Living in Atlanta is quite a bit different from where I called home for 21 years, the main difference: the lack of rednecks. Now I am not one to judge or hate on anyone but I gotta be honest I do not miss being surrounded by these guys. If one were to visit where I grew up it would be pretty obvious as to where my inspiration for these guys came from. I drew the fatter one first thinking that I would just have one character in the picture, but after a while I figured every good redneck needs a trusty sidekick and that's where the skinny one came into play. It wasn't really hard to come up with names for these guys, the skinny one's name is Ted and the fat one's name is Kenny. They were named after some of music's greatest gentlemen, Ted Nugent and Kenny Rogers. Clearly I am being sarcastic, no offense to anyone who might like either one of these music icons, but I thought the names fit perfectly for these guys. Who knows, I might do some more with these characters in the future, I guess we will just have to wait and see.
