hey new post, and it's not even your birthday!!

hey kids, it's me again...yes..I know...milestone is finished, i'm drawin' a bit more, sorta...well, I should be drawin's more, but i haven't been...I know, I suck. Anyway, I've got a show comin' up, called Saturday morning...where you can do anything associated with Saturday mornin'..i.e. cereal, cartoons, playfull kicks to the head, any of it. So, of course I had to do Tex Avery. More specifically, Red and Droopy. So, below you'll find my really crappy rough sketches for the paintings I'm going to be doin'.


I'm kinda liking this one, more blocky and not a complete rip off of the character model sheet.
but there's something to be said about this one with a little more roundness...dunno yet, let you know when it's done which one i use....which should be soon...this weekend is the last days I'll have to work on it....giggle, giggle, snort, gulp...

And here's my Red with the wolf. I went more of a rockabilly chick with her, tho I'll prolly switch back to her more iconic hair...i just thought it'd be funny if the wolf was all gaga over droopy in a thong and pasties...i plan on trying to make the background look a little like watercolor, tho, I suck at watercolor, and all I have are acrylics...so I'll just water them down a bit and see how it turns out...anyway...wish me luck, and I'll post the finished pieces up here when finished and done'd....so go check out Esther's blog to see the new awesome photos that Huddle posted tonight. She'll help you lose weight by barfing from the cuteness.
