Cosmo, Preggers!

This is also from the "Fairly Odd Baby" episode. Some drawings to guide the animators, as they laid out the sequence where a pregnant Cosmo dances joyously through a bucolic landscape, celebrating his impending motherh...er...fatherhood.

Unfortunately the animation of this sequence was really disappointing, and what should have been a very funny animated segment blows by almost before you have time to notice it. That's what happens when you export art to the lowest bidder.

BABY POOF!

Well, Here I am back on FOP (The Fairly Oddparents), and my first assignment when I got back last June was to develop this character that was to be introduced in the season premiere. Cosmo & Wanda were slated to (gasp!) have a baby, and of course the details were all tightly kept under lock and key. Who was having a baby?... is it a boy or girl??... what will it's name be???...

Well, as of last night, the cat is officially out of the bag. Our season premiere, entitled "Fairly Odd Baby" aired, and Baby Poof (a boy), has been introduced to the Nickelodeon viewing world with enormous success!

This was not only my first assignment when I came back to Nick, but also my introduction to drawing on the Cintiq! Here are a few exploration pages- the earliest development of baby Poof. I hope you like 'em!
