I finally finished my new huge illustration based on one my favorite show, The Muppets! Jim Henson’s work is one of the reason I’m drawing now and it shaped my taste in movies or stories. This illustration is a little tribute to his gigantic creative work 💜

The illustration will be available during Thought Bubble convention in November!

Shrimp? Prawn? It's all the same to Floyd. Shorty is shorty.

I've been getting a lot of Pepe videos on my FYP, and I felt inspired.

New Muppet Princess Bride drawing! I know some folks will want Fozzie to have a way bigger role in Muppet Princess Bride, but honestly I feel like the role of Yellin is perfect for Fozzie. This line in particular is already so very Fozzie, I can hear him saying it so clearly in my head.  Fun fact, I had to redraw the second panel because for some reason in my memory it was Westley that gave Fezzik the order to rip Yellin's arms off. I almost wish I left it, just because the idea of dear sweet Kermit asking for arms to be ripped off is kinda hilarious to me.

help i can't stop making these

it's important to note that while some are in the same category, their motivations are different:

•pepe is being annoying on purpose but bean bunny is just a lil shithead

•piggy thinks sweetums is annoying, stat+wal just want more space in the car and sweetums is the biggest, and also the bit of sweetums always getting left behind on road trips was too perfect for this

•rizzo has the good snacks but refuses to share. swedish chef has... food? and is very enthusiastically offering it to his friends but nobody has taken him up on it

•electric mayhem only plays bangers, don't get me wrong, but in my head sgt pepper was playing "Fugue for Frog" (muppet show S1 last episode i think) on repeat to annoy kermit and the rest of the band was vibing until kermit flipped

thank you i put way too much thought into this

(i found the chart template on google so i don't know who made it but pls lmk if you do)

Muppet Casting Rules

Because you can't just do whatever you want when you're casting the muppets.

Rule #1:You get ONE Human celebrity actor to play a character. This can be a main protagonist, a villain, a joke character, whoever fits best, but you only get one TRUE "celebrity" guest.

Rule #2: You may have multiple celebrity cameos, but their characters must appear only once and then never again, otherwise the celebrity counts as your one true celebrity role.

Rule #3: You may have two additional non-celebrity human actors to play roles where necessary. Generally this should be one man/boy and one woman/girl, but gender is a construct and this rule can be flexible depending on the roles in question.

Rule #4: Muppets should not be cast as multiple characters unless it is a story where two roles are traditionally played by the same actor (ie, the wolf and the prince in Into the Woods). Each muppet should only have one character in the story that they play.

Rule #5: The exception to rule number 4 is Miss Piggy, who may play multiple roles (as she does in Muppet Wizard of Oz) if the roles all make sense for her to play. This is both because she is really the only female muppet of note, and because, let's face it darling, she has the range.

Rule #6: You get ONE Unique Muppet per show. This should only be used once all other possible casting options have been exhausted, but an original muppet may be designed in order to fill a role that's particularly difficult to cast with current existing muppets and the One Celebrity and Additional Humans have already been used.

Rule #7: Background characters can be a mix of human and muppets, the ratio is dependent on the story itself. However, background characters are only really worth mentioning in the case of musicals, when discussing ensemble pieces.

Rule #8: Finally, any and all of these rules are in fact breakable if the end result is funny enough to justify it.
