Another drawing I did with being encouraged to make a Digimon boxer sona, also funny enough learning that today's Digimon Day, so seems fitting to share, lol!
Howdy, all! After some much-needed R&R (i.e. going to sleep for about half a day), I just wanted to say a HUGE Thank You! to each and every one of you who participated in Boxing Gorilla Day's 10th anniversary event this past weekend. The response was *amazing*; the best yet by far. #BoxingGorillaDay
The eighth and final page of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which the moral of the story turns out to be that sometimes several wrongs *do* make a right, especially where dirty fighters are concerned. 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Page seven of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which a corny gag precedes another wince-inducing low blow and the king's personal assistant is subject to bullying in the workplace but nobody minds much. 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Page six of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which the aforementioned cunning plan is revealed to the reader, large quantities of drink are consumed and poor Mungo comes in for a brutal battering! 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Page five of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which Gus makes a comeback and a well-placed knee could very well cause male readers to grimace in sympathy. Also Tantor uses BEING LOUD as a distraction. 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Page four of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which fists begin to fly and Mungo demonstrates that he's packing some power in those hands of his. Also King Leonidas demonstrates his usual lack of decorum. 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Page three of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which Gus is revealed to be a cheating bounder and an undeterred Mungo challenges him to a prizefight. Also, a cunning plan starts to be formulated! 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Page two of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which we meet our antagonists Gus and King Leonidas along with a talkative kangaroo. Also a luckless hippo on vacation from Zootopia gets his clock cleaned. 🖋️ by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
AND NOW! It's time for our BGD 2026 feature presentation. Written by me and with stunning artwork by the wizardly @hunter-husky.bsky.social, it's a comic set in his Disney-themed alternate universe where just about everyone boxes, and it's entitled: PUNCH DRUNK ON NABOOMBU! #BoxingGorillaDay
Page one of Punch Drunk On Naboombu, in which we're introduced to our holidaying heroes Mungo and Tantor as they arrive on the titular isle and decide to indulge in a spot of pugilism before lunch. 🖋️by @amigasquare.bsky.social 🎨 by @hunter-husky.bsky.social #BoxingGorillaDay #PunchDrunkOnNaboombu
Post-fight and all patched up, Omari and Bruiser visit the local ice cream parlour. It doesn't look as though they'll be eating much ice cream, however, as the two brawny lugs have now decided to see who's the best at arm wrestling! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
Ultimately, it's a thunderous overhand left from Bruiser in round six that brings the match to a close – it lifts Omari clean off his feet and puts him flat on his back for a count of 10. Your winnah, ladies and gents: BRUISEEEEERRR! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
Things turn nasty in round four when a wild uppercut from Bruiser sees him elbow Omari in the nose: and in round five Omari retaliates by biting his opponent! Both apes are now riled up again, and they land HEAVY blows in round six! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
And now it's time for our special exhibition bout between @omariape.bsky.social and @spikesthesinful.bsky.social' Bruiser (told you they'd be back!), with artwork by the eternally terrific Alan Stewart (whose art can be found at www.instagram.com/artofalan.) Don't touch that dial! #BoxingGorillaDay
We now go live to the Boxing Gorilla Day stadium, and the crowd is going wild as our exhibition match contenders give them an explosive gun show! They've been posing for a while, in fact, hence the ref looking a bit worried time-wise. 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
Okay! Bruiser and Omari are done showing off their muscles and they're both raring to fight as the ref gives them their final instructions. Let's hope they can hear him over all that testosterone; they're a hugely competitive pair! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
As the first round ends, Bruiser and Omari return to their corners – and it looks like their trainers have some advice for them, which I imagine can be summarised as, "Pace yourselves and try not to get punched in the head so much." 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
For the next couple of rounds, both fighters take a more measured approach – but it's Omari who lands the best hits, including a wince-inducing gut shot in round two and a nose-crunching straight left towards the end of round three! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
That hard-hitting start to the bout has taken its toll on both competitors as they lock up in the centre of the ring. With round one nearing its end, Omari and Bruiser are obviously dazed and winded from taking such devastating blows! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
There's the bell for round one and YOWZA! These two are definitely not wasting any time now! A mighty left-right combo from Omari has Bruiser on the ropes, but he surges back with an uppercut! A left to the gut! And a BIG right cross! 🎨 by Alan Stewart (www.instagram.com/artofalan) #BoxingGorillaDay
So, without further ado, here's the completed Boxing Gorilla Day art raffle illustration for 2026 by yours truly: Doko vs Lahmu! Hearty congrats once again to this year's winners, @dokoronuki.bsky.social and @lahmuthebeast.bsky.social, and I hope the finished piece proves pleasing! #BoxingGorillaDay
Back for round two of Boxing Gorilla Day 2026, it's @luianime88.bsky.social with another corking commish by the unfailingly excellent @hunter-husky.bsky.social, starring Johnny and Jimmy Crystal from the Sing films. In terms of pugilistic skill, Johnny clearly takes after his dad! #BoxingGorillaDay
Commission: @Nanothehedgehog Day 2: The second art of #BoxingGorillaDay for the near 5th anniversary of of Sing 2 Johnny vs Jimmy Crystal, The son of the gorilla boss trapping the Artic wolf into a corner almost putting this boxing into a close.
Kicking off the second day of #BoxingGorillaDay, we have a continuing match between Jim Bo'Nana & Boogruk. While Boog is probably one of the most easy going, and friendly fighters in my cast of 'rillas...he's all business when it comes to the ring. While formidable, Jim is no real match for 'ruk.
Here we have another star studded match against two intense rivals Lewis and Omari (they'll make up to each in bed) for #boxinggorilladay! Omari owned by @omariape.bsky.social. Art by the one and only @hunter-husky.bsky.social who does loads of boxer themed goodies here and on his Patreon ;3.

Moving along to the 2025 tournament we have this super fun pic "Battle of the Beach Bods" featuring Funky Kong vs Thrilla Gorilla. #BoxingGorillaDay
And with that, we’ve reached the end of my contributions for this years #Boxinggorilladay. I hope you liked this year’s artwork as much as I did. I have a few thanks I want to give below this post but if you don’t care to read it, consider this final piece an epilogue to this large project.
DING DING DING!!! 🔔 Weighing in at 800 pounds and standing in at 7’10”, your new reigning champion, give it up for…DONKEY KONG! (heads up, there’s one more piece after this but the fight stuff is officially over) Just to say it one last time, art was done by the epic @hikariwolfworks.bsky.social
