TEETH!

by Afke

Weeeeell, if I'm uploading animal pictures anyway, I might as well post this one. It's a very tiny picture I made during a dicebased RPG in 2002, in which some characters from different holts formed a group. Imke was playing Droombes (dreamberry) from Staartjager Vallei.

Every time we'd hunt or found stuff, we'd have to mention what we'd take with us, and Droombes was collecting teeth. She became really fanatic, 'till at some point when we'd hunt and the animal wasn't even dead yet, she'd already claim the teeth.
The climax came when we encountered boars and in stead of deliberating, Droombes ran towards them screaming "Pretty curly teeth, I don't have those yet!" And then this image was born.

Since Uderzo already had plenty of experience with drawing frightened boars for the comic Asterix, I've used one of his many drawings as an example.

Haha, cool! Aww, Uderzo's boars were always so cute, that I felt really sorry for them. Love this little sketch here, so full of fun and energy.

haha, you should make a variation of this for the animals-of-Abode- challenge! Somehow I don't think there'll be many wild boars among the entries :P

I recently showed this picture to my nibling during a conversation we had while playing some D&D, having a quite similar situation but with goblin eyeballs (better not to ask). Glad I still had it stashed somewhere!
Anyway, the joke almost flew past them, because all they could say was, after seeing the year written on the picture, was that "I wasn't even alive yet back then..." :D

I think it's just funny to see their faces when they realise their parents (and other adults they know) had a whole other life before, that they don't know anything about, and then catch a glimpse of it. ;D
