There must be a story behind each Hybrid. How did the parents get together?... is a good question.

    2. My father used to say he was born with a tie. That the docter pulled him out of the womb by the tie! So that means that whatever he is, he is a gentleman.

    1. You obviously working in an office where they 'Goof off' Ted. That means you know something about the sneaky boss and his stealth like shoes.

  6. So very curious. I like him and the way you boxed him in. The bends and kinks in his legs are great!

    1. I box a lot of my stuff, dreams mainly,...but this time it seemed fitting to box a hybrid creature like he was on display in a museum or Zoo or something.

    2. The bends and things in the legs where a very loose copy of a horse skeleton I saw on the internet.
