monster animals, bugs and plants





Sometimes i have to design some monster versions of regular, everyday things . . .
bunnies . . . toucans . . . catapillars . . . oh, and also grub-eating fanged plants . . . you know the kind you find at home depot in the back of the nursery section.
enjoy!
:)


all the best,

I LOVE these creepy things! ...I think I've seen those grub eating fanged plants at home depot, I should pick some of those up...

...or in a particular comic with a red-caped bear and a little green alien...

Hey - how come killer robots, creepy rabbits and psycho toucans have sharp teeth, but the I'm-waiting-under-your-bed-until-your-parents-leave-the-room-then-I'll-eat-your-brain clown doesn't??

Maybe it's to lull the kiddies into a false sense of security...

That caterpillar is one of the oldest Juniper pieces, but still one of my favorites.

Awesome characters! I really like the "caterpillar" and the "rabbit", but they're all good.

hey thanks everyone!
you know, nate is right, the caterpillar was one of the first designs for Juniper,yet it seems to connect with everyone . . . hmmm, i wonder what kind of butterfly it would turn into?
:)

anyway, thanks all for stopping by and for the kind words.

all the best,
