Bamse Pigg

I was talking to my girlfriend on the phone two days ago, while sketching on a piece of scrap paper.
You know how those phone conversation doodles usually turns out, don't you? Often only symmetrical patterns, but every now and then I do rough sketches of characters. This one became really weird. I started to draw swedish comic book character Bamse as if he would have been designed like Mickey Mouse. And to my surprise it worked quite fine to blend the two. The character both looks familar and pretty wierd at the same time...

Coming up tomorrow: Two original strips by Fred Ray, with a (heavy) touch of inspiration from Noel Sickles.
