squashed pitch comp
something else… all dumpers
Nice new stuff, I like the balloonman!
nice stache!
Very nice characters! no outline and it works
AWESOME fun characters!! Love the design!
Joel! Keep on dumping! I enjoy this style. Did you do these guys in flash?
Thanks, all. Definitely encouraging to read such fine comments from talented people.
heath- Yeah I’m pretty much an all Flash guy. Not for loyalty’s sake, but more due to laziness. I’m just lucky it’s versatile.
Thanks again, digichums!

Sweet stuff, Joel. I’m really digging your blog, and mv’s. I doubt you can say what songs these were pitches for?
the stache guy kicks ass man, I’m linkin you if that’s cool?
Thanks, guys.
kevathens- Big fan of all you do, sir. Thanks for all the support and glad you like the blog! As far as these images go… the first was for a show pitch Ruben and I were working on with another writer. Unfortunately looks like it’s all dead now. The mustached man is a take on the main character for this new video I’m working on. Don’t wanna blow the lid off of it yet, but it’s for a band on Ninja Tune. Should be able to tell more about by June if not sooner. Many many fun things in the works.
Paublo- You kiddin’? I’d be completely honored. I’ll certainly return the favor soon.
Dear Mr. Trussell,
I like your funny drawings.
awesome blog sir. i also appretiate the “tips and inspiration” provided in the links… and of couse dig the mustache.
Man what sort of fancy type diet are you on that you are able to discharge such loverly little dumps sir Trussell???
I really dig the antique woodcut feel and muted colors of that last guy.
Keep pushin out more great dumps like these and I’ll always keep coming back for more.
you sir never fail to amaze me. I wish someday we can work together on something awesome. well, more awesome than your awesome war photographer video. I’m constantly in awe. Is it possible for you to do a bad drawing? I’d really like to see your crap…it might make me feel a little better about myself. I’m insecure that way. giggle. kiss kiss.
Hey, goodfolk. Man look at all the talent up in here. Gotta love the internet.
warren- Just took a stop by your blog and got my mind blown. You’re a powerful talent, sir. I’m glad these scraps have provided some enjoyment for ya. Otherwise all they rot alone on my harddrive.
tyler- Glad the tips and inspiration were helpful. The “How To Draw A Cartoon” link is updated every month and I feel like I grow a little every time I visit. Thanks for stopping by my dumpster here. Loved your talent-packed blog too.
csnyde- My diet mostly consists of self doubt and relentless work. Har! Glad you’re liking the ‘stache guy. Hopefully soon I’ll have a version of him moving around going on an adventure. Fingers crossed.
geen- Hey man… glad you said so. I think I may have some new stuff gearing up and i’d love to summon your infinite skillz. As far as bad drawings go… there’s some on this blog you can check out, but the even worse ones I like to only show to my wife. She still loves me anyway.
Thanks again all.
