Autumn Society Tribute (20): Alex Eckman-Lawn

Adventure Time with Finn and Jake

March 12th, 2010

Alex Eckman-Lawn is one of the most intriguing illustrators I’ve met. From his comic book debut with Awakening, to his recent solo art-gallery show titled, REBUILT, Alex’s photo/textured work is sure to go to new levels and redefine areas in Illustration. As for Alex’s Ice King….he’s clearly up to no good.

Adventure Time with Finn and Jake

March 12th, 2010

Early reviews came in from the east coast today, which were all pretty rad. My favorite is this picture of 2 year old Serena, who was excited with what she saw. It is pre-officially Adventure Time!!!

Finally! Seventeen years in the making! While the official premiere is still a few weeks away (Monday, April 5), Pendleton Ward’s Adventure Time with Finn and Jake gets its very first sneak peek tonight on Cartoon Network at 8:30 p.m. Watch it or you stink! Oh, and after you do, it’d be great if you let us know what you think.

Phil Rynda designed the rough version of the above title card, Paul Linsley painted it, and art director Nick Jennings gave it his final pass. The thrilling publication below provided the inspiration.

Adventure Time with Finn and Jake

March 11th, 2010

I’ll let Scott explain his slick piece to you.

“Howdy all,

Here’s my take on the characters from Adventure Time with Finn and Jake. My inspiration (and models) for this piece are my son, whose name is actually Finn, and my pug,” Meatball, who served as a stand-in for Jake. I hope you like it…

Frederator Postcard Series 9.2, mailed March 5, 2010

After I left Hanna-Barbera and our first big idea incubator, Nickelodeon asked us to set up shop with them. “Only if we could start a second home for lunatics,” I said. Lucky for us, Herb Scannell and Albie Hecht agreed, and Oh Yeah! Cartoons was hatched.

Autumn Society Tribute (18): Dan Trauten

Adventure Time with Finn and Jake

March 10th, 2010

This whimsical and adventure-filled image you see above is by my friend Dan Trauten. Dan’s line quality and color selection is what makes his work standout. I remember when Dan and I were in our senior year of art school, taking a break and watching the original Adventure Time pilot over and over again. Dan has been a fan since then as well. More of Dan’s work at www.dantrauten.com and more Autumn Society tributes here.
