Just a little something for Valentine’s Day. You’re welcome. More of those silly little props that make me happy. Garbage cans, traffic cones, park benches, street lights. I think this is one of the earlier cartoons where I started dumping[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Though it isn’t that big, this is one of the more elaborate sets that I ever built. It’s also unusual in that it has a room with an actual ceiling, and am upper “street” level as well. You can’t really[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
The Ancient Minion and the Penguin meet at last! With the Penguin, part of the joke is always how did he do what you’ve seen or heard that he’s done. In this case, the secondary joke is, how did he[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Here We Go Again
Another outdoor cartoon, with my front walk once again standing in for a paved road. Yes, I reused this shot a lot, but I really liked it, and I just kept coming up with punch lines.
This is one of the rare “Minions at Work” cartoons shot outdoors. I don’t do it often because — Oregon — clouds — rain — wind — SIDEWAYS rain, etc. But it was always nice when it happened, and it[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
