Mammals with fezzes


A selection of mammals with fezzes. Hard to figure which question should be answered first: what is the proper plural of 'fez' (we went with the obvious 'fezzes') or what the hell is the little chap on the bottom right corner? He looks like the rather confused offspring of Serge Gainsbourg and a chinchilla; but then again who doesn't?

Rat and dog


Not a brutally honest pub name, but a rather poignant moment where friendship begins. Either that or the moment before the dog gobbles up the rat, hard to tell.

Monks!


Monks! Not a single monk, not a couple of monks or even a few monks. Loads of monks! Everywhere! Bearded, clean shaven, hairy, bald, pretty, ugly, happy, grumpy... Monks! You know what they say: a thousand monks, a thousand typewriters, etc.

French Interwar gentlemen, pt.5


And here is the rest. Notice the universal presence of facial hair, an almost certain indication that all people in this particular tableau are men or expertly shaved bears (in which case they could be ladies). Hard to tell.

French Interwar gentlemen, pt.4


Well... this only confirms the two theories proposed in the last post. Namely: 'the chaps in these posts seem to be going up in age range' and 'the balder the hairier'. Glad that's settled then.

French Interwar gentlemen, pt.3


We seem to be going up the age range, clearly for no apparent reason. Still, one has to admire how someone so hairy can to be bald as well. Maybe there was an obligatory amount of hair a man had to maintain back in 1930's western Europe; so the more hair they lost, the longer their beards had to be (unless they had very hairy backs, of course).

French Interwar gentlemen, pt.2

Another reliable person. A bit more squat, solid moustache - an industrialist perhaps. Top marks all round.

French Interwar gentlemen, pt.1

A particularly serene member of the 1930's upper classes. Probably thinking about shooting a small animal later; perhaps about having some pants made out of tweed or some other sort of itchy but appropriately uncomfortable material. Maybe shooting a small animal whilst being fitted for said pants.

The polar bear variations - 5


Who wouldn't be slightly puzzled to - after trekking for days in the blinding polar wilderness - find a polar bear coming out of a giant gift box?

The polar bear variations - 4


Pretty sure the bear is too fat to move quickly enough to get to the seal and eat it. He didn't get that fat just eating polar lettuce, though, so I'd watch out if I were the seal.

The polar bear variations - 3


Big bear, little flower pot, rather large flower.Pretty sure that flower wouldn't fit that pot. That's why not that many polar bears are gardeners. Or florists, for that matter.

The polar bear variations - 2


They're both enjoying some soft drinks. Big cups; and what with polar bears not being small we can only assume the beverages were purchased somewhere in the USA.

The polar bear variations - 1


Look! Two polar bears. They're having a chat. The one on the left has a massive nose. Maybe the one on the right just knows the most flattering angle to be drawn from.

Short kakapo story, part 3


The kakapo gives his new kiwi/chicken/walking aubergine friend a ride. All is good.

Short kakapo story, part 2


He bumps into a small bird. I'm guessing either a kiwi or a chicken with some serious development issues.

Short Kakapo story, part 1


Another rubbish attempt to create a story out of three completely unrelated drawings. Here comes a Kakapo down the road.
