Best Of 2024 Drawings

 

This year is almost close to the end and I am finally going to show you some of my best art from 2024 including new recent ones.

FUN FACT

Spoiled Brat was immediately born on January 1st 2024. This is the first drawing. 

Mike The Dog Series

 

This is my proudest achieving character I made. A dog. Mike The Dog.

Mike is a dog with steal, he rarely feels weak and is always up for a bone.

When making these cartoons I want them to be similar to the Pluto cartoons in classic disney days. They weren't anything special but they were interesting and it did inspire me to make cartoons like this. It's kinda easy. 

What the Pluto cartoons didn't have enough of is well, funny stuff going on in the shorts. I'm not expecting anything funny all the time but I think the Pluto cartoons weren't the highest effort of trying to gain humor. I would say Cold Storage (1950) was the one that gotten the most impact outta me.

I'm not saying these cartoons are all bad. I do think almost all of them are watchable and entertaining.

They had some good ideas with these cartoons like Pluto going to the zoo, singing like Sinatra, sleepwalking etc.

They also have some solid theatrical posters, so that's a plus.

I definitely wanted to make the Mike cartoons like this. Have some unique plots and make it zany and fast.

(sometimes The Worm Turns (1937) levels of fast)

List of Mike The Dog shorts

Duty Dog - Mike The Dog goes to pet camp and becomes the guard dog and completes responsibilities. However, when he sleeps he suddenly sees a southern mosquito landing on his back, biting him violently and gets suspended at the camp for causing a mess.

Lantern Dog - Mike explores a picnic table outside with lanterns. He messes around with them and gets into alot of chaos. People notice his mess and decides to put up a Chinese New Year celebration. 

The Dognapper - Mike searches for a bone until he gets kidnapped by the one and only Ox Fisher. 

Mike And The Martians - In a similar vain to Jumpin' Jupiter (1955), Mike sleeps in his normal doghouse until he is sent in space by martians with a UFO and wakes up in Mars.

The Piano Lesson - Mike sees himself living normal with his pet owner. The pet owner gets a piano sent to his house. He however has plans outside. So while on that, Mike tests and practices playing the instrument. He then seeks an annoying grasshopper ruining his lesson and causes chaos making the pet owner mad.

Mike The Mutineer - Mike gets hired in the pirate's ship but however causes alot of messes in the area making the ship almost sink, but not entirely as Mike saves the day.

Spinning The Wheel - On Valentine's Day, Mike goes out of town to go to an amusement park, he plans to go on the Tunnel of Love, but says "No Pets Allowed" in fact all the rides say no dogs allowed except for the spinning wheel. 

Mike will be an interesting character in the Artmania series. And he will definitely have a solid impact giving that silent characters are becoming more popular nowadays. 

Merry Christmas! 🎄

Merry Christmas to all the people who have been reading my blog since late August. I certainly had a mixed year myself, but I'm willing to talk about it in a few days.

I have got alot of cool stuff today so I'm willing to send you pictures.

Enjoy! 🎄 

I wash my hands all the time so I got soap. 

Every Christmas Eve, I usually get one present, so this year, I got a DVD.

I had a Looney Tunes Calendar for 2024, now it's Disney in 2025.

Speaking of Disney, I got the best types of books, the ultimate visual guides. Looney Tunes has this, and it is awesome.

The 70s were interesting for cartoons that's for sure. The Jetsons and Yogi Bear weren't that popular in the 70s though. Don't know why there here. 

Team Umizoomi was my childhood and I should have had a plush toy of a character I grew up with.

These are interesting. I first seen these within advertisements on Facebook and they looked so cute and my style that I wanted to buy them.

They're called TinyShinyHineys. 

Apparently when I looked into them, they have these gold shiny butts on their back. Okay then....

But who cares? I liked their designs and they felt like mystery minis so what I got were interesting, they got cards as well.

This book is fantastic. It has the looks behind Disney animation. I love everything about Classic Disney's animation style. I adore stuff like Snow White, Ichabod and Mr. Toad, and the Three Caballeros. So this is going to be fun to check out in the future.

I also got vintage books and those are always amazing. Mickey and The Magic Cloak in particular feels inspiring.

I also have to think the Pinocchio one is like what the movie is so I gotta see if I want to watch the movie first or read the book.

I got a shirt of my favorite animated characters.

I finally got it.

I always wanted this book for so long. This is important and I'm so happy because the pages are really fun to look at.

And after all that gift wrapping, I watched a little bit of the Abbott And Costello Christmas Show. 

It was very funny. It was so cool to see The Nicholas Brothers in this.

I hope you all had a fantastic christmas, I was waiting for it for so long and here we are. 

I will see you all next time, we're back to normal until New Years Eve starts.
