Baseball Squid lived for the crack of the bat. He loved the sensation of soaring through the air and the roar of the crowd when he was a homerun. But despite his happiness, he was never quite content. He always wanted to be the one to hit a homerun. He found a baseball keychain, started practicing, and went up to the plate to show them he could hit one out of the park.

Lovely.

Thank you!

I particularly like the framing on this :)

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Thanks! I wasn't sure if it would work. I was holding the blank gessobord square crooked, and thought, hey, looks like a baseball diamond! Perfect!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Yay baseball!

. . . Does he have eyeblack on? I love it! XD

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

He sure does!

LOOKS MOAR LIEK AN OCTOPUSS

Yes, it's debatable. Sometimes I have to make the tough call instead of calling it "Vague Baseball Cephalopod." Especially with sports-equipment-shaped cephalopods. Tricky buggers.

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

I think "Vague Baseball Cephalopod" sounds cool!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

I will consider naming the next sports squishy something along those lines. :D

Best image done by human EVER! :D

Wow, thanks!

Of course, Da Vinci Squid and Van Gogh Ocotpus are my inspiration.

HICHYA!

badoop badoo!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Hmm...

...what?

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

homerun...

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Ahh. Gotcha.

Exactly. ;)

For some reason your squid-pics always bring little phrases to my mind, and in this case it's a definite "Why I oughta..!"

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Heheh, 50's bully baseballer! Mafia squid! 3 Squoodges!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Hahaha how cute. Really nice. I love the frama too.

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Thanks! It's on wood-cradled board. A friend suggested I cut in half those little souvenier bats and glue them to the wood. Great idea, but it would end badly, with my fingers on the floor. ;\

This reminds me of startropics (a classic NES game) because it looks simmilar to one of the enemies, that the baseball bat was really good at killing,,,, and now one is back for revenge.

Hehe, cool! Cephalopod boss zombies!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Reminds me of the baseball in the movie 'Everyone's Hero'... he wanted to be a home run ball :)

Take me out to the squidgame...

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

:D

I'd never heard of that movie - not sure how I missed it! I love the little baseball wearing the bow.

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

It's an adorable movie :D The baseball's name is Screwy, btw ;)

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Awww, Screwy!!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

You can do it, baseball squid! I believe in you! :D

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Rah rah!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Go Baseball Squid! Do it for poor little Timmy Cuddlefish!

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

:o Pressure's on now! :D

It looks like something you would see on a pack of big league chew. I have many fond memories of seeing how much of that gum would fit in my mouth at once.

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Oh yeah, that stuff rocked! Do they still sell it?

And could you blow bubbles bigger than your head?

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

The composition is fantastic. Not that I didn't love your octopi already.

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Thanks! I think the diamond-orientation of the square worked out nicely. I wasn't sure it would, composition-wise.

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

It pays to have all those legs, easier to get to the bases. ;)

( No Subject ) Posted: 4 years ago

Unless you trip... I would.
