Sketch round-up: Dapper Animals

Hey guys! I've been behind on my sketches and I'm trying to catch up. So for the moment, here're some Dapper Animals I drew!

Polar Bear and a Warthog!

Brother Rabbit and Acquaintances

Finally got to finish the comic I started Friday. This month I wanted to do some comics dedicated to Brother Rabbit(even though the month is half over)! It'll give me a chance to focus more on my storytelling and my backgrounds. Also, I'm going to try out the Monday-Wednesday-Friday comic schedule, so Wednesday is going to be my big 150th comic celebration! Wooo!

The return of Brother Coon

It's the return of Brother Coon! I really want to bring these guys back because I love the style and creepiness, but I'm totally lost as to what the story should be.

Oh and if you're completely lost as to who this is, you should check out these four comics!

the rabbit and the raccoon

y'know, these were originally people, but then I realized I had to draw faces, so they turned into a rabbit and a raccoon. I have to admit, I rather enjoyed drawing a raccoon in a pettycoat. I don't know why I like putting cartoonized animals in fancy clothes.

Brother Rabbit and Brother Coon Part 4

Here's the startling conclusion! I rather enjoyed this exercise. This page I don't think is as good as the previous ones, but I like the grid of panels with similar but progressively changing shots.

Overall, I noticed that I had a pattern of doing a grid of panels, then a borderless splash at the bottom. I'm not sure if that's good for creating a pattern or bad for being not so original.

Y'know, looking at the story, you'd think that if there were "hundreds" of frogs down there, they'd have the smarts to gang up and tackle him or something. Hmmmmm. maybe this needs an extra page. Perhaps if I'm not too busy and can't think of anything else to draw tomorrow.

Brother Rabbit and Brother Coon Part 3

Here's part 3 of the epic tale of Brother Rabbit and Brother Coon. I'm not sure how well the last three panels with the frogs digging the sand away from Brother Coon's body work, but I think panel three of the frogs with Brother Coon's body in the background is my favorite panel in the series. I also really like Brother Coon being entirely blacked out except for the mouth, I'd like to think that's how the frogs view him.

Brother Rabbit and Brother Coon Part 2

Here's part 2 of "Brother Rabbit, Brother Coon, and the Frogs." I have to say I really really like this. It took a little longer than most daily comics, but I really enjoyed trying to make the visuals as creepy as possible. Although sometimes I think it turns out cute. Curses.

Oh well. Happy Weekend!

Brother Rabbit and Brother Coon Part 1

I know I haven't put up a comic in a couple of days, but that's only because I've been working on this! It's based on a homework assignment I found in the book "Drawing Words and Writing Pictures" (which is very informative on creating comics). The assignment is to create a comic based on the old African American folktale "Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Coon, and the frogs." So obviously, I tried to make it look as creepy as possible. This is part 1 of a 4 part mini series. So hopefully I'll have the next one up by tomorrow and the next 2 by next week.

Hooray!
