Monsters!

[bunn]

Here are some utterly marvelous monsters. I was going to leave the book open at the very miffed elephant-headed gentleman but I've lost him now, so here is a poor thing that is quite obviously just about to fall over *because it has no front legs*.

He knows that this is about to happen, and has given up complaining: instead he is just crossing his arms and waiting for the inevitable collapse. I suspect afterwards he will say 'I told you so'.

Yes, there is an expression of resigned pain on that face, and you could imagine a little bubble with the word 'Tim-ber!' above his head...
