My entry for Artist Militia’s February topic, Animated Character. Be sure to watch for everyone else’s as they’re added throughout the month.

Here’s my entry for this month’s Artist Militia topic. Be sure to check out the group album throughout January for everyone else’s entries.

More Morbidity:

• Chelsea: Volcanism
• Josiah: Attention to Detail

For more geographical rivalry, see the following:

• Josiah: More Penguins
• Lisa: Even More Penguins
• Caleb: Ironclads-sans-penguin

The concept for this actually came out of the fact that, up until last night, I couldn’t decide which character to go with.

Anyway, see below for more flying-inspired creations.

• Caleb: Coming Soon
• Josiah: Idiomatic Interpretation
• Lisa: Mixed Media

• Caleb: The Sucking Squid
• Josiah: Obvious Plagiarism
• Lisa: King Bats!

More visualizations related to areas of dubious rainfall:

• Caleb: The Sandbender
• Josiah: Apocryphal Events
• Lisa: That Other Giant Lion

More Abrams-related nonsense:

• Caleb: Abrams + Webber + Filoni =
• Jay: Literally
• Josiah: A Tale of Two Spocks

More Feline Fiendishness:

• Caleb: Quantum Mechanics of Doom
• Josiah: Inadvisable Playthings
• Lisa: Blind Vengeance

This topic’s sparse contributors:

• Caleb: Lady in the Closet
• Josiah: Narrative Glass
