Tabbitha & Courtney, The Witches from COTC, drew some headcanon concepts of them thru the years, a rehash of some old Tabby ideas @halfglovepunch & I were playing around w/ years ago when we were like... Hey, could she have multiple outfits? Last pic is the old sketches, and 4th design of Tabby is based off a sketch of Ben's. And of course I had to add my takes on Courtney!

I like to think Tabby leans more goth/industrial and Courtney is more punk, but they listen like to things like Smashing Pumpkins together. Courtney is more laid back but still passionate about music, but she also sings Tabby Beck songs to piss her off.

It's my birthday! But I'm also looking for work in a couple months! My time as director on the Craig of the Creek show/movie is coming to an end, and so does my beautiful time at CN (I will stay if I can, haha)

I've got 10 years experience in animation, working on various Canadian productions such as MLP:FiM, to CN's Adventure Time and more recently Craig of the Creek. I've worked all sorts of jobs in the animation pipeline, from design to boards/writing, and directing! I love directing! I've got a dang good eye, I'm damn funny, I enjoy being apart of the whole process, and I want to keep making cartoons. I'm passionate!!

Comedy is my forte, but I do love sweet moments and a lil action! I included some board panel examples of some shots I liked from past Craig boards. TV or Feature, I'm your gal.

Back when things were finishing up with Adventure Time, I got to take a Character Design Test for Summer Camp Island! Here’s part of what I submitted! I had a lot of fun drawing in the style, making up campers and little monsters. Finally got to sit down and watch it, and it’s a sweet treat!

& A proposed special intro to the episode that got cut for time. Basically a homage to The Horse Whisperer, haha.

Today’s new Craig Of The Creek episode, The Curse, sees the debut of two new characters the witches of the creek, Courtney and Tabitha. These are some character concept sketches I did when we were coming up with the look of the witches, and then the final product.

My sketches... haha, yeesh. Well at least the last one was a more cleaned up, concise idea of what I was thinking for the two, that I then handed over to our designers, Ben and Danny, who worked their magic into the final product.

I had a sense of them pretty quickly as you can see in the middle in the first page of sketches! Love these two from the bottom of my widdle goth teen heart.

CotC - The Final Book

The first episode that I boarded on for Craig of the Creek premiered on TV and the Cartoon Network App this Saturday! I hope you all were able to catch it and the other batch of episodes! Six in total! Geez!

Here’s some things I think I’m allowed to share from my first episode:

I got the opportunity to create and design some characters, the Horse Girls, and they ended up in this episode!

This is first drawing/ideas I had for them, they sort of wrote themselves, I was so stoked, haha. The write-ups are no longer canon, but some elements have stayed.

I also got to submit and idea for a scrappy scooter kid:

I wanted a little rat tail girl, and our designers went and made her cuter and scrappier than I could have hoped for. Unfortunately her “FART” helmet sticker had to go, haha.

Also for boards, this was my first time boarding in Storyboard Pro and on the show so it... was a learning experience, but here are a few panels I still like:

And finally, I tried to put a DOOM poster in Craig’s bedroom, even though I knew that his room was already designed... haha. It didn’t make it, haha.

Blenanas concept art by storyboard revisionist Charmaine Verhagen

Just a little outfit concept I did while I was cleaning up Blenanas. Her outfit was based off of one of Ako Castuera’s outfits, cuz she has the best style.
