24 things I drew this month - Thing Seventeen

There is actually a perfectly good explanation for why I have spent some of this evening making a paper model of a tube train driven by Queen Victoria, and carrying, among others, Isaac Newton, Morecambe and Wise, Henry VIII and Winnie the Pooh.

Hard though I accept that may be to believe.

it's 'an opus to be proud of though it's written in the sand.'

Placeholder - an art form all its own. Looking forward to your next work of genius!

What is commenting on these the blogging equivalent of?

And how time pauses for a moment as we reflect upon the day? :D

I LOVE it! Once again you show your limitless talent.

You spend a lot of time in the tube, so why not make a train car. Brilliant!

Cute! It looks like Winnie the Pooh is the only one enjoying the ride though...

I've often said, the holiday season is the time for pointless crafts. Should I make a Melbourne tram? I had honestly not thought of that before.

Kaitebon said...

That is adorable.

Explanation forthcoming?

This looks like it should contain an assortment of chocolates.

OK you win, totally worth teasing us with the placeholder for it. This is so quirky!

What will come next? Will you draw some sound, for example a TARDIS noise? ;)
I begin to believe, everything is possible for you.
Not fair! ;)

Pooh looks like Shrek with jaundice!

I love this. Making a tube from a tube. But I can't quite work out the tube destination. I'm going for Morden or Hendon (as in Hendon Central...but I'm not sure that's ever end of line anyway)on the Northern Line. But then it might just be a made up destination to fit with your cast of passengers. Yes? No?

Stu said...

Pah! They'll let anyone on the tube these days ...

This is so adorable!

I could marry you for this.

Pretty sure this just cements the idea that you are utter perfection, sir.

Shakespear looks like he's wearing a mask and has robbed a bank, or something equaly shifty.
Capital peice of work
