Sandy Posted July 12, 2011 I adore Eddie Izzard, and this is arguably one of his funniest jokes. I love how expressive you've made the otherwise simplistic giraffe. The mouth movements hit the speech spot-on, and that does a lot for the video. Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora Posted July 12, 2011 Drawn by the mention of Eddie Izzard on a LEGO site..... I love this! You have somehow made a giraffe actually look slightly evil (maybe the glowing red eyes, the dark horns and dark goatee) and the details of the tree moving and his tail swishing just add to the overall comic effect. I agree with Sandy, the mouth movements coordinate with the speech brilliantly. 36 seconds of pure joy. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peppermint_M Posted July 12, 2011 That was fantastic. I love watching Lego animations of Eddie Izzard stand up. That was a brilliant example Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hinckley Posted July 12, 2011 Where do you find time? Awesome job fallentomato. I have the utmost respect for Stop Motion Animators. I think your work is particularly skilled with a fun style about it that is very crisp in it's wit and humor. Thanks for sharing this with us and excellent work!

Pandora Posted July 13, 2011 I actually have a time-stealing machine which lets me take time from other people's lives so I can use it for my own nefarious purposes Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!!! Awesome. Is it built from LEGO and do you have instructions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bricks2000 Posted July 14, 2011 I actually have a time-stealing machine which lets me take time from other people's lives so I can use it for my own nefarious purposes Mwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!
