Secondly, on Eddie Fitzgerald's Theory blog, he talks about his theory of 'woman are just men with long hair and boobs'. Supported with some amazing examples of hilarious cartooning. Don Martin and Milt Gross to be exact.
So tonight I watched England and Hungary play a friendly pre-World Cup match and decided to plop myself in front of my tv and draw some girls. Here are a few of them, with some self indulgent grey-tones.... well, actually, I think the drawing's themselves are pretty self indulgent. They're not quite as sensitive as I would have liked, nor do they really illustrate any idea or emotion. Oh well.
These are much more in the Fred Moore school of drawing versus the Milt Gross. I think I'll sit down tomorrow and try to grow some balls and do something funny.
Hope ya dig.
...and go buy the Venture Bros Season 1 boxed set.

Hey! Those are adorable! I love your design.
...and thanks for the blurb, too!
THese characters are so squashy, reminded me of the classic toon style!! Love the design!
i love those legs. great drawings!
I love how the gals are always doing something specifically different. Though they're usually naked or doing something domestic. You misogynist.
ah, sweet.
ANYTHING inspired by Freddie Moore
is COOL with me. ;)
Great work, man.

Lovin your cute girly drwings and your barbarian set! Keep em comin Philabusta!
You have great knockers! I really like the style.
Where's the line of action? The construction? The negative spaces need to be expand-a-lized! WWJKD (What Would John K. Do)? Did you even consider that before you started? No wonder Amid Amidi took you off of his prized "recommended links" list! That guy doesn't even draw and yet everyone values his opinions on design and animation!
P.S. you also need to make your girls naked-er. It's lonely here in France.
Ha! Your French friend is a scamp! ; )
OK, I'm back again...update--put up more girls, man! I love love love those last two esp.
Your post makes me think that a Moore-inspired show a la the 8-bit or Disney-inspired things lately would be a good idea...perhaps not 'officially' but simply everyone posting their own girls(if they're not already).
There's something that comes out of artists with girl drawings that isn't evidenced elsewhere...i.e. Bruce Timm's and Ronnie del Carmen; they're both killer artists, but imho their women drawings just take their skills to another level(and with guys like that, that's saying something). That whole Batman crew used to go downstairs to a bar after work and get drunk and draw--or try to outdraw each other; I've got copies of those somewhere. Incredible stuff.
Lovely little girls!
Draw moore of those caracthers!
Very nice Phil. I love your legs...well not your legs but the ones you draw.
Nice work phil! Very cut indeed!!:)
I like the chubby legs
Hollar at your boy one day NY is great right now BTW.
