A FEW MORE DRAWINGS!



Boy, I'm really busy right now so I have to put up something quick and easy. Here's a model of a cavegirl that I did (above), taken from the mouthchart. I love drawing women that aren't pretty. I and a handfull of others have the non-pretty field to ourselves since pretty girl art is experiencing something of a silver age right now.

Here's the same cavegirl from the back. It would have been funnier with a slight buttcrack but it was for kids TV so... The woman on the right is a sort of Don Martinish varient on the Avery woman in the famous Screwy Squirrel cartoon. It looks like this version has some cleanup problems, especially around the feet and hands. I think we corrected that in the final model, at least I hope we did.


Here's a lady with a purse floating in the air, going around in a circle and being squirted by a perfume atomizer which is also floating. The reason she's doing this is....Aargh! It would take too long to explain! I've gotta get back to work!

Nice cartoon women! A cross between Don Martin and Tex Avery...does it get any better than that???

What shows were those for?

Well, I suppose underpants is a PTA-friendly substitute for butt-crack. Glad to hear you're busy! (Hope it means profitably busy. You cartoon guys all deserve to be millionaires!)

She ain't no oil painting! Eddie you have a rare groove going on over here. I love visiting every day, drifting in through the open window like a nasty odour.

I can't find Mr. Fontanelli's e-mail anywhere. Is it possible you could e-mail me his contact details? I miss him.

The floating lady must be another one of thiose "ghost" designs you did for that "Go Go Hypergrind!" video game...was that ever actually made and sold, btw?
Some time ago on Ebay there were hundreds of your and John's drawings for that project on auction--did you know that? Some of them went for really big bucks!

I love the "Martin-Avery" woman.
Non-pretty ladies are always fun to draw!

So Eddie whats your formula for an ugly woman? Bulbus man features and long hair? and orangatan titties? Any how they look great.

Eddie! Post some of the stuff from The Wacky World of Tex Avery! I remember you working so hard on it, you must have saved some board panels or something, no?

Hey Eddie!

I've never commented on here before but I've read it lots and it almost always makes a'me smile. You should publish a book with all your theories on everything. Check out my cartoon on youtube if you have the chance and tell me what you think about it.

you could just cut and paste this link if you want.

John P.: Funny cartoon!

Steve: Nice Spoon guitar!

Matt: I'll email it!

Anonymous: My drawings on ebay!? Son of a gun! The video game came out but it may not have done well. The premise given to us was that the skateboarder should want to get mangled, chewed up, etc. , which is counter-intuitive.

Mike M.: I didn't do original boards on that project, I just messed with other people's boards when there was time. I did a board for the title which has some interesting drawings in it. Mike Fontanelli cleaned it up but he so improved on the original that "cleanup" seems like an understatement. I'll print a couple of those drawings.

Ryan G.: It's simple. A girl is a man with long hair and breasts.

BTW, about speaking to your class...sure, I'd love to. I'm a ham, I admit it! I'll email!

Thanks for watching my cartoon Uncle Eddie! It's nice to hear (or read) a complement on my work that isn't from my friends or parents who say (or lie) that they like everything I do. You have made my night, fella.

Jesse Oliver said...

Hi Eddie

Cool drawings! They look like your take on Tex Avery & Bob Clampett. Are those charaters based on any body?

QUESTION:

Which of the following do you like the most?

1. Laurel & Hardy

2. The Three Stooges

3. Abbott & Costello

"A girl is a man with long hair and breasts."

Truer words were never spoken.

Eddie, I adore your drawing style. You got me out of my 3D rut and started me drawing again...

Eddie,

I'm a man with long hair, and if I was fat I'd have breasts. Am I still a man?

Yours Truly,
C.

p.s. I can't wait for your email!
