"Animaniacs Crew as Lupin's Crew"
Yakko The Third: "Hello, Inspector Scratchy! Never thought you'd find us here at Fort Knox so fast. What's your secret?"
Inspector Scratchensniff: "I bought Ralph new running shoes"
Four thieves have just pulled of a major bank heist, and two inspectors have pulled off said thieves' disguise.
Anyone's who's seen the last ballpoint pen sketch post I did will recognize this scene.
I had already drawn quite a few characters from Animaniacs cosplaying as various characters from Lupin the Third.
 Buster Bunny as Goemon, Dot as Fujiko, Wakko as Jigen, and of course Yakko as the notorious wolf thief!
But I hadn't drawn Zenigata yet, and I was really torn on who it could be. Scratchensniff has the smarts, strictness, and determination while Ralph has the stamina, willpower, and of course speed.
So I figured in this scenario, why not both?. Make em' a team!
It had been a while since Id done any serious inking with my art pens. I didn't plan on using a lot of colored pencils for this one, but one of the sets of markers I used, despite being labeled as alcohol based, behaved like water-based ones. They were streaky and bled into some of the finer line work I did.
The only other slight issue I have with this was that the scanner I used to upload this flattened out some of the colors and diluted some of the contrast. Even with some post edits to this, it's not perfect to how it actually looked.
Oh well, I still love it!

The Evolution of Violence and the Macabre in Animaniacs
Nah this isn't gonna be some essay or something, I just think it's kinda funny how Animaniacs goes from having to put a smiley face on a bat to get away with Wakko hitting someone with it, and having to change the name of a segment from "Death or Consequences" to "Meatballs or Consequences" in season 1...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
...to season 5, where Wakko can be shown burying a corpse, and Wakko's Wish, where the Warners kick Salazar out a closed window at a large height, shattered glass and everything (after which the movie implies he gets mauled to death by dogs)...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
...to the reboot where they just straight up have a character be covered in blood onscreen, and there's a series of segments literally called "Murder Pals".

SPOILER screenshots from the PATB Masterclass
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
These made me smile so much! I love the art style they're drawn in. Seeing any tiny glimpse of my puppy children makes my day at this point.
And the Masterclass as a whole was pretty good, too. Gives me hope that brands still see value in Animaniacs, which gives me hope there will be more down the line. They did possibly drop some hints at a movie, as well.

"Ballpoint Pen Sketches on Feb 16
Here's a sketch I've been working on and off on for the past couple of days. It's one I'm definitely planning on redrawing into a full color piece in the near future.
The Warners and friends have just pulled off a bank heist, and two inspectors have just pulled off their disguise.
Since I had already drawn Yakko as the notorious thief Lupin, I knew I had to draw his adversary Zenigata/Pops.
I couldn't figure out who to pick in this scenario, Dr. Scratchensniff has his strict nature and determination, but Ralph the Guard has the willpower and stamina for the chase.
So I thought, why not make em a pair?

Are the Warners Looney Tunes?
Well, no. Officially, Animaniacs and Looney Tunes are separate franchises.
In-universe however...well...
In Animaniacs, there is already a character who's established to be an (ex?)Looney Tune in-universe, Slappy.
Tumblr media
The Warners themselves debuted in Buddy cartoons in-universe.
Tumblr media
Buddy in real life actually is an official Looney Tune, so if that's still the case in Animaniacs (and we have no real reason to assume it isn't) any characters who starred alongside him in his cartoons would be Looney Tunes too, right?
Tumblr media
That's not even mentioning the fact that Slappy and the Warners are all kind of like Bugs Bunny (Yakko especially).
There's also the fact that Animaniacs literally shares a universe with Tiny Toons, which IS part of the Looney Tunes franchise (as a spin-off):
Tumblr media
Ralph himself is actually from Tiny Toons, not Animaniacs!
Tumblr media
(Mary Hartless and Mr Skullhead originated from Tiny Toons too.)
There's also the fact that Pinky, Elymra and the Brain exists, and although nowadays it's considered non-canon, back when it was new it seemed to function essentially as a sequel series/retooled Pinky and the Brain season 5.
Sometimes the Looney Tunes themselves will appear in Animaniacs too:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
You could argue that doesn't mean much considering characters from a lot of Warner Bros stuff show up in Animaniacs because of the show's meta and satirical nature, but the Warners themselves sometimes appear in Looney Tunes stuff as well (in addition to their appearance in Tiny Toons Spring Break).
For example, in the Duck Dodgers episode "Pig Planet", these three characters, who are voiced by Rob Paulsen, Tress MacNeille and Jess Harnell, appear:
Tumblr media
They have the exact same voices as the Warners, they're characterized as three chaotic kids, they have a similar naming convention (Porko, Puerco and Sow), they're dressed like the Warners (except for Porko), Puerco's tongue is hanging out like Wakko's and Porko even does Yakko's "Uhhhh" in the episode. I'm counting this as an actual appearance of the Warners. I get why people would say they're just meant to reference the Warners, nothing more, considering the Warners aren't pigs; but Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd aren't aliens, yet K'chutha Sa'am and The Fudd are considered basically just the Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd of Duck Dodgers. Perhaps alternate versions of the characters, sure, but still essentially those characters, and I see Porko, Puerco and Sow the same way in relation to the Warners.
And then there's the Warners' appearances in Space Jam: A New Legacy;
Tumblr media
Not only is Dot's statue right next to one of Marvin the Martian, but during the game the Warners (and only the Warners) are sitting on Marvin's ship, which the Looney Tunes used to travel throughout the film. There's lots of space (heh) there, interesting that they chose to have the Warners be the only characters sitting on it.
There's a WB water tower in Tune World/Looney Tunes World (whichever one it's supposed to be, the movie uses both), which could be seen as just a cute meta reference to the fact that Warner Bros owns Looney Tunes, but here's the thing, the WB water tower doesn't resemble how it looks in real life, rather, it's designed after the one in Animaniacs! A lot of people already noticed this, but what I find interesting is that this is even consistent across games/comics/merchandise used to promote Space Jam: A New Legacy;
Tumblr media
Keep in mind the first Space Jam exists in the world of Animaniacs (it's mentioned in its spin-off Pinky and the Brain, which IS canon unlike Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain). This likely means A New Legacy does as well. Also keep in mind we never see an "Animaniacs World" or anything like it in A New Legacy.
So since the WB water tower is coloured like the one from Animaniacs, and there seems to be no "Animaniacs World", it's safe to assume it is the one from Animaniacs, right?
If it's the one from Animaniacs, the Warners we see in the movie must live there.
If they live there, that means they live in Looney Tunes World.
If the Warners live in Looney Tunes World, doesn't that make them...Looney Tunes?
I know I'm probably looking too deep into this, no matter what Animaniacs is not part of the Looney Tunes franchise; but the two franchises are definitely connected, and given that Looney Tunes was a big inspiration for Animaniacs, I think that's cool.
