comic homage to moon baby
by sven at 10:11 pm
My brother drew a comic using Moon Baby and the Sven blocks!
Here's what he had to say about it on his art blog:
"This will probably make my brother do a double take. I used two of his characters and two of his themes in this comic. Moon baby and the Sven blocks both come from his recent explorations into stopmo. If you look through Scarlet Star, you'll see Love and The Moon constantly show up in his work (well, at least I think they do). Pardon any off character sheet drawings, I didn't look up what they looked like before I started drawing."
...Wow. I wish I'd thought of that story line. (Thanks, Bro!)

'I wish I'd thought of that story line.' hehe .... yeah it's probably the best way to include both your characters... Plus it's a great surreal stuff: a baby climbing some blocks in order to reach the moon!! Awesome! You'll probably have to drill the blocks (or do some camera angle trick) so that the puppet can stand there....also check if he has the proportions for climbing them. Have you thought of making replacement faces for the blocks??? That would be very easy since it's paper suck to them, and will give them some personality....you could also make them blink all at the same time or something like that... Anyway, just some ideas...Good LUck ;)

Thanks for the ideas, Ale. :-)
Unfortunately, if I wind up actually filming this sweet little story, it's going to be a while from now. Moon Baby is still in the hospital... And rather than devote myself to fixing him right now, I've moved on to trying to build some puppets with better designs. More on that to come. ;-)
