The Players, The Plan Hatch, The Interruption

What luck! I was hoping to post this on "Secret Agents" but wasn't quite finished yet. Anyways I brainstormed so much on this topic I think it turned into a monster. Here's the picture anyways.

New Topic Time?

Since it's a holiday week, let's extend last week's topic, but add a new topic for everyone who were good last week. The new topic is "Criminal Mastermind", so if haven't posted "Secret Agent" yet, here's a chance to combine the two! Happy Labor Day everyone!

The Last of the Secret Agents

Secret agents are always so cleverly disguised that they're the last ones you would expect to be secret agents. Okay, the tall thin guy is a bit more obvious, but at least he can hide behind flag poles and such.

Consider this my first baby steps back to Toon Club... Hooray!

Agent Eugene Hamm

Secret agent Eugene Hamm, member of farmyard ops P.I.G. never forgets his sub-machine gun...or lunch.

Killer Agent

'Nuff said.

A Sheep in Wolf's Clothing

She's a what?

New Topic: Secret Agent

Great job on last week's marine life entries. Huzzah!

This week's topic is "Secret Agent".

Feedback for Killer Whales goes here.

Shamu Family Vacation

Not much to see here, folks.

Just a big, gross, humpback whale.

He's no Killer

I love how happy Killer Whales always seem to be. I reckon with a reputation like they've got, why not smile? Who's gonna tell you to stop?

Killer Whale

Not much to say here. It's just a killer whale... swimming or something.

What I liked to draw in High School.

New Topic: Killer Whales

Monday again... time for a new topic. And the new topic is: "Killer Whales." We could have called this topic "Orca," but that's too limiting for those of you who rather draw a murderous whale of the "gray" or "humpback" variety.

The Ugly Bug Ball

Burl Ives: Fat and Happy.

Sy Snootles Band

Droopy McCool is the little known member of Sy Snoodles' Band in Jabba the Hutt's Court. Play it Droopy!

This one goes to Eleven.

Beyonce'

Well, here's my rock star...

I drew her, Tom Scholes painted her.

Rock on.

John Denver

ETERNIA

This isn't a band, but c'mon, who rocks more than He-Man? I thought it'd be cool having all the He-Man characters in high school.

New Topic: Rock Bands and Singers

There you go. Have fun!

(Update: The topic can mean existing musicians, past or present, or if you don't really want to go that way, you could draw a generic band instead. -Shane)

Feedback for Pinocchio and spotlight staging goes here.

Tough Love

Nothing works like a good threat.

ANOTHER Blue Fairy

What?!
It's the blue fairy.

Of course the challenge is getting the appearance of blue into the sepia tones.

Lampwick was a Jackass!

The Blue Fairy

Just kidding. This is actually "Lust" from "Full Metal Alchemist" who's only goal in life is to be human... like Pinocchio!

Cleo?

Figaro! Figaro!

With the most humble apologies to Shane, here's Figaro. He was always my favorite character in the movie. I think he got jipped being paired with Minnie Mouse in the short cartoons. I guess Jiminy got an exclusive deal on the instructional filmstrips.

Pinocchio & Jiminy

Get Some!!!

Just in case you were wondering what game we'd be working on if Eisner were still CEO...

New Topic: Pinocchio

Hey, everyone! Good to see some of you back to posting and also to get our first ever Toon Club post from Heather last week. Thanks for your participation, everyone. Hooray for you.

This week's topic is going to be Pinocchio. There you go.

Chim Chum - Vacation

Summer Vacation

Vacations are for Sketching Monsters

This is what I do when I'm on vacation. I draw funny lookin' Monsters.

The idea was inspired by Monster's Inc., though the creature is my own design. The theme at Illustration Friday is "Missing" and so I thought I'd cheat and kill two birds with one stone.

I suppose I could have drawn me with stuff missing from my luggage after a trip but I thought this would be more fun to draw.

...And it'd better have a McPlayplace.

Personally, I believe that vacations involve hot running water, souvenir shops, and absolutely no spiders.

Death By Vacation

I always love vacations, but I can't think of the last time I had a relaxing one.

When I think "Vacation"...

Well, fellow ToonClubbers this topic made me think of the beach.

So naturally, I drew this.

Judith (update)

My wife and I just went to Alaska on a vacation and this is basically the only sketch I did during the whole week. It was some lady that unknowingly followed us around the airport. She was a bit of a nut. She looks like a Judith.

Update: I just found a photo we secretly snaped of her. She the lady that left her bag unattended at the check-in, and when we asked if it was hers, she said "no". Then, after the security guys show up, she says it IS hers. And later, she is the one who walked right past the huge line that everybody has to wait in at the security check point, and goes right up to the front. What the..!? Then, from clear across the terminal, she walk to within a few feet of me, looks at my face, and then just walks away. Nutty I tell ya. How could I not draw her?

summer

Summer always makes me think of girls dressed like this.

New Topic

This week's topic is "Vacation". Great work last week everyone!

Feedback for "30 Minutes" goes here.

Marth Daul

30 minutes of drawing crooked lines while carpooling with Shane, and one cute Sith later, here's my most recent late post...


Shane (Lewis, for all who don't know) and I had a horribly interesting discussion on the lady Jedi, and how pretty they are, yet how bad they suck at fighting. They need to unite and practice or something, 'cause the only butt-kicking lady Jedi and Sith are found in that sweet animated series that I covet.

Note the beauty mark.

Oh, and for you color enthusiasts...she's on Hoth.

30 minutes

These are 5 minute poses, adding about a minute between this would be a typical 30 minutes of drawing for me.

Kitties on the Gym

I think I spent about 30 minutes on this... Cats! Yay!

30 Minute Summer Drawing

Of course it's gonna be penguins. This is me, after all. Now I need to get some sleep so I have the energy comment on everyone's drawings from the last two weeks! Great stuff, everyone!

Animation thumbnails

I spent my half hour doing thumbs for an animation I'm working on

Snape

I was considering the 7th book in the Harry Potter series (having just read it), and Severus Snape, and thought "What would he look like?" Well, roughly, this is it. Not the Alan Rickman Snape from the movies, but the Snape from the book.

Since it took me under 30 minutes to finish this I figured I'd post it.

30 minutes of my life

This is the answer to Shane's question.

30-Minute Sketch

I like drawing with no purpose sometimes. I didn't know what I was drawing here until I was done. I'm still not sure what its significance is, but it appears to be a variation on what I've drawn the last two weeks... which means I'm stuck.

Summer?

Alright, so my take on summer is that I draw completely random things at odd times of the day. So, here go! I added some animals and they can count as my 30 min post. I was sketching for 30 min and these are the ones I liked.
