Lumpus and Slinkman...
Nov. 29th, 2005 10:30 pmAlthough it was created by the same person as Rocko's Modern Life, which I enjoyed, I haven't gotten so much into Camp Lazlo. However, my kids like it, so I do watch it occasionally. One character that does amuse me is Assistant Scoutmaster Slinkman of Camp Kidney's loyal Bean Scouts. He's a banana slug, and if you've spent any time in the Pacific Northwest, you're familiar with these critters. The biologist in me rebels against a slug with arms and legs though, so I had to depict him a bit more realistically. I put him perching in Scoutmaster Lumpus's antler (he's a grumpy moose), the better to remind him of the duties he tries to avoid.
(This is what they're actually drawn like.)
I drew this twice. I spent about 90 minutes on it Sunday night, and then I clicked "modify canvas" instead of the "save" button, and lost the whole damn thing. Tonight, the oekaki board would not let me save it (Image data transfer error - please retry...), so I had to take a screenshot and save it onto my hard drive instead. I don't know if it's my browser or computer settings or what. It's only OekakiBBS - Paint BBS seems to work ok. If anyone's got any ideas, let me know...
(Oh, and I'm nuts - I made a community at DA.
I still need to work on my holiday card, dammit...
