Battle of the Barneys

I hope our taskmaster doesn't mind that in preparing my submission for the latest blog assignment, I broadened the scope of it a tad by reaching outside the Flintstone and Simpson families for combatants. I didn't reach far, mind you; I chose the best friends of the families' patriarchs to face one another in battle. Yes, I have pitted Barney Rubble, Fred's bosom buddy, against Barney Gumble, Homer's devoted drinking partner. The two men have issued dares to each other and taken them without hesitation. Barney G dared Barney R to drink an entire keg of beer without puking or going unconscious, and Barney R dared Barney G to eat an entire brontosaurus leg. The results are apparent in the picture below:



I don't think there'll be much honking of horns in either Springfield or Bedrock tonight.

lol for comments please sighn up to be a google bitch by getting an account with them.

Cancer can be beaten -- into material for comedy

No Flintstones-Simpsons showdown yet (it's coming! really!), but I do have a link to this article from Britain's Guardian, in which the author, an animator and writer for TV, suggests that the field of taboos for comic treatment is not nearly as wide as some bluenoses suggest.

Cant mess wit it

heyall, ive tried doing a variety of troglodyte sketches and every time i finished an idea it kept getting defeated by the original concept image that i had in my head, so with every idea being trampled by the awsome original, i drew a tribute to the best there is.

so here again is the one and only Troglodyte






Troglodyte Attack !

Deadly ... Roaster and troglodyte! Get it ? Neither do I !

A page right out of history

Ah. Troglodytes. Okay. Here's my first pass at drawing your average Stone Age cave-dweller:



Then, thinking that perhaps this character was too elaborate for economical animation on a weekly series for YTV, I came up with this one:



Next, not wishing to let my first caveman feel abandoned because I thought him unfit for TV, I created a mate for him:



(I probably need to remind him that this is the best that nature can provide during his particular geological epoch, and that it'll be millions of years before Angelina Jolie appears on the scene, so he better make do with what he can get, or there won't be any cartoonists to provide him with so much as an anteater for a companion, let alone a pouty-lipped sex bomb in latex.)
