Meet Neslo

 First up of the four: Neslo. Don't let him fool you. He doesn't know why he's smiling. Probably because you're looking at him. Smile and nod. 

Neslo

 This is the nonsense-kid from your childhood who made you come outside to partake in his crazy adventure/games or see a discovery made in the neighborhood (which would most likely be roadkill at that age).

 He's the kid who will invite you to come join him in looking for hornets’ nest and before you have time to refuse, you find yourself already throwing rocks at one alongside him.

 Like most boys, he enjoys the thrill of adventure and loves the rewards of candy, ice-cream, money and the like. 

 If he hears you're having a birthday party, he will crash that party without an invitation and convince your mom he's a friend from school so he may benefit in your shindig of cake and games. If found out he'll make a hasty retreat out the window with cake (and maybe with one of your presents) in hand. 

 Other interests include hats and costumes....just to name a few. Though, he hates boringness. Nothing displeases him like wasting the time and day doing nothing. So to avoid wasting a potential afternoon, he'll pull some sort of plan out of his hat. It may not be safe, but it's something. 

 This hyperactive kid has spent his childhood romping around neighborhood and exploring the magical wilderness of the countryside of his back yard. He lives alone with his mom in a house left to them by his father.


 That's all for now about Neslo. You should probably move on before he gets any ideas to involve you in. Check back tomorrow to learn about his BFF (Bruiser Fiend Fungarah!)

[Note: That F at the end, totally not a word.]

Nchanted Night of Dinner & Comedy

 Gonna try and keep to having a daily post. I've accrued a handful of stuff to show. Below are some panels and a layout for a Comedy (Dinner) Club scene in the works. 




 Nchanted woodland animals like to occasionally unwind with dinner and entertainment after a long day; the kids from town find it fun as well! Are kids even allowed to be admitted into these type of clubs?

 Look forward to what update tomorrow has in store!

What it's all about in a Magic Nutshell





Firstly
Let me take the time to welcome you and thank you for checking out this page.

This page will be dedicated to presenting a slew of artwork and ideas revolving around a personal Project titled Nchanted County (for now). This project will be developed in hopes of potentially producing an original animated short (or series) in the future.

So what's the deal?
On March 29th (2012), Nickelodeon Animation Studios will be screening number of  pitched ideas to be produced in a block of animated shorts! I will be pitching this project to them in hopes of getting a chance to produce a piece of this idea into a 60-second animated short. Who knows, maybe something bigger will come from this exciting experience!

So what is this idea?
It's about a group of kids spending the best of their childhood, in a small town neighboring an enchanted forest. This isn't your conventional magic forest where talking animals are stuffed with fluff, rainbows, and cotton candy. This is a diverse functioning community of animals that have things to do, places to go and need to get by on a month to month basis. For these kids, its a whole foreign world to be discovered, but all the weird and unexpected isn't limited to the forest; under every normal looking rock and tree is something new and out of the ordinary.

In a nutshell, the spirit of this project is about tackling the familiar with pizzazz and encountering the strange & new with a curious eye. About embarking on days that encompass the spirit of childhood and creating memories that many would look back on with vivid nostalgia.

TL;DR
It's a cartoon about kids being curious kids in their backyards...which also has a community of personified woodland creatures.


So if I remotely captured any interested or got you reaching of your childhood nostalgia goggles, please follow along as I post more visuals to this project in the days to come!
