Looking at the relevance of the most recent news of Roger Rabbit's right falling back into the hands of author Gary K. Wolf. Here's a series of mock book covers I did based around the original novel, Who Censored Roger Rabbit.
#rogerrabbit #garykwolf #digitalart #fanart #novel #abstractart
I did the original project itself as a revision of my take on a novel accurate Roger Rabbit. I wanted to try to capture the feel of the book given that the general focus of toons were aimed more towards printed/ comic counterparts rather than animated. I wanted to try to give the toons a different edge than compared when it comes to the Disney take on the novel, which became a huge milestone for both animation and film. The covers have always had Roger to be depicted as a Muppet-like creature that coexisted with humans with Eddie Valiant being that contrast. So I wanted to do my best to draw Roger within that regard much similarly to how Marvel had always shown Howard the Duck to be in comparison to the other characters, entities, and creatures that he has encountered. Much like Howard, toons on the original novel are depicted as subcombing any sort of harm those of us with flesh and blood could in reality, with the only exception being if they could generate clones of themselves using all of their mental faculty to do so. I wanted to play around with the colors as I went along by studying flats and watercolor as much as I could. So it would be able to translate once I did my trademark retro print edits. I did my best to especially play around with the lighting in different variations as to include a bright and colorful version that still gave off the grim emotion of the novel. The other, with a much more violet shadowy hue, would also lean more towards the darker nature of the book and give Roger a reluctantly sinister edge to his character. As for the background, I did aim to do an abstract look that encapsulated the general balance between mystery-drama and comedy. So I wanted to study a few works by legendary film poster artist, Saul Bass, who was responsible for posters for many of Alfred Hitchcock's film catalogs. He also was responsible for the '70s take on the Warner Bros. logo, which definitely seems fitting to look at the not quite subtle Looney toons rings. I will have to make that work itself is still a work in progress since I do plan on doing the title and logo along with general formatting. I'm still a little bit shaky about the shattering/cracks in the background. (While they do serve a good purpose to display Roger's cracked mind, I feel like they do add a little bit too much than what I was going for. Still, that is why variations exist after all to give other people a choice of what they personally vibe with.)

Color tests for the cover and book himself, Roger Rabbit! This gave me an opportunity to play around with the hue tones that went with the '80s aesthetic of Who Censored Roger Rabbit while giving it a timeless feel, much like the film.
#rogerrabbit #digitalart #colortones #garykwolf #novelaccurate
Did a full-on ink job of a novel accurate Roger Rabbit from Gary K. Wolf's Who Censored Roger Rabbit. I sort of put it in mind to treat Roger Rabbit as a muppet in a human world as implied from the early book covers. Plus, this also has served as a bit of a headcanon as to how the mind generated doppelgangers would look more like comic strip characters while the "real world" counterparts would probably look much more cartoonishly uncanny. Howard The Duck's comics worked by that logic with the character looking more like a cartoon duck but still can receive injuries, bleed, and die like any other Marvel character. You can definitely tell I took a few cues from Gene Colan, Phil Winslade, and a few EC Comics artists while inking this I'm not as much of a professional when it comes to using color techniques but I did my best to get by. I wanted the flats to look as good as the retro print edits that came down the line. The editing process for this was one of the funnest parts of drawing a good novel accurate Roger. I'm extremely proud of how this came out, even with the white background page contrast giving it an authentic book texture. I guess I'm not as much of a novice at coloring as I thought. Still, I definitely do need to polish my skills with a bit of practice and utilization lol I really do wish that I kept the shadow version of the original flats and making an alternate version that utilized this factor fully

Safety Danc... Bear (Aka Man or Bear, I'd Rather Pick The Bear). I love how these came out fitting with the overall '50s watercoloring aesthetic.

Some 1950s inspired designs done for @bama_bayou_photography for his cause. I honestly love how these came out, especially fitting the overall '50s watercoloring aesthetic. The intention was to satire the old 50s Smokey the Bear posters and graphics along with The Country Bear Jamboree ads from Disney World! I wanted to give a sense of Americana to the piece itself while also flipping it on its head with possibly one of my favorite social memes that have come out in a while.

Get hype with this AWESOME poster my friend @cloudboundcorgi.bsky.social created, featuring a large portion of the core cast! So many murderers to meet... 👀

A digital illustration featuring a large cast of masked (and a few unmasked) characters, each posed with their signature weapons and framed by a splash of red blood. It's badass.

It's National Black Cat Day. I don't have a black cat. I have a one-eyed pirate calico cat named Winky. But there's a black witch cat named Dymphna in the BEASTS OF BURDEN OMNIBUS so I'm going to be tacky and use the occasion to plug the book. Will wait for National One-Eyed Calico Pirate Cat Day.
