Well, I was hoping to get the chance to do all the griffin turns, mouthcharts, and expressions before posting again, but things have been too busy. In the meantime, enjoy these “Crabulus-Destroyer of worlds” designs that we just nailed down. From episode #107, “Hard Sell”.

More coming soon!

What do Mike Wallace, Billy Joel, Eric Robles, and Ghostface Killah all have in common? If you answered, “They’re all Shriners,” you’re only half right. The truth is they’re all celebrating birthdays today. So if you run into Mike, Billy, Eric, or Ghostface today, wish them a good one. And watch out, Robles. I’m catching up to you!

Hello all! Well, we had our very first internal network pitch and it went amazingly great! Thanks to the Amazing work of the Fanboy and Chum Chum crew we are starting on the right foot. It truly is exciting to see where the show is going with all the funny and talent people involved.

He’s truly Eric Robles’s right-hand man on this series, and you couldn’t find a better guy for Team Fanboy. Wish him luck.

Well its time for me to change offices again this week. I’m hoping my next move will be a bit more permanent. I’ve had two offices since I’ve started on Fanboy and Chum Chum so I thought I’d put up some pics. Enjoy!

Sketching at home while I’m bedridden and bored. I’m a big fan of screwed up proportions on my designs. Skinny legs are awesome! I need to get back to work tomorrow. Yeah Monday! Robles

From Eric Robles:

“Here is a concept for a woman. I haven’t drawn any women for the show yet so the very talented Steve Lambe is going to take my rough and hone in on the designs for the females on the show.”
