Today’s Splicky Mission:
Drive a nail into the large branch.
Dear Fans
Excepting the graphics and visual effects, a lot of the quality in a Splicky Mission consists in what the mission is about. Once I have what the mission is about, ideas for how the splickies might fail at it follow fairly easily. ![]()
I believe this particular mission may have been a bit stronger in that sense than others, so far as the audience is able to see exactly how the splickies are failing. (This is always a concern for me: “Did I draw this object clearly enough? Is it too small for my clumsy pencil strokes to show the vital details? Have I hopelessly camouflaged any vital details among the distracting intricacies of the photographic background?”) ![]()
I’m afraid I’ve done this with the brown flame splic second from the left who bent his nail. But by the time I noticed it, it was too late for me to do anything about it… ![]()
If you can tell anyway though, never mind! Enjoy! ![]()
So, feel free to lemme know how you like this mission!
’Nuff said. ![]()

Too cute.
I could see that the splicky bent his nail.
Hee-hee. Oops is right, little red one. Just don't fall!
AWWWWW
Someone give the blue one a cookie.
*cuddles blue splicky*

Way to go!
They're wonderful, Quartz. The hammers, especially just look so real. Sometimes I have trouble knowing which things were in the photo, and which were drawn.
The welder seems confused. I'm not sure how welding could help him drive a nail. But at least he's enterprising! He melted his nail, though.
Thanks again, Quartz! This is such a wonderful way to use your talents!
I'm grateful to you guys, Foppy, Malex & Quartz, for providing MMN. It's such an uplifting example of what bright, Christian young people can accomplish when they don't poison their minds with negativity and anger.
Thank you to all the young people on this site who have chosen to be a light in this dark world! Oops, sorry. Maybe this should have been a separate post.

Gee
Well thank you very much, SangMing! I’m really glad we can make a difference…
Wow, really?
Thanks!
Great! Thank you very much, Aisling.

Along came a spider who sat down to chide her,
But he could think of nothing to say.
AWW!
Aw! I WANT the little teal one! He's my favorite color! He's SO cute! Poor little splic feels BAD!
I'll make him feel better! I WANT a little teal splic-Oh wait! I HAVE a little teal splic! *Hugs Quartz* Thank you again, Quartz for last years wonderful birthday present! 
(For those of you who don't know, I have a little stuffed toy splicky because Quartz went to great pains to make one for me for my birthday last year. His name is Randal, and he's the cutest little splic in town. )
lol

How exactly does one drive their HAMMER through a branch with a nail...?
*breaks his brain trying to comprehend the idea*
A lie would have no sense unless the truth were felt as dangerous.
*lol*
When one makes up for one's lack of expertise with determination…

That's too funny.
Especially considering that it wasn't until after all that time and determination that he stopped to realize what he had done.

"You're just jealous," said Deeba.

Splickies in my world
My world has been a happier place since the introduction of splickies.

I hadn't even realized that the blue one had put his hammer through the tree! That's too funny!

hm... Determination, Eh? *strokes non-existent beard*
... I'm gonna go try that now. *Walks off with a hammer and a nail*
A lie would have no sense unless the truth were felt as dangerous.
What have I done?
*lol*

He probably won't do much damage. Will he? Wait...Where's he going?
