and that is why you suck, vincent! wait, vincent doesn't suck. that anonymous post-er sucks, and the president sucks. but vincent waller kicks ass. if you think otherwise, watch 'big baby scam' or 'onward and upward' and then think again!
hey eddie,
i was wondering if any of you spumco guys ( vincent too ) had any insight on to the hybrid drawing style you all created for bakshi's mighty mouse.
it looks like it was drawn really fast, even though i'm sure that's not the case. like, it looks like the construction took time, and then the final inking was done quickly in a sketch fashion.
any particular reason for that and / or the overall movement and look? i noticed a lot of cartoons copying that look ( TINY TOONS and A PUP NAMED SCOOBY DOO among others ) for several years after even though ALL fell short.
Edeeee!! I thought you were getting over your compulsion to post every day or two and be racked by guilt if you don't. Gotta work on that, Bro. Don't burn out!
I'm not dead, I'm just super busy!!!! Man, Christmas is a bear, isn't it?!!! I'll try to post something later today!
I am soooo glad to hear that Eddie!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, yeah this time of year way too busy.
I posted nothing this week as well.
Right there with you Eddie. I'm asking Santa for that cloning machine this christmas.

ReplyDeleteDon't worry about it that much Mr. Fitzgerald. If anyone deserves a break, it's you.
ReplyDeleteOh, God--it's been "later today" for almost 19 hours now! I think Eddie might really be dead this time!
ReplyDeleteHAHA for some reason the photo you decided to represent this entry with is really random and funny.
ReplyDeleteMr. Uncle Eddie:
ReplyDeleteNo problemo, Kid! We will be patiently waiting for the next humorous installment!
I'm so glad that you aren't dead yet. :)
ReplyDeleteBoo: John designed the main, repeating characters on that series and numbers of incidental ones as well, especially on the shows he directed.
ReplyDeleteI'm not aware that he leaned on other directors to use drawings when he offered them, but they were simply too good to refuse.
