Check out super kid Dominck wearing an amazing El Tigre costume for Halloween!!! I especially love his kick butt poses and charmingly mischievous attitude. Dominck, you are AWESOME.


Special thanks to the loving and creative parents Valiant & Elaina (who dressed up like White Pantera & Maria!) for allowing me to post these inspiring pics. Thank you guys!!!

El Tigre PS2 video game

All these designs were done for the El Tigre PS2 video game. Super genius Tigre writer Scott Kreamer and I wrote the story, Steve Lambe & Miah Alcorn did a bunch of cool skeleton henchmen designs, Roman Laney & Gerald de Jesus designed & painted some cool Aztec inspired BGs and I got to design Mikla, a new Az-Tech super villain that was going to be a big part of Season 3.

I have yet to pass the first level.

too hot for TV!

As I was getting the next big post ready I found some of my designs that were a deemed a little too risky to be on the show...

Where can I see EL TIGRE?

This is the number one e-mail question we seem to get. Here's what I know...

TV:
It still airs in the US on Nicktoons Network. And on Canal 5 (my favorite channel as a kid) and Nickelodeon in Mexico. We have been told it's airing everywhere in the world by fans but we don't really know which channels.

ON LINE:
You can see all 26 full length episodes on TurboNick for free!

Itunes has the first 19 episodes and will hopefully post the last 7 soon.

As far as I know, you can find every single episode on the bit torrent sites out there but the quality is all over the place.

DVD:
There's a DVD selling in Latin America called "Dia De Los Malos." I don't know if they'll ever make them for the US or any other market. Keep your fingers crossed.


VIDEOGAMES:
There's a PS2 and a Nintendo DS games out there.

BOOKS:
There's the big NICKTOONS book which has an El Tigre chapter (with lots of development designs) and a ton of art from all the other amazing Nick shows like Ren & Stimpy, Teenage Robot, Invader Zim, Avatar, Sponge Bob, Mighty B, etc...

And of course there's the McDonalds toys....

And the Tazos...

And I forgot (thanks Jack) about the T-Shirts we made for Nick.com...

Please let us know if it's airing in your country (thanks Romson from Russia)!
