My Dumb Dog...

This is my dog Dolce - I didn't draw it here but there's usually little bits of plastic in his poo like an elastic or hair bobble. And he usually pees on his front legs cuz he can't really stand like this. But this is his look - sorta vacant - not really sure where he's looking. Oh, and he has a knuckle in the middle of his tail.

He's my super bat-dog cat-pig thingy.

Axed...

Here's a couple I was in the middle of roughing out for a development project - axed before I got a chance to finish. Never even got to see the light of day...sigh. I love recycling. With a few tweeks I'm sure I'll find a new home for these two swell teens later.

Didn't quite have the style I was shootin' for anyway.

All Clean...

Here's the clean CRUSH for the sculpter. He requested some slight changes. The feet are bigger, legs thicker at the crotch, bolts close to the neck and the fingers into more of a mitten shape. We also made a few color adjustments. We're working with a rough box template for now until we agree on how tall this muthas gunna stand.

Too bad you can't have that cool thick black line on a toy. Oh well, I still think it looks pretty sweet.

Rough Prototype...

Garnet of Carnival Cartoons said he'd hook me up if I was interested in making a toy - well how could I resist. He and Jared just finished their first toy BUZZ and it's top notch quality. We had been wanting to do it for awhile but just needed the nudge. Thanks Garnet.

Here's a rough rotation of CRUSH that will be used for the sculpt. He'll be Neptoon's first independantly produced toy. Hopfully he'll be the first of many that will be made in this series. See my first blog post way back in Sept 2005 to see Cherri, Crush's love interest.

I'll keep you posted on the progress...

Dry Brush No?...

Maybe I just went a bit too heavy?

Somethin' Different...

Enough with Total Drama Island for now...moving on to other things of interest for a bit.

Well here it is, the "Camp TV" promo - or should I say "Total Drama Island".

It was great teaming up with Fresh and Zoom on this promo. Thanks again to everyone involved - your dedication shows.

The writers' summit was great - tons of fun ideas for the series. Can't wait to get started!

Screen Grabs...

Holy Gift Batman...

DANG - what a treat! Burt Ward just sent me his script from the Simpson's episode he was on.

If you take a close look you can even see an original Bart drawn by Matt Groening himself.

Thanks Burt - it was a blast working with you!

Done & Done...

Well we did it! Pumped out a 2 minute promo in two weeks (told ya so).

Thanks to the crew and those of you who went the extra mile and lost many hours sleep - it looks truely wicked and was well received by Teletoon.

Tom and Jen were very proud - and we all look forward to the future of the series.

Next up - the writers' summit. Should be fun.

Here's a few more poses from Joel Trussell and Jared Deal.

OH! Canada...

Now that looks like Canada.

Once Brad Graham worked his magic (as always) we were lucky enough to have Garnet Syberg-Olsen (of Atomic Betty fame) work his color wizardry. Together the two of them made sweet, sweet supernatural Camp TV wonderness.

Stellar Posing...

DAMN! dem some sweet poses!

Joel Trussell is drawing up a storm on Camp TV and shows no signs of slowing down.

Thanks for the hard work on the promo my man.

*KILLER* Shark...

Wicked shark!

This little beauty was designed by the uber talented Jared Deal.

Some real great artist on the show so far...will be posting some of their amazing work so come on back ya hear.
