Mr Bug Goes To Town

I finally have some time to myself so that I can draw. School is done and my summer classes don't start for another week and a half, so I decided to draw something.

Micheal Sporn (who I linked to before on this blog) has just posted some excellent model sheets from the Fleischer Studios second and final feature film animation, Mr. Bug Goes To Town. Inspired by these model sheets I doodled for a while until I came up with this piece. Scanned and then inked and painted in TVPaint. So far I have only used TVPaint to draw and ink in, but have not really done much animation in it yet.

Here's part 2 on our epic journey for revenge, starring that loveable Casper.

GGG-GHOST!

Haven't posted anything up in a while.  I was busy doing the special effects animation course, but now I started a full-time job  (*knock-knock* housekeeeeping. whatever it is still a job) and I am about to start full-time classes online in less than a week for my web design certificate.  So all of my fun animating and drawing will come to another stand-still.  Who knows though we will see.

Anyways here is a fun little comic that I am putting together, and it has to do with everyone's favorite ghost, Casper.

Mighty Mouse Comic Strip

Well here is my first comic strip made just in time for the holidays. It's a Christmas adventure, so I barely got it done in time. Now that a lot of the holiday rush is over I can post it up here for you guys to see. It was kinda rushed to get it done before Christmas, so there was more I wanted to do with it, but being my first comic, I don't mind if it's a little incomplete.






So that was my first finished comic, exciting huh? It was a lot of fun, and it did push me to draw a lot better. I was just drawing Mighty Mouse off of one of his model sheets and was having fun putting him in different poses, so I decided to do a comic with him in it.

Here is my rough storyboard, and then scene sketches.


















Now, here are those sketches arranged on a page and cleaned up. I didn't start off with a full page layout in mind, but i think it worked out pretty well. Next time I will probably do shorter stuff, so that I can work on different specific areas easier. Also I think of the page layout earlier than this time.






Inspired by this post that I read a long time ago, and after looking at it again, it ironically shows a Mighty Mouse comic. What are the odds.
