Monday Morning Inspiration
It became extremly hot, nearly 39°C or 102,2°F, my drawing desk is nearly boiling and my Wacom's melting away. I should copy Batgirl Yvonne Craig's counteraction, see right below... (via Pour 15 minutes d'amour)

Cartoonish Dromedary Sculpt
A couple of months ago, we were invited to give a talk (by the agency of my uber-talented buddy Alex Orrelle) at the smashing Tel Aviv based Animation College. During our stay, while an evening walk in a shopping arcade, I stumbled across this beautifully crafted dromedary sculpt. 'Love this sort of cartoonish style to it.

Wonder Women (ca. 1979)
During my current research work on colour references for "John Starduck" (Tigobo Animation Studios) I stumbled upon this lovely production still from the late 1970s, showing Wonder Woman Lynda Carter and her stunt double Jeannie Epper. Again, great colours...
Reference Piece
Another great production still from the 1970s, Richard Chamberlain in Peter Weir's "The Last Wave" (1977).
Bionic Woman: Reference
This is both a great production photo (showing Lindsay Wagner in "The Bionic Woman" sometime in the 1970s) and a lovely colour, style and gadget reference for John Starduck. Love the backbag radio!

It's Not Me, It's Chris Sasaki
Recently, I got a bunch of mails and comments concerning a character with orange beak and horns in Pixar's Monsters University and if I probably was the designer of this very character. Unfortunately, I was not, it was the supernaturally gifted Chris Sasaki.
This here below is BTW a rough design of mine which I created a couple of years ago in connection with some development work for Red Bull. I did lots of such "peckers with horns" characters that time, they can easily mistaken for the character from Monsters, I guess.
