Outhouse (Out-Home?) BG

Just for fun, I took another shot at the Hanna Barbera painting style. This time from my own layout.

HB BG Style Applied

With the studies mentioned in my previous post, I've also taken one of Gene Hazelton's terrific layouts from John K's blog and applied my version of the HB painting style to it.

 P.S. The puddle of ice cream in the original story was supposed to be strawberry, but I changed it to mint. I'm allowed to do that, right?

Milt Gross + Hanna Barbera BG Study 2

Another color version with a few changes. I loosely freehand painted some of the lines, but plan to use an artist bridge going forward to keep them cleaner.

Milt Gross + Hanna Barbera BG Study

Here's my attempt at a Milt Gross drawing mixed with Hanna Barbera style painting from the 50's, ala Bob Gentle and Art Lozzi. This is a little exercise John K posted awhile back that I wanted to try. There are a few sloppy areas and the colors look better in person. I have another color version I'll post soon.
