Really just me fiddling with my wacom tablet for 40 minutes or so (when I should have actually been working)… the original idea came from my sketchbook under the category - What did the ‘Wizard of Oz’ characters do after Dorothy went back to Kansas. overall I’m pleased with this, I like ‘the whole caught at work concept’, I also like how even though he now has a heart the Tinman is stuck with a job that puts him in a dark(ish) room, apparently mixing dangerous chemicals.
