New Topic

Looks like Memorial Day took a hit on Toon Club, but let's move right along anyway. The next topic shall be... "I.T. Guy"!

Feedback for Mobsters goes here.

The Kingpin!

I was gone until today and wasn't able to finish until this morning. Sorry it's late. I was watching Daredevil last week and thought the Kingpin was THE mobster of the comic book world, so...

The Rat Pack



Although probably more likely to croon than kill, you KNOW "Old Blue Eyes" was definitely mobbed up.

Everybody to the table

I enjoyed this week's topic. I've always liked drawing Lobst...wait a second...m-o- you gotta be kidding me.
Uh, this is Al Capone's right hand man...crustacean. Please pass the butter.

Egyptian Girl and Egyptian Cat

Gaah! Mobsters! Right! I was at my writing group last night doing sketches and I could not remember what this week's topic was. Ah well. Here's one for last week's instead. :)

Little Pharaoh

Sobek, the crocodile god


Sobek the crocodile god. Don't go skinny dippin' unless you're wearing your Sobek repelant.

Stalk Like an Egyptian

Let my painting go!

If the Egyptians had all been artists, Moses could have just plagued them with starting too many projects and never finishing them.

"Men are from Rome, Women are from Egypt."



I believe this was the saying during the romance of Marc Antony and Cleopatra. They had quite the long distance relationship.

I don't really like Don Bluth films. But I like dinosaurs. Here's a pink one.

Chaka!

My favorite character from The Land Before Time was Chaka. He always creeped me ou-

What? Chaka's from what? Land of the- oh come on! I wasted a whole week on this?! Oh well, it was a cool show too.

You know what else was a cool show? Tremors. Kevin Bacon was so funny! "We think ahead, that way we don't have to do anything." Hahahahaha! Man, that's great. Hey! You ever play that game where you think of how many actors it takes to link up with-

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!

New Topic Time

Great job, everyone! Lots of cool spidey-ness!

One of the topics on our list was "Don Bluth Characters", but I think that is a bit overwhelming, so we are going to change it up a bit to be "Land Before Time". So dust off those sharptooths (sharpteeth?) and longnecks... It's time to get prehistoric!

Feedback for Spidey goes here.

Spider-Man Guy™



Ever imagine what Spider-Man would look like as a stick figure?

Comic Based on a Non-Existing Cartoon



Summer Sequel Race

First out of the gate.

What was the topic?



I knew the topic had something to do with superheroes, so I thought I'd be safe and just do all the heroes and villains I could think of. I don't think I forgot anybo...... AH, DANGIT!!!

New Topic Time: Spider-Man

Greetings, true believers! It's finally time we got down to business and payed homage to our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man! So get out those pencils, pens, brushes, computers, and whatever else an adventurous artist needs to render a cool Spidey pic, and I'll see you on the flip side!

Excelsior!

Sigh... I'm a nerd.

A Three Hour Tour


They were surrounded by a sea of salty water, we were surrounded by a sea of corny programming.

Keep Looking

Man, I'm thirsty.

Too Much Water


I always thought it would be cool to flood my house and swim around in it. As I consider it now, I'm not sure that would have worked. Still worth a shot, though.

Water!



Frolicking water creatures and a pirate afloat! Hurrah!

Mer-Mischief

Updated with Textures... Very rough, I don't have the original hi-res file at work.

Dangerous Waters


I recently did this for the Wall Street Journal. I thought it was fun to do a underwater scene. Cheers.

New Topic Time!

Thanks to everyone who played along last week... Remember, you can always post on a topic you missed! Just backdate your post (or leave it be and we'll backdate it for you when the time comes.)

This week's topic is going to be...

But before I get to that, there has been some discussion about having a TOON CLUB BBQ! I think we can have it at the clubhouse of my apartments, which means we can invite everybody's families. Are you all interested in doing this, and what time frames would be good for you? Be sure to discuss it here on this post.

And now, this week's topic is.... WATER!

Now draw! Draw like the wind!

New Topic Time

Great job last week everyone. I feel like I'm living my second childhood!

No reason to be monkeying around... I'll just get to it. This week's topic is King Kong.

Feedback for last week goes here.

Ice Cream Monster!


The first one they made was Ice Cream Monster, but it was too hard to clean off the Chocolate Syrup (Yes, it's Chocolate Syrup). So they made Cookie monster after that. Personally, I'd take Ice Cream over Cookies any day, but you can understand where the Muppeteers were coming from...

Super Grover to the Rescue!



I thought I'd combine two of my favorite characters on Sesame Street for my Toon Club Entry. Oh, who am I kidding? They're all my favorites. Super Grover always cracked me up (or was it that he always cracked up?), and Berts plans always seem to the be foiled by his roomie, Ernie, so I figured I'd marry the two ideas.

KOWABUNGA!

Big Bird, cut it out!

wanted to try something new.
...turns out someone already invented a similar big yellow bird.

The day that Mr. Hooper died.


This was a rather disturbing episode.

Kid's Puppet Fun Time, Alright!

We were poor growing up and never got Sesame Street. We would only get this rip-off version that, frankly, left us wanting... and very frightened.

The 13th Ladybug


"The Ladybug Picnic" was always one of my favorite segments on Sesame Street. Of course, I wasn't the 13th ladybug... waiting by the phone with my marshmallow and my racing sack. Ladybugs can be so exclusionary.

The Alligator King and His Seventh Son

The Alligator King had seven sons, according to Pixar and Children's Television Workshop veteran Bud Luckey. And yes, this video clip is 100% kid friendly.
