MOON A/FX PROTOTYPE DRAWINGS
Hey Gang!!! I thought I'd share a drawing I did of the Mooneyes prototype A/FX funny car. I really dig the way 50's experimental prototype cars look and wanted to combine it with a Mooneyes look. Being an animator and cartoonist, my drawings still seem to retain a cartoony edge. Enjoy! Take care and thanks for stopping by. Your Cartoon Drag Fink Pal...Jeff
