COAT OF SMILES, parody art of iconic symbols. A duck's hat, a mouse's ears and a smiling yellow button. Three iconic things brought together in one artwork.

Muzzle Flashes

Sorry for the lack of updates and replies! We're terribly busy ('n still terribly far away) so I'm bad about answering e-mails and comments. Below you find two early sketches of some minor characters for the StarDucks project. I hope I can post some coloured/finished pieces, soon.



After all, I'm thinking (and my dear pal Herrera is forcing me :) of doing a sketchbook sometime in the near future. The title should probably read "On Critters, Ducks And Dragons And Sundry Other Things And Hobs".
