Jimmy Squarefeet, by idiom on Nov 6, 2008 18:03:27 GMT 1, Hi
Just a few bits that i finished today that are destined for the street whenever it's next dry out...
The pig character and the one with the goat's head are based on characters from Celtic folklore. One of the pigs is on cardboard whilst the other is on a vinyl tile - and one of them has added glitter!
The 'I Love it hEre' one is an adaptation from a painted picture (and screenprint) that i did a while ago. And the fly on the wall is just something i've been meaning to knock out for ages - although the background has some added pastel...
I also decided to add Jimmy Squarefeet (the pig character) to the pink suitcase i recently acquired...
Anyone got any comments/criticism?
Cheers

They are based on characters called Jimmy Squarefoot and the Phooka. These are characters in Gaelic/Celtic folklore. I'm sure there will be some info on the internet about them somewhere...
Do you like them anyway?
Cheers

No.
Just wondered as I know a few indigenous myths, I'd consider the Puca more Nordic than Celtic myself

Thanks for your constructive criticism... I've spelled it Phooka for a reason. And that wasn't because i couldn't spell the Nordic version myself. It was because that's it's name where i'm from.

Jimmy Squarefeet, by princeofdalston on Nov 8, 2008 16:12:51 GMT 1, I think your lines are very crisp and clear
Jimmy Squarefeet is a cool character - it might also work well if he was interacting with other characters - since you said it's from folklore maybe he could be giving something to some tiny elf/smurf/villagers type things - just a thought..
