Original Cartoon Heroes: "Betty Boop" Behind the Art

How does she curl her hair like that?

Not for nuthin', but this Betty Boop I did up is HOT. I can't wait to reveal her fully.

Original Cartoon Heroes: "Tex Avery" Behind the Art

Doing research on Tex Avery for Original Cartoon Heroes, and I cannot for the life of me find any good photos of him online. Too small, or he's looking away from the camera. I even tried my local library branch, but the 2 books I needed are in Reference and not available for check out. Bummed!
Luckily, Fred is ordering me the books off of Amazon! Thanks Fred! :)
In the meantime, here are a few studies of Tex I did.

Original Cartoon Heroes: "Bakshi Studies" Behind the Art

For those of you not in the know, I've been working on a dream freelance project w/ Fred Seibert of Frederator on a postcard tribute series, named Original Cartoon Heroes.
Fred & I came up with a list of Animation Legends, and I'm very proud to pay tribute & give homage to these Greats in my style.
Above you will see my studies for Ralph Bakshi. The only one of the list who is still with us, still painting, still drawing, still stirring the Animation stew (and adding a lot of pepper and hot sauce while he's at it!)
Ralph Bakshi is a hero of mine, and I am pleased to say that he's using an early incarnation of my Original Cartoon Heroes tributes as his personal Facebook Avatar still! For that, I am honored beyond belief!
I can't wait to share the new version I've done w/ him!

Thank you Ralph.

Thank you Fred.

Thanks to Cartoons.

Not much new to report.

The Freelance train is still chugging along!

More keeps falling into my lap, which is pretty great. :)

I'm very thankful & grateful for that. Thank you everyone.

I'm pretty close to finishing up on one freelance project during the next few days.

The finish line is in sight.

Not sure if I've mentioned it on here yet, but I've been asked to start blogging at these fine On-line locations:

• Youtube Time-machine
• The Autumn Society
• American Horrors

This is my main-base of blogging operations, but you can also still find me over at my Frederator Studios blog, Lunch Break as well.
<~~~~~~~~~(or you can click on the nifty Lunch Box w/ my name on it, to the left on the side-bar over there.)

As I've mentioned before, I am available for freelance of any artistic sort. Illustration, Comics, Animation, character design, storyboards, comedy writing, etc.
If you are, or if you know of anyone, looking for any one of those things that need to be filled, send them, or yourself, my way. My info is over on the side-bar, under my name all up in my profile.

Thanks homies!
