I finally had an idea, yesterday - much too late to start.
Congrats F&S -  nice character in that figure, and good little story to set up the limp!

Sliced my thumb real bad with gardening shears yesterday.  Lost a lot of animation time and blood   But, I should be able to finish this thing by the end of the night.

Please do!  It's embarassing to be the only one who entered a challenge.

With your entry, you have absolutely nothing to be embarrassed about. It's the rest of us, who didn't submit and (so far) let you be the only one to enter, who should be embarrassed.

A little late, but at least I got it done.  It's kind of hard to animate puppets without the use of a thumb.  Anyways, here we are!  I animated this whole thing last night/ this morning??? -- crazy.  I didn't have time to add eyebrows or a mouth to the Richard puppet. But, it works ok.  It was a nice exercise. Now, I sleep.

@MattChappell, nice work, though I don't understand what the first part had to do with the last part. But that's ok for now - get your sleep.
Hopefully we'll have more entries for the June Challenge, since all us students finish off this month at the latest. I know I'll definitely have more time to even consider entering.
