Sublo and Tangy Mustard #2 backgrounds

Here are a few backgrounds from Mascot Melee, the second episode of Sublo and Tangy Mustard! As usual, they were drawn and colored in Flash, and then messed up with texture and shadows in Photoshop.





I'm on Patreon!

I just started a Patreon page! In case you don't know what that is, it's basically a crowdfunding website but instead of one big campaign to back a single project, it's more of a long-term thing to help support creators who do ongoing work like a webcomic, video tutorials... or indie cartoons such as mine!

The link is https://www.patreon.com/aaronlong and it's a great site. If you support me on it, you only get charged (any amount you want) whenever I put out a new cartoon, and you can set a monthly limit so if I somehow put out two cartoons in a month, you'd only pay for one.

I'll be putting up Patreon-exclusive behind-the-scenes stuff, to provide some extra incentive to contribute. But if you can't afford to pledge, don't worry. I still love you, baby.

Sublo and Tangy Mustard Process Post - backgrounds

Jeez it's been a while since I posted on here! I've been working at ShadowMachine the whole time. First animating on Triptank Season 1, then boarding and animating on Bojack Horseman Season 1, and most recently I directed 13 shorts for Triptank Season 2 with a small team of artists. I've been having a great time!

Anyway,I'm also working on a personal project called Sublo and Tangy Mustard, about two street mascots for a sub sandwich restaurant called Subpar. It should be six episodes long (at least for now) and each one will be 2-5 minutes. The first one is about 70% done at the moment.


I just finished the backgrounds for the first episode, and here's a step-by-step look at how I've been doing them:
