Herr D
*Here for all you rushed, distracted, new, unpracticed, or just plain lazy people, is a reminder. Don’t make the mistake I made with this illustration. I had two options for picture concept and chose this one because this was going to be a fragmentary day on hm. (Leave on all day, work on it up to twice an hour for up to seven minutes at a time.) I reasoned that the items done approximately in triplicate would make that kind of a day simpler and faster. My mistake was that I didn’t plan out the picture more in advance.
So I had to move each piece of ALL THREE FOUR TIMES. It took a lot longer and didn’t turn out as well as planned.*
–> Three of the most acrobatic, charismatic, honorable, and just plain cute musketeers in history were the identical triplet midgets named Putipon, Knowymon, and Hillinngon. They wanted to be formal musketeers but were never granted official cloaks and told they were denied the opportunity to entertain the royal family. Something about how they didn’t measure up. That was kind of the point, though; they were respectively three foot one, two foot eleven and a half, and two foot ten. At that height, their over-sized belts doubled as codpieces, serving the extra function of reminding the wenches they chased whose names they should be yelling soon. Here they are depicted in their showiest pose.
