The Devil in a Red Fez

After several months the devil finally gets a nice velvety close up.   It's hard to tell but the background is red, velvet matte board, giving him that luxurious evil feeling.
"Ooooohhhh so soft, so evil, that lord of the flies is classy fellow, what with the monocle and all."

The cat still dose not care.

Next up an angel in tweed.

The Devil and the cat

So to kept idle hands busy I made the devil. I had the idea of making a devil in a blue suit, a bear in blue flannel and so on.... But Doug gave me some real nice red, velvety matte board that I want to do something with. However, everything I've done so far relies on light shinning through it, so to use the matte board I'll have to concocte something that doesn't.  And yes the Devil is smoking two cigarettes, he is that bad.

Ultimate evil...phfft.

The Debbies

Here is a little short that started off as just an excuse to mess with shapes,(just like on Sesame Street). The yellow dresses where made first, by drawing lines and circles on to paper then cut into the shape of a dress. The dress on the far right is several different pieces of blue gel layered and then cut into the shape of the dress.  It was originally suppose to be just a still shot ,(it kind of still is) but then,  "What the hell, throw in some mambo, a few more people and call it a short.

1969 Evergreen Place

If you ever saw the show "The Oblongs" you might recognize the Debbies.  In case you haven't seen it,  the Debbies are popular, mean girls, who make life hellish for pretty much everyone else.  I  didn't realize that the girls on the left bore a striking resemblance to the Debbies until Doug pointed it out to me.

Something Debbie Comes This Way...

FAIL.

I'm calling it a fail.
I started this project a couple of weeks ago as something to do to keep my hands from becoming the devil's playthings. A little bit of scenic fluff, a nice mountain a few birds and some gold fish. But it's all gone to rubbish. The sky isn't working out the birds won't fly correctly, the fish won't do anything, so like the Lorax I'm sending them off. I like the waves move and will file them use later.

So what next!?!?!
I've had the suggestion of a robot unicorn, but that will have to wait. Right now I think I'm going to just make images I like rather worry about a story.

Even with an extra day....

....I still didn't get a project done in February.  But I did get an idea for the next project, which I got started on.  It's not a "full" project, it's not a story, it's just a chance to make some images that would be cool. You know some mountains, some fish, a few really cool waves. So far I've just got the mountain...
