If bgermain nailed it right off the bat... Do we get the rest of the day off?

Just then, much to everyone at the dinner table's dismay, Dr. Finklestein demonstrated his progress with his Removable Head Potion® experiments.

VERY nice, W, and the rest.

[bgermain]

Am I mistaken or did -W.- give his scientist a "mini-me"?

(Oh, and thank you, WB Hand, that was very kind of you!)

I wanted to try and make several small character sketches, But after several attemts to find appropriate the paint tools, cursing and som struggling with painter. I decided that i had underestimated the time it would take, gave up and did this one instead. About an 1h 20.

The host i'm using is a bit dodgy at the moment. :( I had trouble logging in yesterday. The pic is up now anyway.

Argh... bad time to switch new hosts, now I'm two days behind...!!!
Hi hi hi... revamp of an older work, much better this time I think. First post here in DSG, much catching up to do!

And yes... think Marty Feldman (Young Frankenstein) and John Lithgow (Buckaroo Banzai's Dr Lizardo...) for the inspiration here.

That looks really clean vfxart, I like the expressions and especially your beaker.

W- damn! He's such a sexy victorian mad scientist! :D

I'm late also.. I did this on the right day but couldn't post until now. I hope I'm not breaking a rule!
