Sketch-a-Day 81/365: Spaaaaace Ghoooost!

Another DSC from Outcast Studios this week; wow, that's like three I've done. I think its a new record. Friday's challenge was to draw our beloved space faring superhero from the 60's, SPACE GHOST.

Sketch-a-Day 79/365: Isn't it Delightful?

Sketch challenge issued of drawing Marvin the Martian. Challenge accepted, though I have to admit there was some HEAVY referencing involved. Cartooning has always eluded my grasp any other way. I don't hate it...it's just not my thing.

Sketch-a-Day 77/365: Ad Infinitum et Ultra

Fresh out of 80's Week and once again turning to Outcast Studios for their Daily Sketch Challenge offering. Monday's challenge is that of the the fearless Space Ranger himself, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command!

Sketch-a-Day 76/365: Warrior Goddess

Bringing 80's Week to a close here on The Sketch Side; hailing all the way from Eternia, comes the Warrior Goddess herself, Teela. I don't think there's much else that needs to be said about this Captain of the Royal Guard. I hope you enjoyed this week long flashback as much as I did!

Happy Birthday, Ava!

A special Sunday bonus sketch for a birthday request. Little Miss Ava asked for a butterfly and flowers for her birthday and since I couldn't find anything 80's themed with butterflies she gets a sketch dedicated just for her! Happy 5th birthday little lady!

Sketch-a-Day 75/365: Give Me the Might!

"Moonstar of Limbo, Give me the might, the muscle, the menace, of MON*STAR!"

Today's sketch is brought to you by the Moonstar of Limbo and features Mon*Star, the main antagonist from Silverhawks. Silverhawks was on the air for all of 3 months in 1986 and also had a comic book series that lasted a whopping 7 issues!

Sketch-a-Day 74/365: Hooooooooo!

Thunder. Thunder. ThunderCats! HOOOOOOOOOO! This awesome 80's property was revived in comic book form in 2000 and again as a second animated series in 2012 making it, in my most humble of opinions, THE flagship property of the 80's. "But what about G.I. Joe", you ask? Granted the Joe's have endured much longer and more successfully than the Cats with SEVERAL revivals, however I don't consider the Joe's an 80's property. Granted their pop culture popularity stems from the Real American Hero property line, however G.I. Joe is actually a product of the 60's with the 80's cartoon and toy line being a revival from that. Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.

Getting back to the ThunderCats... today's sketch is of the original nunchaku wielding bad-ass himself...Panthro! Hope you enjoy!

Sketch-a-Day 73/365: D'Compose

Hailing from the freakiest kid's show of the 80's comes D'Compose from Inhumanoids. The best part of the 80's is the total lack of caring towards any consistency. I've seen D'Compose sporting anywhere from 4 to 6 taloned digits on his hands in the cartoon and comic, yet the toy appears to only have 3 thick claws. I think the only constant required was the exposed rib-cage and skull like head.

Sketch-a-Day 72/365: Razorback

The 80's Throwback just keeps rolling on with today's sketch of Razorback from the cartoon (and brief comic book) Spiral Zone! While the show lasted all of three months it was possibly one of my top favorites to watch because the vehicles were just beyond cool. I've always wanted a monocycle solely because of this show. The Black Widows (i.e. bad guys) had some pretty freakishly sweet modes of transportation too. Ah memories... but I digress, let's get on to the sketch!

Sketch-a-Day 52/365: Professor Chaos

Tonight I went with the Outcast Studios Daily Sketch Challenge of South Park's Professor Chaos!

Sketch-a-Day 51/365: Be the Pencil, You Must.

Some of you may get this right away, most of you probably won't, so I'll explain. 

I was just sitting there reminiscing tonight about the days of old and remembered an idea I had once that I sketched out but don't recall if I ever shared it. Back in the old message board days my usual hangout was the Digital Webbing Forums where I became familiar with many wonderful people; you all know who you are. Well, at one point we were making quick re-imagings of each other based primarily off nothing more than our screen names and a good time was had by all. Tonight's sketch is a throwback to that period of time with the subject being none other than our own resident JediPencil. These days you'd know her as the awesome Ingrid K. Hardy of Rabid Horse Artwork and this is her re-imaging that she never got to have.

Sketch-a-Day 38/365: Witch Hazel

Today's daily sketch topic is brought to you once again by Outcast Studios Daily Sketch Challenge. Keeping with the witch theme this week the challenge was to draw Witch Hazel of Looney Tunes fame. I'm kind of undecided on how I feel about this one. Oh well, tomorrow is another day and another sketch :)
