Hey gang! I have never seen any fan-art or fiction done for Chap Mei's BEAST RAIDER range, so I thought about it & decided to give it a go!! The stories in the bios are completely my own, based on how I would handle an animated series based on the property. If this thread is a hit with the community, I'll continue to add more characters based on the BEAST RAIDERS figures as well as the other already associated lines. Thanks & I hope you enjoy the art & story!!

"MYST" is loosely based (with an original name as the actual figure has none) on this figure from the "BEAST RAIDERS" repaint line "WITCHCRAFT KNIGHT." As you can see I said loosely based, as this figure appears to be cheaply made & with the lack of paint, she seems to not even be wearing anything below her waist!! lol ...so some artistic liberty was taken on this one. lol

That is some fantastic art! My only complaint is that Thunderthor is not holding his power sword.

Thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate it!! Jay I actually did Thunderthor without the sword to separate him a little more from "He-Man" but I totally understand. lol Ghouldrool thank you so much, I was going for a 80's animation vibe with this art (which is mostly what I go for anyway) lol There will be more Beast Raiders art, including Tusk, Warr, Slime, & others... thanks for your patience!!

Your art is really, really good, and as with most of the cheap brandless toys that I love, it's usually the art that sells it. Although the True Legends boxes now feature some art, Chap Mei itself uses photograpy rather than actual art. Therefore, it's really wicked to see some actual renditions of Chap Mei characters. High five!

Thanks guys!! I would like to continue/return to Beast Raiders, and also do Dino Valley, Heroes Of Olympus, as well as True Heroes L.A.S.E.R. at some point.
