Please don't pick on Claymation.

What do you have against Gumby and Pokey?

3. My screenname comes from The Gumby Show

tridim = tridimensional animator (which I though was an interesting and creative credit title). Since I'm also a 3D animator, I thought it fit quite well. I only tried claymation once, never again. It's very hard and way too time consuming. I spent about three days on 30 seconds of animation.

6. Gumby was a Nazi sympathizer, Pokey had mob ties

Gumby sent donations directly to Hitler, and also sheltered some of the Nazi party's offshore holdings in a Cayman bank. If you look closely to some early Gumby shows, you can see the swastika tattoo on his back, which he later had removed, or rather, painted over with a green permanent marker.

Pokey once was found wasted in a dumpster in South Chicago. The dumpster was riddled with bullets, speculation being that it was an attempted mafia hit. Fortunately for Pokey, he was so high that he'd buried himself under the refuse and the bullets missed him.
