Being a relatively new follower, I was pleasantly surprised to learn you're an Elvis fan, and I have two questions. What is this about an "Animal albums" series, and what did you think of that animated show, Agent Elvis? On the latter, I could take it or leave it.
Last year I started a little personal project where I redrew album covers / artists I enjoy as animals that I felt fit them.
Tumblr media
I haven't seen Agent Elvis. This is going to sound like such a nitpicky gripe but I couldn't get past Matthew McConaughey's voice. Elvis Presley is probably the easiest human being to impersonate EVER -- so to hear McConaughey's 'give us nothing' approach made me recoil. I never advanced beyond watching the trailer.
That being said, I think Elvis's design in the show is very charming ! I'm a big fan of Robert Valley's work and I enjoy the fact that, in his own words, he "wanted him (Elvis) to look adorable and dangerous."
He understood the assignment.
