Here’s a sketch for a new character that I have a few plans for. Surely the sight of this fluffy monstrosity stomping down the streets of the city would cause widespread panic… pandemonium, even!
‘Rilla 2

‘Rilla wants to be your valentine! The Dude has been a huge fan of gorillas lately. I have to chase him around the house – dragging my knuckles, making gorillla sounds, beating my chest, etc – at least once a day lately, so there had to be a gorilla on his Valentine’s Day card for his buddies and grandparents.
I’m pretty happy with the way that it turned out, but I’m definitely still partial to the one that my son and I collaborated on. he loves the Wacom tablet…

I came across this one while going through some old sketchbooks. I was doing a lot of tattoo-ish designs and doodles for a while there. This one looks like some kind of mashed up hybrid of Pacific NW and Mayan imagery… or something along those lines, anyway.

I’ve had 1992 stuck in my head ever since sketching this guy. I’m definitely gonna have to dig the album out at some point this weekend.
