Zippy the Fly Hornet

Zippy the Fly Hornet is a character I made up when I was a kid. I guess I might have been about five or six. I saw Mickey Mouse, Mighty Mouse, and Bugs Bunny. I thought: "I want to draw and make my own toons." And so, that's what I did. I made up a character that was a fly. I thought: No one has ever done a famous character about a fly." We had enough mouse characters already. Mickey Mouse, Mighty Mouse, Jerry Mouse (Tom and Jerry), and Speedy Gonzales. All of them were successful.

 I decided to create a fly. I don't think I have that original drawing anymore. So now I am living in a day and time I can create things differently and a whole lot faster. But I still love to draw by hand and use my mind from stratch. But when I use a tool like AI, it makes me curious how my ideas look.

So here is Zippy the Fly Hornet. Some of it is AI and some of it is made by hand. Like I said, I still love to draw because AI doesn’t always give me everything I imagine. Listen to the story below..
