Well, it's been a great day here at the studio, amazing what you get accomplished when you get up at 5:30AM, I'll see if I can finish something else today, but I'm fading pretty fast.

I don't know if the pitchfork will ever replace the axe, but it has good shape to it.

also I got a copy of Hatari! at 7-11 for $4.99 ! Clasic Howard Hawks with John Wayne, Red Buttons, the dude from Flight of the Phoenix with the glasses and most importantly the music of Henry Mancini, this is the film that "baby elepant walk" was written for.

What I'm really enjoying about this series is how mundane it is but still has a very grounded and powerful aspect to each piece, I think it's really going to show when all the work is hung together in a couple of weeks. I don't really want to sell any work in advance for this show, I'd really like to see it all together first in one place. I should have a couple more posts for you today as alot of the work is finally coming together, but I am still sketching new things all the time.
If you're looking for a way to deal with a cold and cloudy day, hop on over to my other blog Any How Town (see links) and there I've put up a tutorial for making and painting your own mutant plastic animals.
cheers,
