I love Monaco. I love the game play, I love the music, I love the art. I love it all. For fun I started doodling the characters just as sort of a fun drawing game. I wanted to take the little pixel people from the game and try fleshing them out into full blown cartoon characters. At first it was just something I was doing for fun but we reached out to Monaco creator Andy Schatz with the idea of selling them as prints. He liked the cartoons and so we teamed up to make Penny Arcade your official source for Monaco merchandise. We'll start with a set of prints based on my designs but we've got ideas for all sorts of other cool stuff.
So here are my designs for all the characters. We're working out the details for the prints now but it should not be too long before they are in the store. I'll keep you updated. In the meantime, go play some Monaco!
