HEY THERE PEOPLE OF TODAY AND ROBOTS OF TOMORROW! IT'S ME, CLARK!

On New Year's 2024 I vowed to myself that I'd be more productive than ever, streamlining all of my ideas and making a decent living on commissions. While doing that I figured I'd keep my creative muscles limber by posting the occasional DUDEL or Sketch BOOM every now and again. Now chances are these won't be a daily thing. There'll be some days when I'm just feeling too bushed to scribble my silly ideas down on paper or I'll be too busy binging the likes of Steven Universe or Burn Notice. Yes, I am fully aware that those two shows make for a weird combination. Just imagine Michael Westen trying to help out the Crystal Gems, I'd totally watch that. Then again, I have a weird imagination as this DUDEL is about to illustrate.

Christopher Robin had many companions living in the Hundred Acre Woods. Though perhaps none plushy pal holds as special a place in his heart as his dear friend Edward Bear, or Pooh for short. Pooh was not a bright bear. Solving complex equations or discuss the philosophies of Plato were of little use to one who has fluff where his brains would be. Luckily brains aren't required to be intelligent. Old Edward more than made up for this when it came to his immensely large heart. Weather is was protecting his pal Piglet from Jagulars, helping his friend Eeyore find his tail, or simply bouncing around with Tigger, Eddy was the bear everybody turned to. Including Matt Whimsy, the animation magician of Hollywood responsible for Freddy and Fiona Fox. He and his animation team at Whimsy Studios adapted the classic tales of this lovable teddy bear into a series of movies over the years that have outlived A.A. Milne, Matt Whimsy, and even Christopher Robin himself. Now today fans of the characters can meet them at Whimsyland in California whenever not riding Edward's Excellent Expedition, helping the gang from the woods find the fabled North Pole!

Maybe I can help them find it after completing an entire Sketch BOOM. This was meant to be the start of one right up until Rosie Stardust foiled my plans. Dang that Cosmic Cutie and her alien design! Having said that, expect more from my multiversal adventurer later. For now I couldn't let a good design go to waste. What prompted me to draw this was Whimsyland, my answer to the question of what is Brooklyn Nine Nine took place at a theme park instead of a police precinct. Realizing I needed more recognizable characters for this fictional park, I decided to go with the ones that were thankfully in the public domain. Really the challenge was coming up with a design that wasn't similar to those used my a certain company, which I think I succeeded in doing. What helped was going back to the original designs by E.H. Shepard and keeping to the simplistic mindset. My biggest hurtle was Pooh's attire since, despite wearing one in the original freak'n book, I couldn't dress him in a tiny red shirt. So instead I settled on a scarf to fit with his adventurous life style. Here's hoping we'll see more of Old Eddy, Piglet, and Tigger in the future. For now-

MAY THE GLASSES BE WITH YOU!

PS: Oh, you noticed the logo on the bottom, did you? We'll talk about that later...

**Jayde's Day in Whimsyland**

In the land of Whimsy, where colors collide,

Lived a woman named Jayde, with spirit and pride.

Her hair was a rainbow, her laughter a breeze,

And her shoes were adorned with polka-dot trees.

Jayde danced through the meadows, twirling with glee,

Her skirt made of moonbeams, as light as can be.

She sang to the stars, and they twinkled in tune,

While fireflies waltzed 'neath the silvery moon.

Her eyes were like marbles, a kaleidoscope view,

Reflecting the dreams that only Jayde knew.

She rode on a snail, its shell painted gold,

Chasing rainbows and secrets, both young and old.

Jayde had a pet dragon named Fiddlesticks Fred,

Who played jazz on his tail and wore socks on his head.

They sipped tea with the fairies, told jokes to the trees,

And practiced their cartwheels in the soft summer breeze.

Her house was a teapot, perched high on a hill,

With windows of candy and a licorice sill.

Jayde brewed magic potions in cups made of dew,

And invited the moon for a midnight fondue.

She whispered to daisies, confided in bees,

And taught the shy clouds how to dance with ease.

Jayde's laughter echoed through valleys and glens,

As she painted the sky with invisible pens.

So if you ever wander to Whimsyland's gate,

Look for Jayde's footprints—they're never too late.

She'll invite you to twirl, to dream, and to play,

In a world where imagination holds sway.

For Jayde knows the secret, the magical key,

That life is more splendid when lived fancifully.

---

*Note: In the land of Whimsy, Jayde's adventures continue, and her laughter still echoes among the stars.* 🌟✨.

The Whimsyland Soopurmart

Val’Gruuth the Beef-Slayer, of the Dwarf clan Soopur, ran the cash register of the SoopurMart with his flowing, bark-brown beard deep between his arms, a rock-piercing snore erupting from within. His axe and helm, war-torn, sat propped up against the glass box he slept on, full of artifacts both strange yet common in Whimsyland.

The SoopurMart had the layout of your basic corner store. It was small, with three small aisles across from the counter, all covered head to toe in Whimsyland’s best snacks, canned meals and toiletries. The walls were lined with fridges and pastry cooling shelves, with the front door sandwiched between quarter-candy machines to the left of the counter.

The Dimension Wars had long since passed, but old Val had fought in them. He won many battles, killed many humans. Nowadays, Whimsyfolk lived peacefully alongside humans and whatever other nonsense poured in from the other dimensions. People from all sides adopted customs of the other, hence the corner store Val now manned.

It was his son, Bal-Tan’s idea to start the first little shop. It was only when it became a successful, continent-spanning franchise that Val agreed to run one himself- If there was one thing a Dwarf respected, it was money. If only that money didn’t mean turning the clan name into a marketable logo, putting eyes in the “o”’s like it were some godforsaken cryptid.

Despite the SoopurMart’s success, Val preferred being on the front lines, rather than hiring some coin-desperate young Whimsyfolk to run the place. This also meant Val got to catch up with the locals, which he enjoyed. That is, except for one.

Val awoke from his nap to the crippling realization that it was a Wednesday afternoon. Unfortunately, that meant one thing- Bob Jones would be coming in for his break-time snack. Val didn’t hate humans. But he hated how maddeningly plain some of them could be, and Bob was the perfect example of that.

With a chime, in walked Bob with his pale bald head, his washed-out blue shirt, beige shorts and Velcro flip-flops. His cologne wafted throughout the store, smelling like singed metal and dogwood. As usual, he couldn’t help but look every female Elf, Selkie and Faerie up and down, giggling to himself. He never did any touching, though Val really wanted a use for his axe.

Bob eventually came up to the counter with his usual bag of human-made chips and a bottle of human-made soda, both of which were found next to some of Whimsyland’s most interesting items-- Haste potions, fickleberry tarts, basilisk jerky. “Ah, ain’t this new world of ours great?” He said for the hundredth time in as many Wednesdays.

“Uh-huh,” Val grunted. “Cash or credit?”

“Well, actually,” Bob said. “I found this amazing block of refined ore!” He plopped a pearl-white rectangle onto the glass counter. “It fell out of one of them portals, right onto my lawn! Certainly something so amazing would be sufficient payment?”

Val picked up the block, weighing it, scanning it up and down. Then, he took a bite, the creamy taste of white chocolate caressing his tongue.

“Wh-What?” Bob said, confused.

“Must’ve been a Candyland portal,” Val said. “Cash or credit?”

But this, as usual, didn’t dissuade Bob. He shoved his plain little hand back into his pocket, and

pulled out some sort of crumpled-up gold paper. “What about this, huh?” He asked. “Pure gold! Sure, it’s a little thin, but more than enough for chips and pop! Maybe even a couple smokes?”

“That stuff’s everywhere,” Val said, “Elves plaster their houses with it to ward off spirits. …Where’d you say you got this?”

Bob, of course, didn’t answer. Instead, he reached back into his pockets. The other customers, thankfully, knew poor Val was in for the long haul, so they left payment at the edge of the counter and went on with their days.

Bob threw all sorts of vaguely shiny things onto the counter—Crystals, petrified bark, even some silver fur he thought was from a unicorn. Each time, Val pointed out how common or useless the item

truly was.

Nearly an hour later, Bob had finally given up. Grumbling, he paid for his snack, left his trash on the counter, and stomped out of the store.

Once Bob drove off, Val spat the chocolate he bit off back out, wiped it down, and stuffed it and the rest of the brick under the counter. Candyland chocolate sold big in Whimsyland. Too bad Bob didn’t know that.

I figured I post this, since I've been pretty active. For the next few days don't panic if you don't hear anything from me! My folks invited me to join them for a few days to celebrate Spring Break for one of my younger brothers! We'll be going to Whimsyland so I really won't have time to be active. I'll tell you guys the highlights though!

The Way-Too-Late and Highly Self-Indulgent Greasy Pizzeria Punk Rock Vinyl Club’s Top Albums of 2022 List. Numbers 1-10 : : 1. @soulglophl - “Diaspora Problems.” Top to bottom, left to right, inside and out the best hardcore punk album of the year. 2. @offofficial - “Free LSD.” A real swing for the fences that almost imploded the band paid off in a big way. 3. Tony Molina - “In The Fade.” Uniquely familiar fuzzed out power pop hooks with some soft boi’s thrown in. 4. @chained_bliss - “Chained Bliss.” The perfect combination of weirdo punk and technical talent. 5. Whimsyland - “Chadd Derkins Presents: Whimsyland.” The PPMB collectively soundtracking a manic romp through America’s bed non-existent theme park. 6. @drugchurch - “Hygiene.” Fully realized and heavier than ever. 7. @theeradicator - “Forever The Eradicator.” History has sided with this, the better (and funnier) of the masked-band punk rock shticks. Their best record yet. 8. @stiffrichardsband - “Stiff Richards.” This repress (or whatever) counts as 2022 because I said so. I’s that good. 9. @lotionmnc - “W.A.R. In The Digital Realm.” Remember that video game boss you couldn’t quite beat? Well they just released an album and it’s great. 10. @nobromusic - “Live Your Truth Shred Some Gnar.” Hooks! riffs! attitude! sex appeal! The perfect rock album. : : #punkrecords #punkvinyl #punkrockvinyl #punkrock #nowspinning #recordcollector #recordcollection #vinylcollection #records #vinyl #vinylcollector #vinylgram #vinylcommunity #vinyladdict #vinylrecords #vinyligclub #vinyljunkie #onmyturntable #instavinyl (at New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpLmkP-uvCA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On March 6th of last year I posted a collection of discarded drawings called DUMPSTER DUDELZ on deviantART, my way of making sure abandoned art would be seen. It hadn't been the first time I had compiled all of my leftovers together, 2013's Sketchapalooza ULTIMAtE acting as the original Clarktoon sketch dump before I made Sketch BOOMs a thing. The only difference this time was that all the artwork was original, Sketchapalooza including fan art of Queen La, Mickey Mouse, and Blue's Clues. With all the projects I start then never finished, I figured a compilation like this would be a perfect way to show what all doesn't make the final cut. Now with it being the dawn of a New Year, I decided to bring the idea back with a vengeance! That is until I saw how many scrapped scribbles I actually had. Unlike the previous DUMPSTER DUDELZ, which had amassed years worth of rejected content, this one comes at the end of a single year where most of my ideas managed to make it online. Heck, one of the sketches seen here actually was posted to deviantART before now. You know what I say to all that though? Screw it, let's post it anyway! Hopefully my posting all of this will usher in the beginning of a full, productive year of artwork. If not, I at least got to humiliate my good friend Volts48...

1) SPOOKY SCARY SEXY MASKED MANIAC Halloween is always a rough time for me, artistically. With Christmas taking up all of my focus I'm left unavailable to post anything for the second best Holiday of the year. Not that I ever stop trying, mind you. My goal for 2022 was to post a specially themed Sketch BOOM themed around the month of monsters, even managing to get one of my ideas down on paper. Said idea being my buddy Alec genderbent and dressed in a Virgin-Killer sweater as revenge for all the times he paid other artists to draw me with massive boobs or in frilly outfits. To any artist that has done that, rest assured I don't actually take any offense to it, I appreciate any fan work based of my characters regardless of how ridiculous. Besides, you at least draw she-me with clothes on, so there's that. This was just a silly excuse to put my friend in the exact same situation he puts me through as well the culmination of an old inside joke that even he forgot about. Back when I first started my Discord server I was very strict about what could be posted, so Alec made a big stink when my college buddy Alice2Rose posted a picture of one of these sweaters, my ignorance showing when I didn't even know what it was. Leave it to an anime weeb to detect a virgin killer a mile away. In any case, here's hoping the aftermath of my friend's long forgotten stink brings you some Halloween fun on this New Year's Day.

2) POLKA PUP, DOO DOO DA DOO DA DOO Yet another joke that culminated on my server, this time from my friend Void-Android. All throughout the last year the mechanized man was obsessed with posting comics and GIFs of puppy sharks, their precious lil' faces flooding my server like the world's cutest Sharnado. Seeing as my friend Finjix and I semi-frequently collaborate ideas for our own shark character Polka Shark, I figured it'd be fun to draw the fantastic, frantic fish as one of those peculiar house pets. The end result is an adorable abomination that'll annoy the carp out of his friend Striped Starfish.

Striped Starfish: Just what I needed; Polka with legs. There goes my plans of washing ashore and dying of heat stroke.

For those wanting more of Polka Shark's absurd under-sea antics, go check out SIM-N's gallery on deviantART. For now though I hope you all enjoy Polka Pup more than the Starfish did.

3) The Mummy of 3K, Queen Emoteph Like I said at the beginning, I had completely forgotten about having already posted this sketch of ERN-E's girlfriend and Yas Queen of the year 3000 EMIL-E as a Mummy. The idea comes from my repeated attempts to bring back the Monster 3K Pin Ups that SIM-N and I used to do for Halloween, Emoteph being brought back from our initial run from 2015. Alas, all that came from this was this admittedly awesome sketch. Fingers crossed I get to take this idea to its fullest extent next year, ERN-E opening a tomb to find the hottest Mummy ever found by man or machine.

ERN-E: That is one fresh-looking corpse... EMIL-E: You're not too bad looking yourself, big guy.

4) ERN-E X EMIL-E Speaking of the Clarktooniverse's first couple, here we have ERN-E and EMIL-E in some slightly updated designs. After years of making his eyes one big screen, I finally decided to give ERN-E more human-like eyes for ease of expression. Em herself didn't get much of an upgrade, but a sketch of ERN-E alone felt naked without his best girl by his side. Here's hoping I get to draw more of these two together in the future.

5) LET'S DANCE AT WHIMSYLAND Okay, this one's definitely needs an explanation. 2022 saw me make my fourth pilgrimage to Disney World to meet up with my friend @the-pale-servant / @agathe-the-smol, despite my vow to not visit the park until Bob Chapek was fired. I have made it no secret how much I despised the bald-headed, brain-dead, creatively bankrupt loser in charge of the Disney during his tenure, his treatment of the Disney Parks being a key factor. Whereas most people saw the parks as a magical wonderland always ready to be expanded and improved, Bob saw it as a money-printing machine he could run raged without a break. It was disgusting. This was most evident when Jart and I got stuck on four different rides, often times more than once. Though to be fair, we still had an amazing time while there! Still, my continued cynicism against the state of my favorite place on Earth wasn't getting any healthier, so I decided to express my contempt creatively. Welcome to Whimsyland, a theme park opened in 1962 by Matt Whimsy as a celebration of the human spirit and endless imagination. Here you could meet Fred Fox, the company's cartoon mascot currently exiling himself to the Park in response to how the CEO's handling Matt's business. Fred is my Mickey stand-in, though unlike Mickey he makes it clear he hears fan complaints and hates being depicted as the villain. Dancing the charleston beside him is Fiona Fox, cartoon fashion icon that the current CEO keeps exploiting, though Fiona at least uses this to her advantage by continuing to inspire young girls. Along with the rest of my currently in development cast, Whimsyland might become the most perkiest place on the planet once more. Until then, we can at least enjoy these two characters dancing to this.

In case you're wondering why I never posted this, you can thank my questionable coloring choices for that. The orange coloring on Freddy feels fine, but the same can't be said for Fiona's fur color nor for their attire. Like I said, this idea's still a WIP.

6) SOMETHING IN THE WAY, OWL DUDE IN THE RAIN Poor Owl Dude, I don't draw him nearly as much as I should. Luckily, the new story ideas I have in mind with him should help fix that. And no, SIM-N, none of them involve a stove!

7) SAURA, EXPERIMENTAL SKETCH If any Clarktoons dominated a majority of my thoughts this year it would be Fred Fox and Saura, my teenage heroine with the power of transforming into a hyper-evolved dinosaur warrior. Helping matters was the fact that Alec got interested in the idea, collaborating with me on certain elements of her story while also commissioning our friend @zernna to draw her every chance he got. For the record Zerna, I plan on releasing a colored reference of Ms. Bosewick here sometime this year, so if we pay you to draw her again you'll know exactly what she looks like. But first I decided to experiment a little, adding details to Saura's design that ultimately won't be a part of her end design. A rule with character designs in cartoons is that the more lines and details you add, the older a character looks, which is what I felt was the major problem was here. With any luck, Saura's finalized design will look plenty bad@$$ without making her look like an actual fossil.

8) POST-BUMPER: ORIGINS Earlier this year I decided to make myself some mailing labels with Bumper on them, quickly drawing Crocie's adorable little ghost buddy as a mailman. The end result looked mighty cute, ignoring how the post officer used another mailing label to cover up mine. Turns out there's somebody in the world who doesn't find the floating marshmallow cute after all. Weird, right?

And for those of you wishing to see what the end product looked like:

9) FRED FOX Surprising as it sounds, it took me a few tries before settling on Fred Fox as the Whimsyland mascot. My goal was to create a rubberhose character in the same vein as Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Felix the Cat, Bendy, and the Cupheads, while also making it unmistakably my own. So at first I tried a turtle, only to quickly realize that wouldn't be as cute or charming as intended. Next I tried an elephant, which admittedly looked better, but for whatever reason that didn't work with me either. Finally I settled on a fox with a Boston accent named after a running joke from the Angry Video Game Nerd and the rest was history.

10) CHIBIZOWA What you're currently looking at is not the Clarktooniverse's answer to King Ghidora. At least, not at the moment, anyway. All throughout 2022 I had intended on drawing birthday pictures for my friends online, including Zerna, someone who has very kindly drawn a lot of my characters over the last few years. What I had planned for her birthday was a sketch of her girlfriend murd3r3r being dragged to the mall by my mechanized mercenary Candy Banger to find the ultimate birthday present, Coco not being accustomed to the violence Candy brings to any situation. In the end, thanks to some advice I got from Alec, a worn-out Coco gets Zerna a three-headed dragon plushtoy named Chibizowa with Candy giving a thumbs up from the window so the two could have a cute moment together. Now for all of you wondering why I didn't end up making this adorable-sounding gift pic, there's a lot of factors that went into it. The first being time, something I am terrible at managing. The second was not knowing enough about Coco, having to go off what I saw in the pics posted in Zerna's gallery. I didn't want to assume what her personality was like, I'm terribly shy by nature, and matters weren't helped by her own lack of art depicting her aliensona. It's why I'm jumping on Zerna's band wagon by telling you gremlins to hound her for sona designs/more art!! >:'0 For now though, I hope you all enjoy this sketch. Who knows, maybe on day I'll end up making the planned present a reality.

11) ONE LAST FRED FOX And that's all she wrote.... OR IS IT!?

Not included with the DUMPSTER DUDELZ were these two random sketches based on the musical Twisted, which my friend Alec finally convinced me to check out this year. I enjoyed it immensely, even buying the soundtrack and digital recording of the show before drawing their Jafar in the same style as the original Aladdin. Turns out you can make this character look sympathetic. No doubt he'll have a good 2023 as will all of you! That is if you keep dreaming a little harder...
