In honor of the July 1st launch of TimeSlingers.com, I thought I’d put up this bit of sort-of-concept art. I had done it while just trying to think of illustration ideas for one of the episodes, though I wasn’t really planning on using it for that one.
It did, however, form the basis for the illustration of another episode… you’ll have to keep an eye out for it.

As the Philosopher once said:
“Even the panda, being but a beast of small stature when lying in the mud, has every recourse to take up arms against those oppressive forces of human nature—greed, jealousy, and verisimilitude—and strike a blow for the preponderance of earthly denizens foraging out their days in the wilderness of lonely hope.”
