old drawings

i have a lot of drawings that i have done over the years and i think it would be cool to archive some, considering that is what my old page was for.

mustaches inc.

when i was a kid, my dream job would be to have my own cartoon tv show (on cartoon network) since i grew up with a lot of amazing ones, such as courage the cowardly dog, the adventures of jimmy neutron: boy genius, spongebob squarepants, etc. my premise would be a show based around an evil company called mustaches inc., named after its founder, mr. mustache. the show would have progression with all the members turning good by the end instead of their evil selves. i had a lot of ideas over the years for the characters but never fully realized them. here they are.

Troy - Named after a Mario Kart Wii YouTuber I have always liked, TWD98. A floating lightbulb with arms that never blinks. He was the first guy that I ever made when I drew him on a napkin when I was at a Chinese restaurant with my mom, I think. As a result, he is the first "regular" member of the corporation, who joined after he saw a flyer advertising it. He went to a pumpkin patch and created Evil Rebecca, the 2nd member. His EX form is more emo but otherwise the same. His half-brother Loy is also a member.

Evil Rebecca - A pumpkin queen whose design has changed a lot. She originally had two electricity conductors on her head but those were replaced with different hair and a bowtie. She has a bunch of pumpkin minions to do her bidding and wears green shoes, and she doesn't have time to put up with people's nonsense. She was a simple pumpkin in a patch until Troy constructed her into a living being. She has her own instrumental theme song and super sweet ride. Her EX form wears different clothing, and she is one of the most iconic characters I have ever created.

Darkness - Originally his design was based on the Terrible Portrait minibosses in Wario World, but I later changed him to be a painting of the former president of Giberia. Giberia is a fictional country where people speak Gibberish, and he was a well-respected leader in his old age, with this being a famous painting of him that has come to life. He acts as Choke's interpreter since he is bilingual in Gibberish and English (learnt as a second language by traveling overseas), and they are best friends. His old EX form was a tablet.

Choke - An alien from Venus who recieved his name when his mother made him spaghetti. As he was eating, one of his eyes fell out and he swallowed it, now making him speak a dialect of Gibberish in weird choking sounds. He was exiled to Giberia immediately since he was respected and not judged there. While he understands English, he is unable to speak it for obvious reasons, so he befriended Darkness (since they actually understand each other) and has him interpret. His redesign was done in collaboration with a friend of mine in high school, I cannot remember her name unfortunately. His EX version had him regain his eyes, allowing him to speak normally.

Kononono - A hot dog that fell into some toxic waste which made him grow in size and become discolored. His toxic jacket allows him to slide and spread goop everywhere and he has adjusted to this ability. His tail was changed to not look like Pikachu's. He has always been one of my favorite characters, and his EX form makes him look blue instead. His brother Green was also a member at one point, but was ultimately removed.

Kiki - She went through two name changes: first MeeMee, then Memo, and finally Kiki, who used to have a more generic design. She is a half black half Japanese ghost who likes to style her hair in twintails. Her story serves as a cautionary tale to those who smoke, as she started using cigarettes when she was a young teen in school under peer pressure, leading her to develop lung problems. She ended up passing away at the age of 19 due to this, making her the youngest member of the corporation. She enjoys scaring people and finds joy in everyday life despite having her life cut short. Her original EX form had different "antennas" and a purple look. She is one of my favorite characters.

Smiley Guy - Originally called "^o^", he is a sort of mushroom-gremlin-like creature with shaggy hair and an expressive face. He gets his name because of his claim to villainy, being that he is the leader of every single emoji in the world, using them to waste people's time by having them worry about choosing the right one. He has an aerial armada with them and is very hysterical. His EX form gives him a new outfit, that's it.

The Quickster - The fastest man alive, the Quickster has been running and winning awards since he was young and takes great pride in it, with none of his medals that he routinely wears weighing him down. He prefers to spend his time at the gym with the bros than focus on women, as he got out of a bad relationship and wants to learn to find more joy being by himself. He repeats positive mantras to himself every day and never gives up. His EX form gives him hair and a crown.

Gleen - My entire life I have loved vampires so naturally, I had to have a vampire character. His original name was Charlie before he was bitten and turned into this blood-sucking creature by an unknown vampire, as he lost his memory of how he was a wholesome guy before all this. He still struggles with his identity a lot as a result, leading to his depression as there is a lot of activities he cannot do, like go out in the sun without a jacket to hide his skin. He could change into a large, blue bat with a magic wand as well in older designs. He is dating Emily (since they have similar designs) but they are unable to have children since he is a vampire and she is not. His EX form uses a different hairstyle.

Emily - Mother Nature herself. From a young age she had always had this role of being connected to nature and taking care of it, but would find herself being a social outcast as a result of her abilities to fly and create rain, stuff like that. She is themed around the color green and her emotions sometimes affect her powers. She really wants to have a kid with Gleen, her boyfriend, but that would mean that the entirety of nature would be affected, since her offspring would have vampire DNA. Her EX form had her lose her trademark boots and gives her black hair.

Izzie - An emo girl who dislikes being around people and prefers to keep in solitude as she dyes her hair black and does her makeup in her room. Her hair is styled so that she has a strand of hair slightly obscuring her eyes, except in her EX form, which now has different white hair. She is gay and has a girlfriend, I think her name is Abbey, who is good friends with all the members. I have always liked her design and would love to do an entire series just based around her. Maybe in a band called Potato Salad with her girlfriend. She also has a brother (who was also going to be a member) and a sister.

Lily - Named after an old girlfriend and inspired by the Lady Linda poundcake logo, she is a blond girl with a robotic exoskeleton. This allows her to have one of her arms be a gun (similar to Mega Man) and wear a geometric red helmet with a lot of weird, snake-like things coming out of it that are dangerous. She likes to be secretive so she rarely goes without her helmet in public and has feelings for the Quickster, who sees her only as a friend, making her sad. Her EX form gets rid of her robotic side.

Broomy - Inspired by the walking brooms with arms in the Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey Mouse book, and I think I first drew him on Valentine's Day in elementary school. He is simply a broom with arms and the ability to change size who gets along with only a few of the other members (like Kiki) around the corporation because he has a reputation of being strict and not liking fun things, but once you get to know him, he is very kind. He is often in charge when Mr. Mustache is away because he is very reliable and gets things done quick and efficiently, while many other members are lazy. His EX form adds a dustpan.

Thor Guide - Without a doubt one of my favorite characters I have ever made, named after Thor Freudenthal, director of Diary of a Wimpy Kid. He is a German (originally Russian) robot who co-founded Mustaches Inc. with Mr. Mustache when they were dormmates in college. As his name indicates, he was originally simply a tour guide for people interested in visiting the company, but he would later rarely attend meetings as he would focus on his other, more important job: being a spy for another, unknown congregation. He is who Mr. Mustache trusts the most, alongside Broomy, as he also is very hard-working. He is equipped with a singular wheel, antenna, blinking eyes, a large keyboard, and arms that can transform into whatever torture device he needs. He would mysteriously disappear after a mission with people worrying that he had been assassinated, though unconfirmed.

Mr. Mustache - The guy who started it all, Mr. Mustache had been upset at the world ever since his parents named him "Marty", and so he decided to pursue a life of evil while devising plans in college. His mother (also evil) had encouraged him to attend under the pretense that it would give him ideas for his own startup, with his father being oblivious. With the help of his dormmate Thor Guide, he co-founded Mustaches Inc. and devised a plan to create mustaches to mind control people. Although his plans have stalled, he still finds inspiration in the people he has recruited, believing them to be "evil enough" to have joined, and they often share ideas. He just gets upset when all they can think of is simple plans such as stealing chips from stores instead of committing fraud, or something more interesting. But he feels grateful to have company around him, even if his employees slack off. His EX form is older.

scrapped characters

Mly - A gigantic robot guy with very long legs. His EX form... has more arms.

Rock 6 - Originally called R6ox (no idea what I was thinking), he is a flying alien creature with weird eyes. His EX form is made to resemble a rice cooker with teriyaki inside, with his eyes being on a fork and spoon.

Exor - Named after the Super Mario RPG boss, he is a robotic fish with a blinking light for an eye attached to a body with wheels. His EX form gives him a protective cage to hide his weak spot: his face.

Lucas - A purple guy made entirely of gloop, a weird substance that allows him to become whatever form he wants to be. He is not the only character I have who is made of this, and he had a cool design. His EX form is a different color.

Zox - I had a Spy vs. Spy poster that had an action figure of the white spy with a lamp thing, or a jack o' lantern face and used that as inspiration. He is Evil Rebecca's husband (contrary to popular belief that Troy is) and he is obsessed with knives. Once again, different EX colors.

Charlie (no relation to Gleen) - A giant green caterpillar who gets on a lot of people's nerves with his nasal voice. He was bullied a lot for his looks. His EX form allows him to spread his wings.

Percy - A weird, small pink guy inspired by Kirby who carries a hammer and a crown. His EX form makes him more fluffy. Not much to say.

Lavender - A giantic, gray metal hand that walks around at an alarming rate. She was inspired by the scene in Beetlejuice where some sculptures come to life. Her EX form gives her painted nails.

King Plant - One of my more inspired designs, he takes the form of a giant plant (a venus fly trap?) with a crown that was grown by Emily. His EX form gives him hair.

Joe & Steve - Unintentionally named after the Blue's Clues' hosts, these two are twin underlings of King Plant. They strongly believe in peace and do not have a real reason to be there. They have EX antennas.

Queen Suku - I had a recurring character called "Suku", a water droplet with a kawaii face. As they are more like a species, this is the queen of them, sporting a UFO. Her EX form replaces it with a shark.

Tickety Tock - I think his name comes from a kid's show or something. He is just a small clock who is really feisty and annoyed because everyone picks on him for his size. His EX form is an electronic alarm clock.

Gavinder - Lavender's husband, meant to be a play on words with "Gavin". He is just a giant fist on top of a ghastly body, his EX form has two fists.

iError - Obvious reference to Apple products with the name, just a glitchy computer on wheels. His EX form has different hands.

Green - The namesake of many of my accounts, he is Kononono's brother who is super lazy and was not as lucky when it comes to the goop covering his entire face.

Mocking Machine - His name is a reference to when I would arrange my toys certain ways as a kid and call them "mocking machines". He is a robot resembling a volcano that loves mocking people and is best friends with Mr. Laugh. His EX form has different colors.

Mandy - A weird bat-like creature with wings who has forced to leave when it was revealed she was not an adult. I retired her because I did not like her design.

Jeff - Just a dude which an eyepatch who is really into bombs and pyrotechnics. Really uninspired which is why he is only on the 1st version.
