Ren and Stimpy

Another piece for my forthcoming fanart book. This project is going to take a long while. I'm in no rush. The work is a ton of fun and in the end this collection of images will be something really special that I am excited for people to enjoy.

Anyway, here we have the great Ren and Stimpy. This cartoon will always stand up as one of the funniest, most original cartoons ever. It had incredible art too. These guys were a lot of fun to draw.

Shtuff

 Have not posted in a bit so here's a healthy chunk of doodles to make up for lost time. Hopefully I haven't posted any of this stuff before. If I have, I apologize.

I've got a lot of exciting personal projects cooking right now. I'm fully devoting myself to my various intellectual properties and will bring them to a state of completion so that they can be shared. I'm working on several art books, children's books and a graphic novel. This is the tip of the iceberg. More details soon!

Thank you for visiting!

Baxter Stockman!

 Another childhood classic, the uber gross Baxter Stockman from TMNT. Below are some of the other steps in the process of making this illustration. The inks are directly below this text, below that is the pencil drawing where the process began. I had a ton of fun with with one. I'm looking forward to continuing this nostalgia series of character pieces. I will eventually collect them all in a self-published book, hoping for a hardcover. Having fun, hope you enjoy!

Pizzaface!

My rendition of one of my favorite funky Playmates TMNT figures from my childhood: Pizzaface! This was so much fun to draw/color. They don't make 'em like this anymore. I always loved the gross, fun details on this figure. The whole Playmates line of Turtles toys was a significant part of my childhood. The fun, wild, silly, cartoony character designs/concepts of the toy line/tv show/movies influence and inspire me creatively to this day.

I'm working on putting together a book of nostalgic illustrations like this one. The book will feature fanart depicting favorite characters from my childhood. It's for myself and all of my fellow 80's/90's kids. It will be available when it's available, info will be posted here on this blog.

Feelin' Cartoony

 Been watching a lot of animation recently, really feeling the cartoony vibes. This is reflected in my recent doodles.

Aside from doodling away, I am working on getting some very cool self publishing projects out there soon. Stay tooned!!!
