You’ve seen his beautifully rendered watercolor cartoons grace the pages of Playboy for more than 40 years, but have you ever wondered how they got there? What about the cartoons that don’t make it into the magazine?
Doug Sneyd’s new book Unpublished Sneyd offers a glimpse into this process along with more than 90 sketches of unpublished cartoons. The first book of its kind to be published by a Playboy cartoonist, it’s your chance to discover everything you’ve ever wondered about the man responsible for creating those pulchritudinous cartoon females. Read about Doug’s influences, his cartooning process, and his answer to the enduring question, “Have you ever met Hugh Hefner or been to the Mansion?”
Unpublished Sneyd can be ordered directly from the artist for $25.00 (plus shipping and handling) on his website or by emailing the artist directly at info@dougsneyd.com. Each book will arrive signed next to an original black and white sketch of a lovely “girl next door.”
After the jump, more samples from Doug, plus a shot of the man himself.

I've got to say that I've been a huge fan of Doug Sneyd's for years. I just bought his book yesterday at Comicon and he was awesome to take the time and sketch my fiance who was with me (I'm grateful to both Doug and my fiance for taking the time to be there). He is a super talented illustrator who has none of the attitude. I love this book and I continue to look forward to seeing his amazing cartoons in playboy.
