Jimmy The Nose

"Everyone in the little town knew about Jimmy. Not just because he was the leader of the notorious Butcher's Alley Gang, but because of his tremendous dancing ability. He had won the annual crazy legs dance competition seven years in a row. People would travel from miles around to see him perform. Even though he was greatly respected, he was forced to sleep outside the town wall because of his incredibly loud snoring. The thunderous noises were described by one resident as the sound of a drunken tuba fight."

Hillbilly Cartoons

This is a preliminary sketch for a label project I was working on that fell through. The client wanted a scene with fun cartoon hillbillies. This is what I came up with. The plan was to have them standing on their front porch. Eventually, we decided to go in a completely different direction.
