I picked a bunch of little monster sketches out of my sketchbook and decided to quickly colour them up for practice. More to come later.

IT’S RAINING SPIDERS

FINALLY, the time has come for a long and overly-detailed post on social behavior in spiders! Today we will learn:

it literally does rain spiders sometimes, sorry

when cruel scientists perform Saw-like experiments on spiders, spiders maintain the moral high ground

HOW CAN YOU HAVE ANY PUDDING IF YOU DON’T EAT YOUR MOM

screwin ya cousins is a viable evolutionary strategy

leg waving is acceptable on ANY occasion

WE ALL KNOW YOU’RE NOT A PEBBLE JIM

deplorable excesses of personality (in spiders)

scientists using VIBRATORS on SPIDERWEBS

happy spider butts (unrelated to the last bullet)

a cricket is better when shared

AND MORE

These are some character designs that I’ve been kickin around for a personal project of mine. Classic monsters that get rad and do sweet skateboarding tricks. Hope you guys enjoy!

tetramera

“Ellywin, accompanied by a foreign girl who’s-name-cannot-be-pronounced, trying to save her older brother from the grasp of two witches through the thick land of the old Wilde and the Wound; home of grotesqueries and gods-of-once-upon-a-time.”

Nope, I haven’t switched over to mythological creatures; this is also supposed to be a crocodile.

I actually didn’t know about this one when I started drawing these! I knew crocs were some of the most varied animals out there, as the artists didn’t have much to go by besides “four legged beast that eats people.” It’s pretty interesting to see how different people interpret that!

This is a collection of gifs that the fine folks at Cartoon Network commissioned me to make recently. It was so much fun playing with the world of Gumball. Ben Bocquelet and Mic Graves have created something really special there. Oh and Jacob Escobedo deserves a shout out too. He’s always pushing for fun stuff at CN HQ.

The first 3 were animated by me and had some clean up help from my buddy Jarrod Prince. The fourth piece was an anim colab with Ben Ommundson (I set up the gag and the design and and he delivered the punchline and finished everything off. It was a fun way to work!)
