Update on Deanna’s character
Not to be left behind, I finished the line and color work for Deanna’s character. You’ll notice the spit up on her shirt…which will be a permanant accessory for her. In case you didn’t know, Deanna is a proud new mom. And what’s a mom without a mega-purse…thus the kangaroo. Look for all kinds of [...]
Kate finally gets a character
After patiently waiting for her character to be added to the roster of the Big Green Ape web comic, Kate finally got her’s. As a dancer and girly girl the consencus around the club house was that the flamingo was a pretty good fit.
The Start of Grilling Season

Character Study for @stemkoski
Even those characters that you think would be easy, really aren’t. Here is where I ended up on Ryan’s character. UPDATE: Ryan came dressed in his “uniform” today so I thought I’d show how accurate his character is.
