I still don't have a functioning scanner, but over the last couple of weeks, I have been thinking about the things happening across the pond, and I doodled these. They're just phone photos, so I hope they don't look too fuzzy.
I also hope that things improve massively and that the Tangerine Tyrant does not get to sit on his bloodstained throne for much longer. Stay strong, friends.
Another year, another New Year doodle! Believe it or not, this year marks ten years of Tiny Chump Adventures! Hopefully I'll be able to get my scanner talking to my computer again soon and really do the occasion justice. For now, please accept this phone camera photo as the Tiny Chumps raise a glass to 2026 and wish you all a year that, no matter how good (or not) 2025 was, 2026 will be so much better. Happy New Year!
The holiday season is a time for nostalgia, and for remembering those special childhood Christmas moments. Here are some extra-tiny Chumps at their school nativity, as a shepherd (in his mum’s dressing gown), a donkey (with his head off, so everyone can see who he is) and that traditional Nativity character, the… mouse?!
Bringing this old classic back for now. Hopefully I'll have a new one tomorrow if my computer behaves enough to let me scan it (pretty sure Santa won't be bringing me a new one), but just in case it doesn't, on behalf of the Tiny Chumps I wish you all a very merry Christmas.
All In A Good Cause!
If you've ever wanted to own a Wyvernchick Original, this piece is currently in a charity auction on eBay. All the auction pieces are inspired by the Welsh winter tradition of the Mary Lwyd, and they're all raising funds for charities that support victims of domestic violence.
If you'd rather have something three dimensional, I've also donated this crocheted Mari Lwyd. I'd love it if you took a look at my contributions, and the other fantastic things people have created.
The Tiny Chumps thought there was something strangely familiar about the three characters in the commercial for James' gin...
The Tiny Chumps are ready for their Halloween party. They decided to have a change from movie costumes this year, and instead are having an 80s theme party. James even fixed an old vacuum cleaner, because it's the only time Jeremy has ever voluntarily done the vacuuming.
They do, however, realise that their costumes are not as spooky as they have been in previous years (although Jeremy's Freddie costume is definitely a bit frightening), so to make up for it, they carved some Tiny Chumpkins for the party.
Richard Hammond made me do this.
The Buttons joke has reared its head again, and this time the short one actually got himself into the costume.
The thing is, one man does not make a pantomime, and you need more than just Buttons to perform Cinderella, and the Tiniest Chump decided that his friends should join in the fun. As you can see, James and Jeremy are absolutely delighted to be playing the Ugly Sisters at the Swindon Wyvern Theatre...
James is taking a break from the Tiny Chumps farm to go out in the footsteps (or should it be the wake?) of the great explorers, visiting places, holding talks, and telling his audience all about the Age of Discovery. He thought it was about time he lived up to his various "Captain" nicknames - fingers crossed it won't be "Captain Sense of Direction" though, or he'll never be seen again!
Down on the Tiny Chumps farm, new life is coming into the world again - this time, one of Jeremy's badly behaved dogs has had puppies, and he was on hand all the way through in case she needed help.
Richard and James are getting concerned that Jeremy is starting to take his role as the farm's animal midwife rather too seriously, and even the new doggy mum is a bit bemused by it all. Still, it could have been worse - it could have been a nun's habit.
It's been a busy bank holiday weekend on the TIny Chumps Farm. They decided to hold a traditional village fete with all the eccentric entertainments the British summer is famous for. They dusted off some old horse collars for a gurning competition, chased a cheese down a hill, and they planned to set up a "Splat the Rat" stall. Unfortunately, when they got the board out, they realised that the fake rats that players hit had gone missing (probably eaten by actual rats, which at least kept them away from the barley). However, Jeremy and James found a creative solution - though Richard is not convinced!
(On a personal note, I spent the weekend doodling these pictures, but I didn't think it was wholly appropriate to post them in the light of events in Liverpool yesterday. Fortunately, the alleged perpetrator has been arrested and charged, and everyone who was taken to hospital is heading in the right direction, and I wish them all a full and fast recovery)
Another doodle! I know, I'm spoiling you - they're like buses, nothing for ages and then two come along at once. And the Tiniest Chump is responsible for this one too...
Recently, two of the Big Chumps were playing about in a car in front of a camera and Richard told the person behind the camera that he and James had worked together before, as professional dancers. Of course, when someone says something like that I can't resist breaking out the markers!
(If anyone is wondering, the ballet company behind the photos I used as reference for this is all male, but they dance predominantly female roles in drag. I've seen them twice, and they are brilliant)
The Tiniest Chump has been on an adventure. He heard that his real world counterpart had been following in the footsteps of Lawrence of Arabia, and he couldn't resist giving it a go - so he's been through the desert on a camel with no name!
It's been a long night at the Tiny Chumps' pub, but they've finally called time on 2024 and wecomed in the new year with a bang.
Thank you everyone for all your support over the last year. It's been a bit of a tricky one for me at times and I've not been as productive as I'd have liked, but the Tiny Chumps aren't going anywhere if I can help it. Let's hope for lots of new adventures in 2025, and whether the old year was good, bad, or indifferent for you, I hope this one is better.
Happy New Year!
I'm a little late bringing you the Tiny Chumps' festive adventure this year, but that's because they've had a break from the farm and spent Christmas at Chumpitree Castle, their second home. This happens to be on the border with Wales, and they tell me that they couldn't get a decent phone signal to let me know what they'd been up to.
It turns out that they've been trying their hands at the Welsh winter tradition of the Mari Lwyd, with Jeremy carrying the spectral Grey Mare and Richard acting as the horse's groom. Normally, the Mari Lwyd goes door to door challenging people to what amounts to a rap battle in the Welsh language. None of the Tiny Chumps can speak Welsh, so James has reached a compromise and is reading some Dylan Thomas instead.
I hope you're all having a wonderful holiday season, whether you celebrate Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, anything else, or nothing at all. Happy holidays!
And because I'm spoiling you tonight, it's a Tiny Chumps double bill.
Last weekend they held a belated Bonfire Night display down on the Tiny Chumps Farm. Whilst James did all the pre-ignition checks and tried to ensure the event was safe and entertaining for all, Jeremy in particular decided to make things go with a bang.
(Although this was drawn last weekend, I didn't want to post something silly on Remembrance weekend because it didn't feel like the right thing to do, so it's now a bit late but I think that's OK)
Tonight was the BBC's annual charity fundraiser Children In Need, and having a bit more time on their hands now, the Tiny Chumps decided to undertake some sponsored events and raise some money for a good cause. Richard went on a sponsored walk, Jeremy was... encouraged... to do a sponsored silence.
As for James, he decided to spend the day in a bathtub full of Spam and beans. It's not clear whether this was a sponsored event or just a typical Friday for him.
The Tiny Chumps are celebrating Halloween with another trip to the movies. This year they're dressing up as the Sanderson Sisters, though being the Tiny Chumps, they had to put their own spin on it... so their version is not so much Disney's Hocus Pocus as Ford Focus Pocus!
I've actually been toying with the idea of this for quite some time and I never quite had a punchline for it until a couple of days ago. And, as usual, when it hit me, I couldn't believe it took me so long. So I hope you like this seasonal slice of silliness. Happy Halloween!
