I should probably call this the Thursday sketch, since I’m only posting it now and it wasn’t finished until 2 in the morning. I saw mention of a “Eustace Tilley” contest online (Tilley is the New Yorker’s “mascot”), and I thought it would be different and interesting to send in an entry.
It’s certainly a different style and vision than I would normally do, but this year I really want to push the boundaries of what I would “normally” do. This is a start, a far brighter palette and definitely lighter content (as far as intent/mood).
I don’t know how it really turned out, you be the judge of that. It’s called “Eustace Tilley and the Girl”.
