Is it too early to celebrate the duck’s 85th? NEVER!
I’ve been itching to draw Porky’s Duck Hunt in Tex Avery’s MGM style for a few years now, and Daffy’s upcoming anniversary is as great an excuse as any–this was a really fun exercise that I couldn’t keep to myself! Happy early birthday to my favorite cartoon duck and favorite cartoon anything!
In the latest installment of the PnJ Cartoon Podcast, @JIrish780 and I take a look at Chuck Jones’s take on our favorite Looney Tunes star, Daffy Duck. https://youtu.be/zpIxr6RU6n0
Yeah I’ve drawn Marvin! but it was 6+ years ago and only for a AU where the duck dodgers characters (Daffy, marvin, porky) were a D&D group. Above is a new version plus bugs and Lola. ;)
Old Marvin art under the cut:
Bonus Taz and bugs
Why is he crying, who knows.
Some kind of ship with marvin and Daffy??
A very crusty drawing of them doing the dee and dee,
PLANET X: (n.) A hypothetical undiscovered planet in the solar system, whose supposed orbit lies beyond that of the outermost planet known. (it also originally referred to the planet past Neptune, which ended up being Pluto so they had to push the “furthest out” part a bit further out)
If you grew up watching Looney Tunes, then you know Chuck Jones, one of all-time masters of visual comedy. Normally I would talk about his ingenious framing and timing, but not today. Instead, I’d like to explore the evolution of his sensibilities as an artist.
