Modern Cartoons I Love Part 2: The Mighty B!

Posted by bradwick on August 5, 2009

Oh man, I love this show! This in my eyes is a perfect cartoon. It has really funny specific characters, great voice talent (Amy Poehler!), and every background looks like it should be in a gallery behind glass. Everyone involved is amazing ( Seonna Hong, Bill Wray, and again Amy Poehler). Plus it’s got the added bonus of being one of two shows ever to have a girl character engage in hilarious slapstick. Other than Olvie Oyl I can’t think of any other “slapsticky” girls in the world of cartoons. I wish that Nickelodeon would play this half as much as they play Sponge Bob.

Here are the pencils:

Again, This was the first time drawing the characters, and sadly I had no model sheets to go by. I Drew this the same day I drew the flapjack one so I still had no pens, so I opted for the brush. I drew all the background stuff in photoshop and recycled those same textures that I used for the flapjack drawing. I would have loved to really spent some serious time on the backgrounds, but I only had 2 days to do 4 illustrations (I’m full of excuses).

Thanks for reading and be back next week for sponge bob!
