Fanboy and Chum Chum

Next time you see Caesar Martinez (he’s now working on Sym-Bionic Titan), give him a big thumbs up for his brand new Daytime Emmy. Caesar earned it for his background design work on “Chimp Chomp Chumps.” The Daytime Emmys honor exceptional series, specials, animation, and achievement in televised programming that airs during the day. The awards ceremony will be held on Friday, June 25th in Los Angeles. (These four designs are some of Caesar’s stock designs, I should note. Click any for larger versions.) Congratulations, Caesar.

Coonfoot has asked to see some art of the Fanlair, home to Fanboy and Chum Chum. We’ll start off by showing five drawings by the exceptionally talented Caesar Martinez. From above to bottom, that’s Caesar’s concept, interior views two and three, a size comparison with Fanboy (using interior view #1), and an overhead map. As always, you can click through to the Flickr page for different sizes. More images to follow.

Here are a few pieces of production art of the amusement park attraction that gives the episode “Manarctica the Ride” its title. Eric’s concept is below, followed by Caesar’s Ride Station, Ext. Wide Shot, and Ext. Coaster Turn. The art above is by designed by Caesar and colored by Chad. As usual, click through for different sizes on Flickr.

While a finished, rendered CG image is a bit away from completion, I figured I’d post a bunch of concept art for Yo’s bedroom from episode #138, “The Incredible Shrinking Fanboy”. The work began when Eric Robles, to whom girls’ bedrooms are unknown territory, asked Niki Yang to come up with a few ideas for the look of Yo’s room. Here you can see a pair of Niki’s original rough concepts, followed by Eric’s somewhat less roughs, and wrapped up with Caesar Martinez’s clean-ups. Then there’s Caesar’s overhead turn to help the CG group figure out what goes where (and which pieces can be re-u$ed from previous episodes). Chucked in at the bottom are also a few elements drawn by Caesar and colored Chad Woods with a little help from Kyle Neswald. The color on Caesar’s image above is also by Chad.
