Description
...And that was how Snuggles the hamster learned that yes, things COULD always get worse.I am so not responsible for this. I was doodling at the coffee shop with some friends, and this was their idea. (Okay, okay, I might have been partially responsible for the hamster...) And since I should totally have been working on all the other stuff that really needed to get done, it was inevitable that I'd be seized with inspiration. I can't look at this piece without hearing the 80's hair band monster saying "Say hello to my leetle friend!" I enjoy doing the occasionally really weird monster, and I don't do it nearly enough. But look at him! One look, and you know that A) he's a real bastard, and B) he probably spends truly insane amounts on hair gel. And he has huge ankles. If I had ankles like that, I would get murals tattooed on them.

Snuggles definitely makes this piece. Very nice work. It made me smile, which probably says something not very nice about me. Still, well done.

I scrolled down to Snuggles, looked over at him, and my heart immediately sank, and I mentally screamed "AWWWWWW!" Poor little guy. I LOVE this picture, though. As I do all of your work. That's why I'm faving a lot of it left and right The monster and his puppet are so incredible and unique. And the monster's "clothes" are REALLY cool. And I love how the hamster is SO tiny in comparison. Gorgeous work, as always.

I think the hamster is my favourite part of this whole scene. His expression just cracks me up. And that's not to say that the puppet monster is not cool in his own right after all just look at that hair do!

Sometimes I'm tempted to favorite your pics just because of your description of them.
Poor Snuggles... *tries to stop grinning*

Biologically challenged Hair Metal Singers are the best monsters... ; ) I would definintely stomp on everything if I had feet like that. I'd sell myself out to stomp on things for people, damnit. ...In a very dignified manner of course. *nods*
Heee. Prints for sale?

I feel I represent Snuggles in this picture, and the puppet monster the evils of society. I live my life, running around in my nice wheel, thinking I'm getting somewhere. However, one day I feel spontaneous and venture into my handy local cave only to find the puppet monster, chasing me with big business and politicians. I attempt to scuttle to safety, but I get trapped in the wheel again.
I need to go think about this.
