Getting closer to Joe Barbera!
Time to throw some Hanna Barbera in the BG and rock this Hanna Barbarian out!

Here’s an Original Cartoon Heroes sketch study of Joe Barbera of Hanna Barbera. It’s been tough trying to capture his likeness, as this one can attest to.
Close, but no cigar Janovsky.
Back to the drawing board!

How does she curl her hair like that?
Not for nuthin’, but this Betty Boop I did up is HOT. I can’t wait to reveal her fully.

Testing out the new Tumblr photoset layouts w/ some great cartoon research books I’m using for my Original Cartoon Heroes tribute project.
Check out the inside of Bill Hanna’s A Cast of Friends… It’s personally signed by him! That made me sad when I picked up the book fom my local library. :(
Tex Avery: King of Cartoons was a doozy to get into my hands. But thankfully, Fred scored me a copy. Thanks Fred!

Doing research on Tex Avery for Original Cartoon Heroes, and I cannot for the life of me find any good photos of him online. Too small, or he’s looking away from the camera. I even tried my local library branch, but the 2 books I needed are in Reference and not available for check out. Bummed!
Luckily, Fred is ordering me the books off of Amazon! Thanks Fred! :)
In the meantime, here are a few studies of Tex I did.
