#36 - Rudy

CAP: He just looks like a "Rudy" to me...so this is Rudy.

LEO: Rudy can't fail.

#35 -Kepa

CAP: Juana, I am thinking this guy must be Basque -- so you should name him.

LEO: Okay, his name is Kepa (after Kepa Junkera, who has been blogging his ecounters with Basque Americans while he roams the USA).

#34 - Binky

CAP: Binky.

This is a wonderful family dog. The people the family got him from when he was a puppy said "no, he won't get very big"...so the little twin girls named him Binky. Ha. They still put bows in his hair -- and he lets them. That's the kind of good guy Binky is.

LEO: Yes, Binky looks the the perfect good natured giant. I love doing this kind of dog, these colors!

#33 - Stoney

CAP: Stoney, because I like the pebbly background and I didn't want to call him Pebbles.

LEO: Stoney is another fave, i almost kept this one. He looks like a white tiger. A psychedelic, Louis Wain style white tiger. That background took a while, but you get in the zone. Like Stoney.

#32 - Fabio

CAP: The male supermodel of our cats...Fabio. Just look at this guy's fabulous hair!

LEO: Yeah, he's hot. Probably has a hairball issue, though.

#31 - Queen Millicent

CAP: Queen Millicent.

LEO: Kinda went all out on the queenliness on millicent, then gave her a silver crown to sorta tone it down. She's too noble to believe in bling.

#30 - Chas

CAP: Chas...Chazzy to his friends.

I just like the name Chas.

LEO: Chas is a hipster, but not a doofus.

#29 - Deve

CAP: This guy reminds me of a cat I inherited once who started out as Mr. Jinx but whose name I changed to Steve. My niece was just learning to talk around that time and called Steve "Deve".

LEO: I got nothin', but i like the name 'Deve'!

#28 - Finn the Younger

CAP: This cat looks like a budding young magician to me. Finn the Younger is learning the "biz" from his uncle, Finn the Elder.

LEO: Finn the Younger imagines he has the Eye of Agamotto around his neck, but it's really just a button. Nevertheless, he's shiny.

#27 - Roscoe

CAP: Roscoe is this dog's name.

While this guy looks nothing at all like my old dog Roscoe, he does have Roscoe's mischievous (but innocent) look.

Oooh, Roscoe and I were such a team...LOL...that's probably where my "career" as an instigator got its start.

LEO: I love Roscoe, he's one of my favotites. He's one of the 'radioactive' dogs. I like to make things look glowy for some reason. Maybe he ate some GID garbage. Whatever the cause, looks like he's enjoying himself!

#26 - Vince

CAP: This is Vince. I figured I was going to be calling one of the jacketed cat guys Vince at some point, but I had a dream about Alice Cooper last night...that clinched it!

LEO: Actually i might have called him Vinnie when i was coloring him. It's the black jacket.

#25 - Rory

CAP: Oooh...I really really like the colors in this one! And this one still has the little triangles on the sides.

This is Rory.

LEO: You must like his one, since he's named Rory. He has a rough-and-tumble look about him. I wish i'd made more green guys.

CAP: Yep, I really DO like this one! And you can make more green guys in the next set!

#24 - Harriet

CAP: I know that Juana told me some of these girls with necklaces reminded her of June Cleaver. I am not sure which one it was exactly...so in honor of one of my favorite television moms, I am calling this one Harriet, as in Harriet Nelson.

Perhaps some other tv mom names will pop up later.

LEO: Good call! This lady is super pretty. I really layed down the color with some of these, and it worked well on Harriet.

#23 - Craig

CAP: As mentioned earlier in this blog, Wolfy is normally just called Wolfy...no matter how I color him. But for this series -- with Juana doing the coloring -- Wolfy's personality changes a bit each time and it really cracks me up...I love it.

This Wolfy's name is Craig.

LEO: Craig is a Wolfy who got the plaid treatment this time, and pink-and-grey plaid is kinda preppy, so he could definitely be a Craig. Maybe Pastor Craig, not preppy, but comfortable in plaid.

CAP: Ha...I was thinking of Craig Ferguson...prob'ly comfortable in plaid, too.

#22 - Gabe

CAP: I'm not sure why exactly, but the basic drawing for this cat reminds me of my dad...so this guy's name is Gabe.

LEO: Gabe was right next to the guitar on the right side gutter, so he got a strumming intro when i began to write this! It was fun putting a lot of motion in this great design through color. This cat is very suave. And blue.

#21 - King Speedo

CAP: ...but his real name is Mister Earl

LEO: Okay, i get his jaggedy whiskers make him Speedo. But now i'm thinking he doesn't have any clothes... except perhaps speedos? Because he's a swimmer, and that's a medal around his neck. He has a whole separate life when not being King. A whole separate wet and speedy life.

CAP: LOL

#20 -- Salvador Wolfy

CAP: Normally, all of the Wolfys are just called Wolfy, but this guy reminds me of Salvador Dali...so he is now Salvador Wolfy.

LEO: The ONLY Wolfy you will see with whiskers - because i didn't know Wolfy didn't have whiskers! But he's also purple, so i suspect he's a pretty stand - alone sorta guy. A lone wolf, so to speak.

#19 - Licorice

CAP: Looking at this one (one of my favorites) for the millionth time I finally heard it say its name. And that name is Licorice.

LEO: Good name for a cute tuxedo kitty.

#18 - Sydney

CAP: I'm not exactly sure why I chose Sydney for this cat girl, but I think it fits her.

LEO: Sydney is a nice name for a girl. Sydney is wrapped pretty tight, peter pan collar and not a hair out of place.

#17 - King Nimby

CAP: It is very rainy today with a bit of thunder and lightning.

The clouds on this guy look to be kind of swirly and changeable.

This is King Nimby.

LEO: King Nimby looks like he is remembering something from long ago.
