Hey, so, I was scrolling through the internet and found an old obscured Angelfire site that hasn't been updated since 2004, and on it I found this screencap of a... Spy Kids cartoon??? Apparently there was a Spy Kids cartoon that aired on ABC in the '00s, likely on the One Saturday Morning block. I have not heard of it at all until now. Thanks to whoever you are for recording this on VHS.
I did a bit more digging and apparently it aired on Toon Disney as well, as I found a smaller capture of a Toon Disney airing, this time on a Blogger site.
What is going on? What time did this cartoon air, and why haven't we heard much about it?
...
And scene. Had you fooled, didn't I? S:)
So you may have noticed that these screencaps are obviously fake. Hope they were convincing enough. I've been wanting to make fake screencaps of my Spy Kids cartoon pitch for a while now. This was not only an opportunity to test out simplified, possibly animation-friendly designs of the characters for the screencap, but also to play around with a very useful VHS effect and test out a cloud brush. I also used these fake screenshot and RGB split effect tutorials by @sassatello and @23i2ko which have been a big help in making a convincing enough screencap.
While I drew and coloured the first screencap, with a comic artstyle meant to emulate the likes of shows such as Ben 10 and TMNT '03, the second screencap is more of an edited capture of the Spy Kids title from the trailer, with a "the series" title at the bottom (using the Ethnocentric RG font used in many Spy Kids ads and merchandise), as if the intro was finishing up (the theme song is definitely gonna be Spy Kids Save the World by Fonda).
You can see the screencaps sans the VHS effect and screenbugs down below.
I also made more "captures" with different effects on different channels in different sizes, including "captures" of an ABC3 airing that I ended up not using, which you can also see below. The ABC, Toon Disney and ABC3 screenbugs are by RabbitFilmMaker, YourDailyDeviantArt and UnitedWorldMedia on Deviantart.
I have been thinking of ideas for more sets of fake screencaps, so let me know if you want me to "find" more screencaps. 😉
And let me know if you would've loved to have seen an earlier Spy Kids cartoon and what you think it would be like?

🎃Happy (late) Halloween🎃
Yeah this is late. I apologise for that. I hope I'm not too late though.
Decided to go for a blacklight look. I listened to various spooky (mostly from video games) music while working on this piece, including the House of Horrors and Pitch Black Horror music from Kirby and the Forgotten Land. I colour picked most of the blacklight colours from @donutdrawsthings' blacklight palette, with some alterations.
The costumes for Carmen and Juni aren't new, they're from an earlier Halloween piece I did (which I haven't shared bc it has an old OC of mine I'm not using anymore that requires a lot of explaining and context, though im still pretty proud of it) back when I was in year 11. I've made some updates to the costumes since then. Although I didn't make the flannel pattern, I copied it from iStock.
I've shown my sister @laurenfoxmakesthings the progression of the art and I'd ask some insight on what I could do or if there was anything to alter, and it was really helpful!
The lineart was what took forever, along with my laptop battery being a pain to me. And the shadows could do with some redoing, but the piece is late enough as it is.
Hope you enjoy this anyways! ^^
