Okay, I cheated and Googled strick. And this is a strick of flax. More or less. And here is where I reveal I can't really draw anything based on reality. That's why I prefer monsters with mitten hands and sock feet.
What's this?
- What's this?Just some doodles. I am using the word of the day from the Oxford English Dictionary for a little motivation and inspiration to doodle everyday. The WOTD is emailed every evening, I doodle it the next day at work during my breaks and scan it in when I get home. I use scrap paper from around the office - usually quartered copier paper - and a pencil.

Humanization
The humans are dead.
Apparently, humanization also refers to adding water and sugar to cows milk to make it more similar to human milk. Weird.
Mazama
Mazama is the generic name for deer and ruminants in North America. But specifically refers to the Rocky Mountain Goat. Coolest Goat EVER!

It is Sirius, the dog star.
Robe
Looks more like a Jedi robe than a king's robe. Oh well.
Tin-hat
Tin hat means drunk!
Sip
Big time fail. That summer entomology class did not teach me to draw bees. And I have credit Timmy with the zombie idea, which was great, though he can't be blamed for the poor execution.

Shrunk (2nd try)
A second attempt.
This head is shrunk.
I just found out today that they take the skull out when they shrink heads. I mean, of course they do! But until now I just kinda wondered how they shrunk the skull. Duh.
Shrunk (1st try)
Today is a two-fer. This one is a dud.
Yeah, at first I thought, haha, a drunk skunk. Then I did the math and that doesn't really work, so I gave it another try.

Mushroom (v)
Goin' mushrooming.
I tried to make this less phallic, but it just wasn't happening. Also the guy on the left looks like he has vaginas for eyes. Also not intentional.
