Cup Doodle: Top 5 All Time Posts by search/visit (5...)

1. The Sunday Girlie (Edco, pre-edit)
No idea why this one kept the top spot since it's original post. Could have something to do with those magical key words... altho I've had other posts with similar (and much better skill!) that are nowhere near the 8000+ views this one has.

2. "Draw Me a Hot Dog!" (Edco)
In case you wonder, the lovely Vicki was the person who originally posed this question to me while attending Wizard World Austin. I've always found its popularity incredibly odd.

3. Anime Pirate Girl Sketch (Lasupaman)
Again, possibly a fine collection of key-wording here.

4. Baby Tinkerbell Tattoo (Edco)
Many of my tattoo posts are popular, but this one is also one of my personal faves.

5. Self Shot (Edco, pre edit)
This one has been steadily climbing the charts, starting from a massive spike after a user popped it into one of his memes on Reddit. It was eventually linked back to Cup Doodle (as True Gentlemen do).

So is Leia a Disney Princess now?

Another Tinkerbell

Merlin Hands

Refernce hands from The Sword in the Stone, by animator Milt Kahl. They're not hard to find online, but incase you've not seen the collection, here's one:



I'm not sure who originally compiled these, but thanks!

Tiana (The Princess and the Frog)

Tink

Heh, this one is from a while ago, but I've never posted it here officially...

She ate Flounder...

I kinda got bored halfway through. So her bottom half looks sped through.

Baby Tinkerbell pencils

Here's the original pencil sketch.

Baby Tinkerbell Tattoo

So I was asked to come up with a "Baby Tinkerbell" tattoo for someone I know, and here's the result. The original request was for her to be a baby in diapers, tho I did want to provide the option of Tinkerbell's traditional costume as well. I wonder which one she'll choose?

Drawn in pencil, but digitally inked in Manga Studio.

Here's a quickie mockup of what it might look like colored on skin:

space Cinderelly

Late again but inked this time - here's my Cinderella. With mice! I've been sitting on it for a couple days hoping to get around to color. Ah well - work consumes me. :)

Cinderella, my take...

Post-dress-distress Cindy

In retrospect she looks like she has a hangover more than anything else. Her head also looks kinda big.

Poor Cindy

Here's my take

Cinderella... ella... ella

Hey folks, we thought it'd be fun to pick a defining image from Cinderella and offer up our own interpretations. Can't wait to see who takes a stab!


The scene is question is where Cinderlla is all ready to go to the ball, but her jealous stepsisters mercilessly rip her homemade dress to shreds.



The original is, of course, timeless, I'm always amazed at the level of technical acumen Disney was achieving in the 40's and 50's. No CG shortcuts in those days, it was all art. In this particular heartbreaking scene, I love the color and change in lighting that occurs to enhance poor Cindy's despair.
