Rankin Bass Draw 20 (Day 19) - Jingle and Jangle

I know including two characters as one is a bit cheating (and I even snuck in the Head Elf from Rudolph), but I figured these two would share one brain cell, so it probably wouldn't count.

I imagine, if the various specials of Rankin Bass were merged together more seamlessly, Jingle and Jangle would be the bumbling assistants to the Head Elf from Rudolph. That would make Jingle's title as "Number 1 Elf" make more sense and why his uniform would be so different from the regular toy elves like Hermy.

And it would make Elf Practice even more MANDATORY!

Rankin Bass Draw 20 (Days 16) - Bumble

Oh Bumble, what are we gonna do with you.

Also, a slightly intentional callback to the 1989 Rudolph VHS which is the version I would watch at my grandparents' house when I was little: https://vhscollector.com/movie/rudolph-red-nosed-reindeer-0

Rankin Bass Draw 20 (Day 11) - Jack Frost

Personally, more of a fan of the anti-hero Jack Frost from Frosty’s Winter Wonderland than the 1979 heroic version.

We are now at the second Winter themed Rankin Bass character (not counting Frosty). You’re going to be seeing a lot of those soon.

Rankin Bass Draw 20 [Days 8] - Yukon Cornelius

It was at that point they met Yukon Cornelius, Scallywag of the North

And his assortment of mixed-matched sled dogs.

Rankin Bass Draw 20 (Day 20) - Mother Nature

Lovely lady that Mother Nature. Had a wonderful time over designing this outfit.

And that's it. Thank you for following along. I'm glad I was able to stay consistent on these. I want to try and do more of these Draw 20 series in the future, maybe not to this scale though.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Rankin Bass Draw 20 (Day 18) - Father Time

Time marches on for us all.

Admittedly I'm starting to get worn down by this challenge to draw 20 characters. I'm not sure I'm giving my 100% to the last few. That's why I stopped at 20 instead of going all the way to Christmas or the end of the month. Still got two more to go and I'm really excited about these last two (though one of them's a cheat bit of a cheat to this challenge).

Rankin Bass Draw 20 [Day 3] - Frosty the Snowman

I think the pipe is just aesthetic. Otherwise, wouldn't he melt his mouth if he was smoking.
