A Cuphead fan on Tumblr noticed this cool detail in one of the backgrounds. One of the prizes in the arcade is a toy dinosaur that looks a lot like Winsor McCay’s Gertie the Dinosaur
‼️‼️And now for something exciting‼️‼️
I will be having one of my illustrations featured in a gallery this weekend on May 21st & again on May 28th from 3-7. Press Start for Art is a gallery dedicated to video games of all kinds, so obviously had to go with the Cuphead DLC
Spent my night doodling some Flapjacks. Mainly these are clean ups of
@LambSpammy
Adult Flapjacks sketches I did the other day (and one single baby jack )
Took inspiration from the hay maze flashback & that cursed billboard of Kettle (also it’s about damn time I draw that teddy bear. It’s missing patches since I headcanon they come later as the boys get older)
Alternative Universe of The Cuphead Show where everything is the same but the Devil wears this silly costume based off the deleted Over The Garden Wall character, Old Scratch
So…………am I the only one who actually headcanons that Cuphead & Mugman never had a mother or father but were made by the storks specifically for Elder Kettle (cause they forgot to deliver kids to him sooner OR he has been fighting them off cause he didn’t want kids)
I lied I ended up doing something for Father’s Day........sorta. Been toying around with drawing my headcanon on how these 3 became a family in a form of a kids book. This was just a mini experiment so enjoy this out of context moment of their first meeting & Happy Father’s Day!
No one asked but here’s some notes I did while coming up with those baby cup designs. Played around with outfits, head accessories, and style changes depending on the animation era. Watched a ton of 1920’s-1930’s cartoons in the process.

if you're sad this is a sign to draw your two biggest comfort characters as the steven meme. yeah my ocs my comfort character. yeah my ooak lagoonas my comfort character.
Earliest designs for Teenage Flapjack & colored expressions. Figured he would have been 16-17for this project. I wasn’t so sure about adding the chin hair so I did a poll on Instagram to see which worked better. The people wanted the chin hair.
Seasons Greetings! Made this special card for the Cuphead x Fleischer Studios event last week. Wishing you & yours love ones a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year🎄❤️
So I had originally planned to do a small batch of Cuphead Show inspired Valentines to kick off the show’s premiere later this week but only 2 were made. Luckily, those two are of our heroes, Cuphead & Mugman. Enjoy ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙
I don’t think I ever posted this on Twitter yet but for those participating in the the Cuphead Show Q&A & signing on
@StreamilyLive
tomorrow may have noticed a print of a mustachio Mugman. This was a fun project I did for
@FrankTodaroVO
a while back.
That last thing Joe mentioned about the boys being adopted really makes me want to elaborate on that fake screenshot I did last year. Been planning this since last Fall and wanted to make it like a storybook.
(Long story short, Kettle nearly killed a stork for doing his job)
Happy Hispanic heritage month 🇲🇽❤️
I’m Nikki & I’m half Mexican. I’m an illustrator & character designer. I love replicating different art styles. Really into stuff like Cuphead & Fleischer Studios.
QRT if you’re Hispanic
Happy Hispanic heritage month!! 🇵🇷
I’m Kip and I’m half Puerto Rican! I mostly draw Cuphead fanart but I dabble in other fandoms, OC content, and I cosplay too!
QRT if you’re Hispanic!!
Uh hi so I was trying to find references of Cuphead and Mugman running at a 3/4 view and I discovered this cursed frame in the process that I needed to share
Ok so imagine the song The Devil Went Down to Georgia but it’s with Cuphead and the Devil and it’s a piano (or organ) play off cause they know how to play it
