Cant help but nod my head when the beat comes in at 4:50...yeeeaaaaah.

[JaredKC14]

Thanks for showing off your talent of the TV. I appreciate your art skills.Most of the time its the voice actors that get all the publicity.Never the animators or the set or costume people that make movies and TV shows.Even if you wasn't LESEAN THOMAS (CO-DIRECTER/SUPERVISING CHARACTER DESIGNER of "THE BOONDOCKS. I would still say its a great sketch.I can draw some, but not that good.  To all the other ppl out there. as Riley would say," STOP HATIN'!!!

[ExDemon96]

the boondocks is BY FAR the #1 show on adult swim

[Wyteboy95]

shit u should teach da fucking art class

[callofdutyrockswii11]

i just noticed something, it took u about 15 min to draw that, that would of taken me a hole day, keep up the good work

[Mokumokuren13]

I love the boondocks, I'm drawing some fanart for it right now, when it's finished I'll tell you :P maybe on your DA or here,

[Xxbrandon9xX]

Hey Les, did you guys use Flash for most of your production for Boondocks? If not, what kind of software did you use? PEACE OUT!

[422537jb]

i forgot what blue and red colours are commonly used for again in illustration, can someone please remind me?

[Teampanda8]

from what i see where he puts red its were its shaded i guess

[eldictator1]

Great skills lesean and some nice music A fan from the u.k and a fellow illustrator.

All those shit horns calling people gay for being an artist need to step out of the closet and realise they love the cock and stop putting their insecurities onto other people

[daplayer]

[KyuNube]

Yeahh its still on adult swim on saturday witch is today :D

[dsoulja85]

[UpNComingNigguh]

[ShawnfffX]

nice drawing

[VanityZERO]

yea dat bois definitely tracing...its hard to find a straight black man that can draw like that

[seage]

Its his own rough lines. Hes doing a clean-up, meaning he takes his rough lines and brings em to a higher quality drawing. Its seen all the time in animation. Also, hes the creator of the characters...soo..who would be be tracing from?

[danmaster20]

no point in being racist he can draw stop being such a hater.

[kamarty]

why he gotta gay to be creative

[eldictator1]

The people calling him gay are the people with insecurities about their sexuality and probably on wellfare, and trolls

[nigahiga66]

dats fuckin awsome man

[teir525]

wow who ever is saying that he traced u are a retard, the guy doing it is the co-designer of the boondocks he has done it a million times

[Miltonnewyork]

i trace all the time as well, but from my own rough sketches, but then i trace it again to clean up the lines.
