Andy Capp Figurine
England's favorite alcoholic wife-beater, Andy Capp - immortalized in resin! What a great sculpt - they even did the later, more appealing version of the character. The booze-flushed nose and the clear pint glass are awesome touches, although the cigarette is gone!

My Muppet Personality Test
| You Are Gonzo the Great |
"Is something burning in here? Oh, it's just me." You're a total nutball who will do anything for attention. The first to take a dare, you'll pull almost any stunt. You're one weird looking creature, but your chickens don't mind! |

CBC Interview with Matt Forsythe
Matt Forsythe was recently interviewed on CBC Montreal, and he has since posted an MP3 of this interview to his website. It’s a fascinating look into Matt’s work and his comic Ojingogo. Definitely worth a listen.
Self-Publishing
An interesting article on self-publishing, care of CBC’s Street Cents. Quite a few Canadian authors and artists — including Halifax-based Hope Larson — discuss their thoughts and experiences on self-publishing. Considering that we were fully prepared to self-publish the first Flight anthology at one point (before we were approached by Image Comics), this is an article that will probably be useful to other writers or artists interested in pursuing a similar sort of path.
Mr. Bird
A very nice interview with Pixar's Brad Bird, click here to listen.

Puppet Building
Go here to see the new puppet in action!
I had fun designing this guy, and I'm having a blast practicing with him.
Final construction done by the talented Jarrod Boutcher.

Richard Rosenman's Kraft Dinner commercial is absolutely great and made in Canada!
It's nice to see more non-motion-captured, cartoony-3D-animation on television.
Click here to see the commercial.
