DID YOU KNOW: A spin-off game to the Epic Mickey franchise was planned called 'Epic Donald'. Starring Donald in the titular role, the planned game would've been heavily based off of the old DuckTales comics. A prototype remains lost. For more info:

Pro Tip; “Aspiring” “Eventual” and “Hopeful” are words to leave out of your twitter profile if you want to be taken seriously for gigs. As I’ve said before, if you draw you’re an artist. If you write you’re a writer. Don’t downplay it because you haven’t been paid yet

Let’s learn how to draw proper cartoon hats. We’ll start with one of the ones I have experience in. Darkwing Duck wears an exaggerated wide brimmed fedora (or slouch hat.) The hat should look like it actually fits on the head so width of the crown should be as wide as the head.

One time I was discussing DW’s helmet with @TadStones I never drew him wearing the helmet while riding the Ratcatcher. I thought it made him seem more “Dangerous”. Tad’s response was an over-the-glasses look of disapproval.

Hat Tutorial 3- Scrooge McDuck wears a silk top hat to befit his station as the richest duck in the world. Not collapsable like an Opera hat or made of wool like a Coachman’s hat, the topper is acceptable for both day or nighttime formal wear and adventuring.

My one comment for now. Nailed it. The DT crew captured the fun & heart from the original show. The voices and animation were spectacular. And most importantly they share with me the core belief that Darkwing Duck looks like a noob if he wears a helmet while riding the Ratcatcher
