Above
is a color scan of the finished limited cartoon cel which Skeeter is donating
to the Northeast Ursamen's silent auction to benefit the Visiting Nurse's
Association. The image you see here contains two layers: an acrylic
painting on clear acetate and a gouache painting on illustration board.
The final package to be auctioned will be matted and framed. A certificate
of authenticity will accompany the item. This is a one-of-a-kind
cel, and at this time is the only one made. The cel may be produced
in limited quantities after the auction, but no two will be alike as they
are hand drawn and painted. The cel features old and new characters
from the cartoon series, "Hairyer Parts". From left are Butch, Ben,
Bear, Bob, and Dave #46. For your chance to own the original, come
out to the Hob Nob on April 6th - click here
for details!
The original color preview
which was previously displayed on this page is shown below. The preview
was digitally colored as a color-guide for the painting process.
Note that Bob has been improved with more body hair, per request of a rabid
fan. Note also the change from a gradient background to the boy's favorite
hangout, the Barrel Block Saloon. Coming soon: images of how the cel was
made!
