Summertime, y’all! Keepin’ cool! This was my first attempt at giving the bridge of the Naughtyless a main view port. Though I ultimately went a different way (there’s now a dedicated wall unit with a steampunk looking, round port made[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
S.R.V. Naughtyless
Reminder: An ALL NEW Minions at Work cartoon page on Tuesday! Be sure to check in! Anything done on the submarine Naughtyless is always fun. This one doesn’t have nearly as much steampunk flavor as later ones, but I’m always[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
That may be the first ever cartoon set on the Naughtyless, which at that point didn’t have a name, and probably not a captain either. Cap’n Rehab came later. Here’s how it came about… I found a press board ring[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Know Your Audience
Hey, a never-before-seen cartoon for you today! Yes, it recycles old photography, and therefore can be considered a Minions at Work 1.5 cartoon, but it’s new! Don’t complain. Actually, I’ve been getting alarmed at how hard it is to find[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
How to Be a Minion #3
I like this one. Good lighting. Good props. Good set. Several secondary jokes. Yes, I made 1/6th scale fish-sticks, because the joke required it.

Ha-ha-ha! A joke about high gas prices! Didn’t expect this one to date so fast! Also, Number 2 takes a full pan of muffins on vacation. A FULL PAN OF MUFFINS! Also, the stenciled sign in the background is pretty[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
There’s Something on Your Face…
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…
What is Cap’n Rehab’s “thing?” This cartoon pretty well sums it up. Building and lighting sets for Cap’n Rehab’s submarine, the “Naughtyless” is loads of fun, and I keep getting sucked into spending inordinately large amounts of time building props[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I haven’t got a lot to say about this one. It’s not a fully realized Naughtyless set. It lacks all the cool steampunk embellishments that I eventually collected (and continue to add to for future use. But I love how[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
