Working on the Bad Mouse Problem.

Need to know, the 3 finished ones enough or do I need another mouse or 2?
Please leave your opinion.
Also any other changes that would make it funnier. The leaning mouse is holding a tire iron, it didn't photograph well.

Thanks,
Doug

Ahh so a martial arts mouse... a KungFu mouse.
Liking it any more? And how many mice?
The other 3 mice are mounted in position.

Thanks again, keep em coming,
Doug

I think it nees a punk rock mouse with a mohawk. A mobster mouse in a pinstripe suit and a violin case would also be fun. Fun idea,
Dan

Hey Doug, Is the mouse with the yellow shirt holding a pistol? Too funny. I missed that in the first look.

Hi all,

Dan love the mobster mouse and punk rocker mouse ideas, already drew em up. Also scetched Wanda's KungFu Mouse, don't think the trap will fit though.

CREID been listening to that song while I was carving on them, too wierd!

thanks Curt, still looks a little empty to me though.

Wanda yep he has the gangsta sideways pistol, bling and boxers showing.

Anymore ideas? How many more do I need, was just thinking of one reclining on the box top. But don't know what he should be.

Thanks for all the great ideas, keep em coming,
Doug

How about a "toes up" dead mouse lying on his back, right dead center of the scene?

Would need to know more about just what you're trying to express. One thing I would do is to make the Poison box as detailed and realistic as possible as that is what will carry the scene. If I'm correct I think there is a punch out on the box to allow the poison to flow out...that would also create a lot of humor. At least 2 more mice!

Don't forget...you ask!!!
