huey and webby sharing a locker!!! i know it's because they're both organized + most likely to share but ohhh... still makes me happy
April 30, 2024 #6 (in which i go on a tangent, and rant about hazbin hotel)
glomgold having these hand drawn slideshows is a funny recurring thing Because it's
- in character, and
- a thing only he does.
this is important to me because it's a Major pet peeve of mine in hazbin hotel and helluva boss
addendum to the #2 point: louie shows drawings too, but in pitch packets, so it's a different medium and feels different. it also still feels right/in character because of course a child's pitch packet comes with hand colored drawings.
glomgold's slideshows and louie's drawings r silly "character-made" visual gags done right, imo! again, one is a character you're not meant to take seriously, and the other is a child, so their silly drawings make SENSE.
compare that to this drawing that alastor supposedly made for the in-universe hotel commercial he filmed.
alastor? alastor. prohibition era radio host people eating fearsome overlord alastor? writing "ship! i guess" and "haha i named it"....... Girl
i know that whole show relies on low hanging fruit for humor, and gee maybe i'm underestimating alastor's sense of whimsy, but it bothers me that the doodles and notes feel so samey. it is disappointing to see a piece of media not even take its own characters' personalities and backgrounds seriously.
i know it appeals to fans who are like "hehe even alastor is stupid" but it's the same! fucking! joke! whenever we see characters showing their work!
and yeah, for blitzø and adam it makes sense they do that, but vox and charlie? man. did you all go to the same shitty school? do you all have a passion for doodling and unfunny, immature side comments? my god
not that characters in adult cartoons can't have whimsy but lord. anyway, go ducktales..... i'm so fucking glad your artists care.
even dewey dew-night says smth about dewey's skills. the artists KNOW the character takes his lil talk show seriously, so you see he put together his set with an eye for quality!!! they even care enough that his kid drawings r noticeably a different style from louie's. nut.
(note 5/24: in the ducktales artbook, there's even a feature on webby's sketches and how someone put thought into what her art style would be like. that's what i'm talking about!!)
all three (glomgold, dewey, and louie) are visual gags done for laughs/smiles, but all three make sense for the characters + are distinct. seriously. thank god for some good fucking food. ok back to the actual show

also. louie is the one who gets drawn with darker eyebrows sometimes (rarely the other two, if at all), so i am inclined to assume that in della's drawing: L = dewey, R = louie, B = huey
(i know i just did a big rant about shitty silly drawings as visual gags in hazbin. but della's shitty drawings are still distinct from the others and in character to Me)
