Anyone that remembers this paint-sketch from back in July of 2008, well… thanks for being so loyal. Oddly enough, this very image landed me a small job recently, which resulted in the surly creature getting a bit of a polishing-up.
This client was looking for something half cheetah, half shark, as sort of a mascot for their office team. As it turns out, a Google image search of the term “cheetah shark” turns up the above sketch as result number one. After locating this image and subsequently coming to my site, I’m sure that the client immediately realized that he had found the premier authority on cheetah-sharks.
Really, of the handful of things I’ve drawn, I never imagined the chesnark bringing in clients.
Here’s the new re-paint. It’s really more of a Cheshark, as the snake elements have been removed via genetic modification.
We love the drawing you did for us – we renamed it the Sharkeetah though. We loved it so much that we made a full size sculpture or it out of chicken wire and bondo. I’ll email you the pictures.
Bad ass bro, love the repaint…….
N8B!
Fantastic. I still talk about the horrible chesnark on a weekly basis.
The Cheshark looks pretty fierce Bobby. Great graphics!
