Why did the other ducks target one as the "ugly duckling?" Aren't ALL ducks ugly? Never in my life have I seen even one attractive duck. Fortunately I don't really look at them that way. If I ever see a duck that strikes me as "really hot," then I've got problems.
If you're familiar with the story, you already know that (spoiler warning) the "duckling" is actually a swan. I didn't draw him that way here... mine is more of a (spoiler warning) mallard. So apparently ducks aren't only ugly, they're also a little bit dumb and species-recognition-challeged. And that's the ugliest ugly there is.
The ugliest duck is an actual duck... unless he's a duckling, because baby everythings are at least a little bit cute, even if admitting that takes me one step closer to a problem area I noted previously.
the middle duck could almost pass as a zombie duck... that would make a great movie... Dawn of the Dead Ducks!
ReplyDeleteFunny picture! Those ducks are crazy!
ReplyDeleteI don't know about hot ducks, but Jessica Rabbit wasn't half bad.
ReplyDeleteNever in my life have I seen even one attractive duck.
ReplyDeleteAre you kidding me? What about Daisy Duck? She's totally smokin'. Well, I'm off to see my therapist.
(spoiler warning) Shane's nuts.
ReplyDeleteSweet ugly duck art :)
ReplyDeleteLovin' these designs, Shane! The colors as well. I love your take on the story haha. btw I'll have your link back up. I have a bunch I lost when I changed my template. No worries. I'm a horrible procrastinator.
ReplyDeletealways fun! Love how the guy on the end is pointing off screen. I almost choked laffing!!!
ReplyDeleteOh joy! I was so excited at first to see a new picture and then dread came over me because I realized you captured the "neighborhood bullies" of my childhood perfectly- Gary and Terry Thurber (stinkin’ brothers) and Butch Kingston. They use to chase me on my bike when I would collect for my paper route and put sticks in the spokes of my tires to make me flip over. So I guess if that was them I would be that poor ugly mallard. Oh well, I guess I'll turn into a swan? Was that the moral of the story?
ReplyDeleteYour drawing is great! I love the fat one to the right (I’ve named him Terry) and the one on the left’s eyes make me happy (he’s Gary BTW). I always love reading your train-of-thoughts! Wacky and fun.
I love your blog shane, and I love this piece here.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoy how ugly these things are. Great variation on a theme, and with the same unifying style. You have fun designs, Shane. How goes working at Avalanche? Sp?
