Rowland Wilson’s Tubby & the Poo-Bah 2

To complete the post, Bill Peckmann sent some photos from Rowland Wilson‘s California studio. He had a series of small figurines which he used to help in the design. Bill writes:
- “Rowland also had a way with an X-Acto blade, he was a master model builder and mixed media sculptor! These are studies he did to help him realize his cartoon characters.”

Rowland B. Wilson, I wish I’d met you!
Who else could wear a button down Reyn Spooner Hawaiian shirt (da kine, bro!) and a Texas bolo tie? That’s stylin’!
Thank you for the glimpse of RBW’s models and studio. Fascinating.
I can’t wait for the secrets book!

That is a lot of talent.
Impressive.
But, it makes sense that he could sculpt, too. His drawings and sense of space are really solid.
