Flintstone Comic Strip Art

Gene Hazleton is one of my favorite Flintstone artists and he did almost the whole run of comic strip that ran in daily papers across the country during the 60's. i love Gene for the fact that he added so much detail to this world that a limited animation budget only hinted at. Some of the best things about his run on this strip are the different clothes worn by the cast and the plethora of interesting supporting characters he included, not to mention a fleshed out and intricate Bedrock like you've never seen before. I decided to commemorate this underappreciated artist by coloring and texturing a few of his best panels. A lot of the textures are lifted from actual Flintstone cartoons for extra Hanna Barbera goodness
