How NOT to draw Cecil Moon!

You know those annoying "How to Draw" books? It shows a cirkle and then maybe a triangle and the third panel is the full rendition of a kreature that took the artist three hours to do the shading on the upper lip? Well, this is Dean's homage to that sort of thing, except he decided to be kreative which I was none to well pleased!

The Many Faces of Cecil Moon

Every good kharakter has to have a repertoire of facial expressions at his disposal. Here Dean was doodling with different ideas to expand my akting kapabilities. He must have felt that my frozen cheezy grin was too prediktable. My boy Kalvin had amazing facial expressions and I think Dean tried his hardest to imitate that. (My eyes were inspired by Sonik the Hedgehog, Dean klaims).

Praktice makes Purrfekt!

Many times Dean put me through my paces before he komitted to the strip. This was our rehearsal for strip #2. Vakuuming was replaced later by laundry. Man, my room got klean!


Rehearsals kan be grueling! Posted by Picasa

Humble Beginnings

This was taken from Dean's high skhool Alegebra II notebook. I wonder whatever happened to the ole Hag, anyway?

Variation on Cecil's Debut

This is the original take on my entrance to kollege. Dean changed it later thinking that I should be humbled by the Almighty since I was going to appear in a Khristian newsletter. And the aktual phrases are "The world is my oyster" and "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicykle."

Enter Cecil Moon

I arrived on kampus the same time this was published in the "Campus Christian Fellowship Newsletter." Ah, me publik!!!

The Legend of Cecil Moon

Many moons ago a young dreamer named Dean Jones doodled a remarkable specimen of feline purrfektion in his 9th grade physikal science klass and named him Cecil. In order to give Cecil personality he added the first “kool” word he kould think of which turned out to be Moon. Thus, the charming, witty and ultra intelligent kat known as MOI was born.

Cecil (that's me) was akcepted to The University of Kollege on a minority skholarship in a komic strip kalled “Cecil Moon: Kollege Kat” for the Kampus Khristian Fellowship newsletter. There Cecil learned what it was like to be on his own for the first time. The freedom, the responsibility, the kute kitties. Yep, kollege was good! But it was short lived. Soon, Cecil found himself in the working world at a newspaper answering kalls from klassified kustomers (much like his kreator). The second strip was kalled appropriately enough “Cecil Moon: Klassified Kat”. Cecil has also appeared in wedding and birthday kards. He waits not so patiently for his kreator to get off his lazy bum and kreate more adventures.

This blog is dedikated to the greatest kat ever to grace blank paper everywhere, ME!!!

P.S. Any resemblances to actual persons, living or dead, is merely a cheap and blantant rip off of the one and only true Cecil Moon and is purely koincidental.
