when the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie that’s
One of my favourite CCH bits is when Dean lets Jerry conduct the band cuz all of them are really fun but the “Once in a While” number has a special place in my heart
Watching these two live at the Copa must’ve been something special. I wish there was more footage of their nightclub performances out there. It seems like both of them were so much more relaxed and in their element but I feel like I’ve only ever come across video of two or three different shows.
One day I’ll make the M+L Copacabana animatic that’s been knocking around in my brain for months… oh one day the things I’ll do.
Hear me out…
I know it was probably a fairly serious and sad time after the split BUT every time I read something about Dean chasing Jerry around the Paramount lot because he kept ducking to avoid him- to the point he literally had to hold a sit down meeting and scold him- I just can’t help picturing Dean literally trying to track Jerry down in full campy horror movie mode, being an absolute menace on the studio grounds, screaming his head off as they run around in circles of Looney Toon dust.
And all Dean wants is a little wave good morning cuz he misses his partner (but also poor Jerry he obviously wasn’t ready)
There’s zero basis for this but it was kinda fun to make anyways.
Sleepy time for shaky handed sheriffs 💤
Finally FINALLY got around to watching Rio Bravo
A Twitter mutual and I were discussing the idea of a Dracula!Dean AU where he's fluffy and old when he doesn't feed, but when he does- he's back to youthful 40s-50s Dean (refer to images below)
And yes, Jerry is Renfield. BECAUSE EVERY DRACULA NEEDS A LOYAL COMPANION. >:3c
OH MY- the things you got me staying up to 3am doing. If you needed proof I’ll draw anything as long as it falls within one of my interests here it is.
First off I’m in loooove with this whole concept. It’s genius how well it suits them, but now I have to go lament the fact I’m never getting a M+L Renfield movie. Dean would’ve made a perfect Dracula (the clip of him singing that Bela Lugosi parody of Besame Mucho is *chefs kiss*)
Sorry this took so long I couldn’t settle on one thing and went a lil overboard doing them all + The bonus doodles are abundant.
Not sure what you were looking for Moonie but hopefully something in here hits the mark.
AND if you come up with any other ideas (im practically begging) send them my way bc I had waayyyy too much fun with this.
Oh boy what a day, what a duo, here’s another doodle. Happy Martin and Lewis Day~
dawg you got my mind RACING now because of the Dracula!Dean AU
BECAUSE NOW I'M IMAGINING A LIL HALLOWEEN SPECIAL FOR THE DEAN MARTIN SHOW AND I'M JUST LOSING IT AHHH your stuff is so good dude 😭
Dude YOU got my mind doing back flips with the Dracula!Dean AU. It haunts my waking hours tbh I kinda wanna make more art for it.
Ok Moonie… I know you probably weren’t actually asking for this BUT what am I supposed to do? Answer with a “thanks and gee yeah that’s a neat idea” and leave it at that? Lmao NO I gotta draw you something. So even though it’s a way too early for Halloween, here we go: Presenting the Dean Martin Show Spooky Special.
Dean sings Monster Mash and does a duet of Blue Moon with Frank, who I refuse to make Frankenstein’s monster just for the name so he’s a werewolf because all of his “moon” songs. Sammy and Jerry are the behind the door guests. I wanted to make Sammy the Candyman but the timeline doesn’t work so he’s a mummy. Jerry (who is permitted to sneak onto set for this fictional episode bc the 20 years was a lie anyways) is Frankenstein’s bride because I firmly believe given the chance he would do Halloween drag in a heartbeat. The two up on the balcony are mystery guests, any guesses? Whoever gets it right gets a prize. Oh and the goldiggers are all bedsheet ghosts bc my sense of humour is in the shop for repair.
The M+L/Rat Pack monster mash up is actually so silly and fun, but save your Christmas requests because I can’t touch that until December lmao.
Since if you accept ideas to draw here goes my idea, well it's not so mine, but the thing is that I've been asked to write a fic about Dean and Jerry with the theme of Romeo and Juliet, that question of impossible love, a curious comparison that I've seen a lot in this "fandom"
And well, if it's not too much of a hassle, I'd love to see some of your drawing about them under this "AU" or "theme"
Eh I love drawing prompts! It takes me time but it’s no hassle. Your ask was pretty open to interpretation so here’s a 2 for 1: a literal R+J AU and a broader take on your theme.
Conceptual illustrations aren’t my strong suit. They usually turn out a bit too stiff and stupid but here’s the second section:
I think one reason why R+J works with M+L is the element of tension: Two people are pulled apart by external/internal forces and ultimately find their own unorthodox method of staying together
I appreciate writers in dead(ish) fandoms that are still at it. I tend to have mixed feelings about fanfic, but the creative effort you guys put in deserves some recognition.
I was gonna ask where I could read your fic but I may have already stumbled upon it- either that or it just so happens an entirely different person is also writing a R+J/M+L fic- But ANYWAYS…
Hope one of these fits what you were looking for and Good luck writing!
