Super Rex
What sort of top-secret project is talented mad cartoonist Rex Hackelberg developing up in Canada? I don't know, but the cartoon designs featured in THIS POST on his blog totally blew my mind. The model sheets of the cat and the bespectacled kid—which reminds me of a mini-Ward Kimball—have some of the most exuberant, imaginative and fun poses I've seen in a long while. The only thing missing here is some funny loose animation that matches the energy of these model drawings. Let's hope that's coming up next.
