Hey everyone! Forget about “when pigs fly” – in my studio, we’re talking about flying hippos! I’m back with another character mashup that might be my wildest yet. I was enjoying some tasty snacks during a movie night, and my brain started wandering to the absolute weirdest thing that could pop out of that bucket.
Mixing up a massive, land-dwelling animal like a hippo, giving it tiny wings, and then stuffing it into a striped container is exactly the kind of playful nonsense that makes me love doodling so much. I wanted this piece to feel cheerful, absurd, and just a little bit cozy. I really hope this unexpected flying movie buddy brings a laugh to your feed today.
What kind of ridiculous creature should I have bursting out of a fast-food meal next? Leave your craziest ideas in the comments below!
