I'm also really digging Triumph, keep up the good work.

I am glad you liked them! I thought it would be interesting to have OT Leatherhead since there doesn't seem to be much fanart of him. And Mabel's antics were perfect to put him in a predicament heheh. It is a shame that there isn't more fanart of Triumph either. He has made millions laugh for so long, so I decided to draw him as an anthro and keep his memory alive.

Thanks a million, I love doing expressions! I think it adds a lot of depth, when you can even see a serious or brute like character with an "uh oh" face or huge cheesing smile, etc.

Wow man, these look amazing! I love your style!

Oh, thank you~! I did the icon so long ago. Lol.

But yes, she's my original character. I'm mostly known for posting her in things over on my deviantArt.

You are welcome, well it is still a great icon. You did great work on her design, and alright I will have to check your deviantArt page out too.

After seeing Tiger Claw in action, I just had to practice drawing him some. I already figured he would be one of my favorite characters. Done with reference.

This is an original character I created. His name is Lezar and he is an anti-hero. He has a twin brother who is much more evil though. I always imagined a Keith David type voice for Lezar. Keith David voiced Goliath of Gargoyles and Dr. Facilier from Princess and the Frog.

Here is a drawing of Crazy Legs from "Banjo the Woodpile Cat." The colored one is done more in my own style. The other two are done with reference. Banjo was one of Don Bluth's first works when he left Disney.

This is King Koopa from the "Super Mario Super Show" done in my style.

And here is Gurgi from Disney's "The Black Cauldron." Some are done with reference.

Here we have Brer Wolf from Universal's "The Adventures of Brer Rabbit." Done with reference.

I wanted to draw Louis from Disney's Princess and the Frog and Mickey Mouse more in my own style. I think it turned out well. Louis is done with reference.

Wow. Wicked-awesome work! Love your style, and the expressions are spot-on!

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 03-04-2014, 12:31 AM

Just amazing man, that Grugi looks like it's straight from the Black Cauldron movie (always loved it). Love the colour on Crazy Legs!

Thanks bro! When I draw fan art, I usually use a model sheet or reference from the movie. I am hoping to be able to draw mostly everything straight from my mind or memory one day. But I know I just have to double or triple my practicing, draw from life and drawing without any references.

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 03-05-2014, 06:09 AM

Well tbh it looks like production art done back in the day. I just love it and the Black Cauldron is such an under-rated movie.

That really means a lot. Even with reference, it can still be pretty hard to draw some of these characters. When I first started drawing, I always studied Don Bluth, Disney and Warner Bros so my style is very cartoony.

*BubblyShell22* · 03-05-2014, 04:04 PM

Awesome pics. Loved the Gurgi pic and the Tiger Claw pic the best. Good job. Keep them coming.

Thanks my friend, I always feel so stress free when I am drawing. I will be posting more soon. I want to draw Tiger Claw again.

Jon_Talbain · 03-17-2014, 08:33 PM

Here are a couple of recent drawings I did. Here is my original character Lockjaw with yet another original character of mine, Datson. I wanted to do more expressions for Lockjaw as well as show his size. Lockjaw is 14' 3" and Datson is 5'5", around the size of a human.

And this is my original gator character, Marty E. Gator again. He is usually with Lockjaw and Marty is 16' 11". And while Marty is usually very happy go lucky and oblivious, he does have a serious side. And even though Marty has a childlike IQ, he still realizes his limits at times and wishes he was smarter. He studies hard, but it can be difficult for him. Marty loves kids and he never gives up on his dream to become a teacher. However Lockjaw can be harsh on the poor guy. In the bottom drawing, he is supposed to be frustrated and puffing out his cheeks while concentrating really hard.

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 03-18-2014, 01:36 AM

Been looking forward to this, and it's as awesome as usual

RaphAndDonnie · 03-18-2014, 04:10 AM

Love Lockjaw and Datson. I particular love the size difference between them. You really get the feel that Lockjaw's tall when you put him next to someone really short. Well done.

Great to hear it, thanks. Once I do more work with perspective, backgrounds and different angles, it will be even more drastic on their size difference. "Datson isn't really that short, he is around the size of a human. Well Daton is 5'5. And Marty is even taller than Lockjaw, at 16'11, might as well say 17 feet tall.

Awesome OCs, Jon. I love them and think they're great. You definitely have a great talent.
