On this episode of the Cartoon Dumpling Podcast, I'm joined by humorous illustrator, character designer, and cartoonist, Robb Mommaerts. Robb fills us in on how he got started in illustration, what his studio looks like, and the kinds of comic books his grandfather would bring home to him. There were some gremlins in the recording equipment on this episode, so there's a wee bit of background noise. I tried to reduce it as much as possible. So apologies in advance. No matter what, it's an awesome conversation I know you'll enjoy.
