Luck of the Draw Part One


From the pages of my Roofus sketchbook, here are some sketches and character designs of the little leprechaun from this week's Roofus storyline. When I was writing this storyline, I realized, "Oh crap. I've never drawn a leprechaun before." I knew I had to do some preliminary designs to work out the details of how he should look. If memory serves, I probably referenced the classic Chuck Jones cartoon, The Wearing of the Grin. This cartoon features Porky Pig being harassed by a couple of crazy leprechauns.

  1. This is great. I thought your leprechaun looked familiar. Love those old Merrie Melodies.

  2. Yeah. I'm a big Looney Tunes fan. They just don't make'em like that anymore.
