    Wow, Jeff this one is an Masterwork in Color theory!
    It almost doesn’t need the blurb because it is so good at explaining itself!

    Self-explanatory, but not just for color choices–it makes me want to get out some clay and make what I want!

    Very, very cool.

    On the entertainment side, I always like to count how many pieces you steal from yourself (i.e. HM3 items). I count 4. (I thought that cape was 1, but I can’t find it in the program)

    I would hire Animatrix as my maid. She could tell all the kids’ toys to put themselves away.

    Awesome character. Cheers!

    Hey! I just realized this is #29. You got a big plan for a Grand Finale?
    Kudos for gettin them done.

    Thanks for the kind words, folks!

    You devil! I am a lazy self-thief, it is true. On this one there are four — three spell effects (two on the hands, one behind her) and the Stegosaurus (with modifications to make it toy-like). The cape is very similar to one in there but it’s actually custom drawn.

    Not really, no. I want to done of a girl or boy who has the power to bring faces s/he sees in everyday objects to life for a brief time so s/he can talk to them. So like when you look at an electrical outlet, it sort of looks like a face with eyes and an open mouth. The kid could focus on that and get it to talk.

    So not anything major.
