Warming UP!!!!!

I've always been a fan of the shirts at threadless.com, but when I saw they were doing a Muppet Design Challenge, I had to enter!

Most of the designs feature Kermit and the gang, and rightfully so, but I wanted a shirt featuring the somewhat obscure, yet personal favorite, Muppaphones.



Granted something so obscure isn't likely to win, but it was fun to draw. I tried to give each Muppaphone a different personality, while still expressing their overall discomfort.

If you get a chance, click here and score my design on a scale of 1 to 5. Five is the best and One is the... well... LEAST best.

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to score!

...HEY! Someone should put THAT on a t-shirt!

P.S. - For those of you wondering, THIS is a Muppaphone.

D.C. Dogs

Maybe you've heard of Marvel Cats... but what about D.C. Dogs?

I did these for a thread we have going at artist Ben Caldwell's Action Cartooning forum.



For all of you aspiring artists out there, like me, this forum is a great place to visit. I have come SO FAR with my work in the last 4 years and it's mainly due to the comfortable atmosphere of the forum and the constructive comments from all of the other artists. Not to mention the incredible tutorials from Ben Caldwell himself.

Check it out... and join the fun with YOUR D.C. dog!

Leonardo Leads

So aside from the fact that Saul Bass made awesome posters, he also had a cool name. Someone else with a cool name: the leader of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Leonardo. Incidentally, Leonardo was named for artist Leonardo da Vinci, who painted "The Last Supper" which depicted Jesus and a bunch of apostles. Jesus also had an apostle named Paul, who's original name was... wait for it... Saul.

Whatever. Here's some stuff I did.

When I Get To The Moon

Here's a little something I did some simple animation for.



Number One Group Team Conglomerate

Because The Future... Is Tomorrow.

Gusto Squirrel

I decided I need to take more breaks from the fan art, so here's something original.

It's a squirrel!

Disney Star Wars - Part Three

The third installment of me drawing other people's characters as different other people's characters.

THE MASTERS:



This last one is a little obscure, but I've been playing a lot of "Epic Mickey" lately and can't think of anyone maniacal enough to play the Emperor other than the Mad Doctor.

Disney Star Wars - Part Two

THE REST OF THE GANG:
Since I drew Donald as Luke, I decided to cast everyone else respectively.

Disney Star Wars - Part One

Disney has already done this with a line of action figures, but I wanted to give it sort of my own spin.

THE HERO:
Usually, Mickey Mouse is always the one to be portrayed as Luke Skywalker, which does make more sense, but I've always loved Donald Duck and wanted to draw him as the hero from Tatooine.





More to come.

I'm Back, BABY!!!

After yet another hiatus, I return to the Wonderful World of the Blog. Hopefully I will have some fun stuff to post in the next few weeks... so, stay tuned.
