My plan is to update every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but a little extra content never hurt anyone 😉
Here’s some Tuesday art for you. Developing a good way of drawing BuNSOn wasn’t automatic, and I’m sure his shape will continue to mature. Here are two pages of concept sketches as I honed in on BuNSOn’s look. There are many more pages – but I won’t make you endure all of them.

Bunson: And don’t forget Bunnies!
I’ve been struggling to clean up scans to make you some more animated giffs. My brain has not been awesome enough to succeed now that I don’t have a working copy of photoshop. I ended up drawing this in a free downloadable app… only it doesn’t export as a giff the way I assumed it does… so assume it’s a looping giff, cause otherwise the end message will make no sense!
And it’s quite possible the recommended links will be random heat exhaustion vlogs from my first trip to America years ago (YEARS I TELL YOU YEARS). The sound quality is terrible, and I’m sure I don’t make sense and possibly say terrible things/don’t make sense. I don’t recommend you watch them. I’m just too technology fatigued to lock them all away as private!

This comic makes very little sense to my sweetheart. But if you have a squidy brain like mine it might make sense to you.
Related comics – or what’s the deal with the geometrical shapes?
Bunson Hoppydew is behind one of the Thing 1 with a blue triangle shape on his head.
Thing 1: Have you seen my feelings?
Thing 2: Yes!
Bunson has hopped out to sit between the two Things. Thing 1 looks sad.
Thing 1: Those are my feelings!
Bunson: really?
Thing 1 looks angry. The triangle on Bunson’s head has turned into a square.
Thing 1: Yes
Bunson: oh
The square on Bunson’s head has turned into a circle. The two Things stare out towards the viewer. Bunson smiles.
Bunson: Thanks!
