Freakshow Winner

Our new winner of the Bouldermedia Artblog crown is Grainne Quinlan. Well done misses!
You can check out more of Grainne's work here . Runners up were Dave DeKeyser and Chrystian Cattaneo, well done lads. Thank you all who posted, as usual I know how busy everyone is these days in the studio.
We have also had some new members of staff start over the last few weeks so would like to welcome them to the studio and look forward to seeing some of their work over the coming months.
New theme to follow very shortly.

Since I disqualified my last entry for cheating, here's a gif of a rare 6-headed tengu.

Harry's Harbour Bizarre

Got a bit if a Victorian buzz going at the moment, so thought I'd run with it since it suits the theme, and throw in a Tom Waits tribute into the bargain. Roll up, roll up...

Freaking old man staring

Whiskey-smelling-old-men that sometimes sit close to you in the bus and just....stare! gah!

McGann

 Stephen said I could draw him for this month's theme!

Animation freak

I know nothing more freaky than me animating a scene.. I could go on forever!
So, this would be me under deadline.

It turned out way more gloom and creepy than I intended, but..

Ring Master

Two for the price of one

EDIT: I did a more finished colored submission, so updated this post rather than spamming with another post :D The idea was that the viewer was the freak, yes...YOU!

My original sketch submission:

Theme 20

Get in touch with your inner Freak... we want the weirdest of the weird and the strangest of the strange on the blog this month. The new theme for March is...

"FREAKSHOW"

Enjoy!

Cat Wins!

We have a new winner and it is one of our newest animators in Boulder. Her name is Fernanda Valverde and only started a couple of weeks ago and is already winning the blog. As you can see well deserved and something a little different. You can check out some more of Fernanda work here .
Not to forget our runners up, Estrela Lorenco and Finbar Coyle joint second and Claire Duffy jumpin in in third.. This particular theme was one of my favourites being a massive Dog lover and yeah I love Cats too. The variety and range of work that came in was amazing and funny and just damn right awesome! Well done everyone. The blog loves you all.

gloomy cat

Meow

I like drawing cats

Perch

Cats sit where cats want

CEO dog and friends

Where's the Cat?

I ate the Cat!

Grumpy Cat

I was working on something else but never got a chance to finish it, so here is my submission Grumpy Cat.....the only acceptable cat to own

Street Fighters: Doge vs Grumpy Cat

Coming soon... (?)

relax and stretch like a cat...

Sal

This is my dog Sal... she loves balls :/

Round 2

I didn't really feel I put the vs in cats vs dogs, so here was another attempt at the subject in good ol' fashioned pencils.

Dog Stand-Up

Woof woof

Cats should wear pants!

First thing I think about when I hear cats is....their butts. Why do they always need to shove it in your face right? That was the inspiration for this image even though I strayed a bit away from what I had in mind :P

Can't Nap with a Cat!

Cats Vs Dogs

Went a bit mad with this one. A war between cats and dogs wearing 15th C French military uniforms... my money is on the cats!

Best Friends

went pretty dark with this picture

dogsdogsdogsdogs

i like dogs!

Our first Hat-Trick

Here it is, the winner, and our very first Hat-trick on the Boulderblog. Anita Gaughan does it again and you can see why. This is pretty amazing, well done Anita.
But lets not forget about the rest of our fantastic entries with Dave De Keyser and Chris O'Hara coming in 2nd and 3rd spots.
The usuall thanks goes to everyone who posted and hope that you try your hand at the Cats v's Dogs theme now running.

Cats v's Dogs

Hey there. The new theme is.....

Cats v's Dogs

I know there are lots of people in Boulder very fond of the K9's and some more swayed toward our Feline friends. So let's see who comes out on top!

May the Force be with you Jamie

So for me Christmas is the time of big movie releases, and last I heard the new Star Wars movie would come out in 2015? So I'm guessing they will aim for a Christmas release.... please give us something worthy of the name Star Wars.

In the meantime it would be great if the folks at Titmouse would give us a crossover episode between Randy and Star Wars, I want to draw some lightsaber action!  As tradition commands this is a late entry, so I didn't have the time to color in between the lines, but I managed to squeeze in Jamie in a stormtrooper costume and make Randy fangirls' fantasy come to life and let Randy(Anakin) hook up with Heidi (Padme).

Jamie TEEHAN WOLF!

It's Jamie, dressed as Santa, obviously!!

Annual Christmas-related post.

Well, this fits into a more general Christmas theme than 'All I Want For Christmas.' But then, I guess everyone wants Santa to visit for Christmas, so I'm shoehorning this thing I did into the theme that way! Merry Christmas everyone!

Spidey Claus - Jamie style!

I hear rumours that Jamie is starting a new career as Spiderman/Santa....

Me!

I see this months theme either being very flattering or hilarious (probably both).... thanks GILL! :P

So I'll kick it off!

And if anyone wants to shoot over to my blog, I've posted some stuff under the same theme.

Final Theme for 2013

Okay so here we go the final theme for 2013.

"All I want for Christmas"
or
"Jamie Teehan"

Our boy Jamie will be leaving us next week to pursue some magical dreams. He will be sadly missed by many in Boulder. Jamie has been with us for 10 years and has been a valued member of staff. Always a smile on his face and brought a lot to the Boulderteam. So I think the best way for us to send him off on the blog is by doing a theme just for him (well, and Christmas...after all he is a jolly fellow!). Feel free to combine the two themes!

Take care Jamie and we hope you will continue to post on this here blog when you get the chance.
*sad face*

Winner Theme No.17

Well, well, well. He does it again (que:champagne and streamers!)
The prize goes to Stephen Mcgann, well done Ste. Runners up were Pete Slattery with his beautiful line drawing of the Hipsters and Gill's Brony.
Thank you to all who posted up and a big welcome to some of our newer members of staff, Katerina and Chrystian.
