she got legs...

...and she knows how to use them. Just another incidental character design.

more laughter

This is another incidental character. Nobody important, just a guy in a crowd scene. You know how animators loooooovvvvee crowd scenes.

BEATNIK

Laughing is coooooooollllllllllll maaaaannnnn. Can ya dig it?

Me and my girlfriend sitting at a table

I haven't been posting as often as I should be, been crazy busy with both work and play, and been out of town a lot this summer. But I will have a ton of new designs from the project I have been working on to post...A TON! The above pic is just a couple of incidental characters in the background, they are caricatures of my girlfriend and myself.

HERE I COME TO SAVE THE DAY!!!

MIGHTY MOUSE IS ON HIS WAY!

I usually draw Darkwing Duck when I am practicing and loosening up. But this time it's Mighty Mouse, because I have been watching a lot of the Bakshi, John K. Mighty Mouse cartoons on you-tube. I've also been watching the very old Mighty Mouse cartoons, they have much better stories and much better timing, and more well thought out and interesting ways for Mighty Mouse to save the day, but the drawings are very dated and not as fun to draw as the Bakshi, John K. Mighty Mouse cartoons.

new sketchbook

A good way to start off a new sketchbook is drawing girls.

Riot Cop....

...or more like RIOT PIG.

French Loaf

Just some old stuff from a past production. No new stuff yet.

more filler

From the same production as the post below, some bg designs. From top to bottom; exterior Noah's house, interior Noah's house, interior corner of the Noah's ark. Did I mention I have been busy working on my PUPPET and that's why I have nothing new to share?

filler

Sorry nothing new to post yet. I haven't had time to draw stuff that was not for work. I have been using my spare time to work on my PUPPET. And I can't post my work stuff until September. There will be a lot coll stuff to post then, the project I am on is a lot of fun. Maybe I will sneak in a post or two of some rejected characters; they can't have any objections to that...can they? In the meantime here a few rough oldies.

Hellooooooo ladies

Another little animatic from Pig City. There's something funny about a pig Casanova, and female pigs that are supposed to look hot.

BIG HUG!

The other great thing about Pig City, it is a very happy show. Look at the characters, they great big smiles, even when they are not in smiling expressions they look FUN. They have fun in their eyes. This was also reflected in the scripts and voice acting. There were no sad, lonely, pathetic, mean, bitter or angry characters in this show. Martha, the girl pig, was the angry type, but it was still done in a way that was fun.

POLKA DOT PIG

I have a bunch of these. The great thing about this show is that all the pigs had the exact same construction. The only thing that made the characters any different were the accessories, hair, clothes, that kind of thing. I'm sure it made for some pretty easy over seas animation. I also did animation corrections on this series, and I don't recall there being any "off model" corrections to do.

Pigs in a car

Here's another scene from Pig City.

PIG CITY

We go from one of the worse shows I worked on, Daft Planet a couple posts below, to one of the best, Pig City. Here's a little animated gif I threw together from some of my posing on that show. Pig City is the best show I have worked on that made it to air. The writing is very funny, the designs are decent, the voice acting was great. It is the only show I have ever worked on that I can watch on TV and enjoy. Every other production has been unwatchable. Oddly enough both the worse show, Daft Planet, and the best show, Pig City, were both productions of the same studio, CineGroupe.
