Jockstrap Academy - Ruff Line Up
🕑 Added 2019-09-08 11:24:46 +0000 UTCOnce upon a time, I had this idea called Jockland - a rambling, unfocused excuse to draw muscle boys in tight shorts and bare midriffs - over time it has evolved into Jockstrap Academy - an animated series. Animated series are really hard to make so who knows if it will ever get to the finish line, but the development is always fun.
Jockland was inspired by my childhood obsession with coded homoerotic moments in the TV and movies of the 80's and 90's. I loved watching B-movie sex comedies, anti-bullying episodes of sitcoms, Bud Bundy get manhandled and pretty much any moment where the male form was objectified. Jockstrap Academy has the same inspiration at its roots, but is focused to lampoon the political incorrectness in 1980's sex comedies specifically. The misogyny, the homophobia/eroticism, the bullying, the patriarchal privilege, toxic fandom, etc.
I've been jumping in and out of the scripts and storyboards for months now - and I know that character designs are not important for this stage, but I really like to have a solid idea that can be worked through while I am storyboarding. So that's what these designs above represent, my updated versions of the primary jocks.

Ok, now that I got the concept, I have to say I loved it. Yes to sexualized male cartoon characters! Keep this coming!
