Heya' Fellys!


It's Monday, August 31st, 2020. Tomorrow marks a new month for The Island, and also the end of an era for Crabs.


In December of 2010, nearly TEN years ago, I drew Crabs for the first time. The Crabs used colors from the default color list on the old version of MS Paint- We're talking Windows XP MS Paint, that's old!

For over 3,500 days, those Crab colors you see in those images, still in use- But September 1st, 2020, that all changes with the classic color update.


Today, we will look back at some old drawings of some Crabs with the soon-to-be old colors, just for some last minute nostalgia.
