MADBALLS

Does anyone remember Madballs? They were these balls that came out in the late 80s/early 90s, and they totally embodied the gross out/slime kid factor of the time. So of course I had one. These found their way back into my mind when I found Madballs stickers at the dollar store. One of the stickers was this toothy, oozing robot creature, and, in needing a break from assigned art projects, I decided to draw it and throw some gouache on top.
With names like, Slobulus, Repvile, and Swine Sucker, how could you not want one? They even managed to make an animated series out of them. I suppose its freaky fun for everyone.

I'm finally got a hold of one of the scanners at school so here are some sketchbook images. It seems like I've been pouring all free moments into my sketchbook studies, but hopefully I can upload some pictures of my current paintings soon. My color theory class has opened me up to gouache, and I've been having a lot of fun incorporating it with ink drawings. So here they are!
