Penguin Suits - Thanos

Defender of Color Coordination

     I've been watching a lot of the new Voltron on Netflix lately and, while I enjoy it, there's one little thing that gnaws at the very nerd fiber of my being! The team undergoes a slight change in roster and ends up playing a game of musical chairs with their lions. This is all well and good but what bugs me is that even though some members of the team get new lions, their uniform colors still coordinate with their old lions! You've got the Black Paladin wearing red, the Red Paladin wearing blue, and the Blue Paladin wearing... PINK?! What is that?!

     I realize that, realistically, the paladins would be too busy fighting the bad guys to tailor new costumes for themselves, but we're not talking about reality here! We're talking about a cartoon where giant robot lions fly around in outer space!

     No! I'm doing something about this! I, hereby, officially summon the POWER OF PHOTOSHOP! ROOOOAAAAAAAAaaaaaaarrrrrr.....

That roar was my photoshop skills.

My skills can roar.

Yabba Dabba Dudes

     There are plenty of things in pop culture that I claim to love, yet NEVER have anything to do with any more. The Flintstones fall into that group. I can't say why exactly. I enjoy partaking in a good Honeymooners ripoff as much as anybody, and yet, I can't remember the last time I actually watched a Flintstones episode.

     When I started typing this, I thought I had more of a point to make... but I guess not. I wonder what caused the extinction of the dinosaurs in the Flintstone-verse. I'm guessing it was some sort of labor dispute that went horribly wrong.

Prisoner of Azkaban - Ron Weasley

Always fun to draw, here's Ron Weasley, looking at his best buddy's tea leaves.

That sounds weird.

March of the Penguin Suits 2018

     I've done the March of the Penguin Suits a few times before where I'll post a different Penguin Suit each day in the month of March. Well... that's not the case this time.

     I've decided to give the little guys' look a slight tweak. Therefore, this smaller scale March of the Penguin Suits post is just to inaugurate what I've done. I'm calling it Penguin Suits version 3-point-Who Gives a Flip!

     And, just for laughs, each penguin is cosplaying as another "famous" penguin. 100 Give-a-Flip points to whoever can name them all! I'm not messing around here, folks! Get to guessing!

Prisoner of Azkaban - Harry Potter

     It's been far too long since I've drawn anything Harry Potter. Here's the Wiz Kid, himself solemnly swearing his up-to-no-gooodness!

Happy VILLAINtines Day!

     Here's yet another take on the Teddy Ruxpin characters for my make-believe fan reboot of the series. Specifically, wannabe bad guys Tweeg and L.B.

     Someone once asked who I would cast as the voices for this reboot that I've concocted. Thinking about that sort of thing is always fun for me, so here's who I've come up with for these two.

Jack W. Tweeg - Corey Burton (Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, Adventures of the Gummi Bears)

L.B. - John DiMaggio (Futurama, Batman: The Brave and the Bold)

     Of course there's nothing saying that these choices are right and other choices would be wrong... well... except for me. I'm saying that.

These choices are right.

Meet The Smidgeons!

     On a couple of past occasions, I've toyed with this idea of placing tiny cartoon characters in a real environment. They used to be robots, but I guess I grew a little bored with that part of the idea so I decided to start over with the whole thing.

     I had talked about how difficult it was for me to come up with a name for these guys. I asked my wife for input and she instantly came up with "smidgeons." What can I say? She's the best. I also thought it'd be fun to imagine them as a series of children's books, and in doing so... also imagine that I was actually successful! Fun, right?

Enjoy the Smidgeons!
