cute\\grotesque

Lately I've been interested in the juxtaposition of cute and grotesque. The rad pizza dude was a lot of fun to draw. I also enjoyed drawing the little blob guy's expression. It took me a while to find a coloring method and palette that I liked, but I think this look fits it pretty well.

Pokemon Kid Gross Up

Here's a screenshot of a gross up shot of the Pokemon Kid right after he sees the Oddishes run by and realizes he's passed into the realm of Pokeland. I wasn't entirely sold on the real throat, but it grew on me pretty quickly. I like the extra creep factor it adds. And it's pretty gross.

Pokemon Kid Scene

Here's a finished shot from my Pokémon Kid Animation that I'm putting together in my free time. This shot takes place right after the kid wakes up to find himself in Pokéland. Is that real? I don't remember it being called Pokéland. Well it is now.

More Freelance Screenshots

Here are a few screenshots from a previous freelance short that Ben and I made.
