If you had July in the “when does Megan finally go 'round the bend” pool, congratulations . I claimed @Bunny1kenobi’s “join the dark side” theme in the challenge chain and ended up reworking a page from an old Dollar Tree Disney coloring book I had around. Here’s the original page, featuring Pongo and Roger from 101 Dalmatians.
I replaced Pongo’s head with the head from one of the Lion King hyenas on another page of the coloring book. The hyena head is mounted on a bit of corrugated cardboard to make it pop out a little (as is the sentiment at the bottom). I don’t have a full narrative worked up for this, but in my mind Roger is some sort of mad scientist, hence the kind of radioactive cloud filling his lab. And, you know, the hyena-dog in his lap.
Here’s a close-up of their faces; I used little bits of drywall tape to give ol’ Dr. Rog some scarring. The things he’s created…
Thanks! I wish I could remember how I landed on this idea. I’ve been neck-deep in a really tedious, concentration-sucking work project, and working on this ended up being really relaxing.
I love the extra texture created by the drywall tape. What a great idea all around!

I am also fascinated now with altering coloring books…love the little details like the tape on the face and the replacement of the dog head…dark and fabulous…
