When designing the look of the trash filled interior of Squidward's house in "Heart of Garbage," I looked back at early paintings of the Barg-N-Mart and suggested we go with the messier linework with swatches of painted color in those backgrounds. The results from Shane and his team were astounding!
A few choice storyboard cleanups from the SpongeBob Squarepants Movie. I'm still so proud to have been a part of this movie! #spongebob #animation
Look how they massacred my boy! This is my other SpongeBob video game cover, drawn circa 2008. Somebody went in and made very clunky changes to my original. #spongebob #drawntolife #videogame #nintendods #doodlebob #mehoyminoy #illustrationart
This is a proud moment! I started working on SpongeBob in fall of 1999. Four of my students just worked on the CG for the recent episode "Go Fetch!" Congrats to Jack Gatto, Anthony Syracuse, Lucas Santos, Geoff Roberts. Great job guys! #spongebob #CGartist #animation #legacy #daemenuniversity
Atlantis SquarePantis! I created the artwork for the original DVD cover of this special. #spongebob #dvd #picoftheday #animation #cartoon #digitalillustration #atlantis
My 18yo started a new job today and I reminded him to be a SpongeBob, not a Squidward :) This is a page from my Little Golden Book "Mr. Fancypants". #spongebob #illustration #animation #littlegoldenbooks
Happy First Day of School! (at least for me and my kids) Here are some back-to-school style guide sketches. These are from the fully digital era. Everything has gotten much tighter since drawing tablets came into use. #spongebob #backtoschool #preppy #science #cartoon #animation #digitalsketch
More SpongeBob styleguide poses. I remember Steve Hillenburg was very picky about the karate pose. We went through several rounds of revisions, so this version is mostly based on his notes. #spongebob #animation
Posting production art and various other tidbits from “SpongeBob SquarePants.” In memory of Stephen Hillenburg.
