herself, I'd use the render on the left from DKC2. Shows of her hair powers and I actually find the pose more representative of her personality than the existing spirit from Tropical Freeze.

If Kiddy's a part of Dixie's moveset, I'd use the render on the right.

I found this watercolor piece from 2006! Actually, someone on Tumblr did!

Actually kinda torn on DKC 1 vs 2. 2 Improves on 1 in almost every way, but there's a certain simplicity to 1 that I really love. Just depends on my mood.

And yes, I've heard the comparisons with SMRPG and DKC

One thing you'll notice in those games is how smaller the palette is for them, so they look super detailed without looking antia-aliased

As well as the lack of outlines that make them blend better with the background (2/3)

Patreon request! This is Konundrum, my glitchy Klaptrap based on a real DKC glitch. Except more what she'd look like in our world!

If we dont count smash bros (since its more of a crossover than anything), DKC is easily my favorite nintendo franchise. And most of my favorite nintendo characters are rareware creations. (really wish they could bring back kiddy and maybe age him up a bit...)

She's reading about how you can get all 75 Kremkoins from the first level.

Part 1 of an art trade with the fabulous , who wanted to see Dry King K. Rool. Had lots of fun with this, despite the initial struggle with a pose!

Big news! So, I will attempt yet AGAIN to draw almost every DKC character, including Kongs + Kremlings + Tikis. First batch includes King K. Rool and Kritter. More info in the replies because screw the Twitter characters limit! (1/3)
