My design and turnaround of Pickle Rick. Color By Corey Booth...its been a really weird experience for me to see a drawing I did become meme’d to oblivion. It was hard to design tho...So I’m proud

Here it IS!!!  Our RPG CREW all set into their little scene,  This was the art we produced for the RPG Episode of BAM Animation!  I made the background,  Max drew the characters,  and Brianne painted the whole thing!  you guys killed it!!  here is the episode if you want to watch!

My character design of ‘Conroy’ from “The Rickshank Rickdemption”…I don't usually design robots so this was a challenge. I'm happy with how it turned out tho. @brent_noll made a 3D model of the final design that helped a ton... Art direction: Jeffrey M. Thompson - Color direction: Jason Boesch - Color by Corey Booth

My character design of the "Smoog Light Runner" from "The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy"

Another Alien Prisoner from "The Rickshank Rickdemption" Color by Corey Booth and Eric Omega.

Some Alien Prisoners from “The Rickshank Redemption”…The aliens on Rick and Morty have a few design theories: Use Fish, Lizards, microscopic bacteria, and 80’s practical effects (like ‘the thing’) for reference…try to avoid the “lilo and stitch” effect where everything is a super appealing mammalian creature. Color by Corey Booth and Eric Omega.

My character design of “Tiny Customer Service Reps” from “The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy"….Pickle for scale :)

Art direction: Jeffrey M. Thompson

Some designs we did of the "Boss Rat" from "Pickle Rick".... Character Design was collabed with me /Justin Noel and special pose with me/Simon Estrada. Turned out awesome! More anatomically correct cartoon violence please.

My character design of “Gunk Rick and Morty” from “"Rest and Ricklaxation"….Pretty easy assignment! Just Booger Rick and Morty.

Art direction: Jeffrey M. Thompson

My character design of “Risotto Groupon” from “The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy"....The writers were looking for an 80′s plushie vibe like Care Bears...but gigantic and fucked up.

Art direction: Jeffrey M. Thompson

My character design of “Risoto's Tentacled Henchman” from “The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy"....I was going for an Alien version of a Bond villain henchman. I think I got it.

Art direction: Jeffrey M. Thompson

My character design of “Native Alien Race” from “The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy"....The writers were looking for an 80′s plushie vibe like Care Bears. These are early sketches.
