Hens love roosters, geese love ganders, everyone else loves Ned Flanders!
Flanders is an excellent case study for this project. There's an entire trope named after him - 2021-10-07 08:00:03 +0000 UTC View Post
One of the most significant, non-significant characters in the show's mythos. I mean, there he is every episode*, right there in the show's intro, but what do we really know about Mr Largo?

Unlike the classic character 'girl playing "German Santa"', I'm taking a stand here: This is Ralph Wiggum. 2021-09-30 08:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post
Ooh, this one might be potentially contentious!
I am making an executive decision here: this character, identified as being in Lisa's class, is NOT Janey. She looks sort of similar (as much a...

Hiya folks!
Just thought I’d share the design for the exclusive print for September! This piece was 2021-09-24 08:23:08 +0000 UTC View Post
I was pleased to see Skinner show up so early! Sorry that I had to put "Armin Tamzarian" in there, but I might as well be thorough.
Skinner is one of those useful characters that can be seen ...

The final batch in my quest to draw a character from each Pixar film!
I’d argue that overall, the second half of Pixar’s output is shakier than the first half BUT I did really love Soul, ...

A quick minor detour before we get to the actual show! I believe this is the only character we'll be covering outside of the main canon, in an advert that aired before the show did. Milhouse is unn...

So here we are! The first major milestone, every character from the Tracey Ullman shorts has been drawn. Here they all are together.
That‘s 20 characters so far, 20 total. I also did two ...

Here we are! We made it! This is the last character of the Tracey Ullman shorts era. There are three shorts after "Family Therapy", but no new characters appear in them. And this guy is a DOOZY. 2021-09-16 08:01:01 +0000 UTC View Post
I forgot to post this guy after Bart the Hero! In the short “Scary Movie”, this is the big reveal at the end, causing Bart to scream in horror! The mutant has no lines but I thought he’d be f...

Inside Out is my second favourite Pixar film, it’s lovely and clever and the very best of what the studio can accomplish. Here in Scotland, Brave was a pretty big dea...

A lot of these shorts designs share a lot of similarities don't they? Muzzle-bears, blue hair, kind of bell-shaped body. This guy is almost interchangeable with Jake the Barber in some ways.

A bunch more Pixar characters! I still think of some of these guys as “recent” additions to the Pixar roster, even though they’re over a decade old!

This is it: the LAST character from Bart the Hero. We did it people, time to celebrate in the streets.

The "Bart the Hero" celebration continues!
This guy is such a cartoon burglar. Look at that mask, barely obscuring his face. He looks like one of the Beagle Boys.

Oh, the cat is named Scratchy! I got it now.
It's funny how The Simpsons has to define what a cartoon cat looks like within their world.
