Mighty B storyboard stuff


****EDIT!!!!!****

I added some new poses that I forgot about at the bottom...they are from the end of the show, so if you don't want to know what happens at the end of the episode, stay away! >u<



My episode was on tonight! I missed it though because I was at work. Booo! A friend taped it for me though. Thank you friend!


Anyhow, I think now that my episode aired, it's ok to post some drawings from the storyboard. I feel pretty honored to have been able to storyboard for this show- it has really, REALLY amazing artists, and I felt pretty intimidated a lot of the time. I wish I had gotten to know some of the people there better, but I can be pretty shy in person. My officemate
Justin, who did a bunch of great boards, is really cool though. I miss him now that I'm at Disney again.


This is how I feel in the morning.




David Gemmill added a bunch of cool cartoony poses to this part where Bessie is running in place on her bed, and it turned out really fluid and nice.




Erik Wiese, who created this show, acted out this grunt for me to draw. :)


I like these Bessie poses...I don't remember if they made it into the show though!



Oh, I forgot to mention, this episode is about Bessie having a really really terrible day, where everything goes wrong. It was fun to draw because I really like drawing expressions on characters, and puting my own misery into the drawings. :)


I think this part with her soul floating away got cut for time.








I love drawing anguish. :)


More anguish! This got cut though.



Bessie as a Linda Blair beast...this drawing is based off of an Alex Kirwan drawing from the beatboard that he did for my episode. His drawings are amazing. He's a total animation hero.














Bessie dancing, dressed as a giant pineapple.













I saved the best for last...check out the title card, painted by Bill Wray!! So pretty! I didn't contribute to this at all...I'm not sure who drew the layout, it might have been Bill as well. I'll try to find out and give credit.




Sooo pretty! Check out more pretty and cool paintings on Bill's blog!



That's it for now! Thanks fer visiting! UuU

Cool looking girls

I haven't had enough free time for drawing lately, but I did get inspired last week by some of the girls on Nico's blog, Little Pretty Stories.



I think Shelley Duval is pretty. I'm always envious of girls who's ears stick out of their hair. My ears are tiny and boring and flat.




Another Shelley, although this one doesn't really look like her. The photo was so pretty though!




These lavenderish ones are suppose to be Joanna Newsom. I'm not too familiar with her or her music, but she seems interesting. She certainly has an interesting and pretty look. A lot of people are drawing her lately. Christine's is my favorite so far.


Monday the 21st marks the series premier of The Mighty B! season 2! Watch it on Nickelodeon! There are so many good artists working on that show. I'm gonna talk more about the show and the episodes I storyboarded later on, but for now, check out this preview:

The Mighty B!



One more thing, I have a little interview up that you can listen to over at Eskimo Bob's radio show. My part starts about 36 minutes in, but listen to the whole thing! Thanks Bob for inviting me on! :D

***EDIT!***
I want to correct something I said in the interview- I talked a bit about the "Dragon Ball Z" comics, but I meant to just say "Dragon Ball." I'm a big fan of Dragon Ball, but couldn't get into Dragon Ball Z too much. Also, I forgot to mention the name of the artist who makes these cool comics, Akira Toriyama. Duh!!

Hillbilly post-its

I've been working on a personal project in my spare time for a while now...I'm not that far into it, but I'm really really excited about the idea. It'll be a long time before it's finished, but in the meantime, here are some doodles of the main characters:





These are all done with my current favorite art supplies, post-its, ball point pen, and dried out highlighters. Sometimes the funnest drawing utensils can be found on a regular old work desk. :)






I like these, I hope you will too. I always like my doodly wonky stuff more than the drawings I labor over. :)





That's all for now, at least regarding my new pet project! I wonder if their personalities show through in these.

And in case you missed it over the holiday weekend, I have another print for sale:



Pretty girls of Star Trek TOS, all arranged together on 11 x 14 quality cardstock, just for you! I'm very happy with how these turned out, so please take a look at my Etsy Store!

Thanks everyone!

Star Trek print!

Thanks to everyone's feedback, I decided on this as my next print to sell.



I really like how this came out! They look really nice in person. This poster is made up of Post-It doodles I've been doing while referencing the beautiful girls of Star Trek TOS. It's nice and glossy and sturdy because it's printed on nice cardstock paper, and you can get one for 15 bucks!

I think I'll aim to get more prints put up every few months or so. Maybe Hillbillies next?

ALSO, it's a 3 day weekend!! Hooray! I'm gonna draw this weekend, so come back next week!
