He doesn’t really fly, he imagines his doghouse is a plane, right? Or am I misremembering?

The derby is a great way to beat creative block- if you can, go for it! My trick on beating creative block is to use a style I haven’t tried. Sometimes doing something outside your comfort zone is enough to shake off the artistic blahs :smiley:
