Life: the cereal, board game, and waste of time.

My dad was a graphic artist. He was always drawing. I started out drawing a lot as a kid, but quickly realized I wasn't any good at it. So I stopped. I took up music instead. I'm not that great at music either, but I'm much better at music than art. Still, even when you suck at something, if it brings you joy, you find yourself doing it when there's nothing else to do. So I draw constantly. Its usually the same old stupid stick figures blowing things up, but it doesn't stop me. The only advantage to constantly drawing is sometimes you get these brief story ideas. Things that spark a scene or short film. Sometimes they develop into something good. But often, they're just quick gags like this one. I thought it would be funny to have some sort of do-gooder superhero type find a guy that's cold, and attempt to use his flame thrower to heat him up. Of course, the idea of a super power is funny in normal life, because you rarely need a "super" power. Regular 12 volt power would be just fine. But what's the point of having a flame thrower arm if you can't use it. My flame thrower arm is built in maya. The flames/snow/breath etc are done in After effects. I did all this in about an hour on a very sunny hot afternoon in my backyard.
