Description I was watching a show that involved bowling tonight, and was reminded of how Danny referred to Eddy's polo shirt as a "bowling shirt" on the season 2 DVD. I had previously associated this statement with the tons of bowling balls and pins in Eddy's possession and decided his family's really into bowling, but it was high time that I finally DRAW it!

So here ya go!

Why does Eddy's mom have hairy arms?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AnimatEd In reply to CHCHcartoons [2011-11-16 21:08:31 +0000 UTC]

A. Because that's how her arms were in 'Smile For the Ed'
B. Because some women have hairy arms.
C. Because Eddy's desire to be tall and hairy comes from growing up in a family of hairy giants.

I didn't ever hear that commentary or what ever but I always thought of Eddy's shirt as a bowling shirt too! (probably because I worked in a bowling pro-shop for years and my husband and father-in-law were PBA bowlers) but I always thought of his family bowling and Eddy getting into bowling as an adult. In fact, I had thoughts in my head of drawing Eddy as an adult wearing a bowling league shirt like he was about to go out to the lanes.

It was an interview with Danny on the season 2 DVD. Yeah, it seems that boy's got bowling in his blood! It was his destiny to become the world's greatest bowler... : D

Honestly, Eddy needs that in his life.
He's not that athletic (despite what he probably thinks)
but he's pretty competitive. He needs something that he can actually be great at and not just think he's great at.
He can be Eddy! King of the Lanes!

Imagine how it would be if Eddy's shirt became popular with the all the kids in the Cul-de-sac. Jimmy would be saying "Oh, how trendy", Johnny would share his excitment with Plank at how lucky they are to have such a shirt, while Kevin goes on rolling a bolling ball at Rolf snugging around in the shirt and/or picking at it.

Eddy would totally freak out.

...wow, this looks really good! And fits very nicely... I never even considered his shirt as a bowling shirt, but now I totally see it. Nice job on Eddy's parents, all his Dad is missing is a four pack of cheap beer and his Mom a shopping cart in Wal Mart. (what would the equivalent of Wal Mart be in the EEnE universe?)

AnimatEd In reply to Edoholic [2010-10-03 19:19:48 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I wouldn't have considered it a bowling shirt either, but Danny called it that on a DVD and it got me interested...

I basically had to create an EEnE equivalent of Wal Mart for my movie. XD I modeled it after the mini-games shop in the 'Scam of the Century' game, and gave it the most generic name ever (Shop Mart) because I couldn't find any good supermarket names in the show. XP There was a small Shop in 'Out With the Old..' but it didn't have a name besides "Shop."

What did you use to determine how fat you draw Eddy's mom? I was watching Quick Shot Ed on youtube today and I noticed this dress [link] which seems to be shaped for a healthy weight, I would think. Being in the attic could mean it doesn't fit anymore, so I looked at the parents closet from the Christmas special and the dresses in there [link] I think are creased in a way that show she is fat, but they're not obese looking.

AnimatEd In reply to GabbyLogic [2010-04-24 16:25:55 +0000 UTC]

I draw his mom fat because her giant 'Smile For The Ed' arm would look really weird on a more slim woman. XP I DID look at a bunch of their clothes for earlier references for them and noticed that his parents' clothes seem relatively trim considering how fat their arms suggest they are, and their photos in BPS suggest they'd have prominent chin and neck features. My excuse is that they used to be less fat (in Bro Show they should have necks, in present-day Eddy drawings I have them lose their necks). Those 'Quick Shot Ed' dresses actually look a bit bulkier than the JJJ ones, but the JJJ ones also look a bit looser.

Most of the evidence points toward them being fairly trim, except for their actual appearances. XD Mainly I just make them fat because I think they're funnier that way.

GabbyLogic In reply to AnimatEd [2010-04-24 18:06:49 +0000 UTC]

To me, the dress in 'Quick Shot Ed' looks a little plump while the ones in JJJ seem to have a wider midsection and back. Although that may have to do with the different angles the dresses are shown in. Or I'm just not seeing it the right way.

In their (arms') actual appearances they are also drawn to make them look like giants, pretty much. XD They probably are funnier being so fat though.

...Going back to the JJJ closet, that red shirt (I'm assuming is the father's) is just about as long as the red dress. Doesn't that mean there would be a greater height difference between the parents than how you draw them?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

AnimatEd In reply to GabbyLogic [2010-04-24 18:35:09 +0000 UTC]

I toned down the giant and increased the fat so that they'd be not-too-horribly tall, but still have the arms make sense on them. : D

That's a good point but meeeehhhh, I try not to get too concerned over stuff like that, because I don't think the background designers were really thinking too hard about what the parents should look like. XP Dad's jackets look about the same length as Mom's, so even in the same shot they're not very consistent. Once again, I really focus my designs more on their actual appearances in the show, and their arms suggest that they would be almost identical to each other.

I put into proportion with his body and just made the whole dad huge (same thing goes for his mom, since we saw her giant arm in an episode too). It's still a pretty big arm compared to Eddy, though.

You are both brilliant and weird for remembering to put them in bowling shoes (WHICH ARE THE EDS' COLOURS. WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? XD)

You nailed Eddy's dad's expression - now we know where Eddy's brother gets his rapey face. His dad looks like he would nail that bowling ball if the finger holes were big enough! D:

Bro: (to girl) Ready to get it on baby?
Girl: Oh yeah...

Despite the fact that he wears the bowling shirt every day, Eddy doesnt look to happy about his weekly family trip to the peachcreek alley :\ Maybe he had a scam planned, or DD was forbidden to come becaus he couldn't lift the ball...
