We are back my
CRAZIES!!! One of the more popular art trends happening on social media these days is the "Draw This In Your Style" challenge. Basic premise is an artist posts a drawing they did and encourage others to draw said art in their own unique style. I've taken part in quite a few of them as they are fun to do and are a great way to sharpen our skills as artists. They're also a really great way to get some fan art circulating around the interwebs, so I decided I'd try and get a few themes going myself, the first of which saw many artists giving their takes on the classic exploding bloomers gag from the August 2012
M&M comic. For my second go around, I decided the ante must be upped, and there was no
CRAZIER moment from the series than the comic below...
For those new to the blog or simply don't remember, Mike and Mindy took part in an epic storyline in the spring of 2013 where they miss the school bus and attempt to get to school quickly using a whole method of Wile E. Coyote-type devices, each of which fails miserably. Their last ditch effort involves them inflating themselves with compressed air and then using deflation as a means to propel themselves to school, which does actually work, but only ends with more misery as they realize that they'd had the day off the whole time! Talk about a whole lotta effort for nothing?!? Well, the comic to this day is still considered by
M&M fans to be among their five funniest with the puffed panel in particular getting the biggest laughs. Fast forward eight years later. "Draw This In Your Style' is a thing and I got a little curious. Would anyone WANT to draw the panel below in they own distinct styles?
Turns out that quite a few pals were more than happy to draw these pumped pals! So much so, that it's gonna take four weeks to cover them all! So put on some stretchy clothes, sit back, relax and scroll down to get your fill of fan art goodness! Enjoy...

Special mention is warranted for my dear pal Haruka, who not only animated this, but added Bubble Fox to the mix and insisted that she and her cat's cartoon likenesses substitute for Mike and Mindy in the piece! I absolutely loved this!
And that's all for the first part of this MASSIVE fan art extravaganza! Ten more wild takes of this classic M&M moment are coming next week, so stay "Tooned!" Until then, take care, stay safe and I'll catch y'all later!
