LEGO Cartoon 1 (#5961)

andertoons7 Comments

I’ve been looking for something different to create with my LEGOs as of late. Batman stuff and spaceships are fine and all, but I really wanted to try something more unique.

I don’t know why it took me so long to start digging into my cartoons, but here’s my first effort:

Here’s the cartoon it’s based on:

And here’s some close-ups:

BTW, that caption is actually engraved into that brick. Cool huh?

Here’s the LEGO specific AutoCAD I started with:

Anyway, I’ll be putting some more pics up over at Flickr in the next few days. Feel free to stop by and check it out.

Hope you like it! More to come soon!

Congrats to my favorite business blogger, Anita Campbell, for being chosen as Internet Marketing Report‘s Marketer of the Week!

Julie Power also interviews Anita:

JP – What is the one thing that a small business MUST have online to succeed?

AC – Perseverance. Many small businesses give up too soon. It’s easy to go out of business when you hit a rough patch, because the alternative — facing down the challenges — is so ugly and unpleasant.

Perseverance is especially important online, because it takes months (being wildly optimistic) or years to draw significant traffic and build an online brand today. There’s so much more competition on the Web.

So you have to be in it for the long haul – have a long term plan and work your plan everyday, even if sometimes you question whether you are making progress.

It’s stuff like that that keeps Small Business Trends at the top of my feed reader.

(BTW, Julie, did you know you’re a superhero?)
