New pic of Herculoids' Tara coming

David's deviantART Journal


If you watch my scraps, you've probably seen by now a rough blue-pencil (well, digital "pencil") sketch of Tara from The Herculoids. [link] I hope to get it finished by May 26th to commemorate the release of an episode of Herculoids on the DVD Saturday Morning Cartoons 1960's Vol. 1. Yes, I'd rather commemorate the release of a full-season set of just Herculoids cartoons, but one takes what one gets. Hopefully, if sales of this DVD are good enough, there will be a release of just such a set...

This is, as far as I can tell, the first drawing I've done in the past few months that I'm doing solely because I want to do it. (everything else I have on my various burners, front and back, are being done to fulfill obligations for commissions and chainsketches, and expectations of continuing series of drawings such as the Cosplay Calendars and the Tetsuko comic. Don't get me wrong, I want to do those other drawings as well; if I didn't, I wouldn't do them at all. It's just that the Tara drawing is the first I'm doing in a while that isn't being done at someone else's instigation.)

"Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours." - Blogger "MaxedOutMama"

I am looking forward to this set, but, as you said, I would prefer a solo-Herculoids set.

uhmmmm not to sound redundant but couldn't you have done both? a pic to honor Herculoids and a little digital majicking muscle action and make it Tet-chan's next month calander?

I was a big fan of the Herculoids. I loved Thundro (sic?) the sort of triceratops crossed with a millipede which fired the weapon of choice, high explosive pebbles. It was a great cartoon show from my youth. Glad you're doing a sketch of Tara just for fun. It's always good to mix it up once in awhile. :D

*dusting off his proffessor's cap of Cartoon Lore & History*

The character was called TUNDRO. He was an alien rhino with ten legs. He fires the same energy rocks that Zandor, Tarra and Dorno often employ (using slingshots). His hide was as thick and armored as Igoo's, and he could even leap great distances, extend his legs to greath lengths and even use his horns to drill through solid rock by spinning his head at rapid speeds.

Study up, there will be a pop quiz on monday. ;)

Smokey : "Oh, THAT was a harem, alright! I know a harem when I see one!"

I loved the Herculoids, along with a lot of the HB action series: Mightor, Space Ghost, Johny Quest, etc. ... so hearing you're doing a tribute to the show by drawing Tarra--? Man that will be EPIC!

Hey, great to see more Herculoids action...meanwhile, I see a lot of that via "The Secret Saturdays" as of late...like to see your take on the heroine of that show someday soon.
