Great to see the Duder! Thought you might have hated the BL after those days of endless quotes from it on Ellen's. Nice stuff. Makes me want to make a White Russian and go bowling. Remember though, the dude is overweight from all the munching after 'burning J's'. Be nice to see Walter too. Surprised no ones attempted to make animation shorts or graphic novel at least...

'At least I'm housebroken.'

Hey James-

Yeah, at the time, the incessant quoting was a bit grating at times, but it is a Coen Bros. masterpiece and a good flick to boot. Yeah I made the Dude a bit thin, but only so he would stand out next to Walter (which I hope to do next). They would make a nice animation short. Hmmmm..... However, there was a cameo in Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends as seen here: http://www.timknapton.com/blog/?p=35

yeah its a bit much in a few areas I like the overall shape but find the hair a little distracting. I also would like to see a little different approach on the bowling ball...

But that is just me.

Pedro-

You are quite the bulldog, but I agree. It was a quick diddle I did on Sunday and definitely want to revisit.

I've come to realize you can't leave out the Jesus. Consider it done.

Dagan-

I should actually own the movie. It's that much a classic. All is well here, best to the family, Big Daddy.

Gary-

Welcome! I do not work for FatKat (the guy above you on comments was working on Skunk Fu and my prior employer is working on a project with them), but maybe I should drop them a line. They do good stuff up there in the frozen north. Enjoyed your blog & cartoon style and will definitely be in touch. My best to the lovely Hsin-Huey.
