The Cartoonist

The other day when I was hanging out with a fantastic DMA friend here on campus and geeking out over comic books and their art, said friend introduced me to a man by the name of Skottie Young.

Something that I love about Mr. Young's art was the whimsical feel that they have. If you took Tim Burton, Dr. Seuss, and threw in a hint of manga, you would end up with a style similar to that of Skottie Young.





Since character design is kind of what I want to do with my life, I had so much fun looking at his designs and trying to learn from them. I've done some based off of his style, but none of them are as great, obviously. You should love his work, too, because it makes you think differently about what you thought you already knew.
