Description Just an experiment. I've seen stuff like this on DA before so I thought I might have a go. It's Stan, Sheryl and Lonnie the crows translated into human terms. No prizes for guesing who's who!

A completley out-of-the-blue random idea.

Hey, I had a neat idea. Why don't you write an actual story with them as humans? Kind of like an alternate universe, or something, like a 'What If?' It could have them doing what they normally do- hanging out at the pub, etc. (Maybe Stan could still even be raiding Giles' corn.) And throughout the story, the auidence would be confused- "Hey, why are they humans in this issue?" And maybe at the end, it could have Stan (the real crow Stan) wake up and find it all to have been a weird dream.

It's not a bad idea y'know. It could start of as a dream come true but later turn out to be a nightmare for them when they realise they have to deal with jobs, tax, insurance and other boring human things!

That's a great idea too, but I'm thinking that would kinda take away from the whole "Huh?!" value for both the reader- and Stan, at the end- than if they were to just go about their lives naturally. Maybe they could actually deal with all that horrible human stuff throughout the story, like it was totally natural, and then have Stan wake up in a cold sweat at the end. (Or is that what you meant?)

That's the idea. Could start off with him wondering how great it would be to be human, to be taken seriosly etc. - then he has the dream and realises it ain't so great. Then he begins to respect the farmer a bit more. A bit.

Hey, sweet! They look awesome as people! Very beleivable! I like how you made Stan with a typical cartoony long, pointy nose to compensate for his beak.

He also look vaguely like me or my dad. Or a Rowan Atkinson/Tony Robinson hybrid.

Does this mean you're gonna draw the farmer as a crow next?
