The Turtles stepped into too much ooze and got 100% more badass in Allen Geneta's fan-art. Compared to these, their crazy mutant nemesis Slash looks like a nice guy.

After taking out all the gods in the pantheon, Kratos goes up against some really wild first gen Pokémon in Tuna-Art's fan-piece. Charizard's flamethrower might be too much for him.

The legendary Pokémon Rayquaza is about to crash into a group of flying-types. DeviantART artist Arvalis made a really good job on this. Those tiny animated parts make this version of the serpentine beast totally badass.

I'd trade my Squirtle for these. Artist Juan Arrabal "Dragolisco" Hernández has some really cool re-imagined Pokémon.

When not busy with Heroes of the Storm, artist Luke Mancini draws wild fan-art, like this cartoony one with Super Mario, Peach, and Yoshi, who transformed into a beast.

The moon from Majora's Mask looks a lot scarier on Vincent Bisschop's artwork from deviantART. It's definitely up there with the one from the upcoming Hyrule Warriors.

The fanny pack on Ganondorf, the tagged wall and all the little details make this 80s Zelda art by Yaguete perfect. Even the boots have some small references to the games.
