Thanks Mike!
Simon Sherry
Great work man – love the speaker eyes in particular – he’d make a great kid sidekick to someone I know ;o)
Damien Mason
replied
And what an awesome team they would make. Who wouldn’t want to see that concert? ;)

Thanks Scotty!
Pip Gerard
I love how the guitar is nearly bigger than him! so very cool.
Damien Mason
replied
Thanks Pip, yeah, I thought that would help make it clearly a little kid. I used a reference image for the guitar too, because I don’t really know what electric guitars look like :)
George Ujvary
That is spool cool Damian.
Well done.
I hope you, wife and child are all well
Regards

Cheers Rajee, I’m going to need a lot of luck to beat the awesome entries in the comp. Still, I’m happy that I’ve done something as best I could and that’s all I can do

Is there a flash cartoon to go with this character? :P reminds me of one is all lol cool work
Damien Mason

Heh, I should do an animation with him.. I haven’t animated anything longer than 10 seconds in quite a while.

RevolutionGFX
So you do do flash? cool, this just made me think you know how to do all the right shapes for flash style lol
Damien Mason
replied
Yeah, my main job is Flash apps and the like. I actually draw these tees up in flash too, I like the solid inky style you can get with the brush tool and a wacom tablet. I’ll use Illustrator at times as well, but I prefer the randomness to line weights you can get with Flash.
RevolutionGFX
Ah ok, I played with flash once, bit over my head :P well I’m sure I could get better I was just lazy lol, just watching flash toons like “Foamy” and stuff on “newgrounds.com”, good stuff, wish I could do one myself :), anyways good luck in the comp I bet this will be top 20.
