COMMUNI-DAY: THE MIGHTY BECKERS COLOR OUR LIFE (AND ALSO A ROBOT)

April’s Communi-day is coming your way! Jam-packed with doodles, full-blown illustrations and super sweet crossovers, we even have a colorful surprise waiting for you at the very end! 

So rev up those art engines and join us on this joy ride through the cream of the Mighty Community fan art crop for the month of April… 

 Just like Janimator’s awesome No. 2, we are on our feet and raring to go! 

Starting off as a simple bait-and-switch gag for Mighty No. 7, the Apple Numbers seem to have taken on a life of their own! The following juicy pieces make their rise to fruity fame clear as day!

...than the sword! So the saying goes, and looking at Mighty No. 7689’s very own sweet Mighty No. robot design (and others' designs here too) I am a believer! (a Beck-liever? Nevermind…) …

Complete with Concept and Process in GIF form!

Here’s an excerpt from the awesome Easter Art thread some talented Beckers (Hey, Mighty No. 30565 Lienn!) started up on the forums! 

Of course, let’s not forget our main man Beck! The Mighty Community sure didn’t; in fact, they brought him to life in a variety of different flavors! 

First, how about some more realistic renderings?

Nice, huh? Now how about some more cartoony incarnations?

Thanks as always to the Mighty Community for these awesome works of art! Alrighty guys, that’s all for this ti--oh, what’s this?

Mighties, we interrupt this update to bring you a special report. We have a surprise guest here with some news, and he needs your help! I’ll let him explain: 

Koji Imaeda: Hi again, everyone! Director Koji Imaeda here. We’re so grateful to all of you who submitted your ideas and opinions for the stage start phrase campaign and survey!  

I’m here to announce the winning phrase that will go on to adorn the beginning of each stage, as decided by the Beckers’ votes! Drum roll, please… 

Coming in in 3rd place is Inafune-san’s personal favorite, in at a respectable 17.23% of the vote:  Xels Transferring… Initiated!

Next, racking up 26.66% of the vote:  Target Detected… Engage!

And so, the winner of the Stage Start Phrase contest, by a landslide of 56.11%, is:  

Koji Imaeda: We’re so grateful to everyone that participated! Thank you so much! We hope you get pumped every time this phrase appears on the screen! 

In that vein, I figured I’d strike while the iron’s hot and segue immediately into the next call for entries! 

Our next Backer campaign is… Support Character Naming & Coloring!! I ask you to please consider the following materials: 

This spunky little guy needs both a color scheme, AND a name! In short, he needs YOU, Mighty Beckers! Now the entry submission portion of this survey can only happen in the Mighty Labs section of the exclusive Mighty No. 9 forum, so head on over there for more details, guidelines, character explanations, template to color and the chance to show us what you got! 

So how do you guys feel about the winning phrase? Excited to get started on your support character ideas? So are we, but hey, feel free to let us know just HOW EXCITED YOU ARE down here in the comments, on twitter, or our official Facebook page!
