Just a couple of things. Came across a jet ski and kayak for Dollar Tree’s fashion dolls and thought they work for Joe and Cobra. I’ve dubbed the Cobra watercraft Daggertooth after an eel of the same name.

For the last few weeks I’ve been trying to do at least one sketch a day. Been trying to stick to five to twenty five-ish minutes per drawing but occasionally go a bit longer. For most of them I’ve been using a toy that I own for reference using a regular mechanical pencil or felt tip pen. I’ll break it up into several post so as to not overload one page. And I’ll put them up in the order I did them. Given my time limitations these are obviously not finished works but I’m encouraged to do some stuff with a bit more polish. Thanks for checking them out. If you are interested in what specific figures I used head over to my Instagram page. https://www.instagram.com/william_degeest/
Here is the cannon again along with a Cobra jet I’ve been calling the Fer-De-Lance made from a Lightyear movie Blast and Battle XL-15. Tore it apart and gutted the action feature so 6″ figures could fit in the cockpit. Also a random remote control motorcycle that I think I bought on clearance at Menards several years ago. Just a quick and dirty repaint on that.
Well, I’ve been in a creative funk for quite some time and, of all things, toys from the movie Lightyear got me to actually do some stuff. This started out as the Plasma Drilling unit and I customized it for use with G.I. Joe Classified figures. This is just a sneak peak, glamour shots of this and maybe one or two other things are forthcoming.
Had the pleasure of guesting on the Back Lot 605 podcast this week! They are doing a month-long series on Ivan Reitman in anticipation of the upcoming release of Ghostbusters: Afterlife and this particular episode was on the 1981 Bill Murray/Harold Ramis comedy, Stripes.
If you dig what you heard, check out some other episodes, and if you really dig, give the show some support on Patreon.
Thanks for having me on, fellas!
