Well, I still can't start any new blogs, so I have to resort posting this picture here. Anyway, I'm thinking of a possible Sesame Street parody and needed your suggestions. Here's the link to my drawing:

These Streets Are Tough...

There are a few changes I want to add later, like something funnier with Burt and Ernie, but they are just a place holder for the time being. Let me know what you guys think.

Yeah, but if you recall, tons of people had already seen The Fast Supper and that didn't stop it from getting printed. This is more than likely gonna end up as a fun project that I'll turn into a digital print to hang on my wall or something...

they should be really ragged, hard to do and still have them be recognizable, true.....big bird missing feathers, etc. plus you have the whole dead-on likeness/copyright issue to deal with.

perhaps a better angle would be to show the ludicrousness of the show by drawing it out ultra realistically. a typical street with a giant yellow canary standing next to a wooly mammoth. a vampire lurking nearby, and monsters everywhere...bert could be a genetic pinhead and ernie some short fat guy...i dunno. maybe i'll sketch that out.

That's actually a great idea. I'll start some sketches and try to post them later on today.

I like the idea, it could end up being an awesome shirt.

yeah, everything travis said, but Bert & Ernie walking down the street holding hands...still as a pinhead and short fat guy though.

fuck me for giving away ideas! urgh!

heh heh.but that's the creative process, folks, i wouldn'ta thought of it if he hadn't drawn it.

If you want, you can go with the idea travis. You'd probably be way better at it and a lot faster too.

   travis76 on Aug 30 '05 at 12:44pm
i don't know, i think i'd make it too busy. go ahead, we'll see what we both come up with. seriously, i don't think i could even get around to it any time soon.

even as a kid i wondered what was with all the giant talking animals and monsters running around..like was sesame street near a nuclear power plant?

Sounds good, we can both put something together and post it on a blog and see the reactions. Like I said, I'll try to draw some sketches when I have time, but I've got class and work until 8 p.m. tonight. We'll see...

So maybe I am the only one who is thinking from a girl or mothers point of view...



But I would never ever own a shirt like that.

First of all my entire childhood was based on Sesame Street.

And second, I would never wear a shirt in public that has those super famous characters doing bad things on them.

What am I going to say to the children I say in the super market?



To them, Sesame Street is still education and not just something cool from our past.



But I'm sure im the only one who thought of this and will be boo'd and hissed at.



I just think its a cheap shot.
