here are two old drawings (~2013 maybe?) of my characters doobie and budzo. these pictures weren’t meant to go together when i drew them but they really do go together quite well! they’re the resident stoner idiots, sort of the jay and silent bob of the las carnitas universe, but doobie wasn’t always that way. when he was a kid he was super nervous and high-strung all the time and found budzo, a louisiana sloughdevil (a sort of cryptid within this universe) as a tadpole when he was in his early teens. over the next few years a combination of newfound friendship and prolonged exposure to the psychoactive vapors that steadily waft from budzo’s pores would cause doobie’s productivity, academic performance, and quality of living to plummet, but his overall level of happiness and contentment to skyrocket. his life is a mess, but he doesn’t really seem to mind at all as long as he can keep chilling with his cryptid buddy.
