Super designers Shannon Tindle & Shane Prigmore were doing a guest lecture at Cal Arts and they asked me if I would participate in the assignment. They asked the class to create Scrooge, Jacob Marley, and Tiny Tim from "A Christmas Carol." Here's my version. This would definately be the worst performance of the story ever! HA!HA!
I LOVE YOU. Well, you know what I mean.

Thanks ya'll! By the way the Probe Droid is the ghost of the one Han Solo shot. He, of course, couldn't actually talk like Marley, but would just utter his "omina..omina..omina..." robotic sounds. It was a challenge trying to put eyes on the Falcon so I just opted for stupidity and slapped them on the front. Hardy-Har-Har!
ReplyDeleteHey Bitch!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for doing the assignment. I was laughing so hard dude!! The class LOVED it!!! A Probe Droid is a PERFECT Marley's ghost!! aWSOME DUDE!
