Aaaand, wouldn't you know it. I've picked up a cold a scant few days before SDCC. Hopefully I can knock it out quickly, but it does mean getting less stuff done before leaving. Sigh.
It's cloudy this morning, and yet the cats are positioned in their usual sunning spots. Force of habit, or hoping the giant heat lamp in the sky is just running late?
That CD case the feep is standing on - an artifact whose useful lifespan is limited, and which will one day prompt young people to ask, "What the heck did you use this for?" [NB: In the future, young people will all be saying "heck." Mark my words!]
The very first tentacle twist meets the very first feep dragon, with the first corkscrew monster (a.k.a. Blue Swirl) looking on. You have no idea how much I wish I could go back and take a file to that dragon to smooth it down, but it was made out of Sculpey III instead of Premo and it would have snapped to pieces.
I'm a cartoonist and a sculptor. The cartoons are generally aimed at adults and tend to be Not For Everyone. The sculpts are my Feeping Creatures monster figurines and art, and are suitable for all ages. I do a lot of scfi-fi/comic conventions and art fairs where I sell the Feeps as part of my ongoing effort to increase the number of monsters in people's homes and offices.
I come up with the captions for these photos first thing in the morning, when I'm still half asleep. If they seem a little surreal sometimes that's probably why. You are more than welcome to comment with your own caption ideas.
