Description It's Todd in the Shadows! He does really funny pop song reviews over here.

Ever since he showed up on TGWTG, I thought he had a really awesome visual gimmick, and I wondered how it would translate into fanart. It seemed like a fun challenge to draw a person who's basically unseen. This was one of the first images to pop into my head, and I've just now gotten around to putting it down. I think it turned out a bit too "serious business" looking, but I still have a couple of other ideas that might be more fun. Not going to do them right now, though. I desperately need to do something in color.

So yeah, if you don't watch Todd, go do that. And to Todd, thanks for the awesome show and the unintentional art challenge!

Medium: white colored pencil on black paper

Too serious? Maybe for Todd, but that doesn't stop it from being completely EPIC. Really nice art.

I love this picture! I love how you have the music symbols coming out of the shading (lightening?) and the wrinkles in the clothing. Very well done- they look so natural wrinkling around the bent arm.

Nar, nar. I run the "Toddintheshadows fan page" (not the one that is "Todd in the shadows") on facebook, I'mma add this in our pictures. (I'll credit you of course) if you have a problem, I'll take it down though.

I have no idea, since I don't upload my art on Facebook, but it's just a regular old PNG file.

Todd's quickly becoming one of my favorite reviewers on TGWTG. He's just that funny (especially when reviewing Eeny Meeny Miny Mo Lover, or whatever the heck that song was called). Ever since he made that "worst of 1987" list I've wondered if he'd do less recent songs.

Clockwork-Conscience In reply to Coluber [2010-09-06 00:10:21 +0000 UTC]

He's certainly one of my favorite new additions. Even when I don't agree with him, he's still really entertaining, and that's what makes a good reviewer. So yeah, new songs or old songs, I'll be watching.

Great job! I love Todd. So much so that I am the creator of his fan club. So I am a true Todd expert and this is just amazing.

After I made my fanart, people have been making fanarts of him.

Yeah, I noticed the recent Todd influx too. When I thought of this picture, I couldn't find any other fanart of the guy, but as soon as I get ready to draw it, some appears! Weird coincidence.

But aw, man, you're making me blush with that compliment. XD Thanks for that, and for the fav.

I've only seen two other pictures, but I'm sure he'll get more as his fanbase grows (he deserves it, after all).
