I’d intended this to be part of a running series/gag, but I think I only did a couple of “How to Be a Minion” panels. Maybe we’ll start this over in “2.0.” This is a very early MAW cartoon, as[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Shooting outdoors is fun, but so it making the outdoors on a tabletop. The big trees in the background were a nice thrift-store find. I presume maybe they were Christmas decorations, but the trunks are awfully stout, and the greenery[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Okay, this is the first original, Minions at Work cartoon in several years! Well, kinda new. There’s no new photography here, but there’s a new gag on which the layout is built, rather than throwing some photos in some panels[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Though I’ve been using it mainly to repost classic “Minions at Work” panels, the purpose of this site is to ramp up to a reboot of the comic in a new, multi-panel form. I’d hoped to have that going by[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The harpoon in Cap’n Rehab’s hands is the most frightening one-sixth scale prop I’ve ever made. The tip is the pointy part of an ENORMOUS fish-hook which I cut off an straightened. I trimmed the points on the end and[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
One of the more satisfying moments in the early spy movies was when the hero blew up the villain’s secret lair and some random henchman would get blown off a ledge or catwalk and fly to the air to their[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
