Part 5 in a 6-part* series. Its Terry Gilliam!

Now before you hum and haw and say he's the least important, remember he is the one responsible for all the animation work in the Pythons. Also remember he is probably the most successful one since. You know the film '12 Monkeys'? He directed that. Also 'The Brothers Grimm', 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas', 'Jabberwocky' and even Quentin Tarantino credited Gilliam with a special thanks in the credits of 'Resevoir Dogs'.

Meanwhile John Cleese does ads for Sainsburys.















*Is that the light at the end of the tunnel or the headlamp of an oncoming train?

I love all your work and this one is pretty good looks just a little fuzzy do u use the smudge brush...
:iconwesternlotus:
Smudge brush? If you mean a blending stick, then yes. If you mean a photoshop tool, then no. To be honest, I couldn't manipulate a finger-puppet. All I do is take a digital picture, crop it and/or resize it, then suck out the yellowness that the camera adds. The rest is all pencil work.

It is a bit fuzzy though, but alas, it was the best shot I could get with my camera. One day I'll buy a scanner...

Thanks for asking though.:salute:

When you are the moon, there is a person people say is the sun. I saw the sun once, and he came past me, really fast. And it was an, it was called, the, an eclipse. And he came fast! But as he came past, I, I licked his back...
:iconwesternlotus:
Don't be silly. You have your exams and all that other stuff. I've had this half-done for months until you motivated me off my lazy arse. So take your sweet time.
