This was a fun and totally liberating custom for me. Especially considering
all the monsters and dark characters I normally create.

I have a buddy who loves these guys, and he taught me a lot of what to look

But lately, I have begun to appreciate these guys in all their wacky glory.
And moreso nowadays than ever!

our overly serious world!
Coming soon, HARPO & CHICO!
In progress!
Special thanks to Brian Sweat, to whom this figure is dedicated
MORE COMEDY GUYS SOON!
