Octo worked on tonight's Family Guy!

Tonight's Family Guy season premiere has Brian and Stewey travelling between different dimensions, including a stop-motion sequence in the Robot Chicken universe. It's only about thirty seconds, but the walls and stairs and wall art were assembled by my own grubby fingers. Nine o'clock on Fox!

Chris will not have tentacles. This picture is just a moment of screwing around.

Great stuff! I saw this in your portfolio but I didn't get to see a closeup of the facial modeling. Really good. I love when somebody has to figure out what a cartoon drawing would actually be shaped like in 3D.

Even though (to return to a very old ongoing argument) it's usually impossible; Snoopy's eyes both on the same side of his nose in 3/4 view; Bart's disappearing eyeball in 3/4 back view; Mike Doonesbury's nose etc.

Which (to be clear) makes the sculptor's work (i.e. your work) all the more creative and impressive.

That's an action figure! Sorry, not the work of me or mine. Since FG is parodying Robot Chicken, the puppets are action figures augmented for motion. The Chris torso was lying around in between stages and I stuck those tentacles in there and took a picture for goofs.

Wish I could take credit, as they really did do the difficult figuring out you mention.
