Wacky Races

January 24th, 2008

Comment: I grew up on Hanna-Barbera and Filmation Studios cartoons and in 1969 I sent in about 1000 cereal box tops to get an offer for two of the cars from Wacky Races.  It was the Mean Machine (above) and Penelope Pitstop's car (I'm too tired to Google its name). I happened along the DVD set of the entire series of "Wacky Races" today and it inspired me to do this cartoon. 

I drew the Mean Machine in Manga Studio using their curve tool.  It is the best curve tool I've ever used (Adobe doesn't even have one and Manga Studio is only $299! Wake up Adobe!) and I simply import an image capture of the car, trace it out then colorized it in PhotoShop CS2.  I hand drew the background and Bud.  People I can do, backgrounds I'm not too hot at (duh).  Enjoy!
