You know what they say about payback? I don't say those kind of words. It looks like the payback is the birds strapped to the stick and the other birds from above flying overhead. I like the pattern of the shadows. I can't wait to see the music video!

Again wonderful detail but the angle of how you wanted to show this compostion is really good. Good choice of colour and shadow work here is nicely done. Good work as always

Comment from alaskapat


This one made me laugh! Now the birds are going to show those squirrels! They have teamed up with the mice, I love the positions of the mice on the birds backs and their tails are straight out behind them !this is of course, well drawn and with your usual awesome details and colors! Can't wait to see what happens next!

Comment from Patti C


I like the nice bright colors you use in your cartoons. I like the details you have on their backpacks. Also, I like all the shadows on the ground which are many and imply that I'm only seeing a small portion of the flight. Your composition is very nice also. Very nice

    You enjoy what you do and have fun, and isn?t that what it?s all about?

    Welllllllllllll..truth is I'm going for the money ... fun would be for a hobby. Nothing wrong with that..even though I have been working with sharpie and Bic pens for half century I didn't really get aggressive until my last child left home..now my idol and inspirational artist is Norman Rockwell. We have similar lives who worked all kinds of job's to support the family but always out there looking for that lucky break.. Norman didn't get is 1st break until he was 52. Even then the Saturday evening post almost didn't hire him cause he was considered to be a illustrator and not a artist.. comical huh? Well they gave him his break and the rest is history..he worked for them for the next 20 years to his death.. what's funny my oldest girl ask me one time "daddy are trying to get famous?".."no darling" I replied "daddy is just trying to get paid!". Wink..lol
Comment from John Kotalac


Super rad as always. Just don't know how the birds got the field mice on there side. Either they are super smart by keeping their enemies closer. They would have a better chance with the squirrels. Bring it to the ground for a little bit of trench war fair. But pretty smart of the birds they are like carrying a meal on there back. If they go down the birds can circle back later for a meal. Lol just saying. Awesome again and thanks John

    Oh wait till you see the next post..I'm almost finished with it ..that one will answer those questions..I will tell you this..the bird/mice team have been used by the bird king before..the raccoons were raiding the bird feeder and no matter how hard the birds try, those raccoons were not intimidated..let's say just say when this special force went into action you can bet those coons ran off screaming..so yeah..these squirrels won't know what hot them till to late. However, like any mission things can go unpredictable and sideways..can't wait for the see the next one..wink.. thanks for the great review

Another wonderful cartoon illustration, Mark, showing the colourful army flying high. I like the aerial view, showing their shadows. Excellent use of colours and detail. Great composition. Suzanne

Comment from cleo85


I know those squirrel will have a frightening and perhaps fatal surprise soon. I like especial how this drawing is composed in triangle featuresThe red bird in front followed by the blackbird and flanked by a blue and a yellow warrior really takes our interest. The shadows of the following army emphasizes the triangle and show that there are many birds are following their leaders. This captures your audience and makes them impatiently waiting, even as only those, who looked at each of your drawings know that the is something very dangerous hidden beneath the green below...

Comment from Susan F. M. T.


Mark.
A beautiful picture of the Mouse Army heading off into battle against the Squirrels on the backs of the Blue Jays, Cardinals Blackbirds & Oriels who will fly over the battle field & attack from above??? Created out of your vivid imagination, very skilful draftsmanship, beautiful choice, blending & application of your colours in bringing this scene to life. It's wonderful.
Susan
