Leviathan is a stuffed toy fish with a heath hazard interior structure, I figure his task for you would be to retrieve or make his plush body shape so that he can return to his surface owner and not jab their eyes out at least not immediately

I was also playing with the spine making mouth shapes???

one last picture for fun before I’m amputated from my scanner and tablet :’D
the best part about having characters who can completely disregard the boundaries between different film worlds is everything

a bunch of people suggested I draw myself as a ragdoll but my hair is too feathery and floofy for string or felt
so yeah I’m like a muppet plushy or something, moppet, modpet, whatever
no mouth because I let my drawings do the talking :P

More Nursery character concept fun. Those of you still wondering what this ‘Nursery’ thing is it’s just an idea for a game I had a while back but in a nutshell possessed toys. Everyone loves those right.

I adore characters that have multiple personalities to address who give you different parts of the solution in riddles or obscure ominous messages.

Anonymous asked: how did you create a character who kidnaps a child, who is blatantly rude and callous and ambiguous and in a lot of ways untrustworthy so... likeable? I don't find RGB creepy or sleezy at all and I love him even though he's a cad and I feel like he must be a good person or at least I really want him to be one and I don't understand how? I've seen people invent characters who are cool or mysterious that just come off as 'ew' and boring...

Well, first of all thank you so much for being so kind and loving the character so much :’D but I’m really glad you feel that way, because I really wanted RGB to be a grounding character in the story. You don’t know anything about him, but there is something about him that you immediately empathize with; because he is vulnerable. As weird and enigmatic as he is, I’ve wanted from the start to portray someone who is terribly insecure, someone flawed and lost but who is trying to cover that fact up. He’s someone who can be hurt, has been hurt, and is afraid of being hurt. In a lot of ways RGB is one of the most human characters I’ve ever made.

wanted to draw at least one thing for fun before going to bed so here’s another ‘Nursery’ character
this sawdust-stuffed doll is known only as the Keeper of Eyes, but creepy titles aside he’s one heck of a dancer

Hello! Your friendly neighbourhood storyboarder cartoonist bod here.

I have lots of lovely people asking how I draw and what magical voodoo secrets I have that make me able to draw things without making mistakes. Well, I make mistakes. There is no secret, but if there is one, that is the secret. I draw something, think it’s rubbish, and try again. Or I draw a thing, decide it isn’t right, and then try to draw it another way! Or leave it and do something else I have to do, and come back to it with a new perspective!

Your first drawing is almost never going to be the best one, so don’t expect it to be. The thing is nobody is going to make the best version of something without warming up for it; you wouldn’t run a marathon without stretching, would you? In this case it isn’t a serious picture and I’m not probably going to take it any further, but even so you can see how the second pass is better than the first, even if it’s still not perfect. The random scribble was a warm up, the next was a rehearsal, an attempt at the idea without expecting anything great; the third drawing is what I’d call my first real hack at it. You need groundwork to build off!

Another big thing that I wish more people taught artists is not to bully yourself. If you draw something that isn’t perfect, then berate yourself for making something ‘crappy’ to the point that you don’t want to draw any more, then you’ve just bullied yourself! You’re allowed to be mad at the drawing for while. Think that it’s crappy or wonky or not right, that’s fine, but don’t only think that about it, or yourself! You have to learn to love yourself, and your work; demonstrate that you love it by trying again, by looking at your mistakes and analyzing them. You need to give yourself time to do that.

Treat yourself and your work like you would a friend or an employee- don’t smack it over the head with a ruler and tell it to sit in the corner! Of course you won’t want to draw again if you do that! Who wants to be yelled at for trying? Be a good boss! Be encouraging, be kind, and be patient with yourself. Be critical by all means, but don’t just criticize. Recognize the good points in your work, as well as the bad, then you’ll know which areas to fix and which areas to push even further. Accepting your faults is very important, but you shouldn’t ignore the good areas in order to do that- you’ll be missing half of the information to be gained from the exercise.

You’re a sentient, emotional person! Treat yourself like one.
