Marmaduke Mallard

MacPaperson O'Drake

Could anybody print this out and ink it for me?

Thank you,
Sim
Sorry with the delay, Sim, but I have made some homework and still need to do more for a exam. But I will atleast try to make them before Sunday - and I must say I really like the design of Marmaduke Mallard!

By the way, great drawings Hidde and Alex-Duck, looking forward to see more!

I managed to get them done at night as I really wanted to draw and finish them as soon as possible, because it's fun :). Hope you like 'em! By the way - as you can see I drew the whole character of Marmaduke Mallard, so you can edit and cut it if you like (you can do that with the others also).

I'm glad you like 'em, Sim :). And sure you can - if you can find 'em, i'm not sure what page they'r on. But if you want to wait a day or two I can make updated versions of them so they match the others.

Not really my art, but I was playing around with images and created this.

ESCAPED GORILLA ATTACKS DUCK (Daily Quack headlines, December 24, 1942)
Burbank - Yesterday a gorilla escaped from the Burbank zoo. How this was possible is still being investigated, but some say they saw A. Bones sneaking away from the zoo moments before the gorilla escaped. He then went for a stroll through down town, where he ran into local resident Donald Duck and his nephews. The children weren't harmed, but unfortunately the same can't be said for Mr. Duck. Afraid of the gorilla, Mr. Duck had climbed on a tree branch above the crocodile pool. The gorilla broke off the branch, but fortunately Mr. Duck was saved by his nephews. Not much later, Mr. Duck lost his temper and started a fight with the gorilla. "A very stupid thing to do," a zoo keeper added, "Mr. Duck easily could've been killed. He was extremely lucky to get away with only minor injuries." The fire department soon arrived and saved Mr. Duck from the gorilla, who was then locked up again, and Mr. Duck returned home. Later that same day, he was hospitalized for unknown causes.

THE VICTIM SHORTLY BEFORE THE ATTACK

Quote from user: QuackbergHere you go Sim - one idea how Flintheart Glomgold's parents could look like.

Mr. Buckshot Glomgold and Lady...?

Quote from user: QuackbergTo be honest I'm not quite sure of the names as I have been changing them many times as I'm never quite satisfied with them. The only thing we know about them is from Carl Bark's story "The Money Champ" which seem to show that Flintheart's mother was a kind and honset person. I could try to figure something new out, but you could use Buckshot if you want. Perhaps you have some ideas of your own?
Your names were Buckshot/Goldrush and Honeysuckle Rosemallow. You also provided a name for Slackjaw's father: Shuteye.

I would say "Crabsterford "Crabby" B. Glomgold" for the father and "Rosalinda Rosemallow Artz" for the mother. "Shuteye Snorehead" sounds good, may "Stapperhole Snorehead" sounds better?

Quote from user: QuackbergYeah, I remember those - I do think Shuteye is a good one as it's starts with "S" and has a connection to Slackjaw Snorehead's name, but Stapperhole sounds good to, does it mean something? Crabsterford sounds interesting and so does the mother's name with the connection with roses.
I completely invented the name Stapperhole, but it seems that "stapper" means "shoe" in Dutch. May do Snorehead have Dutch ancestors too?

I'm glad you like the name Crabsterford. It is apparently a mix of various Duck relatives' names, such as Grabfaster McDuck and Crabstone Gander and the real name of Bogey McDivot. Speaking of Bogey, John Lustig and I are working together to define his relation to Scrooge and Flinty.

The surname of the mother, Artz, is a reference to a great Dutch (Boer in our case) artist; our McDuck Menu.
