super cute fraggle cuddles

Most adorable !

Darl sure has his hands full with that one. :) Glad to see you're still drawing, Taral!

I've sometimes wondered what would happen if a Fraggle met an Equestrian (as in MLP:FIM).

Sometime you wanna see something so sweet and wholesome even if you didn't know you needed to see it.

Thanks.

Always loved your clean line work.

Do you still use ballpoint pens for your inking?

I used to, but it's been a long time since I inked anything -- I usually just use a pencil now, then correct and enhance with photoshop. It was largely to increase my speed, but then I began having a bit of trouble with my eyes. It was largely dealt with using reading glasses, but I hate having to do it, so stuck with pencil. It may be only that I've become an old stuck-in-the-mud who doesn't want to pick up old skills again. Also, when I mostly worked in ball point, I only managed to draw about three pictures a month.

I can feel the warmth from here... wonderful...

Butt hugs are best hugs. Thanks for sharing the picture.

Huh. Didn't know people made Fraggle characters. Neat!

There are a few, but most of the fans are very amateurish, and there are virtually no active sites to post either art or writing. A guy at Deviant Art -- "Negaduck" -- has a page. There isn't much activity there, and I haven't even been able to get the owner of the page to update my last contribution. The FR pages at FaceBook seen inactive, but there is a couple of active pages for The Muppets/Muppet Show that have FR posts. Nothing ambitious, however. I mentioned "Heroes and Villains" there, but not a soul replied.

Well, I hope you continue making stuff like this. =) Fraggle Rock was a part of my childhood, even if only because Grandma recorded it off of HBO for us. XD Was still fun to watch the many episodes she recorded!

It's possible to buy the entire series in a boxed set at WalMart for about $35, maybe less. It's worth it to watch in proper order, since the ideas evolve toward an end.

I have more stories to write, including the "origin" of Darl ... which is next in line.

Happy writing! =D

My aim was to keep close to the original, but made allowance for the originals being sock puppets, whose eyes are only ping-pong balls on top of their heads!

I need to be careful to not get carried away, and avoid making them buff or Rubenesque. The should be quite thin in arms and legs, and their bodies lack excessive masculine or feminine character. One other physical conundrum -- do Fraggles have furry arms and legs, or only their bodies? They are made of material that has very different appearance, and it appears most likely that their arms and legs -- like their faces --are nude. But I have a lot of studio production drawings that show evidence that their arms and legs are also furry -- evidently their middles are a lot fluffier, conveniently covering parts that would otherwise be naked. My solution was to adopt fur of two different lengths ... and two different colours.

It's always appreciated when an artist's efforts are noticed.
