Description AAAHHHHH!!! I'm SUPER PSYCHED!!!!! I'm just so happy with this!!!!! Drawn for 's awesome Cartoon Network Collab. wickfield.deviantart.com/journ…

First and for-most, Happy 75th Birthday Bugs!!! I was completely surprised on Monday when my parents told me he turned 75. It gave me that extra motivation to make this really good...

I thought it was unbelievably lucky I managed to snag the legendary Bugs Bunny for this collab. Drawing him for a huge project like this is such an honor since even among Cartoon Network characters, he's one of the most recognizable faces, so I knew he had to be right. It's been a long, long time since I've drawn Bugs. I did a number of sketches (that are sadly lost...) of him in my childhood, like around 8 or 9. I actually created a comic where his nephew (i believe) joined him and the other Looney Tunes in a game against the Mon-Stars from Space Jam. It was fun, but I wish I had held onto those sketches.

Since it's been years from the last time I drew Bugs, I decided to use Google search for basic references and decided to create a mish mosh of different pictures for this sketch. I really took my time with this; In fact I was apprehensive to start coloring it since I thought the sketch was so good. Luckily, I've gotten very comfortable with my markers, so I knew I could bang this out quickly. Decided to use a fine marker for thin, precise inking and it turned out extremely well. I'm just sooooooooooooo happy with this!!!!!!!!

I do think this turned out well!  I honestly thought it was watercolors when I first looked at it.  Bugs definitely had to be part of the collab, remember when CN ran the "June Bugs" specials in the summer?

This summer? Not exactly. I've really thrust myself into work lately (late night shifts). But thank you!

No, I don't think they still do it anymore, I meant WAY back in the day.  I was watching an old tape of Cartoon Network from 2001 where they were advertising it.
