Cartoon Heroes Paper Cut-Outs

Tweety & Sylvester

Staples of the Loonytoons pantheon, Sylvester J. Pussycat Sr. and his sometimes nemesis/sometimes ally Tweety the Canary were a pair of pets who lived with a kindly Granny.  The conniving Sylvester was always plotting a means of eating Tweety yet the yellow canary was far too clever and always stayed a step ahead.  Later, Sylvester and Tweety would join forces alongside Granny to solve a series of mysteries. ��

Sylvester first appeared in the 1945 Merrie Melodies short ‘Life with Feathers’; while Tweety first appeared in the 1942 ‘A Tale of Two Kitties.’  Both characters were originally voiced by the great Mel Blanc.

Rough drawing for DVD cover art for “Daffy Duck’s Quackbusters.” With a new release on DVD, there was a request to “refresh” original poster art from 1988. Staying close to the spirit and layout of the original, I made adjustments to feature the characters’ faces and poses, to give a quick read in a retail setting.

I learned it was Looney Tunes 95th anniversary a few days ago, so I'm making 100 character posters for my own desktop.

Screen/TV head characters, any object head characters, and a literal TV character that are better than Vox

NOTE: Originally I was going to add only screen/TV head characters, but I included any object head characters.

I hate Vox because he's basically Vivienne Medrano when she had beef with DollCreep.

Happy 80th Birthday Sylvester

Created by Friz Freleng and designed by Hawley Pratt, this lispy aggressive black cat made his debut to the world in a 1945 Merrie Melodies short, titled “Life with Feathers”, the infamously darkly comedic cartoon featuring the first onscreen appearance of Sylvester.

Proving to be a success with audiences, Sylvester would appear in numerous of shorts paired with other characters, Porky Pig, an unnamed woodpecker, Hector, Foghorn Leghorn, Henry Hawk, Sylvester Jr. and, mostly memorably and famously, Tweety and later, Speedy Gonzales. The latter two would become one of the best and most iconic duo in animation history, rival only by Tom & Jerry. 

Sylvester, like Porky, Bugs and Daffy, would also be the subject of many of the directors getting a taste of the character. Robert McKimson’s Sylvester would often be paired with either Hippety Hopper (the kangaroo who Sylvester mistakes for a giant mouse) and/or Sylvester Jr.. Chuck Jones would pair Sylvester with Porky Pig in only three shorts revolving around a formula of a silent Sylvester trying to warn his owner, Porky, about the dangers of there surroundings much to Porky’s ignorance (Scaredy Cat, Claws for Alarms and Jumpin’ Juipter). Bob Clampett’s Sylvester (Kitty Kornered) was very much like Freleng’s, with the only difference was in his design, his yellow eyes. Arthur Davis’s Sylvester (Catch as Cats Can) was more very different from the more familiar Freleng Sylvester, in that his voice and overall personality was more dimwitted.

Sylvester is perhaps most noted for sharing nearly the same lispy voice strongly similar to Daffy, only that Daffy’s voice was sped-up in post-production. To this day, it remains debatable where the inspiration for Daffy and Sylvester iconic lispy voices come from. The common belief being it was inspired by producer Leon Schlesinger who was said to speak with a “slight lisp”, but Mel Blanc says denies this claim, same with Friz Freleng.

“Some people think that the voice of Daffy Duck was basically copied from the voice of Leon Schlesinger. I can't confirm that statement. Maybe Mel Blanc just happened to hit on the voice without any thought of Leon Schlesinger. Besides, I don't recall that Leon had any strong lisp like Daffy at all.” 

- Friz Freleng

The interesting fact of Sylvester that, like Wile E. Coyote and Chuck Jones’s Daffy, Sylvester was a loser, with only very few shorts depicting Sylvester as the winner, one of those cases being my personal favorite Back Alley Operoar, Kit for Cat, Bell Hoppy and Doggone Cats.
