Cartoon Break- The WERE-MAN!

Something Else

It's hard to tell but I've been posting from DINOSAUR HUNTER AND DINOSAUR CIRCUS and there has been zero feedback so I get the feeling this stuff is being met with a big collective yawn! So I guess I'll just post random stuff I like for a while. What say you, anybody?

PONG!

Journey to the Center of the Earth 2

Cartoons in the Rough

Some amoeba standup comedy and a conversation with my wife...

So White

Creepy Roll

I did the horror painter self-portrait thing, then did a version where it was Uncle Creepy (I had been given a Creepy reprint volume for christmas and finally got around to looking through it- I bought all those mags new off the stands way back when). In order to try and get Uncle Creepy right I dug out a Jack Davis model sheet of sorts (thee heads) and studied it. It helped make the picture more accurate than had I relied on memory. But it got me going on these sketches just for fun and the first couple I did I thought were not bad- until I sat back and looked at them a while and realized I had not captured that loose angular fun quality unique to Jack Davis- the EC/MAD artist who I think tends to be under-appreciated in favor of Drucker and Wood and Elder and Ingels and so on... and had another whack where I think I got better results. Check 'em out.

All in the Addams Family

Charles Addams and Doctor Seuss were the first artists I knew by name and had books by... warped my whole life! This is a tribute to the first artist I knew who exclusively did monsters and the macabre!

Bobbing for Addams

Caption? Does this need a caption? And if so... got one?

Frazetta-cetera

Every once in while while sketching I seem to drag out the old Frazetta wannabee chops and something like this appears. Then I realize how nobody can touch that guy when it comes to this sort of thing and even those who manage to ape the surface details fall so far short of the real deal. Artists often learn by copying those they like but maybe to their ultimate detriment if they don't move beyond the source and find their own way. But I may take this piece further and do a progress report just because, God help me it IS a fun artistic place to play once in a while. It's not a direct swipe of anything at least.

Kirby Enthusiasm

I heard they were doing an AVENGERS cartoon show and it got me itching to haul out the old Kirby chops one more time. Yeah, it ain't great but it took me way back just thinking about the original Avengers. At least Iron Man isn't wearing the VERY first suit!
