Okay, apparently I did use word balloons at least ONCE in Minions at Work 1.o, even if it was only for screaming. This one also used a lot more photo editing than usual. The joke here is a bit obscure,[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Archive for number-2
This leans pretty hard into the absurdist, and is kind of the result of found props. For the longest time, I looked for a backup Penguin. Again, he was a found prop, from a thrift store. One day I stuck[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The essence of Number 2’s character is that he could be really evil, if it just weren’t so much frickin’ work. His devotion to minimal effort extends to pretty much all aspects of his life, including relationships (ex-wives have been[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I went to so much trouble setting up the clone copy machine, that I had to get at least a couple cartoons out of it. I think maybe I got three total. The set wasn’t THAT had, but finding four[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Basket Case
Another briefing using the wonderful 3D school geography maps I found at a thrift store. Given that we’re heading into the warmer seasons, this one seems time appropriate. And yet another example of fondness for wordy captions. This is easily[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
