SoMoMo 3: Pirates and Reindeer, Oh My!

 Monkeyville Has Been Invaded Again...

Thankfully, the only pirates that invade Monkeyville are nice, cuddly ones, not the Very Evil pointy ones.

Captain Longsocks, is all set to go to his new home!


He's made with the same kinds of socks as Captain Ellie, the pink pirate.


Unlike Ellie the Pirate, this one has an eye patch that's made entirely from felt.

I don't know if Pirates typically come with reindeer for companions, but this one did! Two in fact, Max and Olive.

Olive:
Why is the reindeer named Olive? Because of a TV special a few years ago (maybe a lot of years ago): "Olive the other reindeer".

Yes, I'm a dork.

Max:

Max is also named after a character in a Christmas movie, though this time a better known one. See, when I did the very first pair of antlers, they looked just like the ones that the Grinch ties on to Max the dog. Thus, in tribute to the amazing Dr. Seuss, it's Max the Reindeer!

Max and Olive are really similar. The main difference is the size of their tails and the color of their mouths. Max has a tan colored mouth, while Olive got into the lipstick and is sporting a bright red mouth.
