Description I'm quite eager to see this movie.  I was a huge fan of Coraline (both the source and the movie), and enjoyed the heck out of Paranorman. 

I was looking over reviews of the movie and one noted the Boxtrolls themselves are named for the box they wear: Fish, Fragile, etc., and of course, the protagonist, the little boy, is Eggs.

Being immature at heart, I began giggling to myself about all the horrid box options out there that a troll might inadvertently choose to don.  And then I came up with this...







Original 6" x 9", Bristol smooth; Copic markers and white pencil for highlights.

His conception was an accident, too. :rimshot:

So... his name is Spartan? 

That would explain a lot.  It could be like that mean kitty song.

Thanks, Daniela!

I felt personally vindicated when I saw the movie on Saturday when I spotted the Boxtroll with a picture of women's bloomers on his box (made especially funny later when that same Boxtroll is wearing women's bloomers...).  So my weird little character could be equally valid...
