Here's a link to a timelapse drawing video for this cartoon!
If you watch the timelapse videos, let me know in comments if you think they're generally a good length, or if you'd like them to be shorter or longer. I can pretty much make them any length; it's just trying to find a balance between going slow enough so people can see and enjoy the process, and going fast enough to avoid it being boring.
I don’t have a cartoon syndicate and I’m not in newspapers. But I get to do this for a living because lots of readers support my Patreon with mostly small pledges! I also have prints and books for sale.
TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON
This cartoon has four panels, each of which shows two characters on a sidewalk. One is a man in a yellow polo shirt, the other a woman in a striped tank top.
PANEL 1
MAN: Why do you liberals make everything so personal? I know folks whose own kids have cut them off because they voted for Trump!
PANEL 2
The woman has stopped to face the man, and is listening with a little smile. The man is smiling and talking, but his face has begun to fall off, like a mask.
MAN: Sure, we've got political disagreements. But we shouldn't let them stop us from being friends, right?"
PANEL 3
The man's face falls off, and under it is a monstrous, open-mouthed creature. His speech balloon has a creepy, intense font. The man's human face, still visible as it falls, is laughing.
MAN (monster face): Black illegals eating our dogs get out trannies are pedos fuck voting rights Sieg Heil
MAN (fallen face): Oops! Ha ha!
PANEL 4
The man pushes his face back into place. The woman is in shock, eyes wide and hands over mouth.
MAN: Anyhow, let's not let politics come between us.
CHICKEN FAT WATCH
"Chicken fat" is unimportant details slipped into the art for fun.
Panel 1: Mickey Mouse, drawn in the style of "Steamboat Willie," the first Mickey Mouse cartoon, is emerging from a hole in the ground, holding up a note that says "public domain ha ha!"
Panel 2: A gravestone in the background has "Floppy Disks 1971-2011" inscribed on it.
Tattoos: The woman has a tattoo on her bicep. In panel 1, it's a tattoo of a nut (like at a hardware store). In panel 2, it's a tattoo of a nut (a peanut). In panel 4, it's a tattoo of Jerry Lewis as "The Nutty Professor."
